Chapter 33
Jenna looked at Joanna. She had to admit that she is a master at tricks and playing mind games. Sonia is the sole ambassador of all Helian Group's products. Most of her publicity came from Working with such a big brand. And now Joanna is getting married to Raymond Walker, the CEO of Helian group. She would be an idoit if she just believed that Joanna was going to leave them alone after that. Judging from what she knew of Joanna, she would definitely try to get Sonia kicked out. Even if she does not take the endorsement herself, she will probably give it to some other actress that she can control.
Under such circumstances, how can she demand that they congratulate her? What will they be congratulating her for? The fact that she is trying to ruin Sonia again? "Do you even know the word shame? How can you ask that Sonia and I congratulate you? You are getting married to Raymond Walker and you want us to believe that we are just going to let us go!? What a joke! You know that Sonia is the sole ambassador of Helian Group. What are you going to do now? What plans have you cooked up?" Jenna asked. She was so angry that she could not control herself.
Joanna paused for a moment and tried to figure out what they were talking about. She wants to do something to Sonia? She had only come after them because she wanted to rub her marriage in thier faces but she did not expect that she was going to be accused of doing something that she had not even thought of at all! She tried to figure out what Jenna was getting at. So Sonia is the sole ambassador of Helian Group? Joanna could finally see what they were so afraid of! They think that she is going to take Sonia's endorsement deal from her. Why the both of them just gave her a wonderful idea.
If Sonia is the sole ambassador of Helian Group then it must be a deal that is really important to her! If she lost that then, won't it be difficult for her to make a comeback? She wasn't even going to do anything yet and they gave her a wonderful idea! But will Raymond even do that for her? He doesn't seem to like her very much right now. Well, even if he doesn't help her, she can still threaten them with it right now. "Now that I think about it, it isn't such a bad idea. Isn't the endorsement deal so important to you? What will happen if you lose it?" Joanna asked the both of them. She clearly wanted to provoke them even more.
Jenna looked at Joanna. She had to admit that she is a master at tricks and playing mind games. Sonia is the sole ambassador of all Helian Group's products. Most of her publicity came from Working with such a big brand. And now Joanna is getting married to Raymond Walker, the CEO of Helian group.

Even if she does not take the endorsement herself, she will probably give it to some other actress that she can control.
Jenna was angry now. Is Joanna saying that she is really going to do it? Can anyone be more evil! Why she is just a young woman! How can she think of such devious things to do to someone? "What! Are you saying that you are going to do it right now? How can you be so evil? You are going to take Sonia's endorsement away? Well let me tell you something I'm not going to make it easy for you at all! Don't think that you can trample on is and get away with it the way that you did last time. I definitely won't be making it easy for you at all!" Sonia put lots of efforts into this. how can she watch it get destroyed?
" If you know that I can do something like this then shouldn't you be watching your back right now? Do you really think that you should be here right now trying to annoy me? Don't push me. You don't know when I'll snap!" Joanna threatened. Then she walked away from the both of them.
Sonia and Jenna could only watch her go. They would think of ways to deal with her later. It was clear enough that the woman won't be letting the both of them off easily and they won't let off either!
She already admitted to them that she is going to do it. Since she admitted it then they would have to think of what to do. Jenna on her part definitely could not watch what they worked hard for get destroyed like this. It was hard enough for Sonia to make a name for herself the first time and then it all got ruined because of Joanna. They tried hard and made something of themselves again. Of course they won't sit back and watch it all come crashing down. They would definitely find a way to get at her first this time.
Ivan was working in his office when he saw something that caught his attention. He is the personal secretary of Raymond Walker and he had his desk just outside his office. He was going through the stock market that morning when he saw something that caught his attention. Raymond Walker is getting married! His boss is getting married! Wait, how is this possible? Raymond Walker is getting married? Is there another Raymond Walker of Helian Group?
He looked again at the name of the woman that his boss was supposedly marrying. Joanna Anderson? He suddenly remembered! Last night his boss had called him and told him to get the information of that woman no matter what! He wanted to know her address. So is it true that they are getting married? But the article said that they have been dating for some time now. That is definitely not true! His boss did not have a single woman in his life! Over the years so many woman had tried to get close to him. All kinds of beauties, he did not care about any of them! But how come there is a girlfriend that he wants to marry now?
Ivan did not know what was going on. He had to find out just what the meaning of this is. How can his boss be going out with someone that he knows absolutely nothing about? Actually, he has heard about this woman. Joanna Anderson. She is the most popular actress right now. Of course he knew some few things about her. But he also knew that for some reason, this kind of women were the kind that the boss seemed to hate the most. So how can be marrying her? Something must be wrong somewhere.
He suddenly thought of something. Maybe this media is just doing this to gain attention from the public. Writing about his boss and some actress would definitely get people's attention! This has to be it! He was sure that Raymond has not seen the rumors yet. Once he sees it, he is definitely going to make life hard for those people who keep writing nonsense! Then they will know not to mess with his boss ever again. Yes this has to be it. There is no way that his boss is getting married. How stupid of him to think that it is true.
Ivan got up and picked up his tab. He is going to show the boss the news. There must be something wrong with these people writing such an outrageous story like this. Everyone knew what his boss is like. Once you made him angry, he won't spare you at all! Ivan has been working for him for five years now and he knew about all his ruthlessness. Once he knows that there is someone writing such stories, they would be done for!
He entered the office. Ivan's heart was beating fast. He came in here without being called for, what will happen to him now? Five years of working with Raymond and he is still scared of him so much. But he could not sit back and watch these people spread rumours. They have to pay for saying something like this behind his boss back. "Boss, have you seen the news this morning? They say that you are getting married to some actress. I really don't believe it at all! What do those people think that they are doing? Do they think that they can write whatever they want?!" Ivan asked.
Raymond raised his eyes. He has expected this but he did not think that they were going to be so quick last night he had called the chief editor of a popular newspaper and told him to publish this story, but he did not think that he was going to do it so soon. He looked at the Ivan who had a confused look on his face standing in front of him. Thinking about all of it, he was pretty irritated. Why does he have to put up with this? He really hated the media talking about him so much but now he has to do it for that woman!
If not for the fact that his grandfather was sick, he won't even bother with her! Raymond was quite angry. "you don't need to worry. I told them to write about the news. It's true. Miss Anderson and I are going to get married. Do you have a problem with that?" Raymond asked. Maybe it was because he was angry and irritated but his tone was even more harsh than other days. He really did not want to think about these things but this Ivan just had to bring it up in front of him! What are they all doing right now?!
Ivan looked at his boss. What is going on? The rumours are true? He is going to get married? Wait, how is this even possible? When did he and Joanna Anderson meet that they are getting married now? As far as he knew, the boss and that woman has never even cross parts before! If it did not have anything to do with work, Raymond would not meet people from the entertainment circle. Even thier company's ambassador had a hard time just meeting him! The only contact that he had with Joanna was when he asked him to find her address.
How can they be getting married? Wait, why did he even want to find her address in the first place? Had he already decided to marry her when he asked for her address? But how can someone not know the address of the woman that he is going to marry? Everything just became more and more suspicious. Also, Ivan knew that Raymond hated publicity more than anything. If he is going to get married, he would definitely find a way to keep it a secret. But he told the media to write about it? Is the person in front of him right now even his boss? What the hell is going on? "Boss, is this true? Are you really getting married?" Ivan asked again. He felt like he did not hear him well the first time.
Raymond raised his eyes. He has expected this but he did not think that they were going to be so quick last night he had called the chief editor of a popular newspaper and told him to publish this story, but he did not think that he was going to do it so soon. He looked at the Ivan who had a confused look on his face standing in front of him. Thinking about all of it, he was pretty irritated. Why does he have to put up with this? He really hated the media talking about him so much but now he has to do it for that woman!
