Chapter 726 âYouâre really good at laying it on thick!â Hans said for the umpteenth time today.
âNo, that ainât flattery, mate. I genuinely think youâre rad.â Molly was saying that when someone passed by. She stopped talking and escorted Hans to the companyâs entrance, expressing deep gratitude towards him.
Once Hans was gone, Molly called Arabella.
âBella, Iâve got a shindig tonight. You reckon this dress suits the occasion?â
âWhat kind of party?â
Not knowing what the occasion was, she wasnât sure if the dress would be appropriate.
Molly explained, âMy grandpa set it up before he passed. Whenever thereâs a new management team, the old board members and shareholders throw a welcome bash.â
Getting the picture, Arabella said promptly, âIn that case, the dress is spot on.â
âBella, I got to thank you,â Molly couldnât resist saying âIf it wasnât for you, Hans wouldnât have brought me back home, wouldnât have stood up for me when those old farts on the board gave me a hard time. And heâs even willing to attend tonightâs party. You donât know how much that means. Itâs basically a chance for the new CEO to show off their connections.â
This was really surprising.
Thank goodness Hans agreed to go. Otherwise, she would be looked down on by those old geezers again.
After hearing her out, Arabella replied gently, âIâll have Jaime represent QY tonight. Iâve got some stuff to take care of.â
Molly exclaimed, âWhat? No, I mean.â
âI know,â Arabella chuckled, âheâll discuss a possible collaboration with you.â
Another collaboration?
Molly was at a loss for words, then filled with gratitude, âBella, how is your family so nice. Hans also wants to collaborate. I know my own capabilities. Our small company doesnât have much to offer you guys.
It must be because of their friendship that Hans and Bella were willing to help her.
âYou earned your third place. Thatâs a great achievement,â Arabella replied with a smile. âAnyway, Iâve got things to do. If you need help tonight, just turn to Hans.â
Molly responded, âAlright.â
After hanging up, Arabella turned to the man beside her.
Even though she and Romeo had safely returned, some forces had infiltrated Solterra, searching for her whereabouts.
She didnât want to put Molly in danger.
So she couldnât show up tonight.
At eight oâclock that evening.
The celebration was held on the top floor of the Summerfield Hotel.
Many shareholders and board members arrived early, eager to see Molly squirm.
They gossiped, âThe girlâs just too immature, has no respect for time. Look at all these board members and shareholders waiting for her. She thinks sheâs something else now that sheâs CEO.â
âExactly, youngsters these days just donât get it. No matter how high and mighty she is, without anyone backing her, whereâs the dignity?â
âLook at the night view of Summerfield, and itâs gorgeous. Only those at the top can appreciate this unique beauty.â
Just then, someone announced, âPresident Molly is here.â
Everyone turned to look at her. Molly was wearing a colorâblocked strapless dress. One side was an extreme black, giving a relaxed vibe, and the other was peachâpink, giving a girly charm. The clash of the two styles was stunning.
