Adrian Law stood tall and elegant, lazily leaning beside a Bugatti Veyron. His features were exquisite, yet carried no trace of femininity; instead, he exuded an inherent nobility and grace.
"Cecilia, is the eting over?"
The man gazed at Cecilia Vaughn with a smile, lightly motioning with his hand as if his eyes could only hold her slender figure.
Even Wyatt Law, a big man himself, couldn’t help but feel a tinge of envy at this indulgence.
Young Master Law cares too much for the Young Madam, and it’s not even closing ti at Law Group yet!
Usually, Young Master is a workaholic, but ever since he t the Young Madam, it seems as if he’s changed altogether. Everything else, regardless of its importance, has to take a back seat to the Young Madam!
...
Cecilia Vaughn hugged her briefcase with delight, not minding her high heels, running towards Adrian Law like a little girl.
"Adrian, didn’t I tell you not to co specially? I said I could handle it."
Cecilia Vaughn gave Adrian Law a reproachful glance, yet her heart felt sweet as if it was filled with honey.
The man’s gaze was intense as he looked at the approaching girl, pulling her into his embrace.
"Isn’t it your fault? Not seeing you for a day feels like three autumns. Based on our ti apart, at least an autumn has passed."
"What nonsense."
Cecilia Vaughn gently scratched Adrian Law’s arm, her alluring eyes shimring, but her ears blushing uncontrollably.
She truly wondered how Adrian Law could speak such romantic words with a straight face, without feeling it was too saccharine.
...
At this mont, three middle-aged n, whom Cecilia Vaughn thought looked sowhat familiar, approached from behind the Bugatti Veyron.
"You must be Eldest Miss Vaughn. I’ve long heard of your reputation. eting you today, your elegance indeed stands out. A pleasure, a pleasure."
The middle-aged man with a square face wore a warm smile, extending his hand to Cecilia Vaughn.
"And you are?"
Cecilia Vaughn’s beautiful brows gently furrowed. She was just about to extend her hand when Adrian Law suddenly pulled her back, leaving the square-faced man’s hand hanging.
He glared sharply at the other, his eyes practically overflowing with possessiveness.
"Cecilia, this is President Alden of Dreamchaser Group. The other two are President Sinclair of Hexagon Group and Vice President Sanders of Look to the Sun Foundation."
President Alden, who tried to shake Cecilia Vaughn’s hand earlier, had an awkward expression and had to retract his hand.
But inwardly, he couldn’t help but think that The Eldest Young Master Law’s jealousy was too intense!
It was just a polite handshake, was that sothing to prevent?!
As President Alden complained inwardly, his face was all smiles.
"Yes, my na is Alden. I’ve just returned from Borealis after seeing the aurora. I just got off the plane and was a bit dizzy, I apologize for making a joke of myself in front of The Eldest Young Master Law and Miss Vaughn."
...
Cecilia Vaughn suddenly realized why these three n seed familiar. They were prominent external shareholders of the Radiant Group.
She had only seen photos during her research, not having t them in person. So she didn’t recognize them at first sight.
Moreover, the shareholder eting was almost over, and these three hadn’t shown up, Cecilia was puzzled. Unexpectedly, she t the three main figures just as she stepped outside.
Cecilia Vaughn wasn’t sure what ga they were playing, so she hesitated before speaking.
"President Alden, today is the shareholders’ eting day, but it’s already over. What do you, Vice President Sanders, and President Sinclair an by arriving late?"
President Alden, looking into Cecilia Vaughn’s eyes, clear like autumn waters, felt a slight stir. He had a penchant for beauty. However, noticing Adrian Law’s chilly gaze, he quickly diverted his eyes.
"It’s like this, Miss Vaughn. President Sinclair, Vice President Sanders, and I are no longer shareholders of your company. We ca specifically to deliver the equity transfer docunts to you personally."
Before President Alden finished speaking, President Sinclair, who had been quietly standing by, stepped forward, courteously handing over three docunts.
"Please have a look, Miss Vaughn."
Who would believe in this world, soone would rush to give away their shares?
Cecilia Vaughn was already dazed by the big news, but she was no fool. Seeing the man beside her, holding her hand tightly, how could she not guess who orchestrated this?
She silently mouthed to Adrian Law.
——What other surprises do you have for ?
Seeing Adrian Law gaze at her with a smile, his eyes seed filled with countless stars, but he only smiled silently. Cecilia Vaughn knew it wasn’t appropriate to ask much in public, so she shrugged and turned to smile at the three forr shareholders.
"Oh, alright. Thank you for taking the ti, especially President Alden, who just got off a plane, that’s quite sothing, I’m flattered."
Cecilia Vaughn collected the three docunts, while Wyatt Law placed them in the seat of the Bugatti Veyron for her.
President Alden, being a straightforward person, chuckled while smoothing his beard.
"Nonsense, Miss Vaughn. If there’s an opportunity, I’d like to invite you and The Eldest Young Master Law to dinner. Upon seeing such a perfect couple, it felt like old friends at first sight!"
This flattery was spot on!
Vice President Sanders and President Sinclair couldn’t help but smirk, quickly stepping forward warmly.
"As they say, it’s better to have an impromptu eting than a planned one. How about we host dinner tonight?"
...
Coincidentally, other shareholders ca out of the eting room, and since Cecilia Vaughn and Adrian Law were blocked by President Sinclair and the others with cars also in the way, they only saw these three affluent executives enthusiastically inviting them for sothing.
"Isn’t that President Alden from Dreamchaser Group? Oh, Vice President Sanders and President Sinclair are here too. I thought they weren’t coming!"
"Who holds such influence, gathering their smiles and attention like that?"
The shareholders puzzled, but as they approached, they heard the conversation from Vice President Sanders and the others.
"Miss Vaughn, adding 18% of our shares to yours gets you up to 50%, making you the undisputed leader of Radiant Group!"
"Miss Vaughn, you’re so talented. Wouldn’t you join Young Master Law for dinner?"
Seeing Cecilia Vaughn courteously decline, Vice President Sanders and the others left a bit disappointed.
...
Transferred all their shares?
Goodness, President Sinclair and the likes were tough nuts to crack, even dismissing Gregory Vaughn’s face. Now they’re paving the way for a younger generation!
What trendous prospects lie ahead?
Other shareholders who overheard were gaping at Cecilia Vaughn. Those quick to think reacted imdiately, rushing forward.
"Miss Vaughn, don’t leave. Earlier in the eting, you ntioned having an interest in entering the film industry. Have you considered partnering with Elysian Fields Casino for a strong alliance?"
"Miss Vaughn, do you rember ? I’m Chairman Lowell of the Prosperity Syndicate. I used to hold you as a child!"
"Miss Vaughn, you seem to have extensive knowledge of jewelry. Would Phoenix Jewelry have the honor to collaborate with you?"
