Chapter 17: Gossip Is the Most Vicious
"What did you say?"
In the meeting room in the Hunt Group.
Old Lady Hunt looked gloomy. Young people such as Ewan and Maggie were sitting next to her.
"Grandma, how could I lie to you? It's spread in celebrity circles now."
Ewan pushed the phone over and said, "Grandma, take a look, a few dudes sent the Moments to laugh
at the Hunt Family!"
"Grandma, think about it, those first-class families can't get the contract, but Katherine can get it. What
kind of capital does she have? It’s nothing more than her own body!" Maggie said.
Another short and chubby young man said, "Grandma, it creates a bad effect to the Hunt Family. the
Hunt Family is laughed at by others again. Just like three years ago when Charlie, that wimp, married
into our family!"
"No, to be precise, the impact is even greater!" Ewan added.
Old Lady Hunt was speechless. She looked at Ewan and asked in a deep voice, "What do you
mean?"Ewan and Maggie looked at each other and sat up straight.
"Grandma, I am not targeting Katherine. I am for the reputation of the entire the Hunt Family. At
present, the only way is to remove Katherine's position as the person in charge and let her stay at
home for a few days. What do you think?"
The meeting room became quiet.
Maggie saw Old Lady Hunt hesitating. She incited again, "By the way, Grandma, yesterday afternoon,
Charlie drove a BMW 540Li to pick Katherine up!"
"What? BMW 540Li? Where did Charlie make so much money from?" Ewan asked, pretending to be
surprised.
"It's obvious that Katherine used the company's public funds."
"How dare she!"
Ewan slapped the table and stood up abruptly, "Grandma, see. It's only a few days. But Katherine
dares to do such things. Maybe after a few days, she won't take you seriously."
Suddenly, Old Lady Hunt's face became gloomy.
"I'll give Katherine a call."
"Grandma, you have to teach her a lesson!"
Ewan and Maggie looked at each other. A smirk appeared at the corners of their mouths.
On the way to the company.
When Katherine was chatting with Charlie, she suddenly received a call, "Hello, Grandma."
"Katherine, I think you have been under pressure recently. Go home and rest for a few days. I will let
Ewan take charge of the project."
"What!"
"That's it."
Beep, beep...
Charlie frowned and asked, "What's the matter?
Katherine blushed with anger. But she was so helpless, "Grandma asked me to go home and rest for a
few days. She let Ewan be responsible for the project. That bastard, he must say some bad words
about me in front of Grandma again!"
"What?"
Charlie's face sank.
Just then, Katherine's phone rang again.
"Ewan is calling. What should I do?"
"Pick up. What are you afraid of? Turn on the speaker. I want to listen what he will say." Charlie said.
Katherine took a deep breath to calm herself down and then picked up the phone.
"I'm so sorry. I took over the project. Anyway, I still have to thank you for getting the contract."
How smug he was!
Katherine was so aggrieved. She said angrily, "Ewan, what did you say to Grandma?"
Ewan laughed, and then said, "I didn't say anything. Didn't you hear any news?"
"What's the news?"
"Tsk-tsk, it's spread in the celebrity circle in J City now. The reason why you can get that contract is
because you slept with Sidney. Do you know how much this has affected the Hunt Family's reputation?
It’s your luck that Grandma didn't drive you out of the family!"
Katherine was in rage, "Son of bitch!"
"Don’t yell at me! It's not me who slander you. The whole J City is talking about it."
Ewan paused, and then asked in a weird tone, "But it's incredible that you can sign the contract. Could
it be that you really cheated on Charlie?"
"You bastard!"
"Hahaha, Katherine, accept your fate, you can't beat me. Stay at home obediently and give Charlie a
little compensation. He must be very sad when he hears the rumors. After all, after living together for
three years, no matter how useless he is, he is still your husband, right?"
Bang!
Katherine couldn't help but smashed the phone on the windshield in front of her. The next second, she
covered her face and cried out.
The cold light flashed in Charlie's eyes. He suppressed the anger, and comforted Katherine,
"Katherine, it's okay. You didn’t do that things. Don't bother about the rumors!"
"But others all think that I used some dirty means. How could I explain it! I don't want to go out
anymore."
"It's easy. I will call Sidney and ask him to clarify." Charlie patted Katherine on the shoulder.
"Really?"
"Don't worry. It’s not a big deal."
Charlie turned the front of the car. His voice became cold, "Since they don't want you to go to the
company, we’ll go home. I will let them beg you to go back!"
"Charlie, what are you talking about?"
"Nothing."
Back home, Katherine shut herself in the room. Charlie received a call from Jaiden.
"Master."
"Have you heard it?"
Jaiden replied, "Yes. The rumors are very vicious. Even if I let Sidney come forward to clarify, no one
will believe it. This matter is not easy to handle. Master, what do you think?"
"Huh..."
Charlie stroked his forehead, also feeling the thing was very tricky. Ewan really caused him a big
trouble.
After thinking for a moment, Charlie said, "Jaiden, first restore Katherine's identity as the person in
charge. But it has to convince everyone. Let Sidney visit the Hunt Group. He should know what to do."
"As for the rumors..."
"I have my own way."
Jaiden answered, "Master, I understand."
"Bye."novelbin
Charlie stood on the balcony, looking at the sky, and sneered, ‘You dare bully my woman? That's good.
Since you want to play, I will accompany you to have fun.’
...
Ewan took over the project. After getting a general understanding of the project, he was ready to
contact Tyler.
He promised Tyler that he would hand over the construction part of the project to the Chou family when
he became the person in charge.
But Old Lady Hunt was still in the company. Ewan needed to discuss with Tyler on how to convince Old
Lady Hunt.
"Beep, beep."
Just then, the landline rang.
"Hello, who’s speaking?"
"I'm Sidney, the general manager of Chengyu Group. I want to speak to Katherine, Miss Hunt."
Ewan said respectfully, "Hello, Manager Watson, I am Ewan, the deputy general manager of the Hunt
Group. What can I do for you?"
"It has been a few days since we signed the contract. I want to come to the Hunt Group for a visit. I
don't know if you are available."
"I’m available. It’s our company’s great honor that you can visit our company!"
Ewan laughed and asked, "When you will come?"
"How about today? I'm on the way. I will be there in ten minutes. By the way, Miss Hunt is at the
company, right? I have something to discuss with her later. That's it. See you later."
After hanging up the phone, Ewan hurriedly called the secretary and asked her to help him tidy up his
clothes. Then he came to the gate of the company with the beautiful secretary.
Not long after, a Maybach which was worth 500 million approached slowly.
Sidney got out of the car and walked to Ewan domineeringly.
Ewan sighed secretly. This was the general manager of a large group. Look at this aura, he must be so
rich and far richer than entire the Hunt Family.
Ewan hurriedly greeted Sidney with a smile on his face, "Manager Watson, I'm Ewan."
"Hello!"
Sidney looked around and then frowned, "Where is Miss Hunt? Why didn’t I see her?"
Ewan smiled, "Here is the thing. Because of the pressure of work, Katherine took a few days off and
went home to rest. At present, the project leader is me. I will be responsible for contacting with
Manager Watson this time. In the future, it’s also me."
"Really? If so, this contract will be voided!"
Ewan's smile frozen. He asked puzzledly, "Manager Watson, what do you mean by this?"
"the Hunt Family didn't have the sincerity. So the cooperation is terminated. I will make another bid."
Sidney finished speaking and left.
The whole meeting took less than a minute.
In front of the company, Ewan was dumbfounded. Maybach disappeared from Ewan's sight. But he still
didn't understand what went wrong.
