Chapter 144


    Of course, Sherlyn thought Corinne was bluffing. She rolled her eyes and sneered, “Who is it, then?


    Tell us his name.”


    Corinne answered faintly. “The president of Newmoon Group, Xante Yatco.”


    “Newmoon Group?” Surprised, Sherlyn unconsciously exchanged looks with her mother in disbelief.


    Marvin asked curiously, “Are you referring to Newmoon Group, established three years ago but is


    developing rapidly and almost at the same level as the four major groups?”


    Corinne nodded. “Yes, the one and only.”


    Marvin continued, “I heard the president is a youngdy.”


    Corinne nodded again. “Yes. A beautiful youngdy, at that.”


    Sherlyn sighed inment. “Corinne, stop lying. How on earth do you know the president of


    Newmoon Group? I think you’re just fooling us to avoid taking responsibility!”


    After hearing that, Marvin’s expression looked serious again. He questioned, “Corinne, do you know


    the president of Newmoon Group? How do you know her? Tell us.”


    Corinne exined honestly, “I happened to find her phone on the road and returned it to her. I heard


    there was an important document on the phone and that it’d be a nightmare if she lost it. Out of


    gratitude, she wanted to offer me something as a reward, but I didn’t ept it at the time. She thus told


    me that if I’m ever in trouble or need any help, I can look for her. She even gave me her name card,”


    She reached into her pocket to take out the name card. Before she could show it to Marvin, Lilliana


    quickly snatched it from her with greed shing in her eyes.


    The quality of the name card was solid. The letters were very exquisite with a thinyer of silver


    alongside the edges of the name card. The high-ss quality suggested it was not a name card from


    just anyone.


    Xante’s name was printed on the name card, along with her contact number.


    Still, Lilliana was dubious when she saw it. “Corinne, this name card doesn’t prove anything. Unless


    you call this person, we’ll have a hard time believing in you.”


    Sherlyn agreed with what her mother said. “That’s right. How do we know if this phone number is even


    hers? Heck, we don’t even know if this is a real number.”

    Marvin, too, agreed with them. “Corinne, call this number now. Let’s see if this number really belongs to


    Miss Xante.”


    Corinne frowned helplessly. “Fine. I’ll call the number.”


    Under the watchful gazes of her father, stepmother, and Sherlyn, she took out her phone and called the


    number stated on the name card.


    “Hello. Is this Miss Xante? I’m Corinne Carew.”


    The call connected to the other end. Marvin and Lilliana red at Corinne while she asked if the person


    on the other end was interested in investing in a movie.


    At the same moment, Sherlyn frowned with disgust and rolled her eyes. All in all, she still thought.


    Corinne was faking it. She did not trust Corinne could truly talk and negotiate with a big shot like. the


    president of Newmoon Group.


    Suddenly, Corinne passed the phone to her. “Sherlyn, Miss Xante wants to talk to you. She’d like to ask


    about the movie.”


    Sherlyn was dumbstruck. Even so, she was ready to expose Corinne with a sarcastic look on her face.


    She spoke, “Hello?”
