    As’s decisive actions left those in the room reeling.


    After a while, Nick stood up and announced, “Let’s adjourn!”


    His words seemed to snap everyone back to reality. I turned to Carol and suggested, “We should leave,


    too.”


    Suddenly, a piercing shout cut through the air, “Chloe! This is all your doing… What did I ever do to


    you?


    How could you conspire against me like this?!”


    I turned, startled, to find the source of the rage. It came from Eloise. Her eyes burned with anger, and


    she


    pointed a trembling finger at me, her hatred strong.


    “Chloe, I have unfinished business with you. You wretched woman, for…”


    “Outrageous! This is not Austier Agency. You can’t shout so loudly here. Get out!” Nick looked at her


    with


    a stern face.


    It was the first time I saw Nick look so forbidding. Everyone’s attention turned to Eloise.


    The room was already tense from the previous conflict, and Eloise’s shouting only added fuel to the


    fire. She found herself in an awkward position as her fellow attendees scoffed at her.


    “Where do you get the confidence to go berserk at ATL Empire? Get out!” Nick shouted again, cutting


    Eloise off.


    With a pale face, Harmony’s assistant tugged at Harmony’s sleeve, whispering something. Harmony,


    embarrassed, stood up and left the conference room.


    Seeing that Harmony had already left the room, Eloise didn’t pay attention to her. She was even


    angrier.


    Ivanna’s face was gloomy, and she didn’t acknowledge Eloise. She also got up, intending to leave.


    I couldpletely understand Ivanna’s current state of mind. After all, these two people were both from


    the Austier Agency, and she was their boss. She was embarrassed.


    Eloise stomped her foot and left, chasing after Harmony.


    smiled faintly at Nick before leaving with Hana and Carol. Once outside, I felt unusually pleasant. It


    seemed that I had everything I strived for.


    Carol looked admiringly at Hana and said, “Ms. Hana, you yed a key role today. Well done!”


    Hana gave a sly smile. “It was Ms. Chloe’s excellent idea!”


    Carolughed. “Yes, Ms. Chloe always remains calm under pressure. This sponsorship deal was won


    so


    brilliantly.”


    Then she turned to me and said, “I’m excited! The traffic for this promotional video will be through the


    roof. She made a big deal out of nothing, and not only did she look bad, but we got a free long–term


    partnership with ATL Empire. This is a huge win!”


    I smiled faintly.


    Why did As do this? Was he and Harmony just an act? Otherwise, why would he call off Harmony’s


    endorsement?


    I thought about what he said to me outside the show unit, and my heart raced. I was not expecting it to


    be


    so easy to get this sponsorship.


    As said it would be a long–term partnership. Didn’t he tell me that he wanted to end our business


    rtionship?


    For the ATL Empire, helping a small business like Tanum Corporation was extremely simple. However,


    we did need this support.


    After all, Tanum Corporation was still too young, and the journey had been incredibly challenging. This


    sponsorship that As casually bestowed upon us was no less than a godsend.

    Being able to tie themselves to the ATL Empire was something manypanies could only dream of,


    let alone a tinypany like Tanum Corporation.


    “We’re here!” Carol said as I was lost in thought. It was then that I realized I had already arrived home.


    I gathered my thoughts and told Carol, “You can drive the car back. Come pick me up tomorrow


    morning and take Hana home!”


    Then I went straight into the house. To my surprise, there were guests at home. Myra was there with


    her son. This was quite a rare visit, but I knew there had to be a reason for hering.
