Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 71

Chapter71

Because LuminousCore Tech had faced bankruptcy and restructuring, it wasn’t on the list of exhibitors for this year’s expo.

Finn stroked his beard and said, “I’ll talk to Mr. Carver and see what he can do.”

Mr. Carver was Owen Carver, the chief assistant at Thalassa Group headquarters.

He was a favorite of the Thalassa Group’s top executive.

Known for his corruption, he was called Mr. Carver.

Josephine didn’t care who he was, as long as he got things done.

In just half a day, Mr. Carver had settled everything.

Josephine gathered the staff for a meeting.

“Showcasing new products and technologies is the top priority of the expo. I’ll select a few existing products for upgrades and improvements.”

“Also, we need to invite key media reporters to visit, to increase exposure for our company and new products…”

Nora raised her hand to interrupt.

“Ms. Copeland, maybe you don’t know since you haven’t worked at the grassroots level, but the reporters in Vexford only respect beauty, not people. Especially the most famous male reporter–he’s also very…”

Lewd.

Nora didn’t say any more.

Being sexually harassed was shameful; she didn’t want everyone to know.

Michael said, “Last year I begged several media outlets to just point their cameras at our booth, but they completely ignored me.”

After hearing all the complaints, Josephine said calmly, “We’ll try again this year.”

Nora said weakly, “Then… can we send someone else?”

She really didn’t want to see that sleazy male reporter again. She’d heard he had connections and played around a lot…

Josephine looked around at everyone; they all lowered their heads.

She said, “If no one else will

go,

I will!”

After the meeting, Nora was about to remind Josephine to be careful of that male reporter.

But the receptionist interrupted her.

The receptionist told Josephine that Mr. Decker was looking for her.

Josephine said, “No.”

In a flash, she thought, Shane was a wicked, troublesome ghost.

If she refused to meet, there was no guarantee he wouldn’t spread rumors at her new

company.

Josephine called out to the receptionist, stood up, and went to the reception hall.

No pleasantries, no preamble, just one word:

“Speak.”

Shane wasn’t annoyed; he put on a fake smile and said:

“Ms. Copeland, you wear your emotions on your face. That’s a big disadvantage in the workplace… Look at me, I don’t like you either, but shouldn’t I still smile at you? So I do.”

“Mr. Decker was born to smile, just like the most sycophantic attendant in a royal court. Even if he’s stirring up trouble, spreading rumors, or plotting behind your back, he can still smile with such sincerity, his whole being radiating a fawning obedience.”

Josephine was just as sharp–tongued when it came to mocking others.

Shane was so angry he slapped the table and stood

1. up.

A few glances turned their way, and Shane’s fury subsided a little.

“I’m here to remind you: during the cooling–off period, having intimate relations or cohabiting with someone of the opposite sex outside the marriage is considered infidelity and

a breach of marital loyalty.”

“Shouldn’t you be saying that to those two people? Oh, I get it, the law doesn’t apply to the powerful, right?”

Josephine was seething with anger.

Shane just smiled, saying nothing.

He walked up to Josephine and spoke in a voice too low for any recorder to catch:

“You belong to Wilfred. Unless he truly doesn’t want you anymore, you’ll never escape his grasp… And as for your Dr. Maynard, his parents just run a farm, spending their days with plants and livestock. Their life is decent enough, but don’t drag them into this!”

Shane curled his lips in a smirk and swaggered away.

Josephine really wanted to chase after him and wring Shane’s neck.

But she believed Shane’s warning was not just empty talk.

They were definitely capable of doing something harmful to Zachery.

If that happened, she would truly have let Dr. Harrington down.
