CHAPTER 85: CHAPTER 85: AN UNEXPECTED INCIDENT

"What do you mean ’not interested in women’? Isn’t he getting quite close?" She stared at the photo, unable to hold back her critique, "Men’s words, deceitful tales!"

All afternoon, Mia Lane felt utterly frustrated!

This photo lingered hauntingly in her mind!

After Justin Kingston returned to the company, he went to Monica Usher’s separate office.

At this moment, only Barbara Sutton was inside organizing materials.

Hearing footsteps, she looked up and quickly stood, "Hello, CEO Kingston!"

Justin looked at her, his hands in his pockets, his gaze clear.

"CEO Kingston, are you looking for President Usher?" she tentatively asked. Even though she was the vice president’s assistant and often saw the president, Barbara Sutton was still captivated by his looks and aura.

She couldn’t help but glance at him a few more times, "President Usher recently moved to the design department."

"Ask her to come here." Justin’s tone was calm, "I need to see her."

"...Alright." Barbara couldn’t quite read the president’s mood but complied immediately.

When Monica Usher entered, a broad smile graced her face, "You looking for me?"

Justin’s demeanor was composed, his expression calm.

"You don’t need to worry about my injury; it doesn’t hurt at all." Monica continued to smile as she met his gaze.

"Who took the photo?" he asked steadily.

Monica was visibly stunned for a second, "What photo?" Her smile remained, though she knew full well inside.

Barbara was already too frightened to look up.

"There are cameras outside, it’s easy to find the angle, but I don’t want to check." Justin looked at her calmly, "No matter who took it or who put it online, I hope such foolishness isn’t repeated."

Hearing this, Monica’s mind was in turmoil.

Justin said, "Otherwise, I will pursue it to the end."

Listening to the departing footsteps, the two women felt a heaviness in their hearts, and the vice president’s office fell into a prolonged silence.

Justin returned to the CEO’s office, where Finn Morgan put down the phone and reported, "CEO, I just received news, the Queen of Eldoria is coming tomorrow."

"So soon?" Justin was very attentive.

"Yes."

Then, the senior management of Kingston Group held an hour-long meeting, which Monica Usher also attended.

The design department held an additional emergency meeting.

A state of orderly yet busy operation prevailed.

Arrangements for the Queen’s reception had been made, from the time of her arrival to her preferences for afternoon tea or any food allergies...

The dinner arrangements were timed with great precision.

Overall, the matter drew the entire company’s attention, with related documents totaling ten full pages.

Finn Morgan was wholly dedicated to the task, responsible for picking up the Queen at the airport tomorrow, and also arranging the venue and specifications for the dinner.

Monica Usher would personally lead the reception and accompanying duties at the company, equipped with design drafts and the best designers to explain their design concepts to the Queen one by one.

All security measures were ready.

In the evening, after a busy afternoon, Justin sat in his office chair, and Finn handed him a cup of coffee.

"Finn, thank you for your hard work." His smile was sincere and warm.

"The long-awaited day is about to arrive." Finn said, "The excitement outweighs the hard work."

"As long as the Queen takes a liking to the design drafts, whether she takes them with her or commissions us for production, it would be very meaningful for Kingston Group."

He truly hoped no more trouble would occur.

To prevent any sabotage from R-Alan Group, the design department prepared drafts, essentially having a backup plan.

In the design department, everyone was tense yet excited; several designers would meet the Queen of Eldoria tomorrow, bringing them one step closer to fame and success.

"Ah—!"

A female designer suddenly stood up in shock!

She accidentally knocked over a water cup, and the scalding water poured into the keyboard! The computer screen went black immediately!

"How did our design work start circulating online!" She couldn’t bother with the mess, notifying everyone of the news, "Quick, go online!!"

Air froze for a moment, and everyone in the office opened their phones!

A cruel reality was laid bare before them—

The drafts leaked!
