Chapter 128

Chapter 128:

The Johns family quickly became aware of the news as well. In the morning, the mood at the breakfast table was noticeably gloomy.

Dane passed some food to Elaine and said calmly, “Mom, don’t stress. A woman like Tatiana isn’t worth our attention. Howard has already seen through her false facade. And about her relationship with Corbett… Don’t fret. They’re not going to enjoy their time together.”

Elaine was unable to express her anger, but she understood the implications. Corbett was a significant figure. If Tatiana was truly involved with Corbett, she would soon be on par with the Johns family. It made sense now why Tatiana’s mother was bold enough to break off the engagement.

“An ungrateful woman like Tatiana won’t be cherished by any discerning family. And Corbett…” Elaine shook her head. She was a smart woman. With Corbett’s stature, he would never choose someone like Tatiana once her true character was revealed.

“Howard has been undergoing rehabilitation training recently. He might make a recovery soon.” Madisyn added some food to Elaine’s plate and continued, “Dad, Mom, Dane, don’t be too concerned.”

“Madisyn, you’re incredible. I couldn’t get through to Howard previously.” Dane looked at her with a soft expression.

Suddenly, his phone rang. He sighed after taking the call.

“What’s the matter?” Elaine inquired.

“With Kristine gone, the company now requires a vice president. Someone needs to manage the division she previously handled.”

“Let’s find a replacement quickly,” Elaine suggested.

Dane glanced at Madisyn. As she nibbled on a sausage, Madisyn returned Dane’s look, her bright, wide eyes reflecting her puzzlement.

Dane smiled and said, “I think Madisyn would be a great fit. The vice president of the Johns Group earns a substantial yearly salary. Want to give it a try?”

“I think I can handle it,” Madisyn responded. Natural Beauty was now running smoothly, so she didn’t need to worry about it.

Elaine was concerned about Madisyn exhausting herself, but knowing her exceptional capabilities, she could only watch as Madisyn prepared to join the Johns Group.

It was Madisyn’s first visit to the headquarters of the Johns Group. In the center of Gemond, three towering buildings stood impressively tall.

“Those buildings are ours?” Madisyn instinctively assumed one of the towering buildings belonged to the Johns Group.

Dane chuckled and said, “They’re all ours.”

Madisyn realized she had underestimated the Johns Group’s influence. The wealthiest family in Gemond truly was remarkable.

Upon entering the company, Dane introduced her to the various divisions. Kristine had previously managed the entertainment company. The Johns Group’s three most lucrative ventures were real estate, investment, and entertainment.

“You’re free to choose a different division if you wish.”

Madisyn pondered briefly and said, “No need. I like the entertainment company. I’ll start at the entry level.”

Dane held Madisyn in high regard. He knew that even starting at the entry level, she’d rise quickly.

“Alright. Let’s get your onboarding started.”

Dane expedited Madisyn’s onboarding process and planned to introduce her to the general manager of the entertainment company.

Just then, Dane’s work phone rang once more. Since he was the president of the group, his schedule was packed. Therefore, Madisyn didn’t let him accompany her to the entertainment company.

Dane instructed his assistant, “Let everyone know that my sister is now at Edge Entertainment.”

“Understood, Mr. Johns. I’ll let them know immediately.” The assistant promptly called the general manager of Edge Entertainment. “Yes, she is Mr. Dane Johns’s sister. She’s very beautiful, dressed in a dark blue suit jacket and wearing a diamond necklace… Please make sure she’s treated well.”

The entertainment branch of the Johns Group was known as Edge Entertainment, which was currently ranked second in the industry. It boasted numerous award-winning actors and actresses.

On her way there, Madisyn pondered the current standing of the company. Given Edge Entertainment’s resources, it should be the top company in Gemond. What had caused it to fall behind another? What had Kristine been doing while she managed the company?

“Puff!” Suddenly, Madisyn’s train of thought was interrupted as someone bumped into her.

“Oh, I’m so sorry!” The woman appeared flustered as she accidentally spilled milk on Madisyn’s clothes. “I’ve stained your outfit. What should I do? How much do your clothes cost? I’ll cover it.”

Dressed simply and looking earnest, the woman was clearly distressed. Madisyn shook her head and replied, “It’s not valuable. No need to pay.”

“Miss, you’re truly generous.” The woman expressed her gratitude. “How about I clean the suit jacket for you and then return it?”

Her offer was heartfelt. Madisyn couldn’t say no, so she removed her suit jacket.

They exchanged phone numbers.

Now without her suit jacket, Madisyn noticed the blue diamond necklace she wore seemed too eye-catching, so she removed it too.

Upon reaching Edge Entertainment, she headed to the marketing department and saw several people standing at attention by the door.

She arched an eyebrow. She hadn’t wanted Dane to accompany her, as she aimed to maintain a low profile. However, from the looks of it, everyone already knew who she was.
