Chapter 153
Three seconds passed, yet Harvey still couldn’t find even a race of concern or anxiety on Elara’s face.
In the past, whenever he had a headache or a fever, Elara would stick to him like a shadow and fuss over him. But now, Elara completely ignored his hand which was still bleeding.
He had become an irrelevant stranger. She couldn’t even be bothered to spare him a glance.
Lucas and Christopher invited Elara upstairs. Before leaving, Lucas turned to Don, the hotel manager, and said, ” You offended our distinguished guest. I won’t let this slide
The hotel manager turned ashen. He shot a resentful glare Niamh. It was all her fault. He was about to lose hist job because of her!
Wine glass in hand, Elara headed toward the staircase.
Upon seeing this, Niamh yelled unhappily, “Mr. Pearson, since Elara is allowed to go to the second floor even though she’s jobless right now, then Harvey is allowed to go up there too!”
Lucas’s lips curled into a cold smile. Without stopping, he replied, “The president of Fisher Corp is not qualified to enter the second floor.”
Humiliation loomed over Harvey like a dark cloud.
“Shut up!” Harvey snapped.
This was the first time Niamh had ever seen Harvey this angry at her. “Harvey, I was just trying to help you…”
Harvey retorted, “I never should have brought you to a place like this!”
Niamh was so embarrassed she wished she could disappear
Harvey looked at the end of the staircase towards the tightly shut purple and gold door. The biggest wish of all businessmen was to be able to enter the Golden Amethyst Cate during the annual international or national
summit.
Harvey had always strived toward this goal. He believed that in another five years–no, less than five years. He would only need three more years. Once he brought Fisher Corp to the highest market valuation, the organizers would invite him to step through the Golden Amethyst Gate
However, Elara easily entered it. This was simply unbelievable. There was no way she was that capable.
The Golden Amethyst Gate slowly opened toward her.
“Elara, you would never be my equal even if you worked hard for 30 years!” The words Harvey said in the past echoed in Elara’s mind without warning.
She stopped halfway up the stairs and turned to look down at the banquet hall below. At this moment, she stood high enough to see everyone. Harvey, who stood in the banquet hall below, was looking up at her too.
Elara shot him a bright smile. She thought, “Harvey, from now on, you will have plenty more chances to look at me in such a manner. Tonight is merely the start.”
She turned back once more to gaze at the grand Golden Amethyst Gate. Standing at the gate was Theodore, dressed in a black silk shirt and tailored black trousers. He lifted his head, and his obsidian eyes were filled with mirth.
Their eyes met. Theodore tilted his head at her. His cheeks dimpled. It was an especially intoxicating sight.
He stepped aside, inviting Elara to enter the Golden Amethyst Gate.
Chapter 153
Elara saw Leonard seated at the head of the conference hall he moment she stepped inside. He looked unparalleled.
Leonard casually glanced at her. It seemed he had been walling for her for a long time.
On the first floor of the banquet hall, several Fisher Corp shareholders had already surrounded Harvey.
“Harvey, how did your meeting with your ex–wife go last week?”
One of the shareholders sounded anxious. “Did Ms. Jones agree to take the position as our CTO?”
