Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 162

Still, people would often discuss a little about the relationship between Pierre and Meredith. “No, Landy, that’s okay. Just let them talk about it, but I won’t comment on it,” Meredith said, changing her mind.

Initially, when Pierre told her that it wouldn’t be possible for him to marry her, she had been preventing others from mentioning the topic between them. But her attitude today was so different from usual that even Landy was surprised.

“Meredith, are you… planning to create a publicity stunt?” “Well, not really. The media have always liked to make groundless accusations, haven’t they? I’m not telling them anything, anyway.” Meredith put on a mysterious smile, and Landy took the hint.

This was a common trick used by celebrities—refusing to answer something when asked so they could keep people guessing. That way, it would definitely become one of the trending topics on the internet.

“Okay, I’ll talk to the host again.”

“Also, isn’t there a charity night next week to attend? Just pick that retro dress for that event.”

Taken aback, Landy asked, “Didn’t you say that it was too tacky?”

“No. When I think about it now, I think that’s the most suitable outfit.” There was an unreadable glimmer in her eyes when she spoke.

That retro dress would match with the jade bracelet nicely, and she wanted everyone to know that Pierre had spent 110 million in an auction to buy it for her, especially Selena—she just got to let her know.

“Sure. It’s good to diversify your style once in a while so that everyone can see your gentle and magnanimous side.”

Meredith didn’t say anything, merely smiling sweetly in reply.

At the Empire Group, Niall walked cautiously cradling the bracelet worth one hundred and ten million in his hands. It was worth so much that he couldn’t afford to pay for it, and he felt as though he was carrying a ticking bomb. Meticulously holding it, he happened to run into his colleague along the way.

“Niall, do you have a bomb inside? Look how cautious you’re being.”
