As soon as Zach arrived, all the cameras pointed at him. He looked straight ahead and took the mostimportant seat. Cecilia, serving as the Deputy CEO of Jardin Corporation, sat right next to
him.
The room buzzed when Zach came in. Every reporter held up the day’s newspaper, ready for thescoop. Right when Zach sat down, a reporter asked the first question.
“Mr. Jardin, is what is reported in today’s paper correct? Have you really called off your engagementwith Yvonne Young? And if so, was the decision based on the belief that there’s no longer any value inthe alliance with her family’s company, YTCorp?”
Zach answered, “Calling off my engagement with her doesn’t change our relationship with YTCorp. Wework in different areas, and their agreement with Jardin Corporation is meant to last.”
Before Zach could continue, another journalist jumped in with a new question, “So, are the rumors ofyou and Yvonne Young having troubles true?”
Kevin firmly answered, “Please, we’re not here to talk about Mr. Jardin’s private life. This conference isfor questions about the company’s operations and future plans.”
A young reporter with a hint of curiosity asked, “Mr. Jardin, as the CEO of Jardin Corporation and apublic figure, could you please share more details during this conference?”
After briefly checking his phone, the reporter continued, “There’s speculation online that yourengagement to Yvonne Young was broken off because you’ve been in a discreet relationship withsomeone you’ve financially supported for the past four years. She was studying in France and has only
recently returned. And there have been reports of her being seen with a child. Is the child yours? If so,is that why your engagement ended?”

Her thoughts were interrupted by the buzz of excitement from the reporters seated below. They
were capturing every moment of the rare press conference, focusing on the leading figure of
Ventropolis onstage.
Cecilia leaned closer and whispered to Zach, “I understand you’re considering giving Madelyn an

air of nonchalance.novelbin
