Chapter 145:
The anger inside her boiled over.
She felt like a clown stripped naked on stage, now the butt of everyone’s jokes. There were too many people around her and nowhere to hide, even if she wanted to run away.
Madilyn’s heart sank as she realized her dream of becoming the lead of a ballet troupe was over. Her dream and career were both taken away from her.
Meanwhile, reporters in the audience clamored for answers from Milton.
They bombarded him with questions, their voices echoing through the venue.
“Mr. Lopez, why did you decide to buy the Royal Ballet Troupe?” one reporter asked.
“Does this mean the Royal Garden Corporation will be entering the arts field?”
“Why did you fire Madilyn first?” another reporter asked. “Can you explain your reasons?”
“Mr. Lopez, are you going to manage the Royal Ballet Troupe yourself or hire a professional to do it? And what about Greyson Harman? Is this acquisition some kind of revenge against him?”
Milton Lopez cast a cold, calculated glance at the reporter who asked.
The person who mentioned Greyson immediately fell silent, well aware of the history between the two men. The affair between Milton and Greyson’s newlywed wife had become something of a taboo. Anyone who dared bring it up risked losing their job.
Milton picked up the microphone on stage, his voice commanding the attention of everyone in the venue.
“A public relations team will soon share the latest plans of the Royal Garden Corporation with everyone.”
At the back of the venue, Candice watched the stage. Without thinking, she stepped forward.
Today’s events had completely surprised Candice. She never expected Milton to go ahead and purchase the Royal Ballet Troupe.
To make matters worse, he immediately fired Madilyn. Candice knew this was more than a simple dismissal.

It was a clear statement that Milton doubted Madilyn’s ability to manage the troupe and even her dancing skills. This public humiliation would make it difficult for Madilyn to find another dance troupe to work with in the future. This turn of events had effectively ruined Madilyn’s career.
Candice couldn’t help but wonder what kind of grudge Milton held against Madilyn to take such drastic action.
As she pondered this, she suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure walking past her.
She tilted her head and studied the figure. It was Greyson. He was already half an hour late.
As he stepped into the press conference, the commotion inside immediately caught his attention, causing him to furrow his brow.
From the reporters’ discussions and the questions being asked, he quickly pieced together what had happened.
