She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment

That one line of Nora’s immediately went under analysis by everyone, who then posted it on the Internet.

Some people’s interpretations were:

“She’ll give us an answer in two days? Gold prices will probably hit a new low in two days! When that happens and the Smiths become the most profitable company of the year, she’ll then announce her break with the Hunts?”

“Friend, are you kidding? Her children can already inherit the Hunts’ property. What will remain of Ms. Smith if she breaks off ties with them? That bit of dividends from the Smiths?”

“Now that you’ve mentioned the dividends, won’t the Smiths give Ms. Smith the position of successor? After all, everyone knows that the current head of the Smiths is the previous head’s nephew!”

“Haha, I am a Smith Corporation employee. I can tell you very clearly that Ian Smith has already transferred the company shares to Joel Smith, so he now has 51% of the shares, which gives him absolute control over the company. The previous head only gave Ms. Smith 10 of the shares, so all your speculations are nonsense!”

“You’re from the Smith Corporation? Then can you tell me if your company and the Hunt Corporation have really been in a competitive relationship all these years?”

“Of course we are! We are not only competing with them on the outside but also internally. Every project always has two teams studying and developing it. Only competition can motivate a person’s most primitive passion, but as far as I know, the Smith Corporation does not care about things like being first or second. The Smith Corporation’s annual turnover is not much less than that of the Hunt Corporation!”

“Even if it’s not much less, it’s still less than theirs. Even if they don’t care about who’s first or second, they are still in second place. Who wouldn’t want to get rid of their fate of being in second place forever? Besides, Mr. Hunt only has one son. Even if Ms. Smith plays a few small tricks and makes the Hunt Corporation lose 80 million dollars, all that will happen is that they’ll become the second in terms of annual turnover this year. The Hunts won’t be too concerned. But by doing so, the Smiths can take first place for once, so why not? It’s just 80 million dollars, the Smiths probably don’t even think anything of it, right?”

Some believed it while some didn’t. Everyone gloated over others’ misfortune while they chatted about the gossip and waited quietly for the results that would come in two days.

Nora wasn’t one to bother listening to what outsiders said. Instead, she was dealing with the Hunt Corporation’s affairs as well as looking for an overseas project so that she could find an excuse to go to Switzerland.

In the company, she approached Celine, a female staff member who was temporarily taking Lawrence’s place in the secretarial department, and asked, “Does the company have any projects in Switzerland?”

With her head lowered, Celine answered stiffly, “No. If you have the time to be looking at overseas projects, then why don’t you settle the company’s domestic affairs first? Regarding the gold futures, what exactly are you thinking?”

After Justin’s accident and in Lawrence’s absence, Celine had temporarily taken over the latter’s position as the leader of the secretarial department.
