Reborn on Wedding Night: Flirting the Cold Bigshot into Blushes
Chapter 54: Who Is the Pawn
CHAPTER 54: CHAPTER 54: WHO IS THE PAWN
Hailey Smith was incredibly skilled, the security couldn’t stop her at all.
Amelia Wright casually walked into the meeting room.
Because her vision was still a bit blurry, she elegantly found the nearest seat and sat down, like a host who was late, exuding an aura centered around her.
Hamilton breathed a sigh of relief, she finally arrived.
He quietly looked at Amelia, always feeling that every time he saw this woman, he could see a different side of her.
Wild, delicate, full of presence, but without exception, always incredibly beautiful.
Hamilton stared too intently, and Fiona Morgan gave him a strange look.
Hamilton suddenly remembered the big shot from Imperial Garden, and quickly withdrew his gaze, not daring to keep staring at Amelia.
The contract signing was interrupted, and Oliver Wright frowned immediately: "Amelia, what are you doing here?"
Amelia lazily leaned against the chair, her gaze not clear, like someone nearsighted. Those charming eyes became more and more hazy: "I know Miss Morgan is missing a design drawing, so I specially brought it over."
Oliver Wright didn’t think much of it, believing Amelia might be trying to please him after being harshly criticized online, hoping he’d step up to clarify for her.
In fact, he had already clarified to suppress the trending searches, but online people insisted that his clarifications were forced.
Seeing Amelia’s eagerness now, Oliver Wright didn’t explain further, treating Amelia as a pawn to be fully utilized.
With this in mind, Oliver Wright waved the security to stand down.
Amelia seemed oblivious to Oliver Wright’s schemes, taking out a design drawing she had already prepared and handing it to Fiona Morgan.
Fiona Morgan took the design drawing, but her gaze rested on Amelia’s face, thinking that with such a face, she would become an overnight sensation in the entertainment industry just by sitting lazily in front of the camera.
Fiona Morgan shifted her gaze from Amelia’s face to the design, her eyes lighting up instantly.
She couldn’t help but exclaim: "It’s beautiful. How come Mr. Wright didn’t unveil such a beautiful design earlier?"
Oliver Wright wore a smile of complete control.
But Amelia quietly said, "Miss Morgan misunderstood, I’m not here on behalf of Mr. Wright."
Oliver Wright’s expression changed.
Hearing this, Fiona Morgan somewhat reluctantly put down the design, shaking her head: "Oh, in that case, I’m sorry, I’ve already made arrangements with Mr. Wright and won’t look for another partner."
Oliver Wright breathed a sigh of relief and quickly called out, "Security, escort them out."
No matter what Amelia was really doing here, she couldn’t interfere with the signing.
Amelia suddenly laughed, her eyes shimmering captivatingly: "Wait, Miss Morgan, you’re collaborating with Wright Corporation, not Oliver Wright. Coincidentally, I also own 30% of Wright Corporation’s shares."
Oliver Wright abruptly stood up, glaring at Amelia.
Amelia acted as if she didn’t see Oliver Wright’s gaze, the corners of her eyes slightly upturned, both delicate and arrogant.
"The Wright family auctioned off 30% of their shares just for a pink diamond. Miss Morgan, are you sure you want to entrust such an important set of jewelry to them? If capabilities are lacking... it would truly be a joke."
Oliver Wright slammed the table angrily, "Amelia! What are you trying to do?"
Amelia remained unperturbed: "Negotiating business, can’t Mr. Wright see that?"
Fiona Morgan was indeed taken aback. The Wright family always presented themselves as very capable to her; if they auctioned shares just for a main gemstone, then they couldn’t possibly handle her order!
Fiona Morgan took a deep breath and asked, "Mr. Wright, did Wright Corporation really sell 30% of their shares?"
Oliver Wright wanted to explain, "That’s... that’s..."
Amelia smiled radiantly, what was it? A hollowed-out company?
Was he waiting for this order from Fiona Morgan to launch a new brand?
But if this order doesn’t go through, Oliver Wright is stuck with the Wright family! He would have to keep the emptied company running!
At this point, what can Oliver Wright explain?
The fact was Amelia had shares of the Wright family.
Seeing Oliver Wright this way, Fiona Morgan’s expression gradually cooled. She had almost been deceived.
The aura of a movie queen emerged, and she coldly said: "Mr. Wright, I’m sorry, there are elements of deception in the strength you promised me, our collaboration is over."
Oliver Wright realized that Amelia had been plotting against him.
But at the moment, he had no time to argue with Amelia.
He quickly addressed Fiona Morgan: "Wait, Miss Morgan, please reconsider. I can guarantee the project will have no delays, and I’ve already secured the main gemstone. In a short time, you won’t find a better main gemstone than my pink diamond!"
Fiona Morgan hesitated slightly.
At this moment, Amelia casually took out a delicate wooden box and opened it: "Gemstone? Do you mean this?"
It was a sapphire, pure blue, deep and noble, dazzling in its brilliance.
At a glance, it was clear this was a gemstone no less valuable than a pink diamond.
Amelia calmly said: "Miss Morgan has a dignified and noble demeanor, a pink diamond is too delicate for her. This sapphire perfectly complements Miss Morgan’s queen-like aura. What do you think, Miss Morgan?"
Fiona Morgan didn’t speak, but her unwavering gaze on the sapphire said it all.
Amelia had a better gemstone, a more beautiful design, and shares in the Wright family.
The outcome was already clear.
Fiona Morgan stood up, extended her hand to Amelia: "Looking forward to a pleasant collaboration."
Amelia stood up as well, gracefully shaking hands with Fiona Morgan.
Witnessing this, Oliver Wright slumped into his chair.
How did it come to this?
After playing the business game for decades, he never expected to be outmaneuvered by an adopted daughter he had never taken seriously.
Using 30% of the Wright family shares to trade for a pink diamond!
What good was a pink diamond to him! Even if sold at a low price, he couldn’t buy back the shares from Amelia!
When did Amelia start plotting this?
It was as if she had gradually pushed him into the game board.
Making him a piece on the board facing a losing end.
Amelia curled her lips into a smile, Oliver Wright, did you think this was over? Ha, this is just the beginning.
After the business was concluded, Amelia prepared to leave calmly.
Hailey Smith rushed forward to support Amelia.
The posture was like a maid assisting the Empress Dowager.
The group left Wright Corporation.
Once Amelia had left, Fiona Morgan turned to her brother: "Hey, snap out of it, she’s already gone far, but you’re still watching. Come on, when did you meet this little beauty, do you have feelings for her?"
Hamilton quickly waved his hands, shaking his head like a rattle: "Sis, don’t say that, she’s Amelia, the Young Madam of the Shaw family."
As for the rumor that Amelia seemed to be adored by both the elder and younger men of the Shaw family, Hamilton didn’t mention it, not wanting his sister to have any negative thoughts about Amelia.
Fiona Morgan acknowledged with a sound, someone from the Shaw family, best not to think about it.
Except she was curious why her always rebellious brother, who listened to no one, looked at this Amelia differently.
Could it be that Amelia used some means and did something to her brother?
Thinking of this, Fiona Morgan’s phoenix eyes sharply tracked the distant car leaving.
...
Amelia walked out of Wright Corporation’s building, and Hailey Smith quietly said: "Young Madam, we’ve been out for an hour. Shouldn’t we head back?"
Hailey Smith was worried that if they were too late, the big boss might get angry.
Amelia shook her head: "I have other matters to attend to."
Hailey Smith looked troubled, wondering what more the Young Madam had to do after scheming against the Wright family so thoroughly.
Hailey Smith felt that accompanying the Young Madam on outings was not an easy task.
While daydreaming, Hailey Smith heard the Young Madam say.
"Hailey, could you help me bring Godfery Shaw out of the hospital? I... want to see him."
Hailey: "..."
