From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables

Chapter 1247: 566 Second Watch_1 Chapter 1247: 566 Second Watch_1 The annual Pethkids business conference was set to take place this weekend – a grand event where the elites, nouveau riche, wealthy class and renowned figures of Pethkids all gathered to mingle and network.

If lucky, they might even be able to invite Mr.

Elijah to deliver a speech.

Given its significance as a major event in Pethkids, any serious contender would have began preparations at least a month in advance.

This was both a trading floor for men and a beauty contest for women.

In short, the typically quiet Pethkids was lively again owing to the forthcoming business conference.

...

Leading the charge in Pethkids was Digby Hart, indisputably the Richest Man of Pethkids and a legend for his impact on the city’s GDP.

It would be fair to say that without him, Pethkids’ economic development would rewind a decade.

Even Mr.

Elijah gave him respect.

The Chairman of the chamber of commerce was not an elected post, but it was rightfully his.

During several past conferences, the event had become a platform for Artie Group to unveil their new products.

They would occasionally invite popular artists to perform, ensuring a great atmosphere.

However, this year with The Rintos suddenly becoming more prominent, the dynamics had subtly shifted.

The Rintos’ current assets were no smaller than that of the Artie Group, especially after revealing that Agave Rinto’s net worth was on par with that of Digby Hart.

Owing to his handsome appearance, he had a high popularity online.

If it weren’t for The Rintos intentionally keeping a low profile, Agave could easily have become a sensation in the limelight.

Despite appearing harmonious on the surface, the chambers of commerce were far from stable.

When a company reached a certain status and began to stabilise, it was destined to internal power struggles, with disunity and greed gradually eroding the initial intentions.

Digby Hart’s fame was massive.

Both external foes and internal traitors were aplenty, desiring to pull him down from his pedestal to make a meal out of him.

He was like a gigantic treasure chest that everyone desired to plunder, yet none dared to make the initial move.

The rise of Agave Rinto, seemed to offer a glimmer of hope to those waiting in the shadows.

Both men stood like two stone lions guarding the city of Pethkids, equally formidable and at a stalemate, while the ants beneath hoped for a fight among the lions, for their own chance to feast.

This upcoming conference may hold that golden opportunity.

“Mr.

Hayes, Agave Rinto has confirmed his attendance to the conference.”

“Excellent!” The man gleamed, clapping his hands together in amuse.

“When Digby Hart and Agave Rinto square off, who cedes to whom?

They might even come to blows, and then we can reap benefits out of their conflict.”

“Mr.

Hayes, I’m afraid it won’t be as simple.

Mr.

Hart, well-versed with the business world, isn’t typically one to act impulsively.”

Before the assistant could finish, he was violently kicked in the chest, “Bullshit, didn’t I teach you to create opportunities when there are none?

What am I paying you for?”

The assistant immediately climbed back up, slyly commenting, “To intimately relate the two, we would naturally require a link.

And to provoke a fight, we would need a fuse.

For that, we have only her.”

Sadam Hayes, the current Vice Chairman of the business conference, and Digby Hart’s old business partner, had always desired to usurp power.

After causing significant losses due to a decision-making error a few years ago, he voluntarily went to Beverley Island to start on a new project.

It was similar to being exiled and only after two years, once the storm had settled, did he dare to return to Pethkids.

ImPatiently, Sadam Hayes asked, “Who?”

“Mr.

Hayes, since you’ve just returned, you may not be aware.

A new figure emerged in Pethkids last year, the Grooves’ real heiress….”

“The Grooves?

Which Grooves?

Oh, I remember now.

The one that started by selling mutton soup.” The tone was dismissive.

“This real heiress turned out to be fake….”

Sadam Hayes impatiently said, “What on earth are you blabbering about?

Real or fake?

You’re confusing me.”

The assistant hurriedly said, “Mr.

Hayes, let me finish.

She’s not actually the Grooves’ real heiress but Pindo Rinto’s daughter.”

“What?

Pindo Rinto’s daughter?” At the mere mention of Pindo Rinto, Sadam Hayes began trembling uncontrollably.

Having experienced that era, he knew the depth of terror and bloodthirsty Pindo Rinto was.

The assistant nodded, “Exactly!

Agave Rinto personally confirmed it, it can’t be wrong.

But what’s more peculiar¸ do you know?

She’s also Digby Hart’s god-sister, Mr.

Hart formally recognized her as his god-daughter at last year’s longevity banquet, in front of everyone, even gifting her the Dreamy Villa as a token of kinship.”

“Digby Hart is actually associated with Pindo Rinto’s daughter?

Ridiculous!

When we first started our business, we went through so much hardship under Pindo Rinto.

Has he forgotten all about it?” Sadam Hayes said, infuriated.

“He’s been colluding with The Rintos all along, hasn’t he?”

The assistant shook his head, “Not possible.

This lady was revealed to be Pindo Rinto’s daughter only after Mr.

Hart had recognized her as his god-daughter.

I guess even Mr.

hart was kept in the dark.”

“This lady is certainly a talent, I should meet her when convenient.”

“Mr.

Hayes, this lady is the link between Agave Rinto and Digby Hart, naturally a suitable fuse too.

If we invest some effort in her, there’s no concern about your plan not being executed.”

Sadam Hayes gave a satisfied laugh, “Your suggestion is good.

‘God-sister’ huh, there are many so-called ‘god-sisters’ who ended up in bed.

I bet Digby Hart is no saint, perhaps she is merely a cover-up.”

His eyes narrowed as he planned, “So, we shall proceed this way….”

The assistant nodded vigorously, “Mr.

Hayes, your plan is brilliant.”

“If you can pull this off for me, this position will be yours.

If not, I’ll throw you into the Bridoria River to feed the sharks.”

The assistant hastened to respond, “Mr.

Hayes, rest reassured, I will get the job done elegantly.

Just sit back and enjoy the drama.”

After the assistant left, Sadam Hayes ran his fingers through his hair filled with hair wax, preparing to invite someone for a drink, but then his phone screen suddenly blacked out.

He was scared to the point of nearly throwing his phone.

The pitch-black screen seemed to flicker with an electric current, and a row of English text popped up.

The elongated red characters were terrifying and unsettling, like fresh blood.

Sadam Hayes’s eyes widened in shock, “Ma…Madam?”

Sadam Hayes immediately slid off his chair and knelt on the ground.

The red characters on the screen kept changing, the more Sadam Hayes looked, the more horrified he became.

“Such a heavy responsibility, Madam, I can’t bear it.”

The other party seemed to know his thoughts and plans, and immediately popped up another line of English text.

Sadam Hayes exclaimed in surprise, “Really?

Will Madam really help me take down the Artie Group?

I will definitely do my best, please rest assured, Madam.”

Sadam Hayes climbed up from the ground and wiped the sweat off his forehead, the result of his excitement.

Unbeknownst to him, his phone had already returned to normal, as if all that had transpired was but an illusion.

“Great, with Madam’s assistance, it’ll be like adding wings to a tiger.”
