Chapter 33
Chris was helping on the side, looking at the documents and said, "Ms. Taylor, the project on compassionate education and healthcare proposed at the meeting earlier, the planning department suggests getting a celebrity to endorse it to maximize the benefits."
Isabella nodded after hearing this, "That's a good idea. The spokesperson should be someone well-known and reputable, so we can trial it on multiple platforms later. Does the planning department have any suitable candidates?"
Chris found the previously submitted proposal from the documents.
Isabella opened the first page and the first name she saw was Bianca.
A series of praises and awards were listed below.
"A piano prodigy returned from abroad..." Isabella sneered. She had to admit that the industry was quite murky these days. Bianca, being a mistress who was keen on stealing other people's husbands, had become a hot star.
Not to mention, her endorsement fees were very high.
From Chris's angle, he only saw a photo on top and assumed Isabella didn't like Bianca, so he mentioned another candidate.
A newly awarded star in the industry, Calla Griffin.
She had decent skills, and since she was a newcomer, her endorsement fee was low.
Only half of Bianca's.
Isabella looked through it carefully and made a decision, "Let's go with her, Calla. The first one is out of consideration."
"Alright." Chris put away the documents, removed Bianca's profile from the file, and threw it directly into the trash can.
He clearly saw Isabella's disgust earlier. "Ms. Taylor, tonight is your first day back with the Wilson Family. The Wilson Group will host a charity banquet at the best hotel in Evergreen City tonight. As the current head of the Wilson Group, you need to attend. Additionally, the Brown Family will also be invited."
"Okay, I got it."
Upon learning that she was removed from the Wilson Group's endorsement and permanently cut off from cooperation, Bianca was so angry that she threw everything in the room to the floor.
Ever since she encountered that bitch Isabella, her luck had been extremely bad.
After studying abroad for three years, she thought she could rely on Michael's favoritism to drive Isabella out of the Brown Family and take the position of Mrs. Brown.
But she never expected Isabella to be so bold as to climb into Michael's bed in the middle of the night.
That photo of the two passionately kissing made her want to kill Isabella every time she looked at it.
Michael should have been her man.
Isabella stole him from her.
Since Isabella sent that photo, she had wanted to meet Michael countless times to ask what really happened that night.
But for some reason, Michael never answered her calls.
He didn't even reply to her messages.
She had tried calling Isabella, but that bitch had blocked her.
She always thought Michael cared about her. Otherwise, he wouldn't have helped the Scott Family just because of her words. But she never expected...
This morning, she received news that the entire Scott Family had disappeared overnight in Evergreen City.
And the person behind it was Michael.
How could she not be jealous? So she had her agent deliberately submit her profile to the Wilson Group, the current rival of the Brown Group.
She just wanted to get Michael's attention.
She just needed him to coax her a little.
But now, she, a dignified piano prodigy, was rejected by an insignificant small company.
Simply outrageous.
Bianca called her agency to ask why and learned that it was because the Wilson Group had a new president, who had removed her endorsement.
She was even angrier.
"What Wilson Family heir? Who knows where this imposter came from, not even recognizing me." Bianca's eyes turned red with anger at whatever the agent said on the other end, "A person who disappeared for three years, isuddenly reappears and becomes the heir of the entire Wilson Group!"
Outside the door, Harper heard Bianca's venomous cursing and quickly covered the phone, giving her a look.
With a gentle voice, she walked in, "Bianca, Mrs. Brown is looking for you."
Bianca hurriedly hung up her phone, took Harper's phone, and instantly transformed into a well-behaved and obedient persona.
On the call, Stella informed her that there would be a grand charity banquet at the Evergreen City hotel tonight.
Anyone with status in the business world would attend.
Naturally, Michael would be there too, but he happened to be in need of a suitable and sensible companion.
Stella immediately thought of Bianca.
Bianca was, of course, willing to see Michael.
Even if he and Isabella had a moment of impulsive intimacy, she still believed it was all Isabella's fault for seducing Michael.
Moreover, attending such an event would not only allow her to get close to Michael but also benefit her career.
Tonight, she wanted to be the most dazzling leading lady at the event.
By then, Michael's eyes would surely be on her.
After hanging up the phone, Bianca went to a luxury store to purchase an expensive dress and jewelry that would highlight her status.
Meanwhile, at the top floor of the Brown Group building, Michael received a call personally from Chris.
The ownership of the joint development project of the offshore island with the Brown Group was terminated.
In the office, Michael hung up the phone with a dark expression, a cold smile playing on his lips.
This outcome was unexpected.
The Wilson Group was a company on the brink of collapse, yet they had the audacity to take another gamble at this point.
The reason for this change was merely because of an unknown "Miss Wilson."
"Mr. Brown, the Wilson Family has sent an invitation to the banquet. It's said that the mysterious heir of the Wilson Group will also be present. Moreover, to attract attention and investment, they are showcasing a treasured item that the Wilson Family has kept for years as the highlight of the event." Aaron reported everything in detail.
Michael, staring at the stock price trends on his computer, had little interest in this Miss Wilson.
But she shouldn't have harmed his interests.
Losing something that was almost in his grasp made him very angry.
The consequences would be severe.
Michael's eyes darkened, "You sure that the Wilson Family heir will attend the banquet?"
Aaron said, "There's a ninety percent chance. This banquet also serves another purpose: to announce the new president of the Wilson Group to the public. Even the auction item is said to be one of the most important treasures of this heir. The reason for the auction is unclear, but it shows how much the Wilson Family values this banquet."
That mysterious heir would definitely appear.
Just as Michael was about to nod, Aaron suddenly reminded him in a low voice, "Additionally, Mr. Brown, Mrs. Stella Brown called earlier, asking you to bring Ms. Taylor to the banquet and to bid on the highlight item as an engagement gift for Ms. Taylor."
Michael frowned.
After a moment, he raised his hand and instructed, "Follow Mrs. Stella Brown's arrangements. Tonight, I want to see who this Wilson Family heir really is."
Hearing this, Aaron was stunned, "Mr. Brown, are you sure you want Ms. Taylor to attend? If Mrs. Isabella Brown finds out..."
Isabella was already very sensitive about their relationship.
It had reached the point of divorce. If Michael continued to stir things up...
He might really lose Isabella.
