Chapter 185

The banquet continued as usual on the part of Sawle Group.

Since Ada Wang had already been taken away by Chloe, everyone’s mood was somewhat subdued.

Originally, Zoey had dressed up to show off her talent in front of international superstars, driven by her vanity, but when Ada left, she had no chance to sing, rendering all her preparations futile.

It was all Chloe’s fault, that sinister and cunning woman!

Joseph stood tall and straight outside the banquet hall, his figure framed by the floor-to-ceiling window, resembling an ice sculpture, cold and rugged.

He stared in the direction the Crystal Goddess Rolls-Royce had driven off, his breathing heavy and fists secretly clenched.

“Mr. Sawle, although I hate to admit it, it appears Miss Thorp has outwitted us this time.”

Max wiped his sweat with trepidation. “The buzzwords on the trending searches are all related to KS. Our trending search is gone. What’s more, news of Miss Thorp openly picking up Ada tonight has spread in the circle. Even the chairman knows

about it.”

“Now… the external world is questioning our Sawle Group, asserting that we lack the capacity think through things before doing it, and questioning the overall standard of our hotel…”

Max had finished speaking and was already sweating profusely.

He had already anticipated the outcome when Chloe launched her attack; it was a full-on assault, leaving no room for the adversary to catch their breath.

Joseph gazed at the distant, unseen taillights of the Rolls-Royce and croaked, “Why did you go back on your word? Don’t you always address her as ‘Young Madam”?”

Max sucked in a breath of cold air and said weakly, “If she doesn’t harass you, she will be Young Madam… If she does harass you… it will be Miss Thorp.”

“It’s just a way of speaking. If you’d like to refer to her as ‘Young Madam’, I don’t have any objections.”

“Besides, I’m not really angry,” Joseph gasped. “The Young Miss of Thorp family has always been like this, hasn’t it?”

Had Mr. Sawle not gritted his teeth when fighting with the young madam this time, he was so open-minded.

Was he masochistic?

“However,” Joseph couldn’t help but be curious, “every guest must have an invitation letter to enter this banquet. The security in the hotel is tight. How did Chloe get in?”

“Hmm… I heard that before Young Madam arrived, the surveillance system had a brief malfunction. But just a few days ago, our hotel’s network equipment was fixed. It couldn’t have broken down so quickly. So I suspect that there was a hacker who either attacked or was infected with a virus.”

“Hacker?” Joseph frowned.

Could it be that this was also done by Chloe? Does she have the ability?

Or, which brother of hers had “aided the despot” once more?
