Chapter 2720
Phoebe's legs were shaking. Her lips were trembling like mad as well. However, she had no choice and had to answer Kingston's question, "M-Mister Yates, welL.Mister Yates, Eevonne...how can she possibly be your wife?
"She...she's a liar, she has lied to our company. Her highest education level is only middle school, she even deceived my boyfriend's feelings in the past, she also tricked my boyfriend's family's money, she even sold her former company's confidential information. She—" 1
"Bullshit!" Kingston suddenly slammed the table and stood up.
Phoebe was so frightened that tears were welling up in her eyes but she did not dare to let them stream down her cheeks.
"I...I'm sorry...I'm sorry, Mister Yates. I...d-don't know that she is your...wife. When...did y-you get married?" she stammered.
How could this be possible? Phoebe was not alone. Nobody among the people present could believe that Eevonne was Kingston's wife.
After all, being one of the five managing directors of the Ford Group, if Kingston were to get married, it would not have caused a sensation in the entire city, but it would still cause a sensation in the entire Ford Group, would it not? However, there was no news about it at all. Even if Kingston were to get married in secret, should Kingston's wife not be a socialite from South City or a marriage arranged for him by Sebastian? How could she possibly be an out-of-towner who stopped studying in middle school?
Kingston sneered and answered Phoebe honestly, "We still haven't held our wedding, but it's going to be very soon. I will find a day with good weather and have a wedding ceremony with Eevonne. However, we've already obtained our marriage license from city hall six months ago! Eevonne is truly my legally wedded wife! I think there's probably no such a rule in the Ford Group that the wife of the managing director can't work in the company, right?"
There indeed was no such a rule, when Kingston said that, nobody had anything else to say anymore. Especially Mister Cain. The old man had contributed quite a lot to the Ford Group and was also indeed the company's pillar. Usually, he would never do things like abusing his power to bully the people under him. The reason was that Sebastian was sitting at the top, so nobody truly dared to make any trouble in the company. However, this time, the old man truly failed miserably at the simplest task
