The directors of the Heavenly Star Enterprise looked like they were mourning. Their tables were engulfed with a gloomy atmosphere. Other people glanced in their direction, waiting to see their reaction after hearing the announcement of the Emcee.
Some of the guests laughed after seeing the bitter and ugly expressions of the other directors of Heavenly Star. They failed to conceal their negative emotions, now they became a laughingstock of the crowd.
But among them, only the Davis Family didn't show any emotions. Their expressions remained calm and relaxed. It seemed that they didn't care although Sy Corp just garnered the best record for tonight among the top companies.
Alveena couldn't understand as well why the Davis Family still looked cool and calm despite the fact Sy Corp just got the upper hand tonight.
Alveena leaned closer to Andrew to ask his opinion.
"Hey, are you okay with this? Sy Corp just dominated the whole event because of that result. Why are you not reacting at all? Is your brother not affected at all?" asked Alveena, feeling curious.
Andrew let out a soft chuckle after hearing Alveena's question.
He moved closer to her and whispered. "My brother is looking forward to something more special than trivial things like this. It is more important than business. Wait and see."
Alveena just frowned as she didn't have an idea what Andrew was referring to. 'Something special? More important than business?'
"Then how about the Chairman? Other than looking bored, Chairman Lu is not bothered by this result." Alveena asked Andrew again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Grandpa Lu is the same as my brother. I think he is bored because he is waiting for someone."
"Eh?? Oh speaking of someone, why is it your sister-in-law is not yet here?" Alveena grabbed Andrew's hand and looked at his wristwatch.
Grandpa Lu also called the attention of Tristan. "Tristan… where is Lillie? The event is about to end but she's not here yet. Is my daughter-in-law not feeling well tonight?" the line of worry resurfaced in Grandpa Lu's aged face.
When Tristan saw Clifford and Angelique descended from the stage, his eyes sparkled with excitement.
"Grandpa, she's here. She is coming now." Tristan answered Grandpa Lu with a bright smile on his face.
"Really?" the boredom on Grandpa Lu's face disappeared in an instant after hearing that.
Tristan bobbed his head frantically before pointing his finger in the direction of the stage.
"Now, it's our company's turn!" Tristan blurted out enthusiastically.
The directors felt puzzled why Tristan was very excited about their turn. The directors even wanted to go home to save some faces but they couldn't do that since Chairman Lu was there. They didn't want to face humiliation. They couldn't take it.
"Our CEO is truly shameless…" Director Go murmured while shaking his head.
"Now, last but not the least… let's welcome the representative of the Heavenly Star Enterprise along with their products!" the emcee announced to everyone.
Everyone's attention was back on the stage. It did not take long when a lady in her dark blue gown emerged from the backstage walking elegantly to the front.
There was a moment of silence when Zhen-Zhen appeared in the center stage, wearing her mesmerizing smile.
Almost everyone who was sitting at the Heavenly Star Enterprise's table was shocked upon recognizing the beautiful lady walking on the stage right now. Grandpa Lu and Tristan's parents didn't expect that Zhen-Zhen would be the one representing their company tonight.
"Is that Mrs. Davis, Our CEO's Wife?" one of the directors finally found his voice to speak up the moment he recognized Zhen-Zhen.
"Oh my Gosh! Iris!!! She's here! She finally shows herself to the public" Dhalia, the reporter, shook the shoulder of her partner when she saw Zhen-Zhen on the stage.
"Wow, this is a big scope for tonight! Let's make sure to cover this," Iris also said, preparing his camera.
Clifford was also surprised to see Zhen-Zhen on the stage. He didn't anticipate this. His bright mood suddenly disappeared when he saw Tristan walking toward the stage to join Zhen-Zhen.
Angelique Rioz was not happy the moment she saw the reaction of the crowd. Zhen-Zhen was just a new face but they were mesmerized by her easily. She thought no one could steal the spotlight from her tonight.
Meanwhile, the other guests were still dazed after seeing Zhen-Zhen. They were dazzled by her breathtaking beauty. This was the first time they saw her so they were intrigued about her identity.
"Who is she?"
"Is she a model? Or an actress? A newbie?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"She's so stunning! Damn, I wanna know her."
"Where did Heavenly star get their model? What agency is handling her? Is this her big break?"
The other entertainment reporters were also clueless about Zhen-Zhen's identity. She's so beautiful so how come they didn't know her at all. Even if she was just a newbie, then they should have heard anything about her. But surprisingly, they were not familiar with her.
Even the emcee stopped talking and forgot to introduce Zhen-Zhen's name. She was starstruck by Zhen-Zhen that she forgot her lines.
Tristan, on the other hand, dashed toward the stage even though the emcee didn't call his presence yet. Everyone was also puzzled when they saw Tristan Davis running to the stage.
Zhen-Zhen's gaze moved from the crowd to Tristan. Her eyes became more gentle when she saw him running to her.
The crowd hasn't recovered yet from the daze when Tristan gave them another scene that shocked them to the core.
Upon reaching Zhen-Zhen's spot, Tristan immediately hooked one arm around her waist while his other hand lifted Zhen-Zhen's chin. Then he bent down, covering her lips with his mouth.
Tristan kissed Zhen-Zhen passionately in front of the public!!!
**Loud gasps followed by a deafening Silence**
Everyone: "..."
Several pairs of eyes widened in surprise, their jaws dropped as they witnessed the live kissing scene between the CEO of the Heavenly Star Enterprise and their Company's Model on the stage.
Grandpa Lu, Andrew, and Tristan's parents shook their heads while looking at Tristan helplessly.
"This son of mine! His shamelessness increased to the highest level." Lucas said, his eyes brimming with humor.
"Oh, my grandson… This is supposed to be a Product Showcase, not a showcase for Public Display of Affection!" Grandpa Lu blurted out, smacking his forehead.
