Chapter 1227
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Enter title⦠â âStefan!â Renee roared as she barged into the headquarters of H Group angrily.
Immediately, everyone turned to her, but nobody dared to do anything because she was their presidentâs ex-wife.
At last, Elijah, Stefanâs assistant, blocked her and said politely, âMrs.Hunt, Mr.Hunt is having a meeting.
Please go and wait in the reception room.â âIâm not Mrs.
Hunt! Donât talk nonsense!â Renee snapped and rolled up her sleeves menacingly.
âIâll count to three, and if Stefan doesnât come out by then, Iâm going to destroy this building.
One, twoâ¦â âUmmâ¦â Everyone looked at each other in panic, not sure of what to do.
âItâs okay, Mrs.Hunt, Iâll inform Mr.
Hunt that youâre here,â Elijah said quickly.
He was aware of how violent Renee was, so he decided to take the risk and inform Stefan that she was here.
Although Stefan was hard to deal with, he was much gentler than Renee, so Elijah would rather face his wrath instead.
Stefan was currently under pressure because Carmine Pawnshopâs treasure ship had been attacked.
It was not his doing, but now everyone claimed that it was him.
The media was condemning him, and even the shareholders of H Group unknowingly criticised his impulsiveness and ignorance of the companyâs image.
âMr.Hunt, thereâs an emergency.â Elijah opened the door of the conference room under the fierce glare of many superiors.
He then gestured for them to stop before he bowed and walked over to Stefan.
âMiss Everheart is waiting for you outside.
She seems very angry, and even claimed that sheâll destroy H Group if you donât meet her immediately.â Stefan was not surprised at all, and smirked in interest.
âLet her do it then.â âMr. Hunt, Iâm not kidding.
Sheâs perfectly capable of destroying this place,â Elijah protested, his face going pale.
âThere are sixty-six floors here, so kindly remind her to destroy all of them.
If she gets tired, get some drinks and dessert for her.
Donât let her tire herself out,â Stefan said pleasantly.
Elijah and the shareholders were speechless.
Elijah took a deep breath.
He knew that he could not make Stefan go and meet Renee now, so he just nodded and said weakly, âOkay, Iâll tell her.
Just donât forget that it was you who signed up for this.â After Elijah walked out of the conference room, Stefan looked around calmly.
âNow⦠where were we? Do you want to collect evidence and ask the police officers to arrest the Night Demon in exchange for the publicâs good impression of us? Is that how you want to improve H Groupâs image?â âYes, Mr. Hunt.
Thatâs the best solution we came up with after endless discussions.â âYeah, Carmine Pawnshop was established by relying on shady businesses.
Even though theyâve been doing things legally these past two years, Iâm sure weâll find something if we do a little digging.
Thatâs the only way to deal with unscrupulous organisations like this.â âNow the public thinks that you ruined the Night Demonâs face, and that heâs the victim here.
Theyâve labelled you as a demon and forgot about how horrible that man really is.
So, we need to focus on that and turn the public opinion.â The shareholders had brainstormed with the PR department to come up with this solution.
They were determined to ruin Carmine Pawnshop and arrest the Night Demon.
Stefan rested his chin on his hands, and thought about it for a while.
Finally, he said, âLetâs take things slow for now.â âWhat?! Do you think we havenât suffered enough?
