GoodNovelChapter 272:
Jayden turned his gaze away from Eva, seemingly ignoring her. Unbeknownst to him, Eva saw this as an
opportunity. Having faced numerous trials at Bayzee Group, she was determined to make a good impression in
her new role with Jayden.
“Mr. Owen, what coffee would you like for the meeting later? I'll prepare it for you,” she offered, intentionally
exposing her cleavage as she inquired. She radiated confidence and was sure of her power to captivate any
man. She was resolute in her determination to win over Jayden.
Jayden saw through her intentions. He abruptly left the meeting room, with Eva following closely behind. In the
elevator, Jayden asked, “Did you recently graduate from college?”
Proudly, Eva confirmed, “Yes, | graduated from Princeton.” Jayden’s expression shifted, indicating a sudden
understanding. He proceeded to his office and commenced a video conference with individuals overseas. Two
hours later, the conference concluded.

Once Tobin, Jayden'’s assistant, had completed his tasks, he returned to Jayden’s office to provide him with a
report. After Tobin finished his report, Jayden gestured towards Eva and asked, “Who authorized her to handle
your tasks?”
Tobin glanced at Eva, who looked bewildered, and replied honestly, “She’s an intern secretary. She excelled
during her internship, so HR personnel assigned her to my tasks.” Jayden nodded and said, “I didn’t witness her
excelling. Extend her internship.”
Eva flushed with embarrassment, standing silently to the side. Tobin grasped the situation immediately. He knew
Eva must have done something to irk Jayden. After that, Tobin led Eva out of the office. With a stern tone, he
asked, “Did you overstep any boundaries?”

Avoiding his gaze, Eva denied, “No, | didn't.” She had just attempted to seduce Jayden once. Why was he so
upset? Did such a man truly exist, impervious to her allure?
Tobin, having worked with Jayden for years and encountered many individuals like Eva, warned, “Stop deluding
yourself. Provoking Mr. Owen will only lead to dire consequences.”
Eva maintained her confident smile, convinced that Tobin was just trying to intimidate her. Spending the morning
with Jayden had solidified her belief that he was the epitof the perfect husband: wealthy, handsome, and
charming. Dreams of marrying such a man filled her thoughts.
“Tobin, do you know what type of woman Mr. Owen prefers?” she asked. Tobin lost his patience and yelled, “Just
go back to your desk!” Startled by Tobin's sudden outburst, Eva meekly complied, lowering her head as she
hurried into the elevator.
As the elevator doors closed, she regained her composure and grumbled to herself, “Why does Tobin act so high
and mighty as Mr. Owen's assistant? Once | finish my internship, I'll take his place.” Determined to work harder
and win Jayden’s affection, she vowed to oust Tobin from his position and exact revenge for today’s humiliation.
Meanwhile, Tobin resumed his work at his desk. Upon receiving snews, he promptly rose and made his way
to Jayden’s office. Upon entering, Tobin delivered the update directly. “I've been informed that Mabel’s new
album has been removed from all online platforms. The sound bites from the short video are also being
scrubbed.”

Acknowledging the information, Jayden instructed, “Order them to blacklist Mabel. Any media or TV station that
continues to associate with her will face consequences.” Tobin, concerned, ventured, “But Mabel is your wife's
sister. Won't banning Mabel completely affect her?”
Jayden reclined in his chair, his tone casual as he remarked, “She’s my wife. She'll follow my lead.” Tobin was left
speechless. After a brief silence, he exited the room.
Left alone, Jayden retrieved his phone and stared blankly at Elyse’s messages. Tobin's words lingered in his mind,
but he remained convinced of the lack of family affection between Elyse and Lanny. He couldn't fathom Elyse
being the daughter of Lanny and Glenda. Mabel, undoubtedly the offspring of Lanny and Glenda, bore a striking
resemblance to her parents.
Meanwhile, Mabel roused from her hotel bed, preparing to freshen up before heading to the TV station for a new
variety show appearance. Her latest album had soared to success, catapulting her back into the limelight. With
newfound popularity, her schedule was booked solid for the next three months. She applied a facial mask and
ate a sandwich, reveling in her triumph.
However, her reverie was interrupted when her assistant rushed in, wearing a worried expression. “Something
terrible has happened.”
