My Secret Billionaire Husband-Chapter 2047 - 2041: Isn’t this TV series plot too much of a Mary Sue?

This voice...

She lowered her head to look at the stage below but saw Cody Aberton in a suit and well-polished shoes walking towards the stage.

The appearance of Cody Aberton startled everyone present.

The host on the stage also wore a surprised expression.

As for Rebecca Kelloway, who just had a smug look on her face and thought she had already won, her face turned unsightly the moment Cody Aberton appeared.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone in the venue, Cody Aberton slowly walked onto the stage.

"This gentleman, you..."

With a microphone in hand and wearing a bit of a bewildered expression, the host asked.

Who is this guy?

Where did he come from?

And how did he end up on stage?

"I am Cody Aberton, the special assistant to the President of the Heath Group." After introducing himself, Cody walked over to Joanna Lawrence.

Joanna Lawrence also had a confused look on her face.

Upon seeing Cody approach, she asked hesitantly, "Cody Aberton, why are you here?"

Joanna’s first reaction was to quickly search for Ashton Heath in the crowd below the stage again.

If Cody Aberton was here, did it mean that Ashton Heath was also here?

"Mr. Ashton asked me to come." Cody glanced at the crowd below the stage, then raised his head to look at Joanna Lawrence and said with a smile, "President Ashton said that the bracelet is a significant love token he gave to Ms. Joanna and should not be auctioned off."

"President Ashton is willing to donate 300 million dollars on behalf of Ms. Joanna to contribute to tonight’s Charity Gala."

"The specific amount has already been transferred to the Charity Gala’s donation account. The relevant personnel can verify it by checking the account."

Three hundred million dollars...

A single person’s donation of three hundred million...

As soon as Cody Aberton’s words fell, a wave of discussion erupted at the scene.

This should be the highest single-person donation in the many charity gala events held so far.

Rebecca Kelloway’s donation of more than 50 million dollars was already surprising enough to everyone before.

But now, there was another donation of 300 million dollars.

"Ms. Joanna, President Ashton originally planned to come personally. However, he had some urgent matters to attend to and couldn’t make it, so he asked me to come. President Ashton said that he would come to pick up Ms. Joanna after the Charity Gala, and not to forget their agreed-upon late-night snack together."

Joanna Lawrence: "..."

"Ms. Joanna, I’ll take my leave then."

After saying that, Cody Aberton turned and walked down the stage.

It wasn’t until he left that the host could recover from his bewilderment.

Below the stage.

Rebecca Kelloway’s face looked terrible.

She felt as if someone had slapped her hard several times in the face.

Moreover, those slaps were delivered in front of so many people.

She felt extremely humiliated and furious.

She even thought that Ashton Heath did it on purpose.

Purposefully making her look bad. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Originally, she was the center of attention in the Charity Gala, and she successfully got everyone’s attention.

But now, because of Cody Aberton’s appearance, because of the 300 million dollar donation, and because of Ashton Heath’s public protection and love for Joanna Lawrence, everyone’s focus switched to Joanna Lawrence.

Then what was the point of everything she had done before?

Was she just paving the way for Joanna Lawrence’s current glory?

The live streaming room.

Cody Aberton’s appearance has upset the internet viewers in the live streaming room.

"Am I watching an overbearing CEO romance novel? This plot is way too Mary Sue. Just as the Female Lead 1 seems like she’s going to lose face, the male lead sends his assistant to save the day, not only salvaging Female Lead 1’s honor but also fiercely slapping Female Lead 2 in the face?!"

"The drama tonight is too exciting!"
