Chapter 77
As she finished speaking, Fiona shot a quick glance at the woman sitting beside Dexter. She added coldly, "You'd
better keep your distance from women like her. Don't say I didn't warn you."
Dexter was taken aback.
What was going on?
He couldn't help but wonder if Angela had cast sspell on Fiona.
How did she manage to change Fiona's opinion of her so quickly?
Dexter was irritated.
It wasn't just Angela cozying up to Fiona—she was also working for DawnStar Design, his rival company. The
owner of Dawn Star Design, Callum Snowden, was the only person he truly considered a competitor in the
industry.
The design industry was relatively niche. Therefore, every ttheir names were mentioned together, it was
always in a way compared against each other-one being praised at the expense of the other.
So, how could he allow Angela to bring DawnStar's employees into his event? How could they sit on his turf,
grinning as if they belonged?
Meanwhile, Angela cleared her throat, signaling for Alan to keep his voice down. She didn't want to attract too
much attention.

The both of them made their way outside the hall and stopped near the stairs.
Dexter got straight to the point. "Take your team and leave right now. I'll arrange for the speakers to give a talk
at Dawn Star Design another time,” he said. His tone was firm and authoritative, a tone that never failed to

come, and yet here, you are! And you had the nerve to involve Mom in this! Do you really think | can't put a stop
to this?" he said, clenching his jaw in irritation.
Angela sighed. "What about Elena's group? They didn't have tickets either, but they got in just fine. So, why can't
we?
"Besides, everyone saw what happened back there. If | leave now, it's not justand my colleagues who'll be
humiliated; it'll reflect poorly on Mom as well. Do you really wantto do that just to make Elena feel good?"
She looked at him silently, her expression neutral. However, it somehow made her vulnerable and upset. At that
