Chapter 241: She’s a power player
With Jessica comfortably settled into her chair and Becky taking the seat beside her, Davis sighed in relief. His gaze had been on her since the moment she alighted from the car. Though he was worried about her health, seeing her dazzling amidst the crowd brought a glowing smile to his face that was difficult to hide.
Jessica pulled out her phone. Now that she was here, there were still other matters that needed to be handled. "Ethan, get someone to dig into the company launch planning of the Watts family scheduled for tomorrow," she texted furiously.
"Get the manager to add an exclusive program to the launch tomorrow and the gala tonight." She went into detail, giving him a brief of what the program should be and how it had to be organized.
Since Tricia wanted to stay low-key, Jessica didn’t mind playing at higher stakes. After all, the winner takes it all.
"Also, as the name has been unveiled, withhold the logo unveiling until later. I presume many people will want to cue in at the last minute. And note that once the logo is unveiled, no investors should be entertained."
Ethan, seated among the crowd, blinked in surprise as his phone buzzed nonstop. He hadn’t expected a stream of directives the moment she sat down. But the one message that stood out was about the Watts Group’s secretive launch.
"She came armed," he muttered, already rising to put things in motion. He exited his seat to arrange things accordingly.
Jessica stood, ready to mingle. As an investor and a guest, it was time to make her presence felt and to uncover fake identities that are here in prelude to the Watts family launch tomorrow.
Instantly, several young CEOs flocked to her, each eager to introduce themselves, business cards in hand, smiles polished and ambitious.
