When Noah heard this, he looked at Rachel with his eyes darkening.

The person who never revealed his emotions in public was actually caught off guard when facingRachel

All these years, he had always thought that he was a strategist and none of his schemes had everfailed, However, Rachel’s appearance was like a slap on his face.

It made his smartest schemes which he had been proud of all these years instantly become a joke.

Everything was going smoothly according to his plan, and Rachel had fallen into the trap as heplanned. However, he could not understand why there was a slip up at the most critical moment.

And it was such a huge slip-up!

He clenched his fists tightly under the table, and a fleeting ruthlessness flashed across his eyes.

What the hell was going on?

He didnt say anything for a long time, as if he was trying his best to suppress the anger in his chest.

Meanwhile, Rachel did not rush him. She just looked at him calmly.

Her elegant posture was like a cat teasing a mouse, causing Noah to feel a sense of defeat

“Ms. Grey, it’s great that you re here!” The people beside her said from the bottom of their hearts. Themoment they saw Rachel, they seemed to have regained their confidence, and their faces were filledwith joy.

Compared to these people who were quite thrilled to see her here, Carolina was acting a bit weird.

Rachel noticed her reaction and only smiled without saying a single word.

At this moment, after the people on stage sorted out their feelings, they announced the official start ofthe meeting

The content of today’s meeting was very simple. It was nothing more than a selection process by thecouncil to determine the candidates for a strategic partnership.

Soon, the representative of the Skysgate Group, Aileen Dickinson, walked onto the stage.

After a few opening remarks, Aileen opened the name list in her hands. When she saw the names onthe list, her eyes glistened slightly. Then, she put it down and looked at the people below the stage

Everyone waited expectantly for the results to be announced.

Getting the support of the Skysgate Group meant never having to worry about investments or flatteringanyone.

After all, with Skysgate Group’s strength, it was one of the top companies in the world.

Everyone held their breaths and focused. Their hearts started racing, and their hands were tightlyclenched into fists.

Under everyone’s gaze, Aileen slowly smiled, “Miss Grey, I now officially invite you on behalf of theSkysgate Group. Are you willing to accept the Skysgate Group’s invitation and become our strategicpartner? Are you willing to maintain a good cooperative relationship with us in the future?”

As soon as she finished speaking, people all gasped in shock.

On the stage, Noah’s expression changed.

His sharp gaze subconsciously swept toward the middle-aged woman sitting beside him.

His gaze was like a knife and he wanted to cut the woman into pieces. The woman was shocked, andher eyes were filled with panic. “Mr.

Jones, L…”

Seeing how flustered she was, Noah understood.

He expected that this woman would not dare to go against his wishes and change the candidate at will.

Thinking of this, he looked at Aileen with a dark and cold gaze.

At this moment, everyone’s gazes landed on her.

They could not understand how Johnson Corporation got this spot.

Johnson Corporation had just been exposed yesterday as suspected of maliciously polluting the sea.Even if Rachel was released now, with evidence, Johnson Corporation would eventually be unable toget away with this.

At this sensitive time, smart people would choose to protect themselves and hide as far away aspossible for fear of being implicated. However, Skysgate Group rushed forward.

Was Miss Dickinson from Skysgate Group out of her mind?!

Besides, didn’t Miss Dickinson have a conflict with Rachel previously?

At that time, everyone was secretly rejoicing. Rachel was blind enough to provoke Miss Dickinson andwas kicked out early. How did she suddenly become the best choice for Skysgate Group?

At this moment, the middle-aged woman sitting beside Noah said, ‘Miss Dickinson, we’ve previouslydiscussed about this and decided that…”

Before she could finish speaking, the door of the venue was pushed open again.

Anger rose in her heart for no reason. Just as she was about to scold the person who barged in, shesaw a few uniformed police officers walking in.

Everyone was stunned.

Noah, who was sitting on the stage, frowned slightly when he saw the group of people in front of him.He turned his gaze and looked at Rachel.

Coincidentally, he saw the unpredictable smile on her face and felt uneasy.

The police officers looked around and asked, “Who reported the case?”

Upon hearing this, people all gasped. Everyone looked at each other confusedly.

At this moment, Haley slowly stood up. “It’s me.”

The police officer looked at Haley “You said that you were threatened?”

“Yes,” Haley answered firmly. She turned her gaze to Noah, who was sitting on the stage and pointedat him. “That’s him.”

Faced with Haley’s accusation, Noah did not look flustered at all. He looked calm as usual as if he hadalready thought of a way to get himself out of this in his heart. “Miss Bean, we don’t know each otherthat well, and we don’t have any private interactions, so I really don’t know where your accusationagainst me came from.”

Haley could not help but sneer. Then, she picked up her phone and played a recording. “Miss Bean, aslong as you’re willing to join me, I can satisfy all your requests. I hope you can consider it seriously.”

After the recording ended, the venue fell into silence.

Everyone looked at Noah with intriguing gazes.

Noah did not look flustered at all. He was rubbing his coffee cup with his fingers and said calmly. “Thisrecording doesn’t mean anything, and there’s no way to testify against the so-called coercion.”

Hearing this, Haley’s eyes flickered slightly.

She originally thought that the recording in her hands was like a trump card. However, there was still aloophole. She ignored the fact that the valuable clues provided by this recording were minimal, andthere was no direct evidence to accuse Noah of coercing her.

Seeing that she could not say anything else, Noah spoke again. “Miss Bean, I only invited you to joinmy team out of goodwill back then. I didn’t have any ill intentions. However, you recorded ourconversation and misinterpreted my good intentions maliciously. I can sue you for libel.”

Originally. Haley was prepared to go all out. She was even mentally prepared to face theconsequences of provoking Noah and his father. However, the situation was beyond her expectations.

“You only didn’t participate in this directly, but that doesn’t prove your innocence.” Haley’s voicetrembled slightly. Her confused and flustered eyes gradually became firm with determination. “Juliandrugged and raped me and even took a lot of private photos of me to threaten me. As long as I don’thelp you frame Rachel, you will expose the photos!”

After all, Noah had been through a lot. In the face of Haley’s accusation, Noah did not panic at all. Heremained calm and composed. He put down the cup in his hand neither too gently nor too heavily. His

deep voice sounded intimidating. “Where’s the evidence?”
