Chapter 4

After my unremitting efforts, the Morgan Group had grown from a second-rate company to the top high-tech enterprise in Manchester.

It was precisely because of this that the Morgan Family, who looked down on me at the beginning, took the initiative to invite my mother and me to the Morgan Mansion to celebrate the New Year and discuss the marriage.

The press conference was very grand and lively. Just as I was about to go on stage to give a speech, Lucia suddenly appeared. She was dressed in a gorgeous dress and was so beautiful that it was intoxicating. But her expression was very intriguing.

She did not explain the reason for not returning for a few days, but stopped me, "Gerald, wait a minute. The company has arranged another person for this speech."

I was stunned. I had always been the general manager of the new product project.

In the entire company, only I was qualified to give a speech. Because no one was more familiar with new products than me. From design to R&D, I took care of everything and put in countless efforts and energy. You could say it was like my child.

At this moment, John's voice sounded on the stage.

"Happy New Year, distinguished guests. On behalf of Morgan Group, I welcome all of you here. Let me introduce to you the features of the new products released this time..."

Seeing him in high spirits and successful, I understood everything.

Looking at Lucia coldly, "Since it has been arranged, why do you still need to notify me to attend the press conference?"

Lucia explained, "As the general manager of the new product project, you naturally have to be there."

She continued, "Gerald, the choice of speaker this time is the company's decision and it is also my idea. After all, you are already a giant in the industry and don't need these flashy reputations. But John is different. As a newcomer, he needs more qualifications than you..."

I quietly watched her talk endlessly. The more I looked at her, the more unfamiliar she felt.

Lucia used to love me deeply and only had eyes for me. But since John came back from abroad and joined Morgan Group as the president's assistant, she changed. She often went on business trips for no reason and stayed out all night.

John spent much more time with her than I did. I was busy with the project at the time and didn't think much about it.

But my knowledgeable mother saw it and she reminded me, "Gerald, Lucia is your girlfriend, but now she is going out with other men every day, isn't it not good?"

I didn't wake up, but explained for the two of them, "Mom, you think too much, John is Lucia's assistant, it's normal to work together every day."

"Lucia told me that John and her grew up together and always regarded her as a sister. The three of us are college classmates. If they were interested in each other, they would have been together a long time ago. What can I do?"

Now looking back at it, I was really a pure fool.

Seeing that I had been silent, Lucia thought I had figured it out and smiled, "Gerald, tomorrow is our engagement day, are you ready?"

I nodded woodenly.

"Your mom must be very happy and looking forward to it, right?" Lucia frowned slightly, "But it's strange, I called her these few days and her phone has been turned off. Is there something wrong with her phone?"

Suddenly, there was warm applause from the audience.

It turned out that the speech was over. John not only introduced the features of the new product, but also brought in his own goods, allowing himself to completely replace my role as a developer.

I sneered in my heart and did not expose it in public. But many old employees in the company showed indignation.
