The two chatted and laughed as they walked to the stage. As they entered, the surrounding area fell quiet. Jeremy took the microphone and cleared his throat.
“Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend this banquet. I have several announcements to make.”
“First, allow me to introduce the lady beside me, Ms. Louvain.”
“She is our new Vice Chairman and will now take full responsibility of the Skypark Business Center.”
The Skypark Business Center was a venture I had personally masterminded and spent years preparing for. It was finally the right time to reap the rewards, but Jeremy handed it all over to Irene.
I watched coldly as the scene unfolded. Seeing Irene’s smug smile, I felt a spark of anticipation. I wondered how this cheating pair would look when I showed up.
While Jeremy was speaking, I stood up and walked to the stage, reaching for a microphone. This scene immediately captured everyone’s attention and the audience was already buzzing with discussion.
I looked at Jeremy. “Mr. Chastan, why don’t you tell everyone about your relationship with Ms. Louvain?”
“No rush.”
Jeremy showed no sign of panic, as if he’d anticipated this. He glanced around.
