Chapter 912


    Frederick adjusted his sses as he faced the crowd calmly, looking distinguished in his well-tailored


    suit. “Calm down, everyone. I sent Miss Everheart an invitation because she has a special identity –


    one that is very significant in our industry. She is more qualified than anyone here to join this summit,


    so for the good of our industry, please respect everyone here as equals.”


    The man’s words instantly enraged the older individuals in the hall.


    “Yarrow, what are you saying? She’s just an inexperienced little girl! How could she possibly contribute


    more to the industry than us? Did you fall for that temptress’ tricks, youngster?! Did you exploit some


    loophole so you could invite her here?”


    “Don’t forget that we can remove you from your position just as easily as we put you there, so don’t get


    cocky with us!”


    Frederick smiled sadly. “By the time the conference starts, all of you will understand that I was only


    speaking the truth. If you still think Miss Everheart has no right to attend by then, I’ll be willing to resign


    immediately.”


    When everyone saw how serious Frederick was, nobody dared to make the situation more difficult for


    him. The crowd soon dispersed, not even giving Renee or Jovan a second nce.

    However, Seraphina did not want to let the matter go so easily. She took a ss of wine and handed it


    to Renee with a fake smile. “Miss Everheart, you’re here for Stef, aren’t you? I must say, you have


    amazing timing – we’ll be announcing our rtionship to the public today! You’ll give us your blessing,


    won’t you?”


    Renee nonchntly clinked sses with her, shing her an equally fake smile. “If my blessings could


    help reassure you, I’d be happy to offer them… but I’m sure you already know that you could never


    keep him at your side. If I were you, I wouldn’t even dream of taking such a huge risk. Try to cherish


    this feeling while itsts, because you’re going to be heartbroken and ashamed once he’s done with


    you.”


    Her words instantly triggered Seraphina, and the woman’s eyes widened in rage. Uncaring of her


    image, she screamed at Renee, “Shut your mouth, Everheart! Stef and I will be together forever, and


    the only heartbroken person here will be you! You were abandoned four years ago, and now, you’re


    being abandoned again!”


    Seraphina let out a snarl and sshed her wine at Renee’s face, her eyes wild.


    Jovan quickly shielded Renee, and warned Seraphina coldly, “Miss Murphy, you are crossing a line. If


    you keep behaving like this, I’ll have no choice but to have you escorted out!”


    Seraphina red at him arrogantly and scoffed, “You’re just a good-for-nothing assistant who was


    banished by your own family, so you have no right to speak to me. The Hunt family’s fate ispletely


    in my family’s hands now, so how dare you act like you own this ce?! I should be the one kicking you


    out! It’s amazing how you can’t even see how worthless you are!”


    Jovan was fuming, and he sshed his own wine at Seraphina, not holding back at all. “Don’t push me!


    I won’t go easy on you just because you’re a woman, I’ll hit anyone who deserves it!”


    “Ah, you… you…” Seraphina was gaping at him in shock, red wine dripping down her face. The


    delicately beautiful makeup she had put on earlier had been ruined by this madman.


    Seraphina was furious, but she knew how ruthless Jovan could be, so she didn’t dare to provoke him


    any further. Instead, she decided to target Renee again. She turned to the security guards and


    shrieked, “What are you waiting for? Kick both of these freaks out! I’m ordering you as the eldest


    daughter of the Murphy family! If you don’t get it done now, I’ll have my family retract their sponsorship


    for this event!”


    “Uh… well…” The guards looked rather conflicted. The Murphys were not involved in the electronics


    industry, and Seraphina wasn’t exactly a professional either. However, the Murphy family was still the


    biggest sponsor of the event, and were also the biggest shareholders of the legendary H Group. Thus,


    the security guards didn’t dare disobey her.


    “Miss Everheart, Mr. Hunt, please cooperate with us…” One of the guards finally said as he


    approached them.
