Forbidden Love: Angel’s Seduction - Chapter 256
The guests for tonight’s project launching already arrived at the venue. With the help of Samantha, they were able to invite some famous artists and musicians who would perform tonight to entertain everyone.
The sweet melody was resounding around the venue as the sensational singer JC performed her first piece. The other board members were surprised that Selene was able to organize this program smoothly.
Others said that their CEO was not influential at all but she managed to pull this off. She even managed to invite some prominent people in the business world who could become potential clients and investors of the Blackpearl Project.
With this, the Board members could see her in a different light. Unlike others were saying, Selene had managing and leadership skill. They couldn’t feel it before since Selene hadn’t started working in the company yet because of her studies.
Agnes’s mood darkened when she heard the comments of the other board members regarding Selene. They were still in the preliminary program but the board members were already praising Selene.
It did not take long when the performance of the singer was done. The host called Selene to come up to the stage. He asked her to leave a message for everyone.
Selene slowly walked towards the stage. She was being escorted by Renz. To the public’s eyes, they still thought that Renz and Selene were still engaged. They didn’t make any announcement yet about the breaking of their engagement.
“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming tonight. I hope you didn’t regret spending your precious time with us.” Selene politely said to everyone which brought smiles to the other guests.
This was the first time they saw Selene Anderson as she appeared to the public as a very fine lady. Ever since her parents died, they haven’t seen Selene Anderson attending gatherings within the business circle.
When her parents were still alive, she was always brought by her parents to different business-related gatherings.
They could see that the daughter of the famous businessmen, Claire and Mark Anderson, was already a grown-up now.
Selene continued acknowledging the guests. She was talking confidently, very calm, and composed in front of everyone. They were surprised that Selene was familiar with them although this was the first time they met her.
Little did they know, Selene already knew them since she worked with them in her previous life. In other words, Selene invited the people whom she partnered with or dealt with business before in her previous life.
She knew that sooner and later, these people would be the strength and resources of the Lockhart Enterprise in the coming years. She used her knowledge in her past life to her advantage.
Soon, the launching of the Blackpearl project started as Selene gave her signal. The venue suddenly became dark but there were lights focused on the stage.
The guests were anticipating what would happen next. Their eyes focused on the stage. Then a video presentation about the short overview of the Blackpearl project was being shown on the wide screen.
“Ladies and gentlemen, let me present to you the Blackpearl Project of the Lockhart Enterprise.”
After Selene said those words, the large curtain backstage was pulled up and the beautiful models, both male and female, started walking on the stage.
They were wearing the Blackpearl Collections. They were all unique designs that they hadn’t seen before.
The guests felt like they were watching a live international fashion show! The models were very professional in their catwalk and the clothing complimented them.
There were different clothing designs for children and adults, for singles and couples, for friends and for families. After showcasing the different designs, Samantha showed up, joining the models at the center stage.
Selene introduced Samantha as the creator of the Blackpearl designs collections.
“Oh my gosh, She’s Samantha, the owner of the famous Luna brand!”
“Selene Anderson collaborated with Miss Samantha of the Luna?!”
“No wonder the designs are superb and exquisite! They are beautiful!”
They were amazed to see these two stunning ladies working together on one project. They had never imagined that Samantha would give her designs for the Blackpearl even though she already established her own brand, Luna.
They planned to bring the Blackpearl Design to the international market!
Some guests already showed their interest to order some items. Some even asked if Selene and Samantha needed more investors for this project.
Agnes and the others who were looking down on Selene were slapped on their faces after seeing how successful the project launching was.
Selene garnered positive feedback from the board members. They were so happy and satisfied with the result. Selene had proven to them that she was capable of spearheading a program. They congratulated Selene and Samantha.
The show didn’t end there. There was a party afterward so that everyone could enjoy the dance floor.
While everyone was dancing and drinking, Selene approached Samantha. She hugged her tightly.
“Sam, thank you so much for your help. I owe you this!” Selene thanked her with her teary eyes. She was overwhelmed by the positive feedback from the people who attended the Kick-off.
“Hey, Don’t thank me. You also worked hard for this. Your success is also my success. Aside from being friends, we are partners, remember?” Samantha said, stroking Selene’s back.
They were still hugging each other when another pretty lady approached them.
“Can I join you as well?”
Both Samantha and Selene glanced in her direction. Samantha looked at her in confusion while Selene smiled brightly upon seeing her.
Selene broke the hug and immediately greeted the newcomer.
“ALEXA! You made it! I thought you couldn’t come!”
“I’m sorry, Selene. I am late.” Alexa apologized while smiling sheepishly.
Selene also invited Alexa so that she could introduce her to Samantha. These two ladies were her true friends, unlike Micaela who was fake.
“Sam, I’d like you to meet my friend, Alexa.” Then Selene turned to Alexa. “Alexa, this is Samantha.”
“Yes, I know her! I am a fan of her designs!!!” Alexa said with her eyes sparkling in excitement.
“Oh my gosh! It’s my pleasure to finally meet you in person, Miss Samantha! I am your fan!”
Alexa grabbed Samantha’s hands, shaking them vigorously.. Samantha and Selene giggled because of Alexa’s enthusiasm.
