Chapter 6 Tone-Deaf


    Mnie knew that if the deals between Jones Enterprise and the other partners copsed tonight, everything would be on her.


    Lately, Lena’s father, Daniel Jones, who was also Mnie’s uncle, had joined forces with the board of directors and threatened


    her mother to resign from her CEO position several times. It appeared that Lena must have been working with her father to have


    their hands on those pictures.


    If Mnie were to allow that to happen, she would have failed her mother, who was still giving everything she had to Jones


    Enterprise.


    At this moment, Annie ran into the ballroom and stood beside her, out of breath. She said, “Mnie, I’ve sent my men to control


    the backstage. Once my men are there, they’ll cut off the screen.”


    “Let it be.”


    Mnie raised her eyes and stared into the screen calmly.


    Annie asked anxiously, “Are you sure?”


    Mnie nodded in agreement. She took out her phone calmly and logged into her personal email ount to retrieve some data


    before sending it to Annie. “Get your guys to include this in the slideshow. Loop it with the pictures.”


    Feeling Mnie’s familiar aura, Annie felt more confident. As such, she took the data from her, snuck through the crowd, and left


    the ballroom.


    “Mnie.”


    Lena’s eyes were filled with hostility. She was not nning to leave a way out for Mnie as she said in an unruly tone, “You


    only care for yourself. You never considered what would happen to Jones Enterprise. | heard my father say these businesses are


    vital to Jones Enterprise.”


    “Are you sure that we aren’t able to close the deal just because of a few pictures?”


    Mnie held her cane and positioned herself before saying confidently, “Well, let''s make a bet. What if | can close the deals?”


    Lena looked like she had heard a joke, and she could not help but burst outughing. “Mnie, there’s enough time to take back


    what you''ve said.”


    “Stop messing around. What do you think?” Mnie was not backing off.


    “Fine!”


    Lena was more afraid that Mnie would take back what she said. Therefore, she quickly came out with a wicked bet. “If you


    lose, you''ll pole dance on the stage.”


    “Deal.”


    Mnie agreed to Lena’s bet. “But if | win, you''ll have to sing for us on stage.”


    Lena was stunned for a second.


    The crowd murmured as they heard their bets. Both of their personalities were pr opposites.


    Lena appeared pure on the surface but harbored a wicked side within. Her wanting a cripple to pole dance on stage was a clear


    attempt to shame Mnie. However, they never thought that Mnie would be so merciful because to an influencer like Lena,


    singing a song was no big deal to her.


    However, only Lena knew in her heart that she was tone-deaf. The singles that she released were touched up by a sound


    engineer at a cost of hundreds of thousands of dors. If she were to perform in public, she would be jeopardizing her reputation.


    The crowd around them started heckling, so Lena had no choice but to agree. She then nced in the direction of the partners


    and noticed their disapproving expressions, ignoring the directors’ exnations. This sight boosted her confidence significantly.


    Lena thought Mnie said this on a whim, so what was she afraid of?


    “Fine, deal!” Lena agreed to Mnie''s bet.


    Hearing this, Mnie lowered her eyes as hostility shed across her eyes.


    Shortly after, someone in the crowd shouted, “Huh? Look, what is that?!”


    Suddenly, the pictures on the big screen transitioned to documents, zooming in for everyone to see. The crowd noticed that they


    were copies of Bryan''s media firm’s contracts. These were among the pictures featuring Mnie socializing with various


    businessmen. Soon, the crowd understood what was happening.


    “These contracts are linked to the people in the pictures. Look, Miss Jones’ name is on the contracts as well. So, she was the


    one who dealt with the businessmen personally.”


    The tables had turned in an instant.From N?velDrama.Org.


    “If that’s the case, Young Lady Jones has exceptional business capabilities. She was the one who closed the deals for some of


    the major projects of Bryan’s media firm!”


    “I''m surprised that Young Lady Jones is a gorgeous woman with extraordinary businesspetencies! It’s a blessing to the


    Wests that Bryan has a fiancée like her.”


    The crowd shifted their perception toward Mnie. Not only did she showcase her professional abilities on the big screen, but


    she also maintained a dignified demeanor while they were badmouthing her earlier. As expected of a youngdy from a


    prestigious family...
