Chapter 4 Being Aggressive
Chapter 4 Being Aggressive
No matter what kind of man and what happened last night, since the night had passed, it would never happen again. Armani was still the arrogant and cold Miss Armani of XU Group.
After taking a shower, Armani lay on the bed in a night robe and turned on her computer to deal with business.
The phone rang again.
She looked at the caller ID with disdain. It was from Ben. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Although speaking of this man now was full of disgust, she wanted to hear what else Ben had to say, so she swiped the screen with her slender fingers and clicked a record.
"Honey, you finally answered my phone. Let's have a talk, okay?" Ben's voice came from the other end of the line.
Armani used to like to listen to him very much. When the two of them ran for their own business and couldn't meet each other in all directions, they only used a mobile phone to contact.
Ben was always so humorous when he spoke on the phone that Armani could be happy whenever she was unhappy. When she was confused about something, Ben would also tell her what to do.
But now, the voice was no longer so pleasant to hear. It was only a hypocritical word of a sophist.
"We have nothing to talk about." Armani said flatly.
Ben not only cheated on her, but also attacked her in public opinion, saying that she was a mistress and ruined his relationship with Jessie.
How ridiculous! It was Ben who proposed to Armani, promised to take care of her in front of her father, and loved her all his life. In the end, he had to give up the love in his heart.
"Armani, I know it's my fault. But no matter what happens, you are the only one I love most. I and Jessie were just accidents. I can compensate her. I will give her whatever she wants. But please don't leave me, okay?" Ben said in a tired voice.
In the face of his plea, Armani could not say that she was completely indifferent. After all, she had really loved him before. But after seeing his betrayal, the pain was only for a moment.
People couldn't be tied up by a relationship. After all, the reality was not in an idol play, and love was not the only theme.
So Armani just rubbed the phone in her hand and said lightly, "Ben, we're over. If you're still a man, don't try to escape from the problem. Be responsible for what you've done."
No matter what Ben's purpose was, he should take his responsibility since he had done something with Jessie. Besides, although Jessie had the same father but different mother with Armani, she was still a member of Armani's family and had not been treated so harshly. If Ben was not responsible for Jessie, her reputation would be ruined in the future.
Besides, Armani would never want a man who had betrayed her. She did not allow impurities in her love.
She hung up the phone and stared at the screen for a while.
It was May now. Armani had planned to spend the May 20th with Ben, but it seemed unnecessary.
A message appeared on her computer. It was from her assistant, Mary.
"Armani, you are getting more and more powerful now. There are publicity on the portal of QM City, and the words you said to the reporters at the airport yesterday have been recorded. Now everyone is saying that your prestige is not less outstanding than your father's." Mary happily typed the message and attached the website.
Armani just skimmed through it. In fact, as an entrepreneur, it was not appropriate to be so arrogant in front of the media. But after she heard the news, she was inevitably angry and said mean words.
However, the onlookers paid more attention to her own excellence. They accepted all her arrogance, and even many books were written based on a beautiful CEO like her.
"I think with the help of the media, it's appropriate for you to come back specially and officially be the CEO of XU Group next week." Said Mary.
Armani was not so optimistic. The public opinion was good, but it was too unstable. The public opinion that could support her in the cloud could also shoot her into the abyss, and she would be doomed eternally.
There was a knock on the door. She immediately closed the computer and said, "Come in."
Jessie poked her head out of the door and said with a sweet smile, "Sister, we haven't gone shopping together for a long time. Let's go shopping together today. I saw new products in several shopping malls."
Looking at her sweet sister, Armani used to love her and take her to buy something and prepare her birthday party. After all, she was related to her.
But she didn't expect that when she was abroad, Jessie would hook up with Ben. She didn't know if Jessie had thought that she had an elder sister who was engaged to the man in front of her.
Now why did Jessie want to go shopping with Armani? Armani was not stupid. Needless to say, she knew she was so contemptuous in front of the reporters that the public opinion favored her. Jessie couldn't help but want her to appear in front of the media to show their sisterhood to those people, so that this matter could be over.
"I'm busy." Said Armani flatly.
Jessie narrowed her beautiful eyes and looked at Armani with dissatisfaction. "Sister, I know I was wrong, but I really love Ben. Don't you love me the most? Why don't you want us to be together? "
As Jessie spoke, her eyes turned red. She sat on the edge of Armani's bed and wiped her tears. "When our father died, you promised me in front of him that you would take good care of me. No matter what, I'm your younger sister. You have so many pursuers. Ben doesn't like you, but why do you always hold on to him and refuse to fulfill my wish? "
"What's going on?" Armani's stepmother, Edith, stood at the door and asked, pretending to be surprised.
Armani didn't say anything, but looked at Jessie coldly.
Jessie was very grievance to say to Edith, "Mom, I know it's my fault, but no matter how hard I beg my sister, she won't forgive me. She really doesn't love me. Mom, I think I'd better leave this family. I'm sorry, sister. I don't deserve to be a member of our family."
As soon as Jessie finished her words, she was about to run out of the room. Edith held Armani's hand and looked at her with red eyes, saying, "Armani, ask yourself how I have treated your family after I married your father these years. When your father died, he gave you most of his shares. I and Jessie don't have as many shares as you. Have we fought for anything? Because we are a family, we treat you as a family. But do you really treat us as family? How dare you force your sister like this? "
