But the result was undeniable. Playzy’s earnings reached record-breaking highs.
After the meeting ended, Aubree’s secretary, Vincent, brought her an invitation.
It was for Rithol City’s Outstanding Young Achievers Forum.
Almost everyone from the Wilson family had received this kind of invitation. No matter what else was said, those four siblings were objectively impressive. Even Carmen had received one many years ago, after a painting she “made” stunned the Rithol City art world and earned her the title of “Most Promising Young Artist.”
Of course, that painting had actually been Aubree’s.
Back then, as a member of the Wilson family, Aubree had always stood silently behind them. She was out of sight, filled with envy. Now, she couldn’t believe she was the one receiving an invitation..
Vincent gushed. “Miss Miller, you are amazing. Everyone knows these invitations usually go to rich kids to pad their resumes. For you to be chosen… that’s pure merit!”
His eyes sparkled with admiration.
He used to idolize only Bowen. But now, the person he respected most in the world was Aubree.
Vincent was certain that, given the same amount of time, Aubree’s achievements would far surpass even Bowen’s.
Aubree smiled. She was truly proud of the recognition. “Then let’s go.”
Meanwhile, at the Wilson family residence.
Ronald slammed the table. “Where the hell is Emery? Does he think he can never come back?”
Alice quickly tried to calm him. “He’s working. He’s not avoiding the family on purpose.”
Trevor was off filming, so he couldn’t attend. Other than him, only Daxton was busier than Emery.
Ronald sneered. “Busy? He’s busy running a club. That’s not work. Call him. If he doesn’t show up for dinner tomorrow, then tell him never to bother coming back.”
His outburst silenced the whole table.
Carmen tried to lighten the mood and asked the housekeeper to turn on the TV. Unfortunately, the channel switched to a financial news segment.
Aubree’s image filled the screen, and the temperature in the room dropped sharply.
“Rising star Aubree. While still a high school student, she has launched a successful livestreaming platform and pioneered a new frontier in digital media…”
Aubree was standing confidently on stage. Her accomplishments were listed behind her.
‘It’s Aubree. The Wilson family members couldn’t help but all think the same thing.
Wearing a suit, Aubree stood out among the crowd of high-level executives and dignitaries. 1/2

The camera cut to the audience, and in the front row sat Bowen.
He was clapping proudly, smiling at her from the very front.
Watching this on TV, Ronald was filled with regret. He was now sure there was something between Aubree and Bowen.
Ronald thought, “That ungrateful brat! I’d taken her in for three years, and this is how she repaid us? No gratitude at all!’
If he’d known she’d be this successful, he would’ve never let her go, no matter what.
Ronald snapped, “Bryan, Playzy is growing fast. If Aubree refuses to work with the Wilson Group, don’t hold back. Use whatever means necessary.”
