Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 201

Reporters were shaken up about the conclusion. They fell silent, their mouths dropping open in surprise.

"What? I thought Ava was a man."

"Me, too. Is Ashley Ava? How...could that possibly be true?"

"Hang on. It's said that Kerston invited Ava to their 60th anniversary celebration. We'll find out whether Ashley is Ava very soon."

"But I heard that Ava had declined to attend the banquet."

"No way. Why did Ava refuse it? Kerston announced that they had hired a top racing driver as their secret spokesperson. If it isn't Ava, who will it be?"

When Ashley was chatting with Pullan and Lester, she suddenly found that the reporters around her were looking at her from time to time.

She turned to stare at them.

Her sudden stare caught them off guard. As their gazes met, the reporters immediately looked away as if they had been caught doing something bad.

Ashley was confused.

It was as if she was some kind of monster.

Beside her, Lester couldn't help but laugh.

She asked with a confused look, "Why are you laughing?"

He teased, "It's quite common that an artist is afraid of meeting reporters. And now it's the other way around. Interesting."

She was speechless.

As Ashley was about to reply, she saw Ryan and Jessica walking into the hall. She immediately put on a gloomy look.

Obviously, Ryan also noticed her.

Needless to say, Ashley was invited as a popular artist.

He cursed inwardly, 'I can't believe she still has the nerve to show up at all kinds of events. If it weren't for her, Jessica wouldn't have ended up as the least favorite artist. My poor Jessica, what did she do to deserve this?

'If there weren't so many people around, I'd definitely teach this vicious woman a lesson!'

Everyone in the hall glanced at Jessica with contempt and sarcasm in their eyes.

Some of them whispered, "Look who's there. Doesn't she have any sense of embarrassment?"

"Shame on her."

Ryan got more angry when he heard it and hated Ashley even more. However, his priority was to protect Jessica.

At this time, Jason Miller, Kerston's president, entered the hall.

Jason was a middle-aged foreigner with blond hair and blue eyes.

Ryan came up to greet him like they were close friends.

"Hello, Mr. Miller."

Jason nodded and replied, "Ryan, long time no see." He sounded like a native speaker.

Ryan smiled broadly, "I didn't expect that Kerston's 60th anniversary celebration would be held in Zyrrinthia."

Jason replied, "Zyrrinthia remains an untapped market for us. We value and respect customers here. Based on our professional assessment, we decided to hold our anniversary celebration in Zyrrinthia."

A brand like Kerston which had thrived for 60 years highlighted the importance of product quality and customer service.

People in the hall were surprised to see Ryan and Jason getting along with each other.

"Look at them. Ryan and the president of Kerston seem so close."

"What's all the fuss about? The brand of Ryan's race car is Kerston. He's been driving it for many years, and he once won second place. It's not surprising that he knows Mr. Miller."

"I heard that Mr. Miller is going to announce a mysterious spokesperson today. It's said that he's a racing driver. Will it be Ryan?"

"Well, there's a good chance. Ryan has been driving Kerston's race car. What's more, he seems to be a close friend of Mr. Miller. He's likely to be the spokesperson."

After exchanging pleasantries, Ryan stretched out his right hand and said, "It's an honor to be invited to Kerston's 60th anniversary celebration."

Jason shook hands with him, without saying anything.
