As one of the top conglomerates in the country, Central Group’s public relations team was made up of
the elite within the industry. In spite of that, they still failed to stem the avalanche of controversies
related to the company.
Consequently, many netizens speculated that there was someone powerful out to get Central

Kcalizing that something was amiss, Landon, Central Group’s biggest sharcholder, sold off his holdings
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtin the company’s stock and withdrew billions from the company.
On the sixth day, a man who claimed to be a former employee of Central Group was standing at the
edge of the rooftop at Central Group Tower.
He complained to a bunch of reporters that he had cancer, but Central Group had refused to pay
for his medical fees. After losing a couple of lawsuits he initiated, he ended up missing the best window
for treatment.
Once the man finished his story, he jumped off the building without a second thought.
News of the suicide added to Central Group’s already long list of scandals. Even the police quickly
sought out Armand and brought him back to the station for questioning.
When Genevieve learned of the developments, a grim expression descended upon her face.
It was common for any conglomerate to have black sheep; it was just that their conduct was usually
covered up and not revealed to the public,
Nevertheless, she didn’t expect Central Group to be flooded with so many scandals, to the extent the
public relations department was lielpless to stop them. It was so bad that there was even a loss of life,
“What are you looking at?” Jack sat down beside Genevieve and wrapped his arm around her want.
When he casually glanced at the screen, he caught a glimpse of the news related to Central Group,
causing him to shuttliis ze toward Genevieve. “Genev. do you still care about Armand?
“No,” She shook her head as she no longer had any feelings for him. “It’s just that at the rate this is
going. Central Group is finished.”
After a brief pause, she asked Jack, “Didn’t you say that Sylvie was an orphan?”
Hiddlink with lice liair, Jack replied languidly, “Whicul intcrvicwed licr for my new movie four vcars ago, it
was stated in lice lile that she was an orphan.llowever, I don’t know her well and don’t care if she’s an
orphan on the daughter of someone rich.”
His words caused Genericve to fall into cep thought
Before Sylvic Ieft the other way, she had mentioned thc Zcigler family of Baykcep. Flowever. despite all
her clots, Genevieve couldn’t find any information about that farnily.
Coincidentally, someone was discussing Sylvic’s buy-out of her contract from Genevieve Orsi
Productions in an online forum,
After going through the comments, she stumbled upon a netizen’s revelation that Sylvie was a
granddaughter of the Zeigler family from Baykeep. That same nctizen even provided an in depth
overview of the Zeigler family.
General Herbert Zeigler distinguished himself during the war and was subsequently appointed as the
commander of Baykeep. As a result, his influence in the army couldn’t be overlooked. As for his wife,
she was a diplomat who was proficient in thirteen languages. Even though she had given birth to three
sons and a daughter, she died of a disease when she was young.
As for Herbert’s three sons, the eldest was now the commander of Baykeep, the second was a party
secretary, and the third worked for the nation’s Aviation Authority.
Evidently, all three of them brought glory to the family.
With regard to his daughter, she had been kidnapped at a young age, and Sylvie was the child born of

As a result, Sylvie naturally became Herbert’s favorite.
After reading the analysis, Genevieve understood why Sylvie was suddenly behaving so audaciously. It
turned out that she had a tremendously powerful family backing her.
With that thought in mind, Genevieve was certain that Herbert was the one behind Central Group’s
woes.
Regardless of how exceptional a capitalist was, he wouldn’t have the courage to offend anyone in the
military or political establishment, let alone someone as powerful as Herbert. For Herbert to deal with a
businessman’s empire was as easy as squashing an ant.
Jack snatched Genevieve’s phone away. “Even if Central Group goes bust, that’s Armand’s problem,
not yours. Genev, isn’t your time belter spent on me?”
Genevieve froze awkwardly, sull not used to intimacy with Jack.
“I’m worried that I’ll be Sylvie’s next target.”

Jack sniggered at the comment as he place his head on hier shoulder. “Unless she has a death wish,
she won’t dare touch you because you’re minc.”
Everything Sylvic was enjoying now was bestowed by him, and it would be all too easy for him to take
them away.
“Let’s return to Dartan the day after next, as I need to deal witli somcthing. You can visit the children
too. How about that?” Jack threaded his fingers in between Genevicvc’s and clasped them tightly
He added, “With the Zeigler family behind Sylvie now, you won’t be able to touch her if you’re looking to
seek revenge on Johanna’s lychalc.”
Grunting in acknowledgment, Genevieve gave the phone on the table a dejected stare.
