Chapter 470: Chapter 470

Rebecca Lowell accepted everyone’s congratulations with pride and complacency, "You really know how to talk, so I’ll host a dinner at The Grandeur Hotel later."

"Oh my God, is it that super five-star hotel?"

"We’re in for a treat!"

Millie Langley heard these words and a look of disappointment appeared on her face as she sighed quietly. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by ɴovᴇl(ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt

It seems Nina Sinclair had no chance at all, such a pity!

Nina Sinclair saw Millie Langley’s expression and guessed what she was thinking.

She gently curled her lips, rubbed Millie Langley’s head, and comforted, "Millie, don’t be sad, we’ll have another chance in the future."

At this moment, Mr. Ji came out of the meeting room.

He heard Rebecca Lowell’s conversation with these people and slightly furrowed his brows, then interrupted them, saying, "I’m very sorry, the person I selected is Miss Sinclair. She is extremely outstanding and perfectly meets all the qualifications a leader should have."

As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings fell into a sudden silence.

Everyone exchanged confused glances, seemingly doubting their own ears.

What did Mr. Ji just say? He chose Nina Sinclair instead of Rebecca Lowell?

What in the world is going on?

Didn’t President Lancaster already arrange everything for Rebecca Lowell? He just announced that Zenith had the opportunity to cooperate, which surely meant Rebecca Lowell had won too, right? How could it turn into Nina Sinclair?

Rebecca Lowell’s smile froze on her face, her voice suddenly rising as she questioned, "What did you say? You chose Nina Sinclair?"

Her sharp voice made Mr. Ji’s brow furrow tightly, "Indeed, everyone saw just now, Miss Sinclair is extremely outstanding. Compared to you, she is much more excellent, and I have no favoritism."

Mr. Ji was unwilling to say such unpleasant words publicly, but Rebecca Lowell’s dissatisfied questioning just now made him very unhappy, so he felt there was no need to be polite to her.

Then, Mr. Ji turned to Nina Sinclair, his demeanor instantly becoming gentle, as if changing faces, and he said softly, "Miss Sinclair, my wife is very eager to meet you. I wonder if you’re available for dinner tonight?"

"Uh... sure." Nina Sinclair was a little flattered.

Mr. Ji’s wife is a professor at the academy, she’d really like to meet her.

Now she’s a bit curious about which professor Mrs. Ji might be; maybe she knows her.

Rebecca Lowell heard this and belatedly reacted.

Could it be Nina Sinclair went through the back door?

With President Lancaster’s strong identity and status, Mr. Ji wouldn’t give him any face at all?

Thinking of this, Rebecca Lowell couldn’t help but stand up abruptly, unwillingly asking, "Mr. Ji, are you mistaken? I am Rebecca Lowell. Didn’t President Lancaster say anything to you? How did you end up choosing Nina Sinclair?"

Mr. Ji heard Rebecca Lowell’s questioning tone and his expression darkened.

He said coldly, "Miss Lowell, do you have any doubts about my decision? At Bertha, we never engage in favoritism or malpractice. All choices just now were fair and impartial, without any issues, and I will not compromise for anyone’s sake, so please refrain from speaking nonsense and damaging our company’s reputation."

Rebecca Lowell’s face turned pale after hearing Mr. Ji’s words, having lost all face.

She didn’t expect such a mistake to occur; surely Nina Sinclair used some means to confuse Mr. Ji, causing him to disregard President Lancaster’s instructions and choose Nina Sinclair instead as his partner!

Millie Langley was shocked by Mr. Ji’s words, her mouth hanging open in surprise.

She murmured, "My God! It’s really a twist of fate, didn’t expect Director Sinclair to win! Mr. Ji is truly fair! This is simply wonderful!"

Originally, everyone thought Rebecca Lowell had President Lancaster’s backing, and others would definitely be under her thumb.

The others likely had the same thoughts as Millie Langley, and this unexpected conclusion surprised them greatly, causing them to start discussing.

"Rebecca Lowell’s background is useless, seems like capability matters more!"

"Haha, Rebecca Lowell was acting all smug before, why do I feel it’s rather satisfying now?"

"Yes, who told her to be so high-profile, now she’s thoroughly embarrassed! Mr. Ji doesn’t care at all."
