“Mr. Roborts knows about it in detail. I’m sure you won’t be telling this to Elodie, will you?”
Mr. Roborts was finally mentioned!
It wasn’t just any normal person, it was Emma’s husband, the CEO of Kaleidoscope, Eric.
Thinking of this, Mother Pembroke felt a cold chill down her spine. It turned out, the plan that she thought was flawless had long been discovered by Mr. Roborts.
Meanwhile, the Pembroke Family had been playing into the palm of his hands with no ability to fight back. If she had known that Eric was this frightening, she would not have provoked Emma. It had been so long since the incident with Emma, yet they had been lured one step at a time into Eric’s trap…
Although after being with Emma, Eric was known as a wife-doting husband, it did not change his ruthless nature.
His gentleness was left entirely for Emma.
“Mrs Pembroke, let me remind you, if the Pembroke Family decides to do anything else…”
“I wouldn’t dare,” Mother Pembroke immediately shook her hands. She had already been warned by Eric in such a way, how could she dare to provoke Emma again?
“In this entire world, the Madam is the one that our President loves the most. Yet, someone had to hurt her. Our President has always stuck to his words. If anyone dares to provoke him, he is always ready to play with them. But, if someone dares to provoke the Madam, he would completely destroy them. I wish you all the best.” After speaking, the young man left holding his briefcase while Mother Pembroke stood dumbfounded in disbelief.
Oh God…
Only now did she know how scary Eric was.
Most importantly, Elodie was still planning to challenge Emma. If Eric knew about everything at the hospital from the start, then Elodie was definitely in the palm of his hands as well. Could she still dream of sitting in the top spot of Miller Corps?
Elodie, let’s just wait and see your fate.
…
After the matter with the Pembroke Family was resolved, Eric was merely notified of the result. As soon as he found out that everything went smoothly, he simply said to the young lawyer, “As soon as we have their shares in our hands, sell it directly to their biggest competitor.”
This type of torture was bound to drive the Pembroke Family crazy!
For the sake of his child, he held back a little.
Eric felt that he had already gone easy on them…
Easy!
If the Pembroke Family found out that this was what Eric considered as easy, they wouldn’t no whether to laugh or cry.
…
A few days passed and there was still no news of Bertha. Meanwhile, with the Acting CEO leading the way, Miller Corps remained stable. At this time, Elder Miller returned from ‘Switzerland’ empty-handed.
Seeing the exhausted old man enter the house, Elodie immediately latched onto the opportunity to kneel quietly before him with tears in her eyes.
“Elodie, what’s wrong?” Elder Miller immediately bent over and asked.
“Grandfather, I accidentally went overboard at the board meeting again. I didn’t actually want to be the Acting CEO, I was simply anxious about the crisis that we were facing. Grandfather, please don’t blame me for what happened,” Elodie apologized sincerely.
“I know that you are worried about Miller Corps, but be careful not to hurt my grandson,” Elder Miller said as he helped Elodie up. “Leave Miller Corps for someone else to handle. You just focus on keeping your body healthy, don’t worry about anything else.”
“But…I embarrassed myself this time,” Elodie was referring to the humiliation she suffered from the people at the office.
Elder Miller shook his head and waved her off, “That’s nothing, don’t take it to heart.”
“But, grandfather, am I really that useless? Can’t I make any contribution to Miller Corps at all?”
Elder Miller tried to understand the intention behind Elodie’s words. Suddenly, he found that he couldn’t quite predict what she was planning.
“Grandfather, can I join the planning department to get some experience?”
Join the planning department?
Elder Miller contemplated for a second before he used her pregnancy as an excuse to reject her request, “After you give birth, you can go to whatever department you want. But for now, you better stay at home and take care of your pregnancy.”
Elder Miller expected Elodie to be persistent with her request, but she surprisingly nodded her head, “OK. Since grandfather thinks I should get some rest, then I will stop worrying about other things and take good care of my baby and I.”
Elder Miller analyzed Elodie for a second, but did not say another word. He knew, underneath her innocent mask, was a heart as vicious and poisonous as a snake.
“By the way grandfather, I’ve gotten a divorce!”
“What?” Elder Miller was surprised by the news. Although he knew the Pembroke Family weren’t great, it was also the family that Elodie had desperately tried to join. She had persisted with them for so many years and got nothing in return, yet now she suddenly decided to get a divorce in such a calm manner.
This was not normal for Elodie!
“The Pembroke Family are currently hanging by a thread and pestering me for money. I couldn’t stand it anymore so I requested for a divorce.”
Elder Miller did not respond as he quietly turned around and walked into his study room. Not long after, he made a phone call to Emma and told her everything about Elodie.
“Emma, I feel like something isn’t right.”
Emma also felt that something wasn’t right. Not only was it unusual for Elodie to get a divorce, even if she had the courage to do it, the Pembroke Family weren’t easy to shake off. At least, it wouldn’t have come to such a simple and peaceful end.
“Grandfather, be careful,” Emma warned.
“I know what to do, don’t worry.”
After hearing Elder Miller’s reassurance, Emma put down her phone in a daze. If she let Elodie escape her troubles so easily, then she wasn’t the ever advancing Emma!
…
“According to our sources, the CEO of Miller Corps, Bertha, is reported to be still missing. It seems, Miller Corps is destined for quite a crisis.”
“In other news, the disaster film starring Emma, ‘W.H.’, is due for release on December 4th. This film is already a hit before its even been released and is highly anticipated by film fans!”
“I hope that Emma will find her mother soon and return to the film industry. I’m sure everyone already misses her.”
Emma no longer appeared on the big screen, but, she was still the hottest topic on a variety of news sources.
After all, this atypical woman always seemed to always use her own unique methods to pave her own path.
“We just received another piece of news regarding Miller Corps…”
“A few days before Miller Corps’ Annual Product Launch, a list of invited VIPs have been surprisingly leaked. It is still unsure who revealed this information, but this list will definitely ignite displeasure amongst consumers and the VIPs are expected to be especially upset by this.”
