Chapter 1379 Support The Pairing
The contract signing took place in a conference room, with two individuals at the forefront, under the watchful lenses of cameras from over a dozen media outlets. During the live broadcast, the two quickly signed the contract. Thereafter, they shook hands in front of the camera, signifying the successful completion of the agreement. This marked Josie's first official appearance since returning to her homeland, and notably, she did so as a member of the Olsen family. It was destined to garner significant attention.
Josie's long dress and Morgan's suit complemented each other perfectly. The two of them stood together, young and radiant, a picture-perfect pair. The photographers were naturally inclined to take a few extra shots.
What followed was a press interview, some routine stuff.
Inside Olsen Residence, Mark was attentively watching the television. He couldn't help but nod in approval. "I've always said this is the path Josie should take. Just look at her. She's not a bit nervous, so composed and confident. Isn't she doing great?"
Claudia couldn't help but chuckle, finding it a bit hard to bear. "You're acting as if you're desperate for people to know you have a daughter," she said.
Mark was indeed proud.
Suddenly, something occurred to him. "That man over there, is he the one in charge of Eccentric Corporation? He looks so familiar to me."
After taking a glance, Claudia couldn't recall. "I feel like I've seen him somewhere before."
"They make quite a pair."
Claudia clicked her tongue, promptly nudging a warning with her elbow. Mark could only helplessly shrug in response.
This entire scene unfolded before Laura, who was standing behind. No one knew how long she had been standing there or how much she had heard. She was watching the man and woman on the television, standing together in perfect harmony.
She noticed that during the interview, Josie accidentally knocked over the pen on the table. No one noticed, only Morgan did. He bent down, picked it up, and placed it back where it belonged.
The two of them seemed to have a strong understanding of each other.
When he was by her side, his smile, incredibly, bore no trace of pretense.
The servant saw her standing there, seemingly frozen, and wanted to call out to her. But Laura quickly came back to her senses and shook her head at her.
The incident with the pen didn't just catch the attention of Laura, but also the reporters on the scene.
On that day, posts started to circulate, not only highlighting the significance of this strategic collaboration but also mentioning the wealth and backgrounds of the two people in charge. The
interaction on-site was also over
described, with the language used hinting at a potential romantic partnership.
Coupled with photos taken, the two unintentionally ended up trending, and the netizens were quick to voice their opinions.
The handsome man and beautiful woman are working on a deal together! These two are very easy on my eyes!
These two are going places! It was all prearranged, wasn't it? Not only do their faces match, but so do their outfits. Anyone who didn't know better might think it was a wedding ceremony. It's just a charade by the young lovers.
Morgan had also seen that picture. With him standing beside Josie in his silver suit, they did seem like they were getting married.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
For some reason, Morgan ordered, "Get me the negative of this photo."
Ryan furrowed his brows. "Mr. Bastille..."
"When I tell you to do something, do it."
"Understood."
Inside Olsen Residence, Josie was visibly frustrated. "Take down the trending search. I'm not a celebrity," she said.
Laura served her a bowl of soup, chuckling as she said, "It's just gossip. No one takes it seriously."
Josie didn't think so. If Dexter sees it, he'll definitely take it seriously.
Seeing her in a daze, Laura nonchalantly said, "You and Morgan have been close for so many years. There's nothing wrong with forming a strong alliance. In doing so, Olsen Group could also gain popularity among the younger generation."
"Relying on being a popular pairing? I have no thoughts on that."
Josie carried a heavy heart, constantly preoccupied with thoughts of Dexter. It had been four days, yet not a single piece of news came from his side.
Mark could sense her troubles, and he said, "If you're worried about Grape, bring her over. The Olsen family can certainly afford to raise another child."
