Chapter 17 Sudden Changes
Kaze smiled. “Yes, I am the Chairman of Sky High Investment Group,
in the flesh.”
Agnes flushed. She curled her hands around Kaze’s arm tightly.
Having the Chairman of Sky High Investment Group as her son-in-law would make her the most famous lady in all of Lilyrose City.
The next time she met up with her friends, they would be envious of her. Her friends who used to look down on her would probably flatter her or kneel before her for forgiveness.
Master Quint could not contain the jealousy in his heart as he stared at the pile of expensive gifts. He went up with his glass of wine and said, “Darcy, the Quintessential Group is facing some funding issues at the moment. Can you spare some of your presents to help us overcome this problem? Consider it as a contribution to the family…”
Agnes was displeased when she heard Master Quint.
“Father, I clearly remembered that we were excommunicated. V must we contribute to your family?”
Master Quint chuckled awkwardly. “That was just a joke! Blood is thicker than water! How could I cut you guys off? Tomorrow, I will host a grand banquet to welcome you back!”
Kaze then said, “Master Quint, I also remembered that Darcy’s company is still in Deborah’s possession.”
“Yes! Darcy will be in charge of Silver Wind again.”
“What about the family’s heir?”
“Darcy of course! Darcy will take over the Quintessential Group in the
TULUI
Master Quint laughed ingratiatingly.
Rudy, Deborah’s father, grew restless when he heard Master Quint.
Deborah’s hands were shaking as well.
“A representative from Sky High Investment Group is here!”
Then, a group of elite businessmen arrived at the entrance and
marched in.
The leader was a woman in heavy makeup. She said loudly, “Skylar
View District, a fifty million mansion, the Horizon Mirror…”
“Jewelries and gemstones…”
理
The presents the woman brought were branded and expensive. All the other women at the party looked at Darcy in jealousy.
“Ms. Quint, these are the presents we’ve prepared for you. Happy
birthday…”
The woman looked up but her expression shifted when she had good look at Darcy.
“Darcy?”
“Kelly Clarkson?”
Darcy was also stunned. She did not expect the representative fro Sky High Investment Group to be her old classmate.
Kelly frowned. Back in her school days, she had always disliked Darcy’s pretentious attitude, trying to be the most innocent and pure girl in class.
She did not expect Darcy to be the star of this birthday party.
Kelly was deeply envious. She grumbled, “I need to check with the
company i
wrony.
Kaze frowned when he heard Kelly.
Agnes then stared at Kelly dubiously. “What kind of employee are
you? Your chairman is right here and you’re saying the presents are wrongly delivered?”
Chairman?
Kelly paused and looked around. She scoffed and said, “Are you kidding me, old lady? Where is the chairman?”
Her words caused an uproar among the guests.
Everyone then looked at Kaze suspiciously.
Kelly followed everyone’s gaze and saw Kaze. She scoffed and said, ” Don’t tell me you think the idiot Kaze is the chairman. Ever since Sky High Investment Group started its business here in Lilyrose City, I have never seen him in the office or anywhere within the company premises. How could the chairman of my company be him?”
Kaze frowned. He said coldly, “Kelly Clarkson is it? You can call th chairman’s office and verify my identity.”
“Hmph! Our chairman’s office is not a place you can simply make
call to.”
Kelly rolled her eyes scornfully. “But I shall ask my marketing director and see if he knows you.”
She then made the call and asked who the presents were for.
After a while, she hung up the phone.
Everyone was curious about her answer.
