Pamela was elated. “That’s wonderful! Thank you, Mr. Donnel!”
“Come on, why are you still calling me that?” Kurt pretended to be upset.
Blushing, Pamela corrected herself. ” Kurt…”
“Now that’s more like it.” Kurt was immediately overjoyed as his scheme worked.
Meanwhile, in the banquet hall, Clement respectfully walked beside Woody and said, “Ms. Helen will be here to greet you right away!”
“It’s alright. You should get back to work too.” Woody didn’t like being followed, so he headed inside on his own.
Of course, Clement didn’t dare object to that. He hastily went to look for Helen. In the office upstairs, Helen’s secretary, Jessie Baxter, was reporting to her. “Ms. Helen, Pamela York from York Corporation is here.”
“What?” Helen whipped her head around and reprimanded, “Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Trembling, Jessie hastily explained, “I only heard about it just now. When Mr. Cartwright was around, he always treated York Corporation well. That’s why I hurried here to inform you.”
In reality, even the higher-ups in the Cartwright family had no idea why Mason did this. York Corporation was just a minor company. It was nothing compared to an industry giant like the Cartwrights.
The only thing the York family could be proud of was their beautiful president. Other than that, they had nothing.
Many people thought that Mason had fallen for her, and that was why he treated her so well. But even after three years, there weren’t any scandals about them. In reality, Mason and Pamela had never even met.
No one else knew this, but Helen was very aware that the beautiful president was the wife of the Majestic Ruler, who was known to be a miracle doctor. However, she had no idea that had gotten divorced.
“What type of invitation does Pamela have?” Helen asked.
Jessie answered, “The normal kind. She got it through the Donnels.”
Helen was anxious. “That won’t do! Change it right now, and seat her next to Mr. Henderson.”
The Cartwrights were deeply indebted to Woody, who had saved Mason’s life twice. In fact, the charity event today was held for him.
It would be a joke to separate Woody from his wife and to sit him in the VIP area up front while she sat in the common area. People would mock the Cartwrights for mistreating their guests.
Jessie was a little troubled. “But according to the original plan, the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce should be seated next to Mr. Henderson
“Seat him somewhere else then. Would he even dare to complain about it?” Helen said decisively, making full use of her authority.
Jessie hastily nodded. “Alright, I’ll ask to have it arranged right now… Never mind, I’ll go there in person. Pamela has already arrived at the entrance.”
Meanwhile, at the entrance, Pamela and the others were lining up. Kurt’s phone suddenly rang. He said happily, ” It’s from my dad. He must have done it.
Then, he answered the call. “Hi-”
“Kurt, I’m afraid I can’t help you with that. It’s difficult either way. You know that Helen is the head now, and I don’t have much to do with her, so I can’t just talk to her. I’m busy, so I’ll hang up now.”
Before Kurt could say anything, the call ended.
“So what happened, Kurt?” Pamela had an expectant look in her eyes.
Kurt froze. Then, he tried to compose himself as he said, “N-Nothing. Anyway-”
“Ms. York, please forgive us for our oversight. You don’t have to line up here. Come in with me!” Jessie suddenly appeared, cutting Kurt off.
“Who are you?” Pamela asked.
Jessie said, “I’m the secretary of Cartwright Group’s president. Ms. Cartwright asked me to escort you personally.”
