Chapter: 628
As Korbyn presided over the entire award ceremony, it would be inappropriate for her to depart prematurely. Remaining in his presence would only further solidify the perception of an intimate connection between her and the Fowler family.
In short, there was many a good tune played on an old fiddle.
After the photography session concluded, Korbyn finally released his grip on Rena. However, he displayed an open smile and remarked, "To celebrate your success, I have prepared the finest tea. You must savor it with me later and feel free to take some home if you so desire.”
Rena comprehended the underlying message. Korbyn wished to have a conversation with her.
Refusing a business tycoon of such magnitude was out of the question; he held the power to effortlessly dismantle her music studio.
The conclusion of the award ceremony signaled the end of the festivities.
The CEO of the Fowler Group's secretary personally arrived to escort Rena.
This marked Rena's second visit to the office, a symbol of immense power.
During her previous visit, she had made a promise to Korbyn to go to Flirean to study music. Returning to this place now stirred up a whirlwind of emotions within her.
Korbyn graciously received her once again.
He displayed a newfound warmth.
He took a seat across from her and personally brewed tea for them.
After pouring her a cup, he cut straight to the chase.
“I understand that you've been wronged and suffered a lot. However, I will lay it all bare and speak frankly today. Couples quarrel and argue; it's only natural. Waylen made mistakes but he also regrets them. He had been down to the dumps lately. His mother and I worry about him but we are equally infuriated by his incompetence."
Rena remained silent, absorbing his words.
Korbyn pressed on, “It's entirely Waylen's fault."
He reached for a thick document on the tea table and gently pushed it toward Rena.
Rena raised her gaze.
A shrewd smile graced Korbyn's countenance as he uttered, "My secretary informed me that your music studio is thriving. Rena... I hold you in high regard. These documents encompass all the real estate assets of the Fowler family, estimated to be worth billions of dollars. My wife isn't interested in managing these affairs. I want you to take charge."
The prospect of managing billions of dollars in wealth was undeniably enticing.
The favorable conditions also signified a tremendous amount of trust.
For a shrewd businessman like Korbyn to entrust such a significant responsibility to someone was no small matter...
