Chapter 339
You Hit My Heart
The director shook his head, "No. Luther didn't do that. I'm sorry, I
voted yes 100."
Jacqueline was extremely shocked, and the delicate makeup on her
face was almost distorted, her whole body was shaking with anger, "We
have known each other for so long, so why you donât just give me an
explanation?"
"Joyce is not quite what you are talking about. She is very talented and
at the board meeting today she showed us her driverless pedestrian
avoidance technology. Once her design gets into production, the
benefits are incalculable. Business is what we all care about, and we
invest for the returns. There is no reason to oppose her. I'm sorry.â The
director finished and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't want to
reveal any more.
Jacqueline's entire body was petrified in place.
She felt like a clown, abandoned by the world.
Shelly also heard it and reluctantly clutched Jacquelineâs arm.
At that moment, Luther stepped out and announced, "Directors, please
stay. The group will be hosting a banquet for Joyce tomorrow night at
Riveria Haze, and I'd like to invite everyone here to join us. I will send
you all an invitation."
The directors, in unison, agreed and then left the room.
When Jacqueline saw that the crowd was almost gone, she hurriedly
questioned Luther, "What do you mean? She's already on the board,
and you want to throw a big party and invite celebrities? The upper
class? Political celebrities? The news media? What are you trying to
do? Take advantage of the opportunity to let more people know about
Joyce?"
Luther didn't answer, but waved to Casey.
Casey immediately approached, "Luther, what can I do for you?"
Luther ordered, "We don't have much time already. Tomorrow night we
are going to hold a banquet, and I need you to send invitations to
everyone - social celebrities, upper-class people, politicians, news
media, just everyone. Get on with it."
"Yes." Casey hurriedly left.
Jacqueline was dumbfounded, what did he mean by that?
It was then that Luther looked over at Jacqueline and hooked up a
smile, âThanks for the reminder to make it a grand affair.â
Jacqueline was so angry that her son had grown up to be against her in
every way.
âIf you do something like this, you're just going around making your
relationship with Joyce public. What do you think Charlotte should do?
What do you think the Heath family should do?" She was so angry that
her whole body was shaking.
âI will explain to the Heath family myself. You donât worry about it."
Jacqueline almost collapsed on the spot, what does that mean?
She couldn't understand her son more and more. What was he trying to
do?
Luther saw Shelly shrinking behind Jacqueline, he glared at Shelly,
âI've arranged a new job for you. You go to the sales department
tomorrow, and don't waste your time anymore. We have got elites in
the Warner family, look at yourself now. What have you become? If you
keep being like this, I'll send you abroad again!"
Shelly's eyes were red all of a sudden. Since Joyce appeared, her
status in the eyes of her brother plummeted, and every time she had to
be lectured by him. She was no longer her brother's beloved sister.
âYes! I am just not as good as Joyce, and I am useless. Are you
satisfied?!" With red and swollen eyes, she cried and turned to run
away.
Luther frowned, shook his head helplessly, and strode away.
âLuther, you've gone too far!"
Jacqueline shouted angrily at his back.
Unfortunately, Luther didn't look back.
Jacqueline clenched her fists, âVery well, you want to hold a big party
just for this Joyce? Then don't blame me for making Joyce's
scandalous story public on the spot!â
