However, when he saw a contract being used by Marina to test Lipstick shades, the haphazard strokes across it, Marco paused and icily retorted, “Marina, do you even comprehend what your role is while occupying this seat?” Upon meeting Marco's frosty gaze, Marina momentarily felt cowed.
However, she quickly realized that Marco was now no more than a vanquished player. What was there to fear? Emboldened by this thought, Marina straightened her posture and defiantly met his glare.
“Today, | am the CEO of Bryant Group, the one wielding power! | know exactly what my duties are! You're no Longer the CEO, and we share no ties. You wretched has-been, stop preaching tohere!” Marco pressed his lips together and decided not to interfere any further.
