---- Chapter 501 "Are you... are you joking? Khloe is Morrison Group's-" "That's right, Angela," Winnie cut in smoothly, seizing the moment to affirm her suspicion on Ethan's behalf. "Our CEO, Khloe Roswell, seems to have quite a history with you, doesn't she?" Winnie loved scenes like this. Watching despicable people get publicly humiliated was endlessly entertaining. Angela's face looked as if she had swallowed a fly. She couldn't utter a word. Her pupils trembled and dilated, as though her body no longer obeyed her own will. Winnie folded her arms. "I heard that before Khloe returned to.
the Morrison Group, she was bullied quite a bit by you, Angela. And | also heard... you really enjoy being a mistress, don't you? "So tell me, how could a company as ambitious as Solara Energy send someone with such questionable character to work with Morrison Group? "This kind of thing doesn't just make Morrison Group doubt Solara Energy's sincerity in cooperating. It also makes people think Solara Energy's employees have no sense of shame at all. The impact... is far too damaging." ---- Her final remark was a perfect echo of Angela's own words, thrown straight back at her.
The surrounding murmurs instantly exploded into chatter, Angela's face turned green, then greener. She knew Winnie was kicking her while she was down, yet she didn't even have the strength to dodge. The mere fact that Khloe was the CEO of Morrison Group was enough to make her mind collapse. She didn't even have the energy to be angry at Winnie. "Winnie, don't go too far. You have no right to speak here," Ethan snapped through clenched teeth, warning her coldly. Winnie looked even more disdainful. With Michael here, she wasn't afraid of Ethan at all.

Since Michael hadn't stopped her, she merely shot Ethan a white-eyed glance. Seeing more and more people gathering around, and knowing that family scandals should not be aired in public, Ethan and Michael almost simultaneously signaled their people to disperse the onlookers. In silent agreement, they led Angela and the others quickly back ---- to the conference room. Angela had no idea how she managed to walk back. All she felt was that her feet were floating, as though they weren't touching solid ground.
Just now, Ethan had said that Trey had known long ago that the Morrison heiress was Khloe... Then why hadn't he ever mentioned a single word of it to her? Not only him-no one in the entire Fox family had told her either. Suddenly, Angela recalled the look in Trey's eyes when he watched her. She had thought he was finally coming back to her. Only now did she realize he had been using her all along. Following Michael into the conference room were also Winnie and Charlotte. When Ethan saw Charlotte, he shot her a cold look. "Michael, this concerns company business.
There's no need for irrelevant people to be present." "They're my companions, and they're also Khloe's subordinates," Michael replied calmly. "They don't count as irrelevant." To begin with, Michael hadn't intended to involve Winnie. ---- But she clung tightly behind him, afraid of being left out. And he was protective of his own. Michael's words clearly carried more weight. No one paid attention to Ethan, and they all took their seats. Both sides settled into their respective positions.
Michael had brought along two senior executives from the Morrison Group, as well as Khloe's work assistant. He glanced at the time and did not rush to speak. Ethan, however, had already lost his patience. "Michael, if you're stopping us from signing with Solara Energy today, you'd better have a proper reason. Otherwise, whether it's you or Khloe, you should be prepared to bear the consequences." After speaking, he dropped heavily into his chair and leaned back forcefully, his gaze sliding sideways toward Charlotte. Yet, she did not look at him even once.
From beginning to end, her eyes were fixed solely on Michael Ethan's hand clenched tightly on his thigh. It felt as if something were lodged in his throat, making it hard even to breathe.
