Dylan, Isaac, Lilith Carter, and others led the way. The rest of the company's shareholders and executives followed, making Cecilia a little suspicious.
"These two men and one woman, who are they?"
Cecilia was certain that she had never seen these three people before at the company. And to be able to walk with Dylan and Isaac at an event like this, leaving shareholders and executives behind, they were obviously in a very different position.
When Cecilia was confused, Isaac looked around at the crowd and suddenly fixed his eyes on Cecilia. His eyes were cold, and his gnashing of teeth looked ferocious.
Their eyes met.
Cecilia panicked and realized something was wrong.
She was found…
Then Isaac picked up his pace and started walking aggressively toward Cecilia.
Cecilia's heart beat violently and she turned to go.
The courage that had been inspired by Sean vanished in a flash.
In front of the entire shareholders, executives, and colleagues of the Moore Group, as well as so many passers-by, how could Cecilia step down if Isaac sneered and said some harsh words?
She was a woman after all!
For five years she had suffered enough cold eyes and bullying at the Moore house. And now she was kicked out of the Moore Group, and was she going to be humiliated by Isaac again?
She would not be reconciled!
"Cecilia, what's wrong?"
The woman next to her reached out to stop her, "You wouldn't want to miss such a big deal as the new CEO's appointment, would you?"
"Get out of the way!"
Cecilia pushed the woman away and whispered, "I'm not feeling well. I came to the company today to go through the procedures of leaving. As for the appointment of the new president, well, it has nothing to do with me!"
With that, she strode away.
"Leaving?"
The female employee immediately blinked, froze in there, dumbfounded.
As a colleague, she knew how Cecilia had been wronged in the company. Now, the Moore Group had changed, with a new boss, and no longer belonged to Carter Moore. By rights, Cecilia should be happy.
Why would she leave?
Cecilia didn't explain, she just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible and avoid Isaac, so she walked faster than Isaac, as if she was afraid that Isaac would catch up with her.
However, back at the spot where she had just got off, Cecilia was stunned.
"Where's the car? Where's Sean?"
Cecilia had asked Sean to wait for her outside when she got out of the car, but at this moment, the roadside was full of cars, but Sean's Mulsanne was nowhere to be found!
In an instant, she was struck by lightning!
"Bastard!"
Cecilia thought subconsciously, "Did that guy just take the piss, leave me here, and drive off?"
After a moment's pause, she glanced around and saw a Mulsanne with a temporary license plate speeding off at the corner at the end of the street. In the blink of an eye, it was gone.
Who else could it be but Sean?
Cecilia stomped her feet and blurted out a low oath, "Liar! Liar! Liar! Men are so unreliable! Drop the ball at the last minute!"
"Cecilia, who are you cursing at?"
Just then, Isaac followed. Cecilia's voice, though small, was heard by him. He followed Cecilia's gaze several times down the street, then snorted, "Are you scolding your husband, the rapist who just got out of prison?"
