Chapter 97 Rushing over, Kylie offered an apologetic look to Mikayla and spoke in a formal yet polite tone, “Sorry, Mrs. Miller.

I need a moment with Mr. Miller.” She then turned to Jerand added, “Mr. Reynolds wants to see you.” Jercast a quick glance at Mikayla and whispered, “Get srest. I'll catch up with you later.” Mikayla responded with a smile, “Sure thing.” Out of the blue, Betty spoke up, “Don’t worry, Mr. Miller. We'll take good care of your wife.” Jerretained his composure upon hearing her voice, as if he had expected her arrival.

Although Kylie was puzzled by Betty's sudden appearance, she didn’t dwell on it and promptly trailed after Jerome.

Once Jerwas out of sight, those who had eyed Mikayla with envy now exchanged meaningful glances. Even with urgent matters demanding his attention, Jerstill gave his wife the cold shoulder.

Luckily, Betty swiftly stepped in and comforted Mikayla. “It’s the men’s job to deal with trifles, Mrs. Miller. Just chill out and enjoy yourself.” Turning her attention to the gathered guests, she announced, “Ladies, we have just released a new wine flavor. | have brought over ssamples for you to taste. Feel free to share your thoughts.

“Plus, I've got extra treats for you to take home. Think of it as a gift for our first meeting. No complaints allowed!” Upon hearing her words, the guests graciously SR ~ bl gifts. Betty proved herself to be a true career woman-not only was she decisive, but she also had a kMdatk for seizing opportunities.

Initially worried about potential gossip and ridicule, Mikayla was relieved to see that Betty appeared unfazed by such concerns.

In fact, Betty took the opportunity to enhance her own reputation and promote her new wine.

Mikayla was talking with the guests when an anxious voice suddenly called out, “There you are, Kay!” Turning around, she spotted Aubrey rushing toward her and couldn't help but frown. After all, they just had a big fight in the afternoon-how could Aubrey now act as if nothing had happened? Annoyed, Mikayla questioned in a disgruntled tone, “What do you want?” *Cwithfor a sec.” Undeterred by her displeasure, Aubrey seized her hand and guided her toward a group of elegantly dressed women.

*Take a good damn look here! She's Mrs. Miller! “Kylie is just a director. How can you insist that that woman is the future Mrs. Miller? You really need to get your eyes checked!” Aubrey declared to the stylish women, The women cast disdainful glances at Mikayla, and one of them scoffed. “Even if she’s the real deal, I've never seen her with Mr. Miller. Instead, it’s always Ms. White accompanying him at events” Another chimed in, “Exactly Mr. Miller treats Ms. White incredibly well.

“He not only supports her work but even goes so far as to acquire Berhal Enterprise for her, giving her the opportunity to prove her independence. Not everyone gets that kind of treatment!” “The thing is, Ms. White deserves it. She graduated from a prestigious academy and boasts an impressive investment record from her years abroad. She’s not just eye candy, unlike some,” another jeered.

Aubrey snapped back, “What are you implying? Mikayla earned her CFA while still an undergraduate. She's way better than Kylie!” One of the women sneered. “Oh, con! We all know getting a CFA is tough. Most people need to pursue a master’s or a Ph.D. for that.

“And you're saying she got it as an undergrad? Sounds fishy!” Aubrey argued, “Who are you trying to look down upon? Yeah, Mikayla’s well-off, but that doesn’t mean she bought her own degree! She worked hard for it!”

“Oh, really? Does she know about the three financial statements? Does she get the cash flow statement ?Is she aware of future finance trends?” the other woman questioned aggressively.

“Of course she does! What, you think she got her degree for nothing? Tell them Kay Show them what you've got?Aubrey argued confidently as she pulled Mikayla forward After a heated exchange, it seemed that she had just realized Mikayla was there.

Mikayla couldn't help but wonder why Aubrey brought her into this squabble. Was Aube looking to commend her or underscoring Kylies significance to Jerthrough their words? Rather than heeding Aubrey’s call to defend herself, Mikayla simply smiled.

She said, “I won't waste texplaining things you can look up on Google. It seems like your debate isn’t over yet. I'll excuse myself for now.” A woman who looked like she'd had sprocedures done snickered.

“What, are you scared? You're nothing more than a dumb and useless woman trying to act all poise and composed!”
