The Beauty and the Brain by Natalie Jones novel Chapter 224

Chapter 224 

Get Boo 

The questions they wanted to ask had been collected and organized to a certain extent, and Olive had 

prepared decent and reasonable answers as he pondered, “Where did this reporter come from? Who asked 

them to ask these tricky questions?” 

Olive’s face fell, pondering. Why didn’t Marie show up? Because I ordered the bodyguards to guard the door 

and not to let her in. 

Why did Marie sell the company to me? Because Darwin stole the official seal for me. With the seal, this 

meant the contract would take effect. 

What price did I offer? Darwin helped me in exchange for Sasha’s photos. 

Why did the Spence Group acquire JCL? Because our family is now in charge of Spence Group. 

What kind of position is Iliana Tuttle in now? She was just a pitiful stray dog who couldn’t even go back to the 

Tuttle family. 

How am I supposed to reveal this to the media? If these things were exposed, it would be the end of me, 

including Sabrina, Nataly, and Shirley!> 

Shirley and Nataly sat at the side as they watched Olive stay silent. Like how Marie was the backbone of 

Sasha and the others, Shirley and Nataly were now at her disposal. 

Olive said nothing as the reporters waited for her with cameras on. Her awkwardness made people feel there 

was a lot of information to dig out. 

When everyone was quiet, the door of the venue suddenly burst open. The noise was not loud but enough to 

attract everyone’s attention. 

The door was switched open, and the crowd looked back to see which reporter was so unpunctual for them 

to arrive when the press conference was about to end. 

After a closer look, they noticed a girl lifting the hem of her skirt as she smiled gracefully. She had delicate 

and perfect facial features. She was none other than the woman they had just mentioned, which was Marie. 

The reporters immediately stood up and rushed towards Marie, bombarding her with questions one after 

another. 

“Excuse me, Ms. Spence. Why are you late for such an important acquisition?” 

“Does your behavior mean you do not want to sell the company?” 

“What did Olive offer you to agree to?” 

“How do you feel about the sudden relationship between Darwin and Sabrina?” 

The reporters chased after Marie anxiously and impatiently to hurl questions at her. Fortunately, Luca reacted quickly by taking a few bodyguards and the staff to maintain order, allowing the reporters to return to 

their seats 

Get Borus 

At the press conference, the reporters sat on both sides of the aisle momentarily. Olive sat seductively on the stage while Marie stood casually below the stage. The two looked at each other, and sparks flew everywhere 

when their eyes met. 

Some reporters quickly snapped a photo and captioned, “Former best friends hide malicious intents behind 

smiles. What is the outcome of the acquisition?” 

At the same time, the press conference was being broadcasted live. Various platforms, such as Twitter, had 

done enough publicity to ensure many viewers. After Marie walked into the venue, the number of viewers 

skyrocketed. 

Standing in the middle of the aisle, Marie smiled at Olive on the stage and asked, “The reporters are asking 

you questions, Olive. Maris Entertainment is developing rapidly. Why should I sell you such a good studio?” 

“How much did you offer me before I agreed to sign and seal it? JCL is Iliana’s brand and design. How did 

Shirley and Nataly get involved? Marie asked. 

As she spoke, she walked up to Olive on stage with a smile and said, “If you can’t answer these questions, 

why don’t I help you answer them?” 

Olive turned her head abruptly and glared at Marie The former had a hunch Marie was definitely not here to 

simply sign a contract to sell the company. She would not be Marie if she did not cause any trouble. 

“In any case, what can Marie do to cause trouble? Everything is set in stone now. Even if we had a falling out, 

she can’t win Olive thought. 

Olive encouraged herself and cheered inwardly. This game is over. I win!” 

Marie sat down slowly and said. “Several reporters asked many questions just now. Since Olive hasn’t figured 

out how to answer for the time being. I’ll explain it to you one by one.” 

“First, someone asked me why I sold the company to Olive, right? I’ll answer every clearly – Maris. Entertainment did not sell it to Olive Entertainment or the Spence Group Everything is still the same. The 

artists under me are still my artists, and nothing has changed,” Marie answered with a smile. 

As soon as she said this, the reporters were stunned. They saw the front page and the seal of the contract 

with their own eyes. It could not be fake. 

Besides, it could not be fake when Olive held such a grand press conference to announce it. 

Olive, Shirley, and the others laughed. They thought, “Has Marie gone mad? Why did she attend the press conference to say the contract is fake?” 

This was the official seal Darwin had stolen, and the Spence Group’s legal advisor personally drafted the contract’s terms. It was impossible for it to be fake. 

Olive was relieved, sneering inwardly. “Marie was just desperate, after all. She has no real evidence.” 

Ignoring the eyes of the people around her, Marie continued, “The second question is, what price did Olive offer me? Since there is no acquisition, there is naturally no price.” 

Olive could not help but laugh, thinking Marie was merely spouting nonsense. 

Get Bo 

“Third question is why did the Spence Group acquire JCL. This is not true and is pure rubbish’ Marie spoke into the microphone, “The last one, what position is Iliana in now? She is JCL’s chief designer and Sasha’s 

exclusive stylist. This has never changed ” 

After she finished speaking, the reporters sitting below were dumbfounded. Marie’s words were the complete opposite of what Olive said. In that case, there must be one person who was speaking the truth while the 

other was lying. The reporters led around could not tell the difference for a while, let alone know what to ask.
