Chapter 556: Chapter 551: An Extra Layer of Clothing_1
Because of the nature of speakerphones, everyone else in the room could hear the conversation.
The… Big Boss?
Did Stefanus Parker just call Molly Walker the Big Boss?
Everyone present looked at Fanny Cunningham.
Fanny’s eyes widened, and her body stiffened.
She thought she heard incorrectly, and quickly asked, “Darling, why did you call Miss Walker the Big Boss? Are you… mistaking her for someone else?”
“He is not mistaken. I am his Big Boss.”
Upon hearing Molly’s words, Stefanus quickly added, “Fanny, she truly is our Big Boss. I never told you this before, but I am a part of ‘W’. In our company, I manage relationships in the entertainment industry. And the Big Boss is not only my Big Boss but also the Big Boss of every employee in ‘W’.”
Upon hearing that Stefanus was part of “W”, Fanny’s head spun, it was as if a thunderbolt exploded around her.
She took a step back subconsciously, looking at Molly in fear.
She had expected Stefanus to be part of “W”. She had already known that Stefanus was more than he seemed. However, she never imagined that Molly would be Stefanus’s Big Boss, the manager of the entire ‘W’!
This sudden revelation stunned not only Fanny but also everyone else present.
Who was Molly Walker? The manager of ‘W’?!
They only knew that Molly was related to “W”. Although there were speculations about her identity on the internet, no one dared to guess such a high position.
The Big Boss of ‘W’. What sort of astonishing plot did this woman have? It was too exaggerated!
“Stefanus, you must be joking. Even if Miss Walker is very powerful, managing ‘W’, this… is too exaggerated.”
Fanny was close to collapse!
If her rival had such backing, no amount of effort would be enough. No, there was no need to try, she could simply admit defeat.
She could never catch up to the person who the Big Boss of ‘W’ intended to favor.
What upset her even more was that her divine boyfriend turned out to be a subordinate of Molly.
This was absurd. Too absurd!
The others looked sympathetically at Fanny, who seemed to have her soul sucked out.
They, too, wouldn’t be able to handle such a blow.
“Fanny, since you’re with our Big Boss, get along well with her. Let me find out that you’ve bullied our Big Boss, and we will break up.” After saying this, Stefanus bid Molly goodbye over the phone and hung up.
Fanny was still in a daze, obviously shocked.
Olivia Sawyer walked up to her, slapped her shoulder hard, and said, “Don’t worry. I’m not interested in the backstage and all. You don’t have to fear me.”
With a slap, Fanny was startled and looked at Olivia in fear.
“Look how scared you are. I’m serious, we’re all in the same industry, and doing our responsibilities as actors well is what truly matters. I don’t like in-fighting or office politics.”
Perhaps moved by Olivia’s words, Fanny was no longer so fearful.
She felt relieved, fortunately, she hadn’t offended Molly Walker and Olivia Sawyer like Scarlett Jackson had, or else, she wouldn’t even know how she died.
This farce quickly passed, but the identity of Molly as the leader of ‘W’ spread instantly throughout the party.
Many understood that following tonight, Molly would likely trend again.
“So, as it turns out, you really are the manager of ‘W’.” Olivia Sawyer was surprisingly not shocked.
Anyone who could jolt her stagnating career back to life and wield such great authority would likely be a manager of ‘W’.
The one thing that was nice about this era was that if you had money, you could accomplish many things, but that’s also what was bad about this era.
The ‘W’ managed by Molly Walker not only had money, but also had power and connections.
She had long guessed that the Big Boss was a subordinate of Molly. It couldn’t be any other way for the Big Boss to push her so relentlessly.
But she hadn’t expected Stefanus also to be Molly’s subordinate.
Molly chuckled and said, “I’m sorry I couldn’t reveal my identity due to company policy. To be honest, I don’t think ‘W’ is all that powerful. It’s just exaggerations spread by others.”
“Whether they are exaggerations, they reflect reality.” Olivia sighed, “Today’s ‘W’ is different from the past. People both revere and respect your company.”
Any company that could make money and contribute to Orientopia’s cultural heritage would not spark envy, but admiration for the managers of ‘W’ and how well they operated the company.
Looking at Molly, who just smiled silently, her beauty was enchanting. Olivia sighed to herself.
Having a woman like this as a rival, Olivia was happy to admit defeat.
It was because she met Molly that she was willing to give up on Jeremy Norman.
Ironically, her “giving up” had led Jeremy Norman to confess his feelings to her.
Molly was her benefactor, and also her lucky charm.
Olivia pointed to the villa and asked, “What do you think of this house?”
Molly observed a few details and nodded, “It’s well decorated.”
“Then, take it. It’s a gift from me. You must not refuse, as I dislike owing people. If you don’t accept it, I’ll quit the entertainment industry and I will not pursue a career as a celebrity.”
Molly had helped her without seeking anything in return, and Olivia had long since wanted to give Molly a big present.
She accidentally found out that Molly had looked at houses in this neighborhood and immediately managed to find the landlord of the best property in the area. It took a lot of persuasion to convince the landlord to sell the house.
This detached villa was her gift to Molly, repaying her for her kindness.
Molly recognized Olivia’s intentions. Given Molly’s past connections with Jeremy Norman, if Molly does not accept this house, Olivia will not be able to comfortably be with Jeremy.
“Well, I won’t hold back then.” Molly did not refuse, she fluttered her eyes and smiled, “I’ll reserve a floor for you. You can come and live here anytime you want.”
Molly was treating her like a friend.
Olivia breathed a sigh of relief, then began to laugh, “Ok.”
The next day, the news that “Molly Walker is a manager in ‘W'” spread far and wide, dominating the trending topic list.
Many people have had this speculation before, but no one dared to say it out loud.
Multiple identities overlapping in one person. This was simply inconceivable.
In the Jenkins family mansion,
Mr. Jenkins watched the TV news with a dark expression.
“She finally got her hands on it.”
After all, ‘W’ belonged to the Jenkins family.
Jerry Jenkins sat next to Mr. Jenkins, his face grim.
He hadn’t been thinking about “W” these days. His mind was filled with Scarlett Jackson betraying him.
He was sure that Scarlett must have told Molly everything to save her life. Given the relationship between Molly and Michael Gallagher, Michael will surely find out.
“Jerry, what’s been wrong with you lately?” Mr. Jenkins quickly noticed there was something wrong.
Jerry’s eyes flickered, “Nothing.”
Even his grandfather didn’t know about what had happened back then.
If he hadn’t “dealt with” Noah Jenkins at the time, he wouldn’t have inherited everything from the Jenkins family.
But now, he had no choice but to tell.
“Grandfather, there’s something I have to confess.” Fixating his gaze on Mr. Jenkins, Jerry’s face was filled with guilt, “There’s something I’ve been hiding from you for a very long time.”
