Chapter 45
Nina looked at Violet's back, thinking.
She glanced at a few women and proudly shook off their hands, "Don't follow me. I'm not familiar with you."
Not far away, Austin watched the whole scene and came up to Louis' side.
"Louis, so your ugly wife is so fierce? Look like she is person in charge. It's that face ......"
Austin paused, ignoring Louis's cold, swift knife eyes, "It would be perfect if you replaced her face with that of your lover."
Replace Violet's face with Helena's?
Shouldn't he find a chance to ask Violet to remove her makeup in public?
Louis raised his sword eyebrows and curved the corners of his mouth.
Violet entered the lounge, looked at the soiled suit in her hands and let out a soft breath.
She didn't keep his suit well, and she didn't know if he will be angry.
"Violet, are you tired?"
The old Mrs. Johnson was helped by the maid and went into the lounge.
Violet hurriedly hung up her suit and smiled, "Grandma, I'm not tired."
"Well, good. I've put you through the wringer today."
The old Mrs. Johnson patted her hand and spoke soothingly.
It looked like someone reported the thing to the old Mrs. Johnson.
Violet smiled, said nothing more, and helped the old Mrs. Johnson out of the lounge.
The party had already started.
After a set of rousing opening remarks from the host, it was time for Leon, the head of the Johnson Family, to deliver his speech.
After Leon's speech, it led to Louis.
"Next, I'd like to officially hand over the family business of the Johnson Family to my son Louis. I hope that everyone here will still support my son Louis as you did before." The thick male voice was loud and clear as Louis took center stage to the applause of the crowd.
Leon patted him on the shoulder with a look of relief.
"Louis, the future of the Johnson Group is up to you."
"Thanks Dad for your trust, I'll work on it."
Louis took the microphone, and his magnetic voice floated in mid-air with calmness.
He looked over the crowd, looking down on them like a king, and spoke succinctly about the next direction for the Johnson Group.
Violet held the old Mrs. Johnson standing to one side, watching the man in the light talk eloquently, the corners of her mouth curved.
Needless to say, Louis was a specially privileged person.
Apart from a slight flaw in his identity, everything was perfect.
Not only was the person handsome, but he also had a high IQ and high academic qualifications.
He received a double diploma in finance and law when he was very young.
If it wasn't for the car accident a year ago, how good should the woman standing next to him be for such a man?
"Well, that's all I have to say. Next, please enjoy your dinner."
Louis finished, gave a slight nod and prepared to leave the stage.
"Mr. Johnson, I heard that you sent Cooper, the general manager of the Johnson Group, to jail in a righteous manner as soon as you took office after returning to the country because he was unworthy of being the general manager of the Johnson Group due to his tainted virtues, right?"
A reporter standing in the first row suddenly spoke up.
Louis's footsteps were halted and he turned to look at him.
"Yes, that's right."
For today's dinner, they had invited several mainstream media to visit.
But there was no interview session at this time.
Then this person......
"By this move, is Mr. Johnson expressing to the public that people with tainted virtues do not deserve to be in management?"
The reporter continued to ask questions.
Louis' eyes moved slightly and he faintly responded, "Yes."
"But it is rumored that you, Mr. Johnson, because of your dislike of Mrs. Johnson's ugliness, set your eyes on her best friend and took possession of her.
Once this statement was made, the originally silent occasion was suddenly in an uproar.
All the people started whispering.
