Chapter 494 Announcemen
I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband
Everyone present at the event, most especially the ladies and the media, couldnât help but stare at them in a daze. The two men standing in front were dazzling, as if the moon and the sun stood there together, creating lights bright enough to make anyone subconsciously cover their eyes.
They were surprised but actually, not that much because they all thought that it was quite obvious. They thought that it was only to be expected that the younger brother was just as good looking as the big brother. This combination was almost too much to handle for everyone, especially the ladies.
"Ahh, my eyes!! These gods are too much!!"
"We canât fantasize about the CEO anymore but oh my god, my broken heart has finally mended. I didnât know Mr. Chen was hiding such a beautiful man all this time!"
"Thatâs right, thatâs right! This is our chance!"
"Oh god, heâs so handsome! So beautiful! The King already has his queen so letâs go after the prince!"
As the ladies continued fantasizing within themselves, Zaki spoke. He welcomed all the guests and expressed his gratitude and after that, Sei asked Zaki to follow him.
"Come, letâs go meet the president and CEOâs." he said and Zaki could only walk beside him as they both headed towards the guests.
"Sei, at least give me a hint on what it is you are planning." Zaki swiftly confronted Sei as they walked and Sei simply glanced at him.
"Are you saying you still donât have any idea on whatâs going on?"
"Well, I have an inkling but..."
"But what?"
When Zaki didnât reply, Sei halted and looked at him with a serious gaze. Zaki stared back at him and after a moment, he secretly sighed. It seemed that it only took one serious look from Sei and he could only give in.
"Okay, I got it, I got it." he surrendered and Sei simply said the word "good" before they went and mingled with the high profile personalities Sei had invited.
Time passed and the party was going smoothly as planned. Hinari was with Madam Chen and the graceful madam was proudly introducing Hinari to her friends as her future second daughter-in-law.
Hinari could see the surprise, disappointment and envy in those womenâs eyes as they looked at her. It looked like theyâve been planning to introduce their daughters to Zaki after finally knowing about his existence. Some of the women gave up but a lot still looked like they werenât convinced at all, as if they were saying that what the madam was saying was a lie.
Hinari quite understood it since nobody among them knew about her engagement to Zaki yet but she didnât care despite the animosity they were already throwing her. She instead smiled with confidence, looking at them as though telling them the words, âyou people donât have even 0.1% of chance. Because beauty is already 1 million % mine! Just you guys wait, I will crush all your delusions into ashes soon.â
As the party finally reached its final phase, the king, Sei, once again took over the stage with Zaki beside him.
"One of the reasons why I invited you all here was because we wanted to announce to everyone a big achievement. I am proud to announce that the Zhao Corporation is now under Red Empire."
As soon as those words left Seiâs lips, the first reaction from everyone was a gasp, even the old CEOâs eyes widened in disbelief. They couldnât believe that Chen Seiji also acquired another giant company under his name. Within a short span of time, the giant company he founded, the Red Empire Corporation had turned into a conglomerate, taking the huge Chen Corporation and the Mikazuki Industries under it. Now, he actually acquired another giant and it was the oldest and one of the biggest companies; the Zhao Corporation?! How much of a monster was this man? How could he do all this like nobodyâs business?
The announcement was indeed a shock. The CEOâs who were desperately looking for a chance to compete with Sei, lost their slightest hope in a single announcement by him. They all knew that the merger of four giant corporations were now impossible for them to overtake. Right now, the Red Empire wasnât just the largest in East Asia anymore. At this moment, the already mighty image of Sei in their eyes turned even mightier and even more powerful than before. He was now invincible in their eyes. Indeed, this man, the founder, the chairman, the CEO of Red Empire was a monster, an unbeatable monster.
But the surprise didnât end there as Sei continued his announcement.
"Also, from this day forward, my younger brother, Zaki, is now the new president of the Red Empire Conglomerate." He said and another gasp echoed.
