Chapter 827: No! Don’t Get the Wrong Idea!
A number of customers, eager to stand at the front and purchase the long-awaited collection, entered the venue early.Some uninvited media also came upon hearing the news. It’s not that they weren’t allowed in, but they weren’t given privileges and weren’t provided with a lounge or tea room.
They didn’t even have seats and had to stand the entire time, but everyone was quite willing.
The first floor was the Kingston Group’s product launch venue, lavishly decorated, with energetic black-suited bodyguards visible everywhere.
The second floor was the venue for the R-Alan Group’s product launch. They had also put in a lot of effort into the setup, but the final effect was pretty average, mainly overshadowed by the floor below.
The curved staircase spiraled upward along the wall, with a sense of grandeur, and the glass railings were extremely transparent.
People standing on the first floor could easily look up and see the stage already set up on the second floor.
At this moment, the teams from both companies were ready to depart, each putting on a grand show. Company executives were dressed in suits, and each finely crafted jewelry case was accompanied by more than three bodyguards, never leaving it out of sight.
Justin Kingston held Mia Lane’s hand, leading her out of the company.
The warm sunlight enveloped them as they got into the limited edition Lamborghini symbolizing power and influence.
An entourage of executives got into the luxury cars behind them.
Meanwhile, Lydia Ingram waited with more than a dozen executives downstairs at the company for Monica Usher. He wasn’t angry and asked, "Shall we take the same car?"
Monica Usher had just finished smoking and still had a strong smell of smoke on her. She felt much more refreshed, "Sure!"
In good spirits, she didn’t refuse.
Many media would be filming today, and although her relationship with Lydia Ingram was subtle, Monica Usher did not want others to know.
Even if it was an act, she would pretend to have a good relationship with Lydia Ingram, so as not to let Justin Kingston have a laugh.
Thus, she reached out and took his arm, a gesture that surprised Lydia Ingram and stunned the surrounding executives.
"Shall we go?" Monica Usher turned her gaze, gazing coolly at him. "Weren’t we so close this morning? Why, feeling distant now even with just linking arms?"
Was she trying to make their relationship public?
Lydia Ingram didn’t care, anyway, not having an official girlfriend at the moment, and wasn’t afraid of Grace White making a fuss.
So the man didn’t shake off her hand and simply led her toward the car parked not far away.
"Oh my God! What is the relationship between President Usher and President Ingram?"
"Are these two more than ten years apart in age?"
Company employees who happened to see them were whispering.
At this moment, the assistant walked out of the company lobby and happen to see the two getting into the car, linking arms??
She was so startled as if her heart skipped a beat!
She just mentioned being single in the restroom just now? That’s a couple’s gesture!
"So... if she’s pregnant, the baby is President Ingram’s?" The assistant was directly shocked, feeling the world was in chaos!!
"What did you just say?" Someone with sharp ears heard her.
It made the assistant jump, "I didn’t say anything!" yet a hint of panic flashed across her face.
"Did you say President Usher is pregnant?" The other party asked directly, their eyes fixed on her.
"No!" The assistant hurried to explain, "You guys misunderstood! I just saw her dry heaving in the restroom earlier, and she’s been looking a bit unwell lately, just like the symptoms my sister-in-law had when she was pregnant! What kind of pregnancy would she have alone? She’s single!"
"Do you know if someone is single or not? She’s a woman in her thirties, not as innocent as you think. Everyone has needs!"
While they were gossiping, a row of cars drove away in the distance...
