She was huddled in the corner by a pillar, tears streaming down her face.<\/p>\n<p>He approached her gently, removed his coat, and draped it over her shoulders. \u201cHey, don\u2019t be upset. Being the director of Wilson Group isn\u2019t the end-all; you\u2019re capable of so much more\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Claire looked up, her voice trembling as she replied, \u201cYou don\u2019t understand. If I become the director, my parents will finally hold their heads high in the family. How could Grandma go back on her word\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Charlie persisted, \u201cWho knows? They might come crawling back, begging you to take the position. But look at you now with that tear-streaked face; you won\u2019t look your best when it\u2019s time to go on stage\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo way, it\u2019s impossible. Grandma has already announced it; there\u2019s no turning back now. You should go inside and leave me alone\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At that moment, Lady Wilson and Harold burst out of the hall. The elderly lady was out of breath from running, followed by a throng of onlookers eager to witness the unfolding drama.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as Harold spotted Charlie and Claire, he rushed over, glancing down at Claire\u2019s tear-stained face. \u201cClaire, you need to talk to Miss Young right away! Don\u2019t let her terminate our contract!\u201d he urged, anxiety etched on his face.<\/p>\n<p>Claire blinked in confusion. \u201cTerminate our contract? Why?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Harold snapped, \u201cStop pretending! You must have told Miss Young to humiliate me in front of everyone! If you don\u2019t fix this, I won\u2019t let you off the hook!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With a sharp slap, Lady Wilson reprimanded Harold again. \u201cHow dare you speak to your sister like that! She is our director at Wilson Group!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Harold, fuming, protested, \u201cGrandma, didn\u2019t you say you wanted me to be the director?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it weren\u2019t for your manipulation, I wouldn\u2019t have changed my mind so suddenly! Keep this up, and you\u2019ll be out of the Wilson family!\u201d she retorted.<\/p>\n<p>Harold seethed with anger after being slapped twice, but he knew now wasn\u2019t the time to explode. He had to hold back his rage.<\/p>\n<p>Turning to Claire, Lady Wilson pleaded, \u201cClaire, I\u2019m begging you. You\u2019re now the director of the Wilson family; please talk to Miss Young. If you don\u2019t, we\u2019re all finished!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Claire glanced at Charlie, still looking bewildered.<\/p>\n<p>Charlie shrugged and said, \u201cI told you they would come begging you to be the director, but you didn\u2019t believe me. Look at you\u2014your makeup is a mess now\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Feeling shy, Claire wiped her tears and replied, \u201cOkay, I\u2019ll try to reach out to Emgrand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She took out her phone and dialed Doris, with all eyes fixed on her.<\/p>\n<p>After a brief wait, Doris answered. \u201cHello, Miss Young. My grandmother has asked me to inform you that I will be taking on the role of director at Wilson Group and overseeing the project with Emgrand Group. We hope you can give us another chance\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Doris chuckled, \u201cAbsolutely! If you\u2019re the director and in charge of the project, then we can move forward. But if someone else takes that role, then it\u2019s off the table\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMiss Young\u2026 thank you so much\u2026\u201d Claire said, her mind racing with confusion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s all thanks to my chairman\u2019s decision. He might share more with you personally soon\u2026\u201d Doris added with a smile.<\/p>\n<p>This left Claire even more puzzled. Who was this chairman? She had never met him, yet he seemed determined to help her at every turn.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCould you please come back to the hall?\u201d Claire asked nervously.<\/p>\n<p>Doris had initially left because of her irritation with Claire\u2019s family, making it awkward to invite her back. Yet, to Claire\u2019s surprise, Doris agreed without hesitation. Soon, Doris\u2019s car pulled back up to the hotel entrance, sending shockwaves through the gathered crowd. Gasps of awe and fear rippled across the onlookers as they turned their attention to Claire.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center\" id=\"chapter-list\"><strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After Charlie dashed out the door, he quickly noticed that Claire hadn\u2019t gone far.
