Chapter 706 Press Conference
Her heart was filled with a dense, prickling pain. Daisy was panting heavily, leaving scratch marks on the white wall.
The better Caroline's life was now, the more miserable Daisy's seemed.
Mia had already been sentenced; she would never get out of prison in this lifetime.
On the day of the trial, only Daniel and the lawyer from the Wolf family attended, while Daisy didn't dare to show up at all.
Michael had run off abroad with his mistress and was still out of contact.
Moreover, Samuel no longer cared about her.
Daisy was now like a beggar, despised by everyone, who kept their distance from her.
Even those who once flattered her and whom she looked down upon now dared to mock and insult her freely.
Today, Daisy was truly at her wit's end and decided to find Daniel. However, when she arrived outside the Wolf Mansion, she happened to see Nicholas and Caroline leaving.
So, she followed them secretly.
The happier Caroline seemed, the deeper Daisy's jealousy grew.
She wanted to destroy Caroline's happiness.
It should be Caroline who was living miserably, not her!
Daisy's face twisted with jealousy. A child passing by with his mother turned to see Daisy's ghastly expression, hiccupped in fright, and then started crying loudly.
The child's mother picked him up, puzzled, and tried to soothe him.
Daisy's ears hurt from the crying, so she glared fiercely at the child.
The child cried even harder.
Afraid that the child's crying would attract Nicholas's attention, Daisy quickly turned and ran away.
She couldn't let Nicholas see her in such a wretched look.
Every time she appeared, she had to be in her most beautiful look.
Daisy returned to her car, tears streaming down her face.
She absolutely couldn't give up!
Ten minutes later, Daisy wiped away her tears and drove to the hospital.
Nicholas's cold gaze swept over the corner where Daisy was hiding.
Caroline and Lisa were with Josie, watching the big whale, while Nicholas occasionally took pictures of them with his camera.
They had lunch outside, and in the afternoon, seeing that Lisa was a bit tired, they went home.
Nicholas dropped them off at the Wolf Mansion and then returned to the company.
During his absence, a lot of work had piled up, but Paul had managed the Watson Group's affairs quite well.
"Nicholas, do you know how outrageous Uncle Aragorn was?" Paul couldn't help but complain to Nicholas about the day he went to meet the Mitchell family. "He actually wanted me to go on a blind date in your place, and you know what? The date was Trevor's resident physician!"
Paul got angry just thinking about that day, "That woman even scolded me, and her parents scolded Uncle Aragorn too."
Although Paul got scolded, at least he ruined the blind date and saved Nicholas from it.
Nicholas said indifferently, "Didn't you deserve to be scolded?"
Nicholas implicated that Paul's private life was such a mess that he changed partners more frequently than clothes.
Paul's eyes widened, "Hey, are you really my cousin?"
Nicholas denied, "No."
Paul, fuming, snatched the water glass from Nicholas's hand just as he was about to drink, childishly saying, "I'm not giving it to you."
Nicholas helplessly leaned back in his chair.
Nicholas asked, "Preston has already gained control of half of the Thomas family. When do you plan to make your move?"
Talking about this, Paul's expression changed.
His usually smiling eyes were now covered with a layer of coldness, and his carefree demeanor disappeared. When he got serious, he looked eighty percent like Nicholas.
Paul stated, "The Thomas family will soon become an empty shell. If he wants it, let him have it."
Jake said, "Your mother is back this time; don't let her leave again."
Paul replied, "Yes, I've already arranged it. Now that Uncle Aragorn is sick, my mom is worried so she won't leave for now. It just depends on whether Joseph will cause any trouble."
Nicholas said, "I've transferred all of the Watson Group's pharmaceutical business to the new company. From now on, the Watson Group will focus on developing medical equipment."
Paul listened quietly.
Nicholas said, "Once you settle the Thomas family, come back and officially take over the Watson Group."
Paul was surprised, "What?"
Paul wondered, 'Nicholas wanted to hand over the company to me?'
Paul was stunned. He had never thought about taking over a company.
Although he had the ability, he preferred to have fun and didn't want to be tied down to a job.
Paul frowned and pleaded, "Nicholas, you can manage both companies at the same time. Don't abandon the Watson Group. It will only be ruined in my hands."
Nicholas couldn't be bothered to respond. Once he made a decision, he wouldn't easily change it.
The project that had been paused due to pressure from the Wolf Group had now been restarted.
At that time, Nicholas had actually gone along with it because they had discovered a fatal side effect of the drug. A few days ago, Blake had already changed the formula to solve the problem.
Now, they could release it under the new company's name.
Since it was the new company's first product launch, Nicholas specifically invited Caroline, the boss, to attend.
The event was particularly lively, with many reporters present.
As soon as they entered, the flashlights kept going off.
Caroline, after all, was a violinist who had performed many times and wasn't fazed by such scenes.
But she was a bit nervous.
This was her first time to attend her own company's product launch, and she didn't understand the process at all. She was afraid of saying or doing something wrong that would affect the product's launch.
Nicholas squeezed Caroline's hand, quietly giving her strength "Don't worry, I'll answer any questions you can't."
Caroline nodded.
She pushed Nicholas inside, and as they appeared together, the reporters went wild.
Caroline and Nicholas looked no less attractive than celebrities.
They seemed to have stepped out of a painting, so well-matched!
The reporters frantically took photos, almost forgetting why they were there.
The attendees also whispered among themselves, all marveling at how well-matched Caroline and Nicholas were as a couple.
Of course, some were also wondering how Caroline became the boss of the new company.
"Everyone." Sharpe held a microphone, signaling for everyone to quiet down.
"Today is the NC Corporation's new product launch. Next, our marketing director will introduce the main functions of this drug."
Caroline and Nicholas sat together, with Nicholas holding her hand tightly the entire time.
After the marketing director's introduction, Nicholas said a few words.
Then the reporters began asking questions about the product.
"Next, I have a question for Miss Clark."
Caroline immediately tensed up, gripping Nicholas's hand in return.
Nicholas gave a reassuring squeeze.
"Go ahead," Caroline said.
A reporter asked, "Miss Clark, are you and Mr. Watson officially together?"
Caroline wondered, 'Isn't this question a bit off-topic?'
Caroline hesitated, unsure whether to answer."Yes, we are officially together." Before she could speak, Nicholas had already answered for her.
Nicholas turned to look at Caroline with affection, and a reporter captured this moment with his camera..
"Miss Clark, are you a mistress who came between them?" Another reporter suddenly asked.
Everyone fell completely silent, and the flashlights stopped.
