Abel thought for a moment and asked, “What do you want to know about?”Ruth asked seriously, “Tell me something I don’t know about you! Something interesting that no one else knows!”Abel said calmly, “My evaluation in the financial reports is too one-sided. I’m actually not the richest man in Sommerset anymore.”In moments, countless shocking guesses popped up in Ruth’s mind. “Promotion of the marketing account? A fake tycoon who’s actually poor? He went bankrupt recently?”“In the latest international billionaires’ list, I’m ranked third. The first two spots are occupied by a business magnate and a foreign royal figure. This number was just calculated this year and hasn’t been officially released yet. Even the rest of the Blakewell family are unaware of it.”Did that mean that he was richer than billionaires outside the country?Ruth felt like she was on a roller-coaster ride. She thought the ride was about to derail and plummet into a chasm, but instead, it flew up into the cl
Ruth felt excited and asked, “Does that mean you’re going to the launch with me?”Abel said, “How can I not be present at my wife’s product launch? And have you forgotten that you’re collaborating with a designer from Blakewell Jewelry?”Ruth said seriously, “I don’t plan on revealing Seema’s identity tomorrow. If I reveal too much information at this time, we won’t be able to control the direction of the public opinion.”Abel nodded. “Then don’t make it public. I’ll attend as a partner.”Ruth was speechless.They were going to attend together either way, right?The venue of Seema’s press conference was booked by Lockton Corporation. It was at the Camere Hotel.Luna’s press conference was also here because the hotel was owned by Lovehart Corporation.At 7 p.m., many celebrities from both the media and fashion industries arrived at the venue.Dulcie and Alex stood at the entrance to greet the guests politely. Backstage, Demi and the models who would showcase the new accessories
The public’s views about Luna’s situation had continued to run wild. Therefore, the reporters’ words were sharp and merciless. Luna was clearly much calmer than before. She smiled at the reporter who asked the last question. “Your question is unnecessary. Katie has said that our family is doing well. I hope everyone will stop asking such sensationalized questions.”Exposing that reporter’s intentions with a single phrase actually made her appear composed and magnanimous. The reporter immediately kept quiet.Luna continued, “I hope everyone won’t buy into rumors and speculate about our private lives. As for the endorsement, I can only say that even if I’m not from the Lovehart family, I’m still the second daughter of the Goldwell family. Mr. Goldwell has always treated me like his own daughter, which I was and still am.”The meaning of her words sounded quite arrogant, as though she was saying, “I’m relying on the Lovehart connections, so what? Even if I don’t have a relationship w
“Horrible? But you like me, don’t you?”“…”The noise from the reporters in the back rows grew even more.Someone had already secretly made a call. “Chief Editor, this is shocking news! Stay on all the live-stream platforms. The content is too explosive!”Luna watched their reactions and was still a little confused until she heard the familiar conversation. She whipped around and saw the photo that she most dreaded becoming found.She had even forgotten about it until it suddenly appeared in her inbox recently.Luna suddenly stood up and tried to cover the screen like a lunatic. “Turn it off! Who put this up?! Turn it off! No one is allowed to look! Security, chase them all out!”The camera shutters were still clicking rapidly as everyone took all the photos they needed.The security guards remained indifferent, but the first ones to take action were Luna’s personal bodyguards. He quickly went forward to protect her and tried to prevent the reporters from crowding around her.
THAT was Abel’s take away from the scene just now?! And Ruth understood it perfectly!Abel walked on with a dark look on his face. Ruth followed behind and tried her best to smile apologetically. She tugged at his sleeve and coaxed him gently.Apollo was speechless, but he silently thought they were too eccentric a couple.......The press conference upstairs was a tumultuous scene. Leroy’s new line had yet to be introduced, but no one was interested anymore. They were all shocked by Luna’s scandalous private affair.In the VIP lounge, Notus flew into a rage and slammed the table. “What the hell is going on?! Who leaked the photo? How could there be such a mistake?”The person-in-charge lowered his head and as he endured Notus’s wrath. “We’re not sure, either. It was so strange just now. We couldn’t even stop it. We could only unplug the whole system!”“You couldn’t top it? Was there a ghost possessing your equipment?! I think all of you are...” Notus suddenly paused.Didn’t so
At the launch of Seema’s new line, many public figures from both jewelry and fashion industries were in attendance. Several media outlets were also present.Although it was not as lively as the press conference upstairs, it was not small either.At first, Alex was helping Dulcie monitor the situation there. Later on, when the designer from Blakewell Corporation arrived, Alex flagged him over to substitute for him so that he could run to a corner and grab his laptop.At some point, Dulcie got bored and quickly walked to Alex’s side.“What are you hiding here for? Demz is about to go on stage, and Ruth isn’t here yet. I want to see what’s happening upstairs!”Alex turned off his laptop to hide what he was doing. “Don’t worry, she’ll be down soon. Let’s go watch Demz!”Dulcie was confused.Not long after Dulcie and Alex took their seats, Ruth and Abel showed up.Dulcie’s eyes flickered. She was worried that people would suspect something if the two of them walked together. Just as
Dulcie kindly answered, “Firstly, Miss Demi is very dedicated to her work. Secondly, Alex is a fan of hers. After interacting with her, I feel that Miss Demi’s temperament is very suitable for our work.”“Does it also have anything to do with the relationship rumors about Miss Demi?” The reporter was asked bluntly.Dulcie paused for a moment and pursed her lips. She looked cute on the outside, but when her aura was fully released, she was oppressive. She stared fixedly at the reporters below with that oppressive aura.The room was filled with dead silence. Demi smiled and said, “That is a private matter and has nothing to do with today’s press conference. Everyone should pay more attention to the new work.”When she said this, understanding dawned on the reporters. It was such a good opportunity to clarify, but Dulcie was very tight-lipped on this and gave them nothing.There were some cameramen at the side who subtly swept over the first row of VIP seats. Apollo was seated among
There was nothing that Dulcie could say. She was filled with too much regret.Alex should not have been allowed to go on-stage that night. The idiot was incapable of keeping his mouth shut!She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. “Do you know what beating a dead horse means? That’s what’s happening right now.”Alex did not understand. He only realized that something was wrong when he saw how angry Dulcie was. After thinking for a few seconds, he suddenly said, “Shall I blacklist them and stop all discussion?”Dulcie was speechless. Alex’s mild suggestion sounded more like he intended to delete the commenters’ social media accounts. Did Alex become a hacker just because he could and not because he was smart?But it was not a bad idea. Dulcie turned to look at Ruth. “What do you think?”Ruth leaned back in her chair with a laptop in front of her and a pen in one hand. She shook her head and said, “Look at the sudden rise in criticism. Most of them are from alterna
