Chapter 1179


    The new Holden Group building was designed and constructed by Newmoon Group. However, the


    company representative sent an apologetic email saying Moon the architect would not be able to attend


    the ribbon-cutting as she was upied. However, to show thepany’s sincerity, the president of


    Newmoon Group would attend on Moon’s behalf.


    Holden Group’s directors were furious when they found out about this. They would not ept


    Newmoon Group’s president to attend on the architect’s behalf. They even went so far as to think that


    Newmoon Group was cursing them to fail.


    Jeremy did not believe in all that mumbo-jumbo, but as the president of Holden Group, he had to


    respect the board of directors’ wishes. Thus, he called Xante to let her know that hispany would


    not pay the remaining bnce of the payment unless Moon went to the ribbon-cutting ceremony.


    150 million dors was not a small sum. That amount of money could spell the life or death of


    Newmoon Group. Thus, Xante was understandably upset.


    “Mister Jeremy, you’re being unreasonable. How can you threaten us with non-payment to force us into


    cooperation?”


    “Who’s the one being unreasonable here?” asked Jeremy coldly. “You know what it means when the


    architect doesn’t attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony, right? Do I really need to tell you what the news


    would say about mypany if they get wind of this? Miss Xante, I highly advise you to bring Moon to


    the ribbon-cutting ceremony if you want yourpany to survive in New Capital City.”


    On the other side of the phone, Xante pushed up her gold-rimmed sses. “Well, you’ve certainly


    proved me wrong, Mister Jeremy. I thought you wouldn’t believe in superstitious mumbo-jumbo.”Books

    “I don’t, but it doesn’t matter as this is what many other corporations believe. I believe not one of them


    will do business with you again if you insist on not bringing Moon to the ribbon-cutting ceremony.”


    Jeremy hung up the phone after that.


    Xante was speechless. It was not that Newmoon Group wanted to curse Holden Group, but how was


    she supposed to get Moon—who was actually Corinne—to join the ribbon-cutting ceremony when her


    boss had been trying to hide from Jeremy for the past six months?


    It would be a disaster if Corinne was to meet with Jeremy again!


    At first, Xante toyed with the idea of getting someone to impersonate Moon for the ribbon-cutting


    ceremony since no photo of Moon was ever circted publicly before. In other words, no one knew


    what she really looked like.

    Jeremy had seen Moon once when he came to thepany, but she was wearing a mask then, so he


    did not really get a good look at her. What Xante worried about was that Jeremy, who was familiar with


    Moon’s work, would get suspicious if the impersonator failed to answer any of his questions. Xante


    would rather not deal with the bacsh if she could help it.


    ‘But what should I do now? It’s not like I can ask the boss to attend, right? That’s as good as selling her


    out!’


    …


    Meanwhile, Jeremy walked out of hispany building to attend an important business banquet. He


    pinched the bridge of his nose tiredly after getting into the car. He looked like something was weighing


    heavy on his mind.


    Corinne had seemingly vanished into thin air. No one had seen her, and there was no immigration or


    purchasing record or news of her. He initially suspected Xante and Aaron were hiding Corinne. After all,


    even if she did not want him, she would not abandon her old friends, right?


    Thus, he arranged for his men to watch Xante and Aaron’s every move.


    s, they did nothing to warrant any suspicions at all.
