Chapter 667
The development was obviously beyond Nathaniel and Arianna's expectations. Once the secrets of the rich
and powerful families were out, the impact on their reputation was immeasurable.
Regardless, this matter would be covered up and hidden so that it would never be known to outsiders.
However, it had already spread throughout Sapphine and Brown City. At this point, the entire country was
aware of this.
The media were the most adept at excavating and expanding their imagination on such things. Not only was
the Lodge family under a lot of chaos right now, but they were also busy giving their statements at the police
station while they waited for Wilfred's cause of death from the forensics team.
The Lodge family was in a mess, and their company was in turmoil when the news broke out. Reporters had

Everyone in the Lodge family was panic-stricken as the outside world continued to have their opinions.
Arianna watched the news with pursed lips and slowly sipped on her red wine, a faint smile on her face.
’Good! I hope it gets messier!1 The more chaotic it was, the higher the chances she had to take
advantage of things, and the more likely she could come out on top. Of course, the first thing she had
to do was resolve her family's affairs.
Bang!
The office door swung open. Arianna did not have to look up to know who it was just by the sound. She
unhurriedly turned off the TV and put down the wine glass before looking over. Damian stormed in
grumpily as if he had woken up on the wrong side of the bed.
"Ari, how can you still sit here and watch TV as you sip on wine?! Do you know how chaotic the people
under you are right now?!" Damian began to point fingers as if he was already the head of the
company.
However, Arianna was not angry at all. Instead, she looked at him with a smile. "What's wrong? What
did they do that made you so angry?"
"Do my words mean nothing to them? Don't they know I’m the general manager of this project? Do they
know I am the branch manager?! Why do they keep listening to that Hall guy? Is this the Tanner
Corporation or the Hall Corporation?!" Damian was indignant. It seemed like Nathaniel had pushed his
buttons quite a bit.
Arianna restrained herself from rolling her eyes and thought, 'This obviously is the Tanner Corporation,
but you're not a Tanner. Get off your high horse!'
However, those were words she could not say out loud. Instead, she stood up and quietly poured
Damian some red wine. Then she placed it in front of him, patted his shoulders, and said, "Even you
know this is the Tanner Corporation, and it belongs to our family. Why does an outsider threaten you?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"He doesn’t threaten me. He just can't get along with me! I told him we should invite some internationally
renowned perfumers to
come up with exquisite perfumes so we can easily win over the market and become famous.
“Guess what? He kept shooting me down with questions like how much we would have to pay those renowned
perfumers and what if they don't live up to their name. Do we even have any perfumers that are up to par
here? Everyone knows all the great perfumers are from abroad!"
Although Damian had a general understanding of this new project, he needed to become more familiar with
the perfumery industry. Also, he only knew a few famous perfumers. However, he heard that all the famous
perfumers were from abroad, so he was tempted to invite them over.
In his argument, it would firstly be a more straightforward option. Perfumes prepared by well-known perfumers
naturally opened up to the market quickly. Secondly, he was eager to achieve anything to make his father and
everyone else in the company acknowledge him.
