NovelEnglishChapter 1853 Unscrupulous Business Stuart's confident smile hit a sudden snag. He'd been wearing a look of smug satisfaction, but the situation had taken a turn for the awkward.
Elisa and Bella maintained their poised demeanor and sophistication. At the stime, their team members couldn't resist snickering, appreciating Gareth's intervention and finding humor in Stuart's awkward ordeal.

Stuart stood up, stomping and trying to hide his rage.

Right then, it dawned on him that Gareth was dedicated to bolstering his wife's bid for success. And it was unfortunate that Stuart was yet to realize this.
At that exact moment, Elisa, silently observing, couldn't suppress her chuckle, causing all eyes to shift toward her.
She quipped, "Hold up, Mr. Mazel, things aren't exactly as you've assumed. Our materials are in different leagues. We're working with 999 fine silver while you're sticking with 925.

When weighed against the destruction of the company's reputation, this was the lesser of two evils.
However...
He glared at Elisa with malice and cursed, "You damned b*tch from god-knows-where, you and your b*tch of a mother! | wish | could kill you and your..." Before he could finish his words, Gareth's fist knocked out one of his teeth.
Blood kept flowing from his mouth.
Jimmy calmly watched everything unfold and instructed the security to escort Stuart out.
Poor Stuart cin swaggering and left being dragged away like a limp rag.
His employees were left stunned, frozen in place, only to watch as their boss was hauled away before they could react.
