Remarried Wife: She will Remarry, But Another Person-Chapter 172: Ninth Master Is Coming Too

Not far away, Brooke saw this scene, almost driven mad with jealousy, gritting her teeth and glaring fiercely at Sabrina.

In her expectation, today’s event, with the spotlight shining, should have belonged to her.

But now, all the attention was captured by Sabrina!

Brooke clenched her fingers tightly, instinctively glancing at Jordan beside her.

At this moment, Jordan’s gaze was also complex, yet amazed by this version of Sabrina.

Today’s Sabrina was vastly different from the one he had seen in the past.

In such a setting, she showed not a hint of timidity but was confident and composed, facing a crowd of business figures with calm and competence.

Unlike before at The Hawthorne Family, only revolving around mundane domestic matters.

Now, she exuded an extraordinary charm, so dazzling that it was almost impossible to look away.

Brooke noticed his change in expression, feeling suddenly very sour, she immediately tugged at his sleeve, reminding him, "Jordan, let’s sit down too."

"Hmm."

Only then did Jordan snap out of it, and said to Brooke, "Seats are fixed, so I can only arrange you at the last row, let’s part here, I’ll head to the front first."

Upon hearing this, Brooke almost lost control.

She could only sit in a corner here?!

But in front of Jordan, she dared not express any dissatisfaction, still pretending to be well-behaved and replied, "Okay, you go ahead."

She waved to Jordan, and only after watching him leave, did she secretly clench her teeth.

She was not someone to resign easily!

Once today’s conference is over, she must network thoroughly with the bigwigs present.

She must prove that she is definitely not inferior to Sabrina!

Not far away, Jordan had now reached the first row.

Although the previous scandal involved Hawthorne Group, they remained the richest family in Veridia, so at the summit, they wouldn’t neglect him, and the ranking of seats would still be given.

Jordan’s seat was close to the center.

However, Sabrina sat on the left, he sat on the right, with several seats between them.

As he arrived, quite a number of people noticed him, as there were many who still wanted to collaborate with Hawthorne Group, and they greeted him one after another.

Those flattering voices, of course, Sabrina heard them too.

She followed the direction of the voices and met Jordan’s gaze directly.

Her eyes contained no emotion, as if she was seeing a total stranger.

With just one glance, she coldly withdrew her gaze.

Jordan felt displeased at her indifference.

How could Sabrina have treated him like this before?

But ultimately, he said nothing and soon took his seat.

However, after he sat down, the people beside him started to look at him with slightly strange expressions.

Some even began whispering softly.

"I heard some rumors about President Hawthorne and President Hayes, not sure if they’re true..."

"I heard too, supposedly President Hawthorne sacrificed President Hayes for a mistress."

"Tsk, such means by the mistress, and President Hawthorne must have been blind."

"Exactly, if I were him, how could I bear to let a wife like President Hayes suffer?"

Jordan’s hearing was sharp, even though they spoke quietly, he still caught some of it.

It felt like he was being laughed at, a shadow suddenly cast over his eyes.

"Alright, alright, everyone, stop gathering here."

Poppy timely spoke, addressing the people around, "The summit is about to begin, whatever needs discussing, let’s do it after, for now, let’s return to our seats."

Poppy’s influence was considerable, everyone agreed and dispersed.

Once people left, Sabrina finally managed to take a breath of relief.

Then Josee queried curiously, "The central position, who’s it reserved for?"

Poppy laughed, "Aethel — Elysian Group."

Upon hearing this company, Sabrina felt a sudden jolt in her heart.

The name... sounded so familiar.

If she hadn’t remembered wrong, this was Mr. Fitzgerald’s company???

The rumors she heard in Aethel were still fresh in her ears.

So today, is Mr. Fitzgerald attending too?

She didn’t know why, but suddenly felt a bit of anticipation.

Along with some wonder and curiosity, "To my knowledge, Elysian Group seems to be in the military industry, haven’t they ventured into artificial intelligence too?"

Poppy apparently knew a lot more, she smiled and informed her, "Elysian Group was one of the first in the country to get involved in the AI field, their leader not only possesses a unique vision but is exceptionally capable.

Early on, personally led the team, developing numerous intelligent systems, even higher technology..."

She lowered her voice, "A secret between us, many military products currently originate from Elysian Group, including artificial intelligence, drones, some anti-terrorist reconnaissance, detection equipment, and much more confidential ones.

But the specifics, I’m not very clear on, it’s confidential internal information, we can’t delve too much into it."

"So, that’s it."

Sabrina nodded, understanding Poppy’s implication, her heart was filled with shock beyond measures.

Though she long knew Elysian Group was impressive.

She had never imagined that reality would be more astounding than the rumors...

Mr. Fitzgerald, it turns out, was indeed far more than just a psychologist!

The more she understood, the more she felt that he truly stood on the clouds, unreachable.

As they chatted, there were quite a few people discussing the central position at the venue.

"I heard that position is reserved for the Elysian Group from Aethel."

"Elysian Group, are they actually coming?"

"Of course, in terms of technological development domestically, whose technology can compare to Elysian Group’s?"

"In that case, will we have the fortune of seeing the Ninth Master today?"

The executives who had been calm and composed earlier all became visibly excited when discussing Elysian Group.

"In Aethel, this big shot is like a mysterious dragon, rarely appearing in public. Even when he does, it’s in high-spec events; ordinary people seldom get to see him."

"Right, I wonder if we’ll have the honor of making his acquaintance today..."

Sabrina was also curious whether Mr. Fitzgerald would come today.

Amid the discussions, the summit finally began.

The lights dimmed according to protocol, beginning with a speech from the hosts.

The host represented an official entity, naturally possessing an uncommon status and carrying significant weight in their words.

"First of all, I want to thank everyone for taking the time out of your busy schedules to participate in this summit. We are grateful for your presence here.

Those in attendance today are all reputable and capable enterprises..."

The representative on stage spoke with an official tone, and after delivering a round of thanks, finally got to the main point.

"I believe everyone is curious about the purpose and plans of this summit.

Thus, I won’t beat around the bush and honestly inform you that through this meeting, we aim to assess the forefront of technology and bring enterprises with great potential into official cooperation..."

The audience, who had been getting drowsy, suddenly became alert upon hearing this news.

The venue was abuzz.

Prior to coming, everyone thought it was just a simple award ceremony, not expecting a deeper agenda.

Everyone was quite shocked, including Sabrina, who found it surprising as well.

However, upon reconsideration, it was understandable.

The current era places a significant emphasis on technological development.

No country has too much high technology, as they are constantly seeking breakthroughs.

Of course, Sabrina was not overwhelmed by this good news.

Even though she was interested, there would certainly be standard assessments.

Not just any company could seize this opportunity.

On the side, Poppy also realized this.

She leaned over with a smile, saying to Sabrina, "Others might have uncertainties, but your chances are definitely high. Congrats in advance!"

Sabrina modestly smiled and said, "Your congratulations are too soon; if it turns out it’s not us, wouldn’t that be awkward?"

Poppy shook her head and said, "Don’t underestimate yourself. I say this based on evidence."

She analyzed with Sabrina, "This year, your system is the most advanced in all tech development. From what I know, no one has surpassed it yet.

If you’re not selected this time, I truly don’t know who else could be."

Josee Sheffield wasn’t as modest as Sabrina.

He lifted his chin and told both of them, "I also think we can do it. I trust your ability!"

Hearing this, Sabrina found it amusing and said, "Why even you?"

Though both felt confident, Sabrina herself wasn’t so sure.

And unbeknownst to her, while they were talking, not far away, Jordan Hawthorne was also looking their way. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

His brows slightly furrowed, as if realizing this point as well.

In the entire venue, Sabrina being selected seemed inevitable.

After all, the system she developed was truly cutting-edge.

Realizing this, Jordan felt a mixed emotion within.

Clearly, this honor should have belonged to the Hawthorne Group.

Yet that woman, during her time at the Hawthorne Group, chose to hide it rather than reveal it.

Had she been planning for this day all along?

Thinking of this possibility, a surge of anger rose within Jordan.

It seems Sabrina was never fully committed to their marriage.

Her claims of love were nothing but lies!

Now divorced, she could finally stop pretending!

Sitting behind them, Brooke was clenching her palms so hard they almost bled!

This is impossible!

Why did they announce this at this exact moment?

This way, that bitch Sabrina would successfully gain access to higher levels!

If she were to successfully collaborate with the official sector, she would leap to another tier. How is she even qualified???

This honor should have been hers!!!

As she gritted her teeth with envy, the official spokesperson had already moved to the next agenda.

He continued speaking, "Next, we will present awards to outstanding companies and individuals in research and development in the country this year.

First, let’s welcome our first distinguished guest, President Hayes of N.Z. Tech Corporation, along with her partner, President Sheffield..."

As the voice fell, a thunderous applause erupted throughout the venue.
