“I heard from my friend’s son–he works at the plantation warehouse. Yesterday, Mr. Scott had a young girl with him. She even followed him around while he was checking the stock!”

“Yeah, I saw her too! She’s really pretty, and she even snapped a picture with him!”

“Seriously? Doesn’t Mr. Scott adore Gloria? Aren’t they supposed to be the perfect couple?”

“Who knows? They’ve been married for years. Honestly, a young, fresh girl is probably more exciting than someone older like

Gloria!”

The crowd buzzed with whispers. Just as Richard was about to say something, Gloria’s sharp gaze landed on Cassia standing beside him.

“So it’s you?”

Oh, this is gonna be good!”

Draven set the freshly grilled beef skewers onto a platter by the grill and stood up.

Even knowing it was just rumors, Seven couldn’t help feeling nervous for Cassia.

She really had no luck–she hadn’t done anything wrong, yet here she was, caught in the middle of all the gossip, judged and whispered about by everyone, and completely misunderstood by Gloria.

Just as everyone expected Gloria to walk up and start a showdown, she suddenly grabbed both of Cassia’s hands and shook them excitedly up and down.

Chapter 548 Meeting Her Idol

“Oh my gosh, Richard didn’t lie to me–I finally get to meet you in person!”

Her expression and posture were exactly like a fan meeting her idol.

Everyone was stunned..

Mia and Seven were also dumbfonded.

Draven stopped in his tracks. “Oh?”

Just a moment ago, Gloria looked like she was holding back her anger. What was going on now?

This turn of events completely stunned everyone present–it was like getting slapped in the face.

“Uh… what just happened? Wasn’t this supposed to be the wife versus the mistress? What is Gloría doing?”

“No idea. I don’t get it at all!”

“Did Gloria lose it because she couldn’t accept her husband cheating?”

Mia stood frozen.

What… what was happening? Her husband was supposedly cheating, so why did Gloria look so happy and excited?

Richard finally spoke. “Gloria, haven’t you always admired Boss? Last time I went to the tech park with her to buy Al equipment, you complained you were too busy to come along. I wanted to use this chance to make it up to you.”

As he spoke, he pulled out the photo he had asked Leslie in the control room to take yesterday and handed it to her.

‘You’ve been working hard managing the company for me every day. I thought I’d take a picture of her for you.”

He had planned to surprise his wife when he got back to Vrastin, but he didn’t expect her to travel all this way overnight instead.

Gloria took the photo, smiling as she studied it for a long moment. Then she pressed it to her chest and bounced lightly on her toes a few times.

“Honey, seriously–why didn’t you tell me sooner? If I’d known, I would’ve come with you, no matter how busy I was.”

Gloria knew that Cassia had helped her husband marry her, so she had always been deeply grateful.

Later, she attended the Global Elite Summit on behalf of the Laurents. There, under bright stage lights and in front of top business elites from around the world, she saw a masked girl speaking with confidence, promoting her products and ideas.

That girl’s mystery, confidence, brilliance–and the way she handled deliberate challenges from certain people with sharp wit- captured all her attention.

Judging by her voice, the girl seemed to be only a teenager. Yet among a crowd of middle–aged men in suits with bulging bellies, she stood out in a way no one could ignore.

At that time, Gloria was already in her thirties and had achieved many impressive things, but none of them had brought her onto that global stage. And that masked girl had done it while still in her teens.

She froze for a moment. Then she really looked at Cassia–and it hit her, this girl was something else. Not just a business prodigy, but someone who clearly had a whole world of power and influence moving behind the scenes.
