Mr Carroll Went Crazy After Divorce

After that day, Aurora had been busy with the designs for their new products. And she hadn’t seen Sion again. There used to be little attachment between the two of them, besides, he showed no mercy to her at that time, so she wouldn’t be kind to him as well.

But on this day, something astonishing everyone happened.

Early in the morning, there was a bit of breaking news shocking the financial circle, saying that the well-known designer, “Queen”, made a big move when she had just returned home, which was her secret acquisition of the shares of Carroll Group. And that made her the biggest shareholder of Carroll Group.

The whole industry was in an uproar.

The Carroll Group was a family business that has taken a hundred years to reach its prime. There were speculations that the business was going to end up in Sion’s hands.

Moreover, it was also exposed that the share price of Carroll Group had kept falling in the past few days, which was another reason to verify Queen’s acquisition of Carroll. At this point, the shareholders of Carroll Group panicked, and so did its investors. Almost overnight, Carroll suffered an unprecedented crisis, in which Sion Carroll’s credibility was undermined a lot.

When Anna told Aurora this news, Aurora looked up in shock, “I bought Carroll Group?”

It was quite unlikely, whether because of her ability or her identity as a designer. The main business of Carroll was real estate development, while its investment in other industries only covered a small portion of the whole. And Aurora was a fashion designer, far from real estate. Besides, she returned the equity transfer without her signature to Sion a few days ago.

Anna was rather puzzled about the news, “The news is getting crazy heat. Carroll Group should have been dealing with their public media coordination, but the topic topped the trending chart over and over.”

Someone had made moves.

“Is it possible that Sion has some other enemies?” Aurora muttered.

“On the surface, whether the news is true or not, the beneficiary is you. The share price of Crescent has indeed increased substantially, and many companies called to make appointments to meet with you. That means we gain a lot of clout with the help of Carroll.” Anna stated.

“And everyone sees your strength from it.”

But Anna did not finish her words. The latter part of her words was “all evidence suggested that Aurora was the one spreading the news”.

She glanced at Aurora, who had quickly grasped the meaning of her words and lowered her eyes.

Suddenly, a possibility flashed in Aurora’s mind.

“I see. You get busy.”

“Okay.” Anna left.

Sitting in the office chair, Aurora was hesitating to dial a number while holding her cell phone.

Although she had nothing to do with the news, the media must have found something to start to make the rumour justified. She had to find out the one behind everything.

Then she thought of Sion, who had sent her a share transfer letter the other day. And she had told Albie about everything.

At this moment, Aurora decided to make the call.

“Aurora?”

“Albie,”

Aurora asked while whirling the pen in her hand, “Have you read the financial news this morning?”

“Yeah.” Albie paused for a moment and continued, “I did it.”

Aurora was stunned.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Why did you do that?”

Maybe that was a business tactic. But it seemed that Albie was taking it out for her.

“You don’t have to worry about it.”

Albie’s laughter came from the receiver, “I have a reason. if you think that corrupted your reputation, how about doing something to ‘repay’ me?”

“No need for that.”

Aurora verified the idea in her heart and exchanged a few more words with him before hanging up the phone. Since this matter had nothing to do with her, it was Sion’s problem. And whether he could handle this or not, was on him. She did not care about him.

However, Aurora did not expect what was yet to come.

Downstairs at the Crescent Group building, Maisy got out of a taxi with fury. She took off her glasses and snorted, “Aurora Robertson, you’re something now!”

She was in a huff at the though of Aurora working in such a magnificent building. She did not expect to see her come back to life all of a sudden, not to mention the shocking news which was deemed to be led by her.

Maisy swaggered into the building while thinking about the words she was about to scold Aurora.

The guards at the gate stood up to stop her, “Ma’am, may I help you?”

“I’m looking for Aurora!”

Maisy glanced at the guard and said haughtily, “I am her mother-in-law! Won’t you let me in?”

The guards looked at each other, speechless for a moment. They didn’t intend to keep her out, but they would not let her in after her telling them her identity.

One of them had an awkward but polite smile on his face, “Ma’am, we don’t have Aurora here, you should be looking for the wrong place.”

Aurora did not publicize her real name here.

“Lying!”

Maisy’s eyes were wide open and she looked at him suspiciously, “I’ve been asking around for a long time, she’s here as a chief designer. Are you tryna hide her?”

As she said that, wrath surged through her.

“I have to go in today! Try and stop me!”

Then she was about to barge in. Both of the guards reached out to stop her at the same time, “I told you that there is no Aurora here. Aren’t you making things difficult for us?

“What are you talking about? Huh?” Maisy roared like a lion, “You’re the ones who didn’t let me in!”

“I told you, there’s no one you’re looking for here!”

“How can that be!”

Maisy ruffled her hair and fished out her phone from her bag, “You guys take a good look, is this woman here or not?

Maisy was confident.

Aurora was looking at some designs when Anna knocked on the door in a hurry, “Queen, we got in trouble!”
