Chapter 4969
Harvey and Leona saw someone throwing a pair of scissors to the ground. The scissors were supposed to be used to cut the ribbon during the ceremony.
Objects made out of pure gold were relatively softer. The scissors, a symbol of the project’s wealth, were destroyed instantly.
A higher-up who saw it immediately walked over.
“Do you think you can destroy the things here just because you’re a star? Can you compensate for the damages if the project doesn’t take off?!”
Slap!
A beautiful woman with gorgeous makeup and a striking figure stepped forward, and slapped the higher- up in the face.
“I’ve been waiting for ten whole minutes for this event! So what if I broke your stupid scissors?” she screeched.
The higher-up’s face darkened instantly. Everyone else looked at each other; they didn’t dare to stop the woman at all.
The workers behind her bore pompous expressions as they watched. They looked as if the woman had done no wrong.
“Golden Estate’s pretty impressive!
“You’ve begged for so long just to have Ms. Violet cut the ribbon!
“It’s bad enough that you’re not giving her the main spotlight! Now, you’re even asking her to wait for more than ten minutes!
“Don’t you know that Ms. Violet’s time is worth thousands of dollars?
“We’ll settle scores sooner or later!
“It doesn’t matter if the ceremony’s a success or not! You people have to pay the fees according to the contract!
“If not, you’ll be receiving a legal letter soon enough!”
The workers felt smug after hearing those words.
Harvey stopped in his tracks, and threw a confused look at Leona.
Leona chuckled bitterly.
“That’s Violet. She’s the star I was talking about.
“She’s the spokesperson for one of our major suppliers. The supplier recommended her to us to get more traffic. I didn’t have any reason to decline at the time, so…
“The man in front of her is our head of the Publicity Department, Casen Bierstadt.
“He’s a hardworking man, but he’s just a little too old- school. He kept saying that only you were allowed to stand here, and that Violet had no right for that.
“Because of that, Violet’s team had been arguing with Casen for a long time.
“I got someone to talk to Violet, and she finally calmed down.
“I didn’t think she’d act like this in recent days…
“After looking into her, I found out that she got along with the Foster family.
“She must’ve been acting all high and mighty because she thought she could become the mistress of the family.
“She said she’d leave immediately if she wasn’t in the main spotlight of the event.
“Since she came early, she kept using that as an excuse to make things harder for us…”
Leona showed Harvey an apologetic expression.
“Sorry for ruining your mood, Sir York. I’ll go handle this right now.”
