Free Web NovelChapter 2607: Chapter 80: Revenge
Outside the Royal Garden, Molly Wellington was striding quickly in her slender high heels.
It wasn’t until she reached Charles Taylor’s flashy blue Maserati that she angrily kicked the front of the car twice.
"Hey, hey, hey, lady, what are you doing... you, you, you, stop!" Charles Taylor hurried over from behind and, seeing his beloved car being ’trampled’ by Molly Wellington, quickly grabbed her shoulders to pull her away.
"What, can’t I kick your car’s front a couple of times?" Molly Wellington raised her gaze, her almond-shaped eyes lacking the usual icy elegance, instead showing a bit of her childhood arrogance and defiance.
Charles Taylor shrank his neck and said through gritted teeth with a blood-dripping heart, "You can, of course, you can. I was just worried you’d hurt your foot. It’s just a car, you can kick it if you want. Just don’t hurt yourself over a man who’s not worth it."
"Who said it was for him." Molly Wellington’s expression changed, and she pushed Charles Taylor away.
Charles Taylor muttered, "I didn’t even say who it was, and you already knew it was him."
"What did you say?" The woman’s almond-shaped eyes slightly darkened.
Charles Taylor quickly waved his hand, "I didn’t say anything, you misheard. I was just saying... it’s a pity that the Stellar Haven acquisition case didn’t work out this time."
Molly Wellington: "You still have the nerve to say that? That’s exactly why I’m angry. I was about to leave, and why didn’t you stop me? You’re the dignified CEO of the branch, I’m just your secretary. Even if I said not to go through with the acquisition, you could have stopped me as the CEO and continued negotiating the acquisition case. I even gave you a look, and you totally missed it."
"I..." Charles Taylor truly had no way to defend himself.
He completely didn’t understand Molly Wellington’s intent and thought her glare was warning him not to speak carelessly.
It was really awkward.
Charles Taylor could only soothe, "Forget it, if it doesn’t work out here, we’ll find other places to acquire. Stellar Haven isn’t very..."
"No, Stellar Haven is the oldest shopping mall in H city. Don’t be fooled by its current state, but its location is perfect and its reputation and nostalgia among the citizens can’t be matched by other malls. This is a reputation built over decades, along with shopping habits. No matter what, we must acquire Stellar Haven. I’ll think of another way."
After speaking, Molly Wellington flicked her hair and walked towards the car.
Charles Taylor quickly went up to open the car door for ’Queen Molly’.
And this scene just happened to be witnessed by someone who had just come out of the club.
That person’s blue eyes swept a deeply gloomy glance over.

The next day, at the Royal Palace Group.
Because the previous night, after Molly Wellington went home, she pulled an all-nighter drafting a new acquisition plan to address the new situation following Loyalty Group’s stake in Stellar Haven.
So that morning, Secretary Wellington, rarely, took a leave and didn’t come to work.
Around ten in the morning, neither the CEO nor Secretary Wellington came, allowing Stella Brown in the CEO’s Secretary Office to slack off a bit.
"Hey, what do you think... It’s normal for the CEO not to come, but how come Secretary Wellington isn’t here either? Last night, I saw them both change into formal attire and leave in the car together. It looked like they were going to some formal event. Could it be they went to the ball together and just happened to go back to the CEO’s place at night? Tsk, this Secretary Wellington, pretending to be all serious usually, who would’ve thought she’s this kind of person too."
"Stella, don’t speak carelessly. Secretary Wellington is not like that."
"What do you mean not like that? Maybe she’s just putting on a dignified facade in public, but in private, she’s seducing the boss..." Stella Brown rolled her eyes in disregard, hiding her jealousy inside.
She was just browsing gossip webpages when a new article suddenly popped up, and she immediately exclaimed.
"Ah, isn’t that Sophie from Stellar Haven!"
Because Royal Palace is now focusing on the acquisition of Stellar Haven, the employees at Royal Palace are very familiar with Stellar Haven’s boss.
The other colleagues, hearing Stella Brown’s excited voice, could not help but glance at her computer screen.
On the screen, there was a huge headline—This morning, the boss of Stellar Haven was found sleeping on the bustling city street, wearing only his underwear and dressed lightly.
[Update completed, see you tomorrow night]
