By the time their conversation with Matthew ended, two hours had passed.As they left the hotel, Matthew still seemed a bit reluctant. "Ms. Lewis, Mr. Fulton, if you have the intention of working with Byte, I'll always welcome your participation.""Alright, Mr. Thorne. Let's end it here for today.""Sure, Mr. Fulton, Ms. Lewis. Bye."After Matthew left, Grace turned to Xander with a look that seemed to hold many words.But even before she spoke, Xander had already guessed and asked softly, "Thinking about entering the media industry?"Smiling, Grace nodded. "Although it's an emerging industry, the prospects are promising. Amirate can give it a try. We can establish an artist department, explore potential streamers, recruit a team for operations, and create an account …"Grace went on enthusiastically. In her mind, a rough outline was already taking shape.Toward the end, Grace couldn't help but ask, "Xander, what do you think of my idea?""It's basically formed and can be impl
Grace nodded, explaining, "With the vigorous development of current online technology, short videos have become a hot project."Although Amirate hasn't been involved in this area before, this is a great opportunity. This is a chance for Amirate's transformation—"Before Grace could finish speaking, Samuel directly slammed the document he held onto the table. "I disagree, Ms. Lewis."As these words were said, everyone looked at each other, speechless.Grace asked, "Do you have any questions, Director Walker?"Disdainfully, Samuel smirked. "Amirate has always focused on high-end technology industries, like nanorobots, medical devices, and mining."This is our expertise, and we achieved a good result. But now you want us to venture into a new industry. Let me ask you, Ms. Lewis. How confident are you?"With Samuel's words, others echoed, "Exactly. Ms. Lewis, hastily entering a new field is indeed a challenge for us. In case it fails, Amirate's reputation will suffer.""Ms. Lewis,
Dressed in a striking suit, Caleb appeared with his agent. This caused everyone in the room to gasp."Why is he here?""The third son of the Lewis family is active in the entertainment industry, with a lot of fans. Even a casual Twitter post can get millions of retweets. This shows his immense popularity and large fan base. But why is he here today?"Caleb's presence disrupted the atmosphere in the conference room. Everyone's eyes were filled with surprise, and they looked at Samuel with questioning expressions. What was going on?Meanwhile, Samuel's expression changed instantly, becoming particularly ugly.He hadn't expected that Grace would pull such a move.Caleb walked in confidently, heading toward Grace. The two exchanged smiles, and Caleb's eyes lit up with endless affection."Caleb."Caleb raised an eyebrow and hummed. Then, he stopped beside Grace and turned to face everyone. He greeted them in a relaxed tone. "Hello, everyone." One of the executives couldn't help bu
With that, most of the people in the conference room suddenly changed sides."Director Walker, what do you think?" Grace threw the question to Samuel.Samuel smiled awkwardly, his lips twitching. "Since everyone agrees with you, Ms. Lewis, it seems that this project is good. I have no objection."Grace raised her eyebrows, seeming quite satisfied with the result. So she said, "Since that's the case, let's vote by raising hands."People exchanged glances and then raised their hands one after another.Even Caleb couldn't help but make a joke. "I remember I have shares in Amirate. I can also participate in the vote as a small shareholder."With that, Caleb raised his hand.The number of votes far exceeded expectations.Grace happily said, "With more than half of the votes in favor, this project is considered approved. Amirate's talent department will be officially established today."Applause echoed in the conference room.After the meeting, when everyone left the conference roo
Jessica waved the photo in her hand. "Just this photo is enough for Grace to be unable to explain herself." Susan looked at the photo with satisfaction. "Since that's the case, let Grace go to hell. I want to see how she's torn apart by those brainless fans." "Don't worry, I'll contact the media right away. Tonight, this picture will be spread all over the internet!" Susan snorted coldly, "That would be best." Sure enough, a set of photos had quietly spread on the internet that afternoon. As soon as the photos were released, it caused an uproar online. "Streamer's Late Night Rendevous With Rich Heiress." This striking headline immediately dominated the online trending lists and sparked a huge wave of public opinion. "My god, is this for real? Wayne is actually dating Grace Lewis from the Lewis family?" "What's this? Ms. Lewis is interested in a streamer?" "Wayne is so lucky. Ms. Lewis' family is worth billions. He's won the lottery!" "What? My husband is dating Ms.
"With the way things are going now, doesn't it indirectly confirm my relationship with Wayne?" Grace said, just as her phone dinged. After reading the text message, her eyes darkened. Zoey replied, "If you don't deny it, the public will probably take it as confirmation of your relationship with Wayne. But this might not be a bad thing. "Aren't you trying to get into content creation and creating an account? Given the heat from this incident, you could use it to attract traffic—" Before Zoey could finish, Grace immediately rejected the idea, "No." Grace's eyes were fixed on the new text message from Wayne, which was similar to what Zoey had suggested.Wayne was also a content creator. He understood the need to use traffic from the incident. The scandal involving him and Grace had gained unprecedented attention. Although they hadn't interacted much, leveraging this hype for publicity didn't seem like a bad idea to him. Thus, Wayne also intended to neither confirm nor den
Jessica stepped forward and gently took Susan's arm to soothe her. "Don't worry. Only you and I know about this. Benjamin will never find out as long as I don't say anything." Susan, however, was panicking. She knew about Benjamin's concern for Grace, and he had warned her not to provoke Grace several times. But this time, she had crossed the line. "Jessica, you must help me keep this a secret!"Jessica smiled and nodded. "Don't worry, Madam Hawkins. The payment for the photographer was done from my account. Even if Benjamin investigates this, he can only trace it back to me and won't suspect you." Hearing this, Susan breathed a sigh of relief, patting her chest. "Good. That's good." "But …" Jessica hesitated, then continued, "You promised to help me with the property deed for the land last time." "That's a small matter, Jessica. Since I've promised you, I will make it happen. Don't worry." Jessica smiled broadly. She linked arms with Susan and said, "Thank you, Mada
"I looked into it, and it turns out that someone paid to stir up the rumors about you and Wayne." "Do you know who it is?" "Not yet, but sooner or later, I'll find out who dared to do something so despicable." Zoey spoke with conviction, then added in a playful tone, "But speaking of which, the netizens are quite sharp-eyed. At least they didn't go off track and focused on the main things. "By the way, Gracie, how about inviting Xander for a get-together tonight?" Grace thought the suggestion was good. "Sure! I'll send him a message."Grace opened her chat with Xander. They hadn't spoken since last night, and Grace's eyes flickered with worry. During this time, she and Xander had been chatting regularly, and they had hardly stopped. The longest gap between their messages before had just been a few hours. But today was strange. It had been a whole night, and Xander hadn't replied to her message. Grace's fingers rapidly tapped on the screen as she sent Xander a message.
