All of a sudden, his expression became quite grave. “I believe that everyone is aware of what happened. to Mossey Group a few days ago. I am devastated by it, but for Mossey Group to continue to prosper, I have decided to make this announcement tonight, The new heir to the company is none other than Natasha.”

At the end of his speech, he turned around and motioned for the crowd to look up.

Natasha had already changed into a pastel yellow gown, the fluffy curls of her hair sitting perfectly on her right shoulder. Even her makeup had been touched-up, making her seem more refined.

A smile was etched onto her gentle and elegant face. It was as if the incident from before had not occurred at all.

When the guests saw her, they promptly began to applaud.

Given the incident from earlier, Natasha repressed her willfulness and walked down the stairs at a measured pace. She slowly made her way to Jerome to give him a big hug which showcased their familial ties.

Afterward, Jerome walked away and let her take the stage.

Natasha held the microphone in her hands. Under the spotlight, her eyes appeared reddened, and she could not contain her excitement.

“I would like to thank my parents for giving me the opportunity to make contributions to Mossey Group. I will do my best to learn the ropes and bring the company to greater heights. I would also like to thank everyone for attending the banquet this evening. I hope that you all have a lovely time.”

Thinking that Natasha’s speech was over, the guests below applauded again.

However, she was merely taking a breather. With visible embarrassment on her face, she continued to speak.

“I do think that many of you are aware of this, but I want to extend this invitation to everyone while I have the chance. In one month’s time, I will be engaged to the CEO of Wright Construction Group. Maverick Wright. The engagement ceremony will be held at The East, and I hope that everyone will attend to bear witness to our love.”

Bliss was written all over Natasha’s face as she said those words, and she gazed sweetly at Maverick. However, from the corner of her eye, she stole a glance at Gwendolyn.

When Joaquin heard the announcement, he subconsciously turned to look at Gwendolyn.

The woman had an impassive expression on her face as she sipped leisurely at her glass of wine.

Still somewhat worried, he tried to comfort her. “Gwendolyn, this scumbag isn’t worth it. He hasn’t even been divorced for that long, yet he’s getting engaged so soon. It’s good that you left him. Also, what’s Ms. Mossey’s problem? It’s clear that she’s trying to humiliate you by deliberately announcing the engagement in front of everyone at the banquet. What a scheming b*tch.”

His grumble amused Gwendolyn, who chuckled. “You’ve hit the nail on the head, so there’s nothing
