Chapter 911

Jovan coughed lightly from another corner of the balcony, and walked over with a fake smile on hisface. He was wearing a tidy suit and a pair of frameless glasses, and was the epitome of a wolf insheep’s clothing.

“Honey, you’ve got what you wanted. It’s time to get ready for the main show!” The man remindedRenee with a smirk as he tapped his expensive wristwatch.

“Yes, it’s time for the show.” Renee took a deep breath and beamed radiantly at Jovan, no trace of herdisappointment from earlier. She patted Stefan on the shoulder, and said briefly, “Take care, Mr. Hunt.”

She linked arms with Jovan, and they headed into the banquet hall.

Stefan was speechless for a while, but the shock was soon replaced with amusement, and a soft smileappeared on his face. He thought to himself, ‘Yes, this is how Renee Everheart is supposed to live. Idon’t care if she wants revenge, or anything else… I just don’t want her to be sad because of me.’

Renee and Jovan attracted a lot of attention the minute they appeared in the hall, but it was mostly justdisdainful stares. After all, Jovan was known as the right-hand man who failed in betraying his ownfamily, whereas Renee was known as a useless, abandoned woman whose family had fallen fromgrace.

To many, it was unthinkable that they would willingly attend an event like this given their reputations.

Meanwhile, Seraphina soon noticed that she was no longer in the limelight. Everyone was lookingsomewhere else, which made her quite upset. She followed everyone’s gaze to the spiral staircase,only to find Renee and Jovan under the spotlight.

Seraphina sneered as she approached Renee and said mockingly, “Miss Everheart, are you attendingthis summit as Mr. Hunt’s plus one? You might not know this, but only people with significant

contributions to the industry were invited to attend. Thus, Mr. Hunt is not qualified to be here, andneither are you.”

“Oh, there were requirements? Sorry, but I had no idea!” Jovan grinned cheekily and replied, “Sorry toburst your bubble, but this lovely lady isn’t my plus one – I’m hers! You might not know this, but mysweetheart here is the president of the Electronics Technology Association. I just came here to broadenmy horizons, you know?”

Hearing this, some of the people in the crowd immediately became enraged.

“How dare you even mention that?! Have you no shame? All of us voted for this woman as presidentbecause we trusted her, but she decided to just up and leave her post! Don’t you know how we weremocked because we had no leader?!”

“Who even made the attendance list? Allowing them to attend is an insult to our industry… Security!Kick these two out right now!”novelbin

“I was wrong back then, and I sincerely apologize to everyone for it,” Renee said solemnly as shebowed deeply. She knew that her sudden departure had brought harm to the association, so she hadlong expected that she would be the main target for their resentment.

“However, I actually came here with a very important goal in mind. It was also the current president, Mr.Frederick Yarrow, who personally invited me to this summit. So, my plus one and I are more thanqualified to participate,” she continued with a confident smile.

“Frederick Yarrow personally invited you? How is that possible?!” Shocked, everyone immediatelyturned to their current president.
