?Chapter 681:


    “Exactly, businessmen these days only care about money, and Dani is known as one of the best at what she does. Isn’t that clear?”


    The executives of Phillips Group didn’t know how to respond as the situation spiraled out of control.


    Dani remained calm as she addressed the room.


    “Can someone tell me which reporter justbeled me an outsider to Cedric and Phillips Group?”


    Her words stunned the crowd below the stage into silence.


    Given Elite Lux’s power, Dani held significant sway. Whispering behind her back was one thing, but who would dare openly challenge her? Only someone foolish enough to invite disaster would dare.


    The crowd recoiled, too intimidated to voice their thoughts. The executives of Phillips Group seethed silently, cursing the troublemakers in their midst.


    Dani surveyed the room, her face a mask of seriousness.


    “No one will own up to it? Should I review the surveince footage? Let me find out which reporter called me an outsider to Phillips Group.”


    As she finished, Ryan made his way to check the footage. In that moment, a hand shot up from the crowd, and a wiry man with a sharp face stood.


    His tone was a mix of challenge and resignation as he said, “I said it. Did I say something out of line? Everyone knows Mr. Phillips has been pursuing you, but you’ve never returned his feelings, have you? How is that not being an outsider? Am I mistaken? If so, prove me wrong and show the proof.”


    Phillips Group’s executives couldn’t stand by and watch Dani being pushed into a corner.


    One of them rose to his feet, his frustration written all over his face.

    But before he could say a word, Dani reached into her bag and revealed a document. It was a marriage certificate. The executives were the first to notice it, and they froze in shock.


    The rest of the room stared at the document with growing curiosity.


    Elyse’s eyes narrowed sharply, a sense of unease twisting in her gut.


    When Dani finally raised the certificate for everyone to see, the room fell into stunned silence.


    No one was more shaken than the reporter who had spoken out earlier.


    Hisplexion turned ashen as he stared at the certificate.


    “This is absurd!” he eximed, breaking the silence with augh that bordered on hysteria.


    “A marriage certificate? Really? Dani, are you trying to tell us that you and Cedric are actually married? How could that possibly be true? Given your prominence and Cedric’s status, a wedding between you two wouldn’t go unnoticed. This has to be fake!”


    The idea seemed inconceivable. If two titans of the business world like Dani and Cedric had tied the knot, the news would have sent shockwaves through the corporate world. How could something so monumental have stayed under wraps? “This has to be forged!”


    Just then, Ryan stepped forward and yed a surveince clip, showing Dani and Cedric at City Hall, officially registering their marriage.


    The room erupted into gasps.


    “It’s real? I know that registrar! She handled my marriage paperwork, too!”
