Chapter 2068 The Mysterious Person
Honey We Are Not Getting Remarried: Get Away From Me!
As soon as she left the room, Bella called.
Bella called with good news.
Since the press conference, the companyâs situation had clearly started to improve.
Even when stocks were on the verge of plummeting, they managed to recover, which was undoubtedly a positive sign.
Bella was enthusiastically discussing these matters, leaving Elisa feeling somewhat dazed.
âThe company is back on track now, all thanks to your brilliant maneuver. I canât even begin to count how many companies are regretting their decisions. In short, Liz, youâre amazing,â Bella said.
Elisa chuckled. âAs long as the company is running smoothly, Iâm happy. I just hope there wonât be more chaos. Itâs just that things seem to have been resolved a bit too easily. It feels odd.â
Bella didnât quite agree, feeling that Elisa was probably just being overly cautious. The most crucial corporate image has now been restored. Beyond that, I canât think of any other issues.
Elisa opened her mouth, but no sound came out.
She couldnât pinpoint exactly what was wrong, but her keen intuition told her that things werenât that simple.
To give a simple example, that group of journalists did not show up by chance or because they caught wind of something.
If that was the case, someone must be pulling the strings.
Considering it from another perspective, if Elisa herself wanted to use this incident for publicity to ruin a company, it certainly wouldnât stop here. Will their scheming end here? There are clearly many more sophisticated strategies to employ...
Meanwhile, a mysterious figure stood atop the Benett Corporationâs building, gazing down at the bustling activity below.
The person was holding a phone, seemingly in the midst of an argument.
The person on the other end of the phone was somewhat agitated. âYouâre nothing but an ingrate! Donât- forget why you were sent to Benett Corporation in the first place. It was for you to lie low and seek revenge! And didnât you promise to do just that?
What now? Are you going back on your word? How much has that despicable Elisa offered you to make you so indecisive? To make you disregard your own family?â
The man appeared somewhat helpless. He sighed, his face showing a struggle. âNo, thatâs not it. I just feel that, since itâs all in the past, thereâs no need to be so cruel. Besides, if we really do this, wouldnât it leave Benet Corporation with no chance to turn things around? Do we really need to go this far?â
There was silence on the other end of the phone, and then the man continued, âPerhaps we should just reconcile. After all, it wasnât Ms. Benettâs fault! Itâs what we deserved.â
The phone was silent for a long while, leaving the man feeling deeply unsettled.
Clearly, he didnât believe he could persuade the person on the other end of the phone because that person had always been very stubborn. Things have always been the same, and everything will remain.
Sure enough, after a brief silence, the person on the other end of the call snorted coldly and said mockingly. âIt seems like youâve been in the company for a while and have forgotten who you are, havenât you? Fine. If you wonât do it, someone else will.
However, Iâll reveal your identity to Elisa. Guess what? Do you think she will still trust you after this?â
The man clearly wanted to say something more, but the call was abruptly ended.
All he got in response was a series of busy tones.
The man leaned against the railing of the rooftop, kicking it a few times as if to vent his frustration. Then, resting his weight on the railing, he looked down, his face filled with defeat. If it werenât for the reluctance to let go, I would truly wish to leap and dispel a thousand sorrows. Itâs a pity I canât. I still have a lot of things to do.
