MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND - INTRO - Season 1 Episode 15

The following day, Cheyenne went to work at the Brilliance Corporation, dressed neatly in a smart attire as usual.

As soon as she entered the office, all eyes were cast on her, be it directly or subtly.

Ever since that incident happened, she was reduced from the chairman to a low-level manager. Thus, there were often strange gazes directed at her.

However, there were more people staring at her today.

Cheyenne was well aware of the reason. She reckoned that the commotion at the Carter residence yesterday had already spread like wildfire because of her blabbermouth relatives.

As she expected, when she entered the conference room, she was greeted with a sarcastic remark.

“Cheyenne, I heard that your useless live-in husband has returned. Why are you here at the office instead of serving him at home today?”

The person who spoke was in his thirties and resting his legs nonchalantly on the conference table.

There was a trace of disgust in Cheyenne’s eyes.

He was her cousin, Bryce Carter, and a few years older than her. He was incompetent yet arrogant and haughty.

Since her family took the Brilliance Corporation away from her, they appointed Bryce as the deputy general manager, thus giving him the chance to suppress her.

Thereafter, he was extremely complacent and would mock her sarcastically or show off to her whenever he saw her.

Seeing that Cheyenne was ignoring him with an aloof expression, Bryce became more aggressive. “I really take my hat off to you for being so thick-skinned. You did such a disgusting thing and got berated by everyone, but you still have the cheek to come to the office every day! We’re ashamed and embarrassed for you. Oh, you also gave birth to a bastard. Tsk, tsk.”

“Shut up!” With a furious expression, Cheyenne glowered at Bryce.

She could bear with it if she was being insulted, but she would never let anyone humiliate her daughter!

“Ah, you’re getting angry, huh? Haha, am I wrong?” Bryce turned around to look at the other Carter heirs in the office. Pretending to be innocent, he waved his hands gently and exclaimed, “Everyone here knows that your father is a bastard, and so are you. Your daughter is naturally one too!”

Everyone laughed out loud, not finding his words to be insulting.

They all felt that Bryce was right. Cheyenne’s father, William Carter, was not a Carter and was instead brought over by his mother when she married the senior Mr. Carter. Dominic Carter was magnanimous enough to take him into the family, even though he wasn’t a Carter. He even gave them some annual dividends of the company to support them. This was the best he could do.

Cheyenne was raised because the Carters took pity on her family. Thus, they felt that there was nothing wrong with scolding her.

Overwhelmed with fury, Cheyenne shivered. But before she could even say anything, the door of the meeting room opened again, and a domineering old man with white hair walked in. It was Cheyenne’s grandfather, Dominic Carter, the head of the Carter family.

“Welcome, Mr. Carter Senior!” Everyone stopped laughing and greeted him.

Bryce also stopped behaving nonchalantly and hurriedly went over to hold Dominic’s arm obediently. “Grandpa, have a seat. I’ll make you some tea.”

“No need.” Dominic sat down on the chairman’s seat at the end of the conference table. When he saw Cheyenne standing still with a furious expression, he rebuked sternly, “What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for me to invite you to take a seat?”

Cheyenne gritted her teeth, contained her anger, and sat down near the other end of the conference table.

Dominic glanced at everyone authoritative. “As you all know, the Stardust Corporation settled down in Orange Counter not long ago. The Stardust Corporation itself is a large enterprise with an annual turnover of more than two billion dollars. It is also backed by the famous Hutton family from the capital. I’m sure you all know how powerful they are. As long as we form ties with the Stardust Corporation, we will have a chance to get close to the Huttons. Many companies and families in Orange County are interested in getting close to them. We can’t fall behind!

“In short, the Carter family’s most important task now is to try to get the opportunity to cooperate with the Stardust Corporation!”

All of them looked happy. But when they thought of the Stardust Group’s haughtiness, they didn’t feel confident enough.

“However, the Carter family isn’t considered elite in Orange County. Are we going to be worthy of the Stardust Corporation?”

“We want to do it too, but it’s really difficult.”

Dominic slammed his hand on the table and barked, “I will make things clear now. I will hand over the Brilliance Corporation to anyone who manages to clinch a cooperation agreement with the Stardust Corporation!”

Everyone got into an uproar upon hearing these words.

The Brilliance Corporation was the largest and best-developed company among all the enterprises belonging to the Carters. Ever since it was taken over from Cheyenne a few years ago, many Carters had been eying the Brilliance Corporation. As long as they had a position in the company, their year-end dividends would surge.

However, they knew that they could forget about being the general manager because they knew that that position was meant for the scion, Bryce.

However, Dominic was now willing to offer the Brilliance Corporation in exchange for a cooperation agreement with the Stardust Corporation. He was clearly going to invest a lot of capital!

All of a sudden, everyone’s eyes reddened. They were eager to go to the Stardust Corporation to try their luck and see if they would be lucky enough.

Cheyenne clenched her fists tightly and clenched her jaw.
