The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 660
Rumor also had it that the television company was owned by a fairly young woman who had an astounding background. In fact, she was so influential that even the powerful television company meant nothing to her.
While the rumor had spread like wildfire, nobody actually knew if it was the truth. After all, nobody had even seen her before.
This was why the TV station was quite concerned about the event. Even all the furniture in the function hall had to be perfectly arranged. This was proof of how concerned the station was.
What more, several celebrities would also be participating. It was definitely going to be a lively event.
While everyone was preoccupied with making sure that the hall was perfectly decorated, Mr. Hill clapped his hands loudly before telling the interns and the crew members to stop for a moment.
âGather round, everyone! I have some news for all of you!â
Hearing that, everyone did as instructed.
âTodayâs VIP is a very special person indeed! All of the crew members have to be extra careful today!â
âRegarding who gets to be the prize presenter, Iâll personally pick one of the interns to do it. However, the person who gets picked will have to be even more careful since youâll be interacting with our VIP!â
said Mr. Hill who seemed equally as nervous.
âWe fully support you, Hallie!â shouted a group of people from within the crowd.
All of them seemed to be popular rich heirs. They were clearly here to support Hallie since they had permission to enter the hall.
Quite a number of other guests had arrived as well, including a few big bosses from Yanken and Modow.
The corner of Mr. Hillâs lips twitched when he heard that. However, he only smiled awkwardly before saying, âIâve discussed this with the TV station and all of us have decided to give this opportunity to Mila!â
âAll the best, Mila!â said Mr. Hill. He obviously had high hopes for her.
Mila simply nodded in response.
âI disagree!â shouted Hallie, sounding incredibly upset. Only the best intern would get chosen to be the prize presenter and that was clearly her! It was obvious that she was feeling nervous since she hadnât been selected.
âYou have other responsibilities to attend to, Hallie. Why are you disagreeing?â
Mr. Hill was well aware of Hallieâs background, which was why he was careful with his tone and words.
âIâm not saying that I want the post, but anyone else other than this thief can have the role! Choosing her would be an insult to the VIP!â replied Hallie.
âThief? What do you mean by that?â asked Mr. Hill, his tone much stricter than before.
âWell, I was going to report the incident to you last night but I wasnât able to. See, Mila stole Xyleenaâs diamond ring which was a gift from her boyfriend! All of us present at the time saw that the ring was under her pillow!â explained Hallie as the other girls nodded.
Nobody wouldâve believed her if they hadnât seen the ring there with their own eyes.
âBecause of that, Mila shouldnât be qualified to be on stage!â
âThatâs right! How could someone like her be allowed to go on stage?â
âMight as well just throw her out! Sheâs just a disgraceful thief after all!â
âYeah! Sheâs just dishonoring us interns!â
The ones who were shouting those comments were all interns who were evidently jealous of Mila.
âBut I really didnât steal it⦠I didnâtâ¦â said Mila as she faced all their accusations and disdain.
