Chapter 36
Meanwhile, the police appeared in the hall and came over after confirming the location of the suspects to be arrested.
“Sherry Harrington and Madeleine Donovan, please go to the police station with us.”
Seeing that they were about to be taken away, Carol ran forward anxiously to stop them. However, she accidentally stepped on the hem of her dress and hit her head. Then she passed out directly.
The police took Sherry and Madeleine away, and Jensen helped Carol who passed out up and left.
That was the end of the farce.
Seeing that the people who should leave had already left, Patrick took Gilda to the center of the hall and introduced her.
“Hello, everyone. Ms. Gilda Lynch has resigned as the secretary of the Harrington Corporation’s CEO and is now the general manager of the Allath branch of Glory Corporation. Wish we can have an opportunity to collaborate with you in the future.”
Hearing that, the crowd started to chat with each other in a low voice.
“Ms. Lynch has been promoted so fast. She went to the branch of Glory Corporation so soon after she resigned from Harrington Corporation. What’s the relationship between her and Mr. Lynch?”
“Although they have the same last name, I don’t think they’re relatives. Otherwise, why would the daughter of the Lynch family get married in Allath and become a secretary for three years?”
“Anyway, she has really suffered a lot in the past three years after marrying into the Harrington family. Even if she has really cheated on her husband, it’s understandable.”
There were more similar conversations.
With Patrick as Gilda’s backer and the Harrington family exposing their problems themselves at the banquet, the negative impact caused by the trending topic had been completely erased.
All the guests had a nice contact with Gilda. After a night, Gilda got to know many new noblemen and noblewomen whom she hadn’t met before, such as Timothy Dowall, the young CEO of Stark Group.
Timothy shook his glass and took the initiative to get close to Gilda. “Hello, Ms. Lynch. I’m Timothy Dowall. I’ve heard a lot about you.”
Gilda smiled and also raised her glass to greet Timothy. “Hello, Mr. Dowall.”
The medical R&D project of Glory Corporation was about to be put into mass production, and Gilda was looking for a reliable partner. Stark Group was her first choice.
Bringing Sherry and Madeleine to justice was only the second important thing tonight. Gilda’s fundamental purpose in coming to the banquet was to get Timothy as their partner and maximize the profits of the branch company.

“Congratulations on breaking free from marriage and seeking other peaks in your life, Ms. Lynch.
Timothy’s voice was deep and inexplicably pleasing, but his eyes were sophisticated and shrewd, which made those who had seen him feel being seen through and at a loss. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Gilda’s bright and beautiful eyes showed no sign of fear at all. She looked into Timothy’s eyes and drank up the champagne in her glass. “Thank you, Mr. Dowall. I’ll visit you with business afterward. I hope you can remember our meeting today.”
Gilda wasn’t embarrassed at all. Her confident and generous attitude really impressed Timothy. He also drank up the wine and smiled, “Of course.”
The banquet was over.
Gilda returned to the Lynch family’s mansion in Allath.
Gilda had just stepped into the house when she received an e–mail from Yadira saying: [Take a look, Gilda.]
Then Gilda checked the email and found that it was a report written by Yadira herself.
It was full of accusations against the Harrington family, but it hadn’t leaked any of Gilda’s information.
The report was concise but eye–catching, and the contents could be summarized into three points. “Jensen is an unfaithful brat“, “Madeleine is a mistress who’s about to marry Jensen after she got pregnant“, and “the daughter of the Harrington family is a gangster“.
This report could piss Carol off and make her pass out and wake up again.
Gilda hurriedly called Yadira after reading it.
“Hello.” The voice on the other end of the phone was clear and decisive.
“Yadira, you really deserve to be the editor–in–chief of Global Entertainment. I’m really impressed by your literary talent.” Gilda paused and said, “Well, thank you.”
Gilda felt so happy that there were so many people who supported her and stood by her side.
Megan’s voice sounded on the phone, “Don’t be so touching, Gilda. Come.out. We’re waiting for you at Halo Club. See you later!”
A smile appeared on Gilda’s face. The three of them could enjoy tonight together. “I’ll be right there.”
“I can publish this report, right?” Yadira asked for Gilda’s opinion.
Gilda was about to answer when she heard Megan shouting, “Of course! Let the Harrington family have a taste of being the trending topic and let netizens curse them to hell!”
Gilda smiled and said, “Indeed.”.
