Chapter 304
Cordelia froze, feeling embarrassed, as she listened to thements around her.
Donald rolled his eyes arrogantly as he spoke. His assistants made way for him, and he rushed for
the door.
When they left, an assistant ran into Cordelia. It was unknown whether that was intentional.
Cordelia lost her bnce and nearly fell, dropping the interview equipment in her hands.
“Hey, what are you doing?!” Her cameraman was angry for her.
Cordelia stopped him. “Forget it…”
“Wahl Street elite? This is the kind of people Wahl Street has?”
“Alright, let’s not argue with them here,” Cordelia said softly. “We won’t get anything out of the crowd
here. We’ll only be embarrassing ourselves if we keep making a fuss. Would you want to get
scolded by the chief editor?
“Why don’t you head back first?” Cordelia gave it a thought. “I’ll think of somethingter and see if I
can make it to the next talk!”
The cameraman let out a heavy breath. He had other tasks in the agency, so he could only leave as
she instructed.
N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
The surrounding gazes on Cordelia felt like knives stabbing her. It was as if they were mocking that
she was overestimating herself.
She rposed herself and was going to pick up her things from the floor when she realized that
the hall had gone incredibly quiet. Everyone’s gaze was on the door. She then heard the strong
sound of heels clicking against the floor.
Donald halted as well. When he saw who it was, he looked both surprised and obsequious. He
quickly went up and fawned over the woman, “Madam Baker, what brings you here?”
“I heard you have a finance talk here, Mr. West,” Janine answered tly. “So I’m here to learn!”
“You must be joking, Madam Baker! What are my petty skills before you?”
Janine removed her sunsses. Her gaze was indecipherable as she wore a smirk like she was
angry but not. The impact of her presence made it too scary for one to act boldly in front of her.
“You’re too humble!” Janine looked at him. “An elite back from Wahl Street. Your experience in
investing must be a lot more than ours.”
“You’re ttering me…”
“I’m also looking for suitable investment projectsing back to Centrolis.” Janine smiled. “Are you
interested in introducing a couple to me?”
Donald’s eyes glowed immediately as they widened.
Who was Janine Baker? She was basically mission impossible, yet she stood before him today to
talk about investing with him?
He would be a fool not to seize this opportunity!
“Madam Baker!” Donald rubbed his hands together, grinning from ear to ear. “The current
investment environment in Centrolis is truly decent! If you want to make investments here, I’ll be
happy to provide full assistance!
“Hah… Mypany’s actually specialized in investing. I guarantee you’ll make a profit!”
“Really?” Janine raised a brow with aplex smirk.
“May I know how big a scale yourpany is, Mr. West?”
“Ourpany’s registered capital is $7,000,000!” Donald straightened up proudly and adjusted his
necktie. “We invested in several projects recently and saw hundreds of thousands of dors of
return—”
Before he finished his sentence, Janine interrupted him. “Are you joking with me, Mr. West?
“Only $7,000,000? Then don’t work with me. Any project of the investmentpanies I’ve worked
with makes $150,000,000 in profit!”
Donald stared at her dumbly.
Janine spoke with emphasis. “Being arrogant is easy. The point is, you have to have what it takes
for you to be arrogant!”
She pulled out her phone to call her assistant. “cklist Donald West. The Baker Group, alongside
all the holdingpanies of the Hamerton Group, will never work with this man!”
Donald was pale and drenched in a cold sweat. He had no idea what he had said that offended this
she-devil!
Janine rolled her eyes at him and walked toward Cordelia. She picked up what thetter had
scattered on the floor and put a hand on her shoulder, giving her a warm smile.
Everyone in the hall looked at Cordelia with bated breaths and in disbelief.
