Chapter 452
“Mdm. Jones is still so young. She looks exactly the same as the time when she first became the CEO of
Jones Corporation ten years ago. Her every move makes me envious.”
“Women like us will never be able to learn Mdm. Jones’ harsh methods. But why is she here right now?”
“Yeah, the Jones family didn’t manage to collaborate with Elitos, right?”
“Could it be…”
Everyone kept switching gazes between Zhenny and Adina.

The man on the stage, Earley, was the host who had organized the banquet. He walked down the stage
and calmly said, “Mdm. Jones, it’s an honor for Elitos Corporation to have you take some time out of your
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtday to attend this banquet. Someone, please get some wine for Mdm. Jones.”
Zhenny’s gaze was unfriendly, and she responded indifferently. “Don’t beat around the bush. I came
today because I wanted to ask you something, Mr. Wynters. Did Elitos really decide to hire Ms.
Daugherty as the chief chip designer for the project?” Earley’s voice was cold. “Elitos has made the
announcement, so it’s official.”
“Good! Great!”
Zhenny did not get angry. Instead, she laughed and showed a contemptuous expression. Everyone in
the hall seemed lost. They did not know what her aim was. “Ms. Daugherty, she’s come here to deal with
you,” Trent moved close to Adina’s ear and softly said. It looked like he was watching a show. Adina took
a sip of champagne without a care. “I don’t think I have anything to do with this.”
She relied on her own abilities to submit the bid and win it.
Mdm. Jones came to look for trouble in a public place after everything had been finalized. That would
only lower her corporation’s image.
Adina took a step backward toward the crowd. She was not interested in Mdm. Jones’ visit.
But Zhenny cast a glance at Adina’s face in a seemingly casual fashion.
She had checked Adina’s information out yesterday. Adina looked ravishing in the pictures, but she was,
unexpectedly, more stunning in person.
If Adina were ugly, Zhenny could have still forced herself to believe that Adina had completed the
proposal. However, Adina was so pretty. She looked like a beautiful but lousy woman, so Zhenny could
not help but feel suspicious…
Zhenny sneered and said, “Mr. Wynters, you have no idea that my proposal went missing three days
ago, right?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEarley frowned. “So?”
“I’ve been revising the proposal for three months. Right after I finalized and saved the
document, it went missing.” Zhenny firmly and slowly said, “At the same time, Ms. Daugherty became
Elitos Corporation’s chief chip designer.”
As soon as she said that, the hall burst into a ruckus.
“Oh, gosh! No wonder Adina was able to submit her proposal in one day.”
“So this is what happened. She actually stole Mdm. Jones’ three months of hard work.”
“A person like that is akin to a parasite in the industry. How could Elitos Corporation collaborate with such
a person?”
“Who knew there would be such an ugly heart hidden under that gorgeous face? We need to make this
incident known so that everyone in Sea City can see who the most beautiful woman is!”
“Poor Mdm. Jones. She worked hard on the proposal for three months, and it was stolen!” “It isn’t too late
to expose Adina’s pretentious side now, is it?”
