My Wealthy Husband novel Chapter 26

Ewan felt some type of way when he noticed her smile.

Rosalie, however, standing beside Ewan, took a sip of tea as a hint of scheme flashed through his eyes when he spotted Nova’s interaction with the man. He said in a flat tone.

“Miss Nova, congratulation on the completion of the phase one construction, you have really made yourself a name. How’s the preparation of phase two going?”

“Not so good.”

Nova knew why he asked, she replied.

“The buildings of pashed haven’t been put to use yet. So we don’t have any solid data to convince investors. It nags me speaking of this.”

Rosalie gave her a smile.

“You underestimate yourself. After today’s ceremony, news about the project will blaze all over on the paper. By then, it would nag the investors rather than you because they have to face a fierce competition for bidding your project.”

“In the worse case,” he continued, “Mr. Chapman will always help you out, won’t he?”

Nova’s face darkened. Suppressing her anger, she replied him with nothing but a smile.

The host was now introducing her.

“Ladies and gentlemen, please, welcome Miss Nova.”

Amid the applause of the crowd, Nova went on stage.

She being the successor of the Graham and the rumor about her and the Chapman evoke curiosity immediately. Flashlights and the clicks on cameras took over the venue. Looking down the stage, Nova put on a smile and said.

“I’m privileged to have all of you at today’s ceremony. On behalf of the Graham, I’d like to express my gratitude.”

She radiated a peculiar type of beauty when she’s at work. Wisdom. Jacob would say. His eyes were fixed on her. He’s drowning into her. Absurdly, he’s fantasizing her having sex with him in this dress. Why am I such a pervert? He took a deep breath and mocked himself.

“Next, we are going to play a video. It’s a demonstration of our commitment and our expectation towards Taihaiwan.

She then signaled the backstage with nod and the video was soon projected onto the screen.

Nova resumed her seat. Inadvertently, she took a glance at Jacob and was greeted with a thumbs- up from him. She turned her head back and lowered her eyes, smiling.

“Oh, my god! What is this?”

Someone exclaimed. And then the ceremony turned into a total mess.

Scrambling with each other, the reporters panned their cameras on the big screen. The guard tried to stop them but it’s completely out of control.

On the screen were pictures of Nova. Her face red, her eyes sultry, she clung herself onto a man. She was kissing with the man, naked. The reporters were hyper, this was much bigger a news than the ceremony!

Nova’s brain was messy and Toby flew off the handle immediately. He roared.

“Turn the shit off!”

But the reporters’ questions engulfed his voice. Helplessly, Nova remained in her seat in the siege of reporters.
