NovelTrueChapter 902: A quick scan of the documents told Brenna all she needed to know. "The site looks promising, and there's plenty of space. Alright, let's sign up for the auction." Thiago nodded before bringing up selevator chatter. "Did you catch the news? The Mitchell Group is gearing up for its tenth anniversary celebration." Brenna shook her head. "No, Ethan didn't tellthat." Amusement danced across Thiago's face as he leaned back in his chair. "You must really trust Ethan." With a puzzled look, Brenna replied, "How is a company anniversary related to whether I trust him? It's a company event. All Ethan has to do is sign off on their plans, right?" Thiago shook his head resignedly. "Honestly, I don't know what to do with you. You're so close to Ethan, yet he doesn't tell you anything. The tenth anniversary celebration is nothing special. The important thing is who's attending the event. The entire Mitchell Group is buzzing about it, and you're still in the dark." With confusion etched across her face, Brenna asked, “What exactly did you hear? Why do I get the feeling that this is a threat to me?" Holding her coffee, she took a slow sip, maintaining a calm demeanor. "So, who's on the guest list for this tenth anniversary? Is there something I should be worried about?" A shadow passed over Thiago's expression. "I had a feeling Ethan would keep you in the dark about this. Maybe you never realized, but when the Mitchell Group started out in Norview, three founders sat at the table. Ethan took the lion's share, handling things here, while the other two were minor players, mostly taking care of matters in Norview." A faint crease formed on Brenna's brow. "I've never really asked Ethan about the shareholders. I always figured he founded the company on his own. I didn't even think there was a board." "That's a bit too trusting," muttered Thiago, his tone edged with frustration. "Do you even know who those other shareholders are? Looks like you've been played by Ethan, Brenna." Slowly, Brenna set down her cup and leaned back in her chair, her face turning serious. She trusted Thiago to be honest; he never exaggerated. "Honestly, I have no idea." Your imagination thrives at punt"You won't find many who know the full story. If you want the truth, ask Ernst. But letshare something I heard just this morning. One of those shareholders is Gracie Wilson, daughter of the CEO of the Wilson Group. She holds a ten percent stake in the Mitchell Group and was Ethan's right hand when the company was still in its startup phase. More than that, she used to be his girlfriend." The revelation left Brenna reeling. She blinked, trying to process it, and repeated, "His girlfriend?"
Thiago slammed his palm down on the table with a sharp thud. “You probably think I'm talking nonsense, but this isn't a rumor I pulled out of thin air. Everyone in the Mitchell Group's upper rank has been talking it. Neve about it even heard the details from a dinner with a few executives.
People can't stop talking about Gracie. Her reputation for both beauty and talent precedes her. Word is, Ethan holds her in the highest regard. For this visit, he's gone all out, rallying the company's leadership to greet her at the airport. He's making it clear how much Gracie's arrival means to him by orchestrating such an elaborate reception."
