Trial Of Love

Chapter 185

The next day

News of Quorum Corp owned by President Ye went bankrupt and was purchased by the Knightley family. It was such a big news since the company was a stable company. The business column of every newspaper and TV program covered all the possibilities why the company went bankrupt and reason to why the Knightley family purchased it.

[President Ye was caught cheating.]

[President Ye"s mistress dragged out by his wife stripped naked in the public.]

[President Ye"s wife hand over her share to Knightley family at the same time filed for divorce.]

[Knightley family to rule over China.]

Outside Imperial EStar building, Zhao Weiwei and Robert Knightley have arrived causing such a buzz within the reports for it was the first time they saw the couple attend a shareholders" meeting together for another company.

Inside the meeting room, the other shareholders were all anxious as they await the couple"s arrival.

As the two walked inside the meeting room, everyone"s attention turned towards the door. They all stood up straight like a military soldier as they were in the G.o.ddess"s presence and The European King.

"Everyone it"s good to see you all." Zhao Weiwei happily greeted them walking side by side with her cold husband.

Since Chairman Zhu was in the hospital, he could not attend the shares meeting and was represented by his daughter.

Everyone showed such hostility towards the girl. They showed no respect towards her even though she was the Chairman"s daughter. The fact rumors about her being caught with her professor who was already with a family during her University years. But for Zhao Weiwei the story is different...

After what happened to her daughter, they"ve investigated all President Zhu"s wrongdoings and found out he actually paid the professor and asked him to lie in order to take the presidential seat.

"Lady Zhao, Lord Knightley, my father could not be here today so I came in his stead."

"Such a good child." Zhao Weiwei smiled, "Everyone lets begin the meeting."

Some members of the company apart from the shareholders were shocked to find out that the legendary Lord Knightley has purchased some of the shares. At the same time giving everything to his wife making her the biggest shareholder.

Zhu Xinyue looked depressed, the fact the Zhao are now the biggest shareholder just means her family now needs to handover the company to them. At the same time, Lady Zhao was now the Chairwoman. She felt defeated and curious as to what her Uncle have done to have the Knightley and Zhao family get involved with the company suddenly. Since Lady Zhao became a member of the company 10 years ago, she never joined in in any shareholders" meeting and entrusted everything to her father.

"Secondly, as the new Chairwoman, I"ll be hosting a party to inform everyone of the new president of the company."

"Lady Zhao, but currently President Zhu is the president."

"Weren"t you the one who agreed to let him be the President?"

Unlike Zhao Weiwei who likes to keep things under control, Robert Knightley was frank and mean with his words. "Why would I f*cking let a company I just purchased be handled by a disgusting b*stard who dared lay his sh*ty hands on my daughter?"

It shocked everyone to find out such news, they all wonder how President Zhu ended up in the hospital. When they asked him he dares not say a word about it.

Zhao Weiwei sighed, "I don"t need to further explain. As the new Chairwoman, you do know what must be exposed and what aren"t, so please be careful."

Everyone just nodded there head, the man"s expression was too frightening, at the same time, they never expected the women could express such devilish smile.

Zhu Xinyue smiled knowing something bad happened to her Uncle. After all these years, finally, karma had befallen upon him. She smiled brightly as she looked at the couple as if she was telling them. "Thank you."

"Then everyone, I see you tomorrow evening." She smiled as her husband helped her up her seat.

No gossip in the company about what happened spread, who would dare go against them after finding out what happened to President Zhu.

Meanwhile in Lotus Mall Complex.

Elizabeth was waiting with Long and Chou as she awaits for her parents to show up. Since Long and Chou were in uniform and were wearing the Zhao family crest. Loads of people crowd Elizabeth from behind as they whispered to each other.

"That the Young Princess…"

"Is she waiting for someone?"

Whilst Elizabeth enjoyed her cup of tea, she notices a familiar person amongst the crowd pa.s.sing by. She got up from where she was seated and hastily approached the woman.

"Madam Yun…"

It surprise Madam Yun and her companions to see the person calling for her. Since no one knew what Elizabeth looked like but since Long and Chou were wearing the Zhao family crest, it was not hard for them to identify who was standing in front of them.

"Young Princess, it"s good to see you again."

"Madam Yun, it"s great to see you too, I see you out with your friends," Elizabeth acknowledges their presence seeing the surprised looked on their faces.

"Young Princess, this is Feng Jaio and Shao Lin."

Elizabeth smiled and greeted them, "Madam Feng, Madam Shao a pleasure to meet you both."

"Young Princess the pleasure is mine."

"Same, an honor to meet you."

"Madam Yun if you and your friends aren"t busy, can you spare me some of your time for a cup of tea." Elizabeth softly pleads as she then looked at the two men and giggled, "As you see, Bro Long and Bro Chou aren"t that good of a companion."

The two ladies nodded signifying they don"t mind

"Sure."

As they all returned to Elizabeth"s table, they all settled down at the table as they await for the order.

Moments later, quite a few people have surrounded then. For Zhu Xinya and her friends, it was quite awkward and they felt out of place.

Elizabeth gave them a rea.s.suring smile, "Ignored them, Madam, they will only stare at you and gossip. If they dare slander you, I will personally handle it."

"Young Princess, we aren"t worried that they might slander us, but you." Madam Feng spoke.

"No need to worries ladies…" A gentle woman"s voice came from behind them.

"Lady Zhao."

"Lord Knightley."

The three of them were shocked to see the couple approaching them. For the two ladies, it was a great privilege, their simple day out turn into such a great day.

"Mom, Dad, how did the meeting go?"

Robert Knightley expressed an affectionate embrace towards her daughter shocking everyone around them, towards others, he is cold and evil but to his daughter, he was someone else.

"Daddy has handled everything."

"Madam Yun, it"s good to see you again." Zhao Weiwei said as she exchanges greetings with each other.

"Lady Zhao, Lord Knightley, this our my friends Feng Jaio and Shao Lin."

The two greeted the legendary couple anxiously. As they all gathered at the table and enjoyed each other company. The two ladies explained to them what their family does. It surprises them when the man became interested suddenly.

"Madam Yun, why not invite President Yun. Why don"t you ladies invite your husband as well? Let"s all have lunch together…" Robert Knightley suggested seeing how much life the ladies have brought back to his daughter. The fact the event last time still concerns him...

The three of them were surprised that the man himself asked them out. Of course, they did not hesitate and immediately called their husband informing them of the good news.
