Chapter 232
Tania’s face darkened. “A divorce is the same as a breakup for young people nowadays. I don’t care about all that. All I care about is that my son likes whoever he has chosen to be with
“How can they be the same? It would be Josie’s second marriage now that she’s divorced, and we all know that a divorcee isn’t as valuable as those with a clean slate. Samuel is going to lose out if he marries her since this will be his first marriage.” Lorelai said to Tania in a provoking tone.
“Besides, Josie’s private life is too messy. She started hooking up left and right even before she was divorced! It would be awful if people started to think Samuel is a homewrecker”
Tania for so many
t down the coffee cup in her hand. She was already fuming with anger, but she had known Lore years, so she had to make sure she didn’t offend the other party with her words.
“You do know that my daughter just got divorced too, right?” asked Tania coolly.
Lorelai was struck dumb for a moment. “As if Josie can even be compared to Nina! Wherever Nina goes, men will be lining up for her. She’s just that great!” she said anxiously.
Lorelai didn’t expect the conversation to take a turn like this. Everyone knew Tania was fiercely protective of her own daughter, Nina.
“I trust Samuel’s taste in women. Besides, he’s a grown man who can think for himself now. Jo became Henry’s ex-wife because Henry didn’t cherish her. My son cherishes her, so that makes her part of our family,” said Tania in a deep voice. “Also, Jo can’t be that bad if she managed to capture the young and handsome Henry’s heart before.”
Lorelai was struck speechless by Tania’s words.
“I just think it’s a pity that Samuel plans to marry a divorcee,” said Lorelai with a sigh.
“And the purpose of your visit here today is?” asked Tania. She was hoping to send Lorelai on her way. The Turner family already regarded Josie as one of them, so it was natural Tania would stick up for her should anyone try to bad-mouth her.
“Oops, guess I got a little side-tracked. My daughter, Tilda, just graduated from university. She majored in Media and Performance and plans to enter the entertainment industry. I was wondering if you could ask Samuel to smooth the path for her Lorelai showed a photo of Tilda to Tania.
“She always followed you around when she was little. Compared to two years ago, she has grown another one inch taller.”
Tania glanced at the photo and smiled. Turner Corporation doesn’t deal in the media industry. Tilda’s qualifications look good, so I’m sure her road to stardom will be smooth. Samuel is back to working for his father, so…..
“Tania, don’t you know? Didn’t Samuel tell you? Clusia Media Group, the bellwether of the entertainment industry, was founded by him,” said Lorelai with a smile. Her expression was one of confidence in Tania’s influence over Samuel.
Tania was stunned. She looked at Lorelat in astonishment. “You must be joking. My son was overseas for the not Hofcaster. He’s just gotten back, so how is it possible…
past
three year
years.
All of you underestimated Samuel He and Yuri founded Clusia Media Group together. He’s really capable for him to be able to grow the company to this extent in only three years
It look Tania soune me to digest the information, but ultimately, she still found it hard to believe. In her eyes, Samuel was nothing but a spoiled child, so how was it possible for him to have done all that?
I dont know much about the matter, but I’ll ask him when he comes back. You know how it is with grown Lids. There are so many things they dart tell us so how could I know Tana smdat awkwardly.

“Yes, do ask Samuel about it, I’m sure Tilda will be accepted into Clusia Media Group anyway if she goes through the usual recruitment process. I was just hoping that, with the kind of relationship our family has, it’s not too much to ask for a bit of help,” said Lorelai cryptically.
“We still have a long way to go, thought Lorelai to herself.
“How did you know that Samuel was the owner of Clusia Media Group?” asked Tania tentatively.
“Clusia Media Group is collaborating with Genesis Corporation. don’t know the specifics, but there was a meeting between the two companies’ controlling shareholders. The people in Genesis Corporation were surprised to see Samuel too. All of this is confidential information and everything is still in the works, so they can’t make a public announcement yet,”
“And because Samuel promised the other party that he wouldn’t use any of the Turner family’s power or connections.” thought Lorelai.
“Genesis Corporation… Is that the one owned by the Langford family from Sloummont?” Tania had heard about this venture capital company before. The owner was 32 years old and a talented man with a unique vision. All the companies he had invested in were having their spotlight moment.
“Tania, you mustn’t tell anyone about this. I’m the head of Genesis Corporation’s legal department, and if people found out I was the one who leaked the news…” Lorelai asked Tania to keep it a secret.
It was a given that Tania would not spread the information since it was critically linked to Samuel’s benefits. Instead, she was worried that Lorelai wouldn’t be able to keep her own big mouth shut.
Moreover, Tania could tell that Lorelai came today with the intention of using the information to pressure her to help. Matilda get into Clusia Media Group.
“Lorelai wouldn’t have needed to personally come here to ask for help if her daughter really was that capable,” thought Tania. She was a little unhappy about all this.
“How about this? If you’re free tonight, why not ask Samuel to come back? As Tilda has gone back to Hofcaster, I’ll ask her to come as well. We’ll all have dinner together to let the two kids get to know each other,” said Lorelai without consulting Tania, as if she was the host instead of the guest in the house.
Tania couldn’t directly refuse the request, no matter how unhappy she was.
“Samuel is very busy and might not be able to make it. Let me call and ask.”
“That’s fine. Let Tilda come and visit you, even if he can’t make . She misses you very much,” said Lorelai with superficial charm
Tania didn’t know what else she could do to shake Lorelai off. No matter how fake she found Lorelai to be, she still treasured having her as an old friend, not to mention an old classmate.
Tania got up and pretended to make a phone call, but in fact, she didn’t tell Samuel about the dinner at all.
“He’d better not come back, she thought
Yuri went to Clusia Media Group.
Jo your boyfriend is here to pick you up,” said Madelyn jealously
“Where’s your boyfriend asked Josie with a squint of her eyes.
Madelyn motted and said ‘Beats the Recently, a secretary with gorgeous smile has come under his radar, so everything’s
“Wow your tal jealous, huh?” joked josie at Martelyn

Chapter 232
“As if you won’t be jealous if some other woman made a play on Samuel” Even the thought of it made Madelyn angry
But it wasn’t-like she could say anything, as Yuri was just doing his job and the other woman was just a secretary.
“Of course, I’ll get jealous, but what can I do? Samuel is an excellent guy. It’s not like I can ask him to uglify himself with plastic surgery, right?” Josie secretly smiled to herself at the thought of that,
Madelyn sighed again. “The two of them are just too da*n attractive.”
At the entrance, Josie saw Samuel and Y
leaning against the car door, talking
Both of them were enchantingly gorgeous. It would be easy for other people to mistake them for a couple of relebrities who were in the midst of taking street shots.
“Even if the two of them wore sacks out, people would just think it’s the newest trend, thought Josie helplessly.
“See that? It’s only been a minute, and some girl is already throwing herself at them.” Madelyn stamped her feet angrily.
“Well, why don’t you find an ugly boyfriend? I’m sure you wouldn’t have to worry then. Josie poked Madelyn. “Are you willing to do that?”
Madelyn gave a simpering smile. “Of course not!”
“Good. Now that’s solved, it’s time for you to bravely chase that girl away,” said Josie in a comforting manner.
Madelyn narrowed her eyes at Josie. “Jo, you’ve changed…”
Josie was stunned. “Have I?”
“Yeah, you’re more of a bad girl now! And you laugh more now. Heck, you’ve even started making fun of others. Samuel must have been the one who taught you how to unleash that poisonous tongue of yours!” Madelyn rushed over to where Samuel was to give him a piece of her mind.
“Samuel, you’re a bad influence on Jo!”
Only then did Samuel realize Josie was already off work.
Jo, why don’t I take you back to my place for dinner tonight? It’ll be a nice surprise for my mom,” said Samuel to Josie. He completely ignored Madelyn, as if she was totally invisible.
Madelyn stood where she was and started to question whether she really was invisible.
