Predestined Bride

Upon entering the Jarrett Group, Summer felt the tension in the company.

She met Vicky in the tea room.

Vicky’s eyes were bloodshot. Obviously she had not slept well last night.

As soon as she saw Summer, she walked towards her on high heels, “You want to destroy the Jarrett Group, don’t you? Ever since you came, the Jarrett Group hasn’t had a day of peace.”

Summer did not say anything.

Did she ever live peacefully ever since she was born in the Jarretts?

Did she ever live peacefully when she was forced to marry into the Emersons?

“I don’t want to destroy the Jarrett Group, and I don’t think I have that much ability. The Jarrett Group was founded by grandfather, which has been a faithful brand in the industry for decades. Don’t you know why it has become like this?”

Summer did not know much about business management, but she knew about the general situation of the Jarrett Group.

Lynn’s father founded the Jarrett Group from scratch, who was tactful and kind. He wasn’t an expert in business, but he had a way with people, with his personality slightly stubborn.

As was said, all businessmen were profiteers, but Lynn’s father was not one of them. Therefore, the Jarrett Group had not developed much in the past few decades though being labeled as an old brand.

Then Lynn’s father handed the Jarrett Group over to Lynn. In the first few years, Lynn made products honestly. But in recent years, he got complacent and began to cheat.

A few days ago, loopholes appeared in the project and the company’s capital chain got in trouble, and then the factory was exposed for its dirty work. The Jarrett Group fell into the biggest crisis since its founding.

“Nonsense!” Vicky did not care about Summer’s words at all, “Do you dare to follow me to Dad’s and say it again?”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Of course!”

Actually, Summer did not want to see the Jarrett Group collapse like this. Many employees of the Jarrett Group followed Lynn’s father and worked in the company for most of their lives. They really had feelings for the Jarrett Group.

She was not a sage. On a personal level, if the Jarrett Group collapsed, she might feel satisfied.

However, the satisfaction was only temporary. If the Jarrett Group collapsed, a large number of employees would lose their jobs, which was a conceivable result.

She couldn’t play dumb as if she knew nothing.

Leonardo was the boss of Tip Top Media Company, so he was definitely the one who planned Adams’ matter.

In order to force Lynn’s father to return home, Leonardo frequently took measures in secret. If Lynn’s father did not return, he might really destroy the Jarrett Group.

How could Lynn be a match for a man who had become the leader of the entertainment industry at the age of twenty-six?

…

“Dad, Summer is here!”

Vicky pulled Summer to Lynn’s office.

“Summer, what did you talk with Adams about yesterday? How did this happen?” Lynn stood up from behind his desk and walked out.

Summer shook her head, “Nothing.”

“Nothing? Then how did it end up like this?” Vicky looked at her mockingly, “You must have said something to Adams and offended him. The topic on the Internet was obviously heated by someone who paid the trolls to do it.”

“How did you persuade Adams back then? Did he say that he would definitely sign a contract with the Jarrett Group? Use your brain to think about it. With his status, why did he agree to take the Jarrett Group’s endorsement?”

Since this matter had something to do with Leonardo, it was a trap that had been set up from the beginning without any doubt.

“The love for beauty is common to all men. No matter how famous Adams is, he is still a man.” Vicky’s subtext was that Adams had taken a fancy to her, which was why he agreed to take the Jarrett Group’s endorsement.

Not to mention Summer, even Lynn did not believe it.

Lynn waved, “Vicky, what did Adams tell you at that time?”

“He … praised me for my charm and then said that he could give it a try.” As Vicky spoke, her face turned red.

Summer sneered. Did Vicky take a fancy to Adams?

“Didn’t you say that Adams had already agreed to sign a contract with our company?” Lynn furrowed and said in a deep voice.

“I think that’s almost the case. If I knew something like this would happen, I would go talk to him about signing the contract the next day.”

Vicky now regretted it. The main reason why she let Summer talk about the contract was that she felt that Adams was already interested in her. She could not take too much initiative. She wanted to play hard to get and wait for him to find her.

Seeing that Lynn’s expression was getting darker and darker, Vicky did not dare to speak again.

In her opinion, it was all Adams’ fault!

Lynn sat down on the sofa and sighed, his voice filled with fatigue, “Someone wants to make trouble for the Jarrett Group.”

“Yes, since Adams did not directly reject the Jarrett Group’s invitation, this has been a trap.” Summer pondered for a moment and said, “Perhaps earlier.”

Lynn turned to look at Summer, as if this was the first time he knew her.

Summer met his gaze and continued, “Because Adams couldn’t accept the endorsement of the Jarrett Group. Something strange must be wrong.”

Lynn stared at Summer for a moment before nodding, “You’re right.”

After Leonardo helped the Jarrett Group, Lynn naturally got complacent. He realized Leonardo’s ability and naturally felt that it was just a piece of cake for Adams, an actor, to take the Jarrett Group’s endorsement.

However, such a great calamity added insult to injury of the Jarrett Group which was just recovering.

When Vicky saw that Lynn was actually praising Summer, she was immediately unhappy.

“Dad, what’s the point of what she said? Adams treats me differently. I think he definitely likes me. I’ll take care of this and get him to confess in front of the media that he took the endorsement of the Jarrett Group because of me!”

Vicky’s confident appearance shocked Summer.

Confidence was good, but this was the first time she had seen someone as complacent as Vicky.

She didn’t know what kind of woman Adams would like.

Perhaps it was the daughter of a well-matched and famous family, or a woman with an ordinary appearance and family background, but all of them definitely had their advantages.

It definitely wouldn’t be someone like Vicky. What advantages did Vicky have? Will anyone like her because of her promiscuity or her extraordinary confidence?

Lynn fiercely patted the coffee table and shouted angrily, “Stop messing around!”

“I’m not messing around.” Vicky raised her chin confidently and glanced at Summer before leaving.

Lynn was so angry that he couldn’t say a word as he pointed in the direction of the door.

“I’m going out first.”

Summer did not stay to comfort Lynn.

He deserved to be pissed off by his daughter who had been spoiled by himself!
