Remarried Wife: She will Remarry, But Another Person-Chapter 174: She Suits My Taste More

At the summit venue, after Sabrina received her award, the process continued.

After she stepped down, many other companies went up to receive awards and give speeches.

Even The Hawthorne Group was no exception.

When the host announced on stage that The Hawthorne Group received the award for the fifth generation of the Red Warmth System, Sabrina’s lips pressed tightly together.

Josee directly sneered, "Does The Hawthorne Group even have the face to accept this award?"

Upon hearing this, Poppy beside him couldn’t help but ask curiously, "I heard this system was developed when Sabrina was still there. Is that true?"

Sabrina nodded, not denying it, "Yes, it is."

When Poppy looked back at the stage, she didn’t know what to say.

No matter if The Hawthorne Group had the face for it or not, they still went on stage and started delivering their acceptance speech.

Poppy listened, only feeling that The Hawthorne Group was even thicker-skinned than she imagined.

Sabrina brought them so much benefit, yet after using her, they discarded her, and now they even have the face to go up...

As time passed, the award ceremony approached its end.

Everyone thought it was going to end soon.

At this moment, the host on stage announced another award.

It’s an award comparable to Sabrina’s.

"This award belongs to Elysian Group. Now, please come on stage to receive it!"

Upon hearing the name Elysian Group, the crowd refreshed their spirits, applause thundered, everyone wanting to see the legendary Ninth Master.

But they were disappointed.

Jasper had already left.

The person receiving the award on behalf of Elysian Group was Secretary Lynch.

Upon seeing Secretary Lynch appear and accept the trophy on behalf of Elysian Group, the crowd was again in an uproar.

"Elysian Group must have such a grand presence for even their award representative to be someone like Secretary Lynch..."

"I can understand, after all, Elysian Group isn’t just any small company."

"Indeed, and look at where their developed products are applied."

"That’s true..."

Those surprised quickly calmed down.

The ceremony continued until 5 PM, finally concluding.

The crowd moved to the banquet hall next door. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Sabrina was with Josee and Poppy.

On the side of the lounge.

After the conference ended, Secretary Lynch hurried over to meet Jasper.

"Ninth Master."

Secretary Lynch’s attitude was very respectful as he offered the trophy, "The task you entrusted has been accomplished without fail."

Jasper slightly nodded and replied politely, "Thank you, Secretary Lynch, please have a seat."

Secretary Lynch courteously sat opposite him and then smiled, "You coming here personally today certainly added glory to this summit venue."

Jasper spoke calmly, "That’s not the case. The enterprises attending today are all very powerful, and there are many rising stars. I’m sure you’ll find satisfactory cooperation prospects."

Secretary Lynch smiled courteously, "You’re humble. The other enterprises indeed have solid strengths, but no matter how formidable, they can’t compare to Elysian Group.

Nonetheless, you mentioned it, so you must have paid attention to the summit.

Among these many enterprises today, which one caught your eye, Ninth Master?"

These words carried some probing intent.

If they got a personal recommendation from Jasper, there wouldn’t be any fear of pitfalls.

Jasper didn’t expect Secretary Lynch to directly ask him.

He raised an eyebrow, not sparing any detours, "N.Z. Tech, their system, I’ve seen it too, it’s indeed impressive.

The upper echelon already intends to integrate it into the special operations medical system.

The President Hayes over there is a rare talent, and several other established enterprises are good, stable with consistent breakthroughs... as for the rest, there’s not much impression."

Secretary Lynch’s eyes lit up slightly, then he asked, "What about The Hawthorne Group? What’s your view?"

When Jasper heard this name, his expression turned somewhat playful, "The Hawthorne Group?"

"Yes."

Secretary Lynch nodded.

He was a native of Veridia, having dealt with The Hawthorne Group many times over the years.

The list of enterprises to be included in the evaluation plan had been set.

But final confirmation required the nod from the person before him.

The Hawthorne side was interested and had previously probed, so he tentatively asked.

No matter how, The Hawthorne Group at least had funding for research and development.

But... Secretary Lynch felt the person before him had an unfathomable demeanor.

He couldn’t help but feel somewhat uneasy, subconsciously glancing at Nash.

Nash naturally understood his intent and spoke without nonsense, in a calm tone, "Secretary Lynch, haven’t you heard? The early systems of The Hawthorne Group were entirely developed by N.Z. Tech’s President Hayes leading a team.

Now that N.Z. Tech has become the new star, do you think The Hawthorne Group has any competitive ability left? The Red Warmth System that won today must have gained from President Hayes."

These blunt words left Secretary Lynch a bit stunned.

Quickly realizing, he hastened to speak, "Yes, yes, you’re right. I was foolish."

The previous rumors had spread widely, and he had certainly heard them. This time he was truly foolish, forgetting this point, and even mentioning it before this person.

Jasper Fitzgerald didn’t have the intention to continue the conversation and spoke in a calm voice: "Secretary Lynch probably still has work tonight, so I won’t take up more of your time."

Finally, Secretary Lynch got the hint and realized that Jasper Fitzgerald was politely asking him to leave.

So he hurriedly stood up and said: "Indeed, I won’t disturb your peace, I’ll go meet the guests."

"Okay."

Jasper Fitzgerald nodded, and soon Secretary Lynch left.

Nash Spencer watched the other man’s cold sweat as he exited, and couldn’t help but shake his head.

Outside, the ballroom was lively.

Sabrina Hayes, Poppy Yates, and Josee Sheffield had already gathered quite a crowd.

These guests came to chat and toast with them.

Although N.Z. Tech is a newcomer compared to those established companies,

everyone has witnessed their capabilities.

Given time, they will definitely surpass them.

Having more enemies is not as good as having more friends.

If there’s any potential collaboration or guidance, that would be even better.

In the noisy, bustling environment, Sabrina Hayes still felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Even if she wanted to avoid it, she eventually had to drink a little.

But where there’s sacrifice, there’s gain. At least at this banquet, she made quite a few connections...

Meanwhile, Brooke Sinclairs found Jordan Hawthorne and met up with Jordan Hawthorne.

Due to connections with The Hawthorne Group, many also came to talk with Jordan Hawthorne.

Seeing his female partner, some uninformed guests were quite surprised and instinctively asked: "Who is this?"

Before Jordan Hawthorne spoke, Brooke Sinclairs actively stepped forward to introduce herself, saying: "Hello, Chairman Coleman, I am Brooke Sinclairs, President Hawthorne’s companion. I heard of Chairman Coleman’s extraordinary presence before, and indeed, today proves the reputation well-deserved..."

"And this must be President Lowell, right? I’ve heard of your entrepreneurial endeavors in my early years and truly admire you. It is my honor to meet you today..."

Her demeanor was poised and articulate, making those who came to greet Jordan Hawthorne quite pleased.

There’s no denying, in this aspect, Brooke Sinclairs is indeed impressive.

But not everyone is unfamiliar with her.

Upon hearing Brooke Sinclairs’ name, some guests showed peculiar expressions.

If they remembered correctly, wasn’t she the reason President Hawthorne abandoned President Hayes?

Unexpectedly, on such an occasion, President Hawthorne still brought her along...

Moreover, wasn’t there a previous rumor that she plagiarized a formula?

Even after such a scandal, she dares to show up blatantly.

How does she manage to act unaffected?

In their hearts, they despised Brooke Sinclairs, but in the presence of Jordan Hawthorne, no one said a thing.

However, not everyone would indulge Brooke Sinclairs.

Josee Sheffield, from a distance, naturally didn’t miss the situation here.

Upon hearing this, he sneered coldly and said: "Isn’t it only those invited eligible to attend this summit today? How did every Tom, Dick, and Harry manage to get in?"

His voice wasn’t suppressed.

The mocking words directly reached Jordan Hawthorne and Brooke Sinclairs’ ears.

Brooke Sinclairs’ expression froze, like she was stepped on a sore spot.

Jordan Hawthorne then frowned slightly, appearing somewhat displeased.

Josee Sheffield didn’t stop there.

With a mischievous tone, he continued, directly addressing Jordan Hawthorne: "President Hawthorne, everyone knows you cherish your little lover, but on such a grand occasion, letting her wander around like a social butterfly—isn’t that a bit inappropriate?

After all, everyone present is quite notable; aren’t you lowering everyone’s standards?

Not to mention, this Miss Sinclairs also stole our company’s medical formula.

Allowing a woman with such a background to mingle with so many distinguished guests, surely... you’re harboring some intention again?"

Jordan Hawthorne’s face turned dark upon hearing this.

Standing beside him, Brooke Sinclairs’ face became somewhat pale.

Because what Josee Sheffield said, she couldn’t refute.

But she already paid the price, what more do they want?

Today was a hard-earned opportunity for her, and now is it going to be ruined?

Brooke Sinclairs looked towards the surrounding guests.

The people who were just happily chatting now subconsciously distanced themselves from her.

Brooke Sinclairs was even angrier, quivering all over!

Josee Sheffield’s words were truly cruel!

He was practically implying she wanted to steal another company’s secrets...

Now, everyone looking at her had a contemptuous gaze.

Brooke Sinclairs could hardly bear such stares, feeling extremely uncomfortable, "Jordan..."

She looked pleadingly at Jordan Hawthorne, hoping he would help her out of this situation.

Jordan Hawthorne’s expression wasn’t good either.

But compared to Brooke Sinclairs, he barely maintained composure, he merely looked unhappily at Josee Sheffield and said: "President Sheffield, the one who stole the formula was someone else, and they have already confessed.

The police closed the case long ago; it had nothing to do with Brooke.

As for why she’s here, it’s naturally because she is accompanying as staff of The Hawthorne Group. Does President Sheffield have any opinion on The Hawthorne Group’s arrangements?"
