How My Ex Became My Next

Jensen struggled to contain his emotions, maintaining a seemingly calm and indifferent demeanor,

He shifted the conversation, “This dress is quite nice…”

Sensing something special in Jensen’s interest in the dress, Gilda asked, “Mr. Harrington, are you also interested in this

dress?”

Jensen did not elaborate much, simply stating, “Everyone likes good stuff. That’s all.”

Gilda sensed an underlying meaning in his words but didn’t ponder it further. “Then, thank you, Mr. Harrington, for letting me have it.”

With that, Gilda was ready to leave,

Jensen said nothing more and watched her walk away.

Unexpectedly, Erika, standing not far away, approached. “Mr. Harrington, could you lend me 600 thousand dollars?”

Jensen turned to look at her expectant face.

A hint of sarcasm flashed through Jensen’s eyes.

Finally, he said, “I have never had the habit of lending money to others.”

Hearing his decisive refusal, Erika looked very embarrassed. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Now she couldn’t fork out 2 million dollars in her card.

At last, she was manhandled out by the security guard.

Leaving the auction venue, Jensen was overwhelmed with emotions. Sitting in the driver’s seat, he chain–smoked, filling the car with smoke with cigarette butts scattered everywhere.

Finally, he couldn’t resist calling Lanny. “Check for me all the projects Gilda has been handling at Glory Corporation recently. I want to know what she’s busy with.”

Lanny quickly complied without further questions. “Yes, Mr. Harrington.”

Jensen went on, “I want the result in an hour.”

Jensen then hung up the phone and drove away/

Within an hour, Lanny sent Jensen all the information about Gilda’s recent projects.

Jensen browsed through them.

They were mostly routine projects, some involving cooperation with Frencia.

His attention suddenly paused at the mention of Dillan, who seemed to be thriving at Glory Corporation, handling several major projects.

“Mr. Harrington, it seems Ms. Lynch isn’t involved in any of Glory Corporation’s projects recently, Lanny added.

Jensen raised her eyebrows and asked, “So what’s she up to these days?”

“She’s taken over the fashion show in Allath from Professor Olson She’s the main designer.”

Jensen stopped abruptly.

Then he thought of something and asked, “The fashion show in Allath?”

It made sense why Gilda was so keen on getting that dress. It was likely for the fashion show.

“I recall the organizers wanted to rent a venue from Harrington Corporation, he recalled.

“Yes, Mr. Harrington, but you were planning to refuse, weren’t you?”

Jensen, without raising his head, said, “Don’t refuse. Give them the venue as a sponsorship.”

That left Lanny jaw–dropped.

Renting a venue from Harrington Corporation usually cost a lot of money a day. Yet, Jensen was sponsoring it for Gilda.

“Understood, Mr. Harrington. I’ll make the arrangements,” Lanny replied.

As the main designer of the fashion show, Gilda poured all her attention into the designs, personally overseeing every deta

So she was unaware that the venue was provided by Harrington Corporation.
