Shadows of Destiny: A Tale of Liberation

Chapter 911

Jovan coughed lightly from another corner of the balcony, and walked over with a fake smile on his face. He was

wearing a tidy suit and a pair of frameless glasses, and was the epitome of a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

“Honey, you’ve got what you wanted. It’s time to get ready for the main show!” The man reminded Renee with a

smirk as he tapped his expensive wristwatch.

“Yes, it’s time for the show.” Renee took a deep breath and beamed radiantly at Jovan, no trace of her

disappointment from earlier. She patted Stefan on the shoulder, and said briefly, “Take care, Mr. Hunt.”

She linked arms with Jovan, and they headed into the banquet hall.

Stefan was speechless for a while, but the shock was soon replaced with amusement, and a soft smile appeared on

his face. He thought to himself, ‘Yes, this is how Renee Everheart is supposed to live. I don’t care if she wants

revenge, or anything else… I just don’t want her to be sad because of me.’

Renee and Jovan attracted a lot of attention the minute they appeared in the hall, but it was mostly just disdainful

stares. After all, Jovan was known as the right-hand man who failed in betraying his own family, whereas Renee was

known as a useless, abandoned woman whose family had fallen from grace.

To many, it was unthinkable that they would willingly attend an event like this given their reputations.

Meanwhile, Seraphina soon noticed that she was no longer in the limelight. Everyone was looking somewhere else,

which made her quite upset. She followed everyone’s gaze to the spiral staircase, only to find Renee and Jovan

under the spotlight.

Seraphina sneered as she approached Renee and said mockingly, “Miss Everheart, are you attending this summit

as Mr. Hunt’s plus one? You might not know this, but only people with significant contributions to the industry were

invited to attend. Thus, Mr. Hunt is not qualified to be here, and neither are you.”

“Oh, there were requirements? Sorry, but I had no idea!” Jovan grinned cheekily and replied, “Sorry to burst your

bubble, but this lovely lady isn’t my plus one – I’m hers! You might not know this, but my sweetheart here is the

president of the Electronics Technology Association. I just came here to broaden my horizons, you know?”

Hearing this, some of the people in the crowd immediately became enraged.

“How dare you even mention that?! Have you no shame? All of us voted for this woman as president because we

trusted her, but she decided to just up and leave her post! Don’t you know how we were mocked because we had

no leader?!”

“Who even made the attendance list? Allowing them to attend is an insult to our industry… Security! Kick these two

out right now!”

“I was wrong back then, and I sincerely apologize to everyone for it,” Renee said solemnly as she bowed deeply.

She knew that her sudden departure had brought harm to the association, so she had long expected that she would

be the main target for their resentment.

“However, I actually came here with a very important goal in mind. It was also the current president, Mr. Frederick

Yarrow, who personally invited me to this summit. So, my plus one and I are more than qualified to participate,” she

continued with a confident smile.

“Frederick Yarrow personally invited you? How is that possible?!” Shocked, everyone immediately turned to their

current president.
