Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 824

Georgie Clementine felt extremely embarrassed by this scene.

The large screen on the building across the street was still displaying the proposal...

"Henry Armstrong... I've already told you what I intended to say... The advertisement cost must be very expensive. Hurry up and get someone to cancel it... I hope you'll meet someone better," Georgie said.

With that, Georgie looked coldly at the employees around her. "What are you people doing? Don't you need to work?" She asked.

As soon as she said those words, the employees guiltily looked down and ran back into the building.

Georgie followed the others and returned to the building.

All the pedestrians were shocked by what happened.

With such a tall, rich, and handsome man proposing, any woman would probably agree according to how things normally played out... However, why were things different this time?

Henry Armstrong, on the other hand, completely expected this. He didn't feel surprised at all.

However, being rejected by her in front of so many people and leaving him behind like this, Henry still felt quite humiliated.

He let out a long sigh before scratching the back of his head. After that, he turned around and returned to his luxury car. Henry drove off.

Meanwhile, the bodyguards who came with him quickly got into their cars and followed him after seeing him leave.

Long after they were gone, the crowd of pedestrians still hadn't dispersed.

Everyone was talking among themselves.

"Don't you guys think this woman is very dumb? That man was quite handsome, and he's extremely rich. If I were her, I would have agreed to him with a smile on my face."

"If I was offered such a tall, rich, and handsome man, I would have thrown myself at him without him even proposing."

"Isn't this woman way too lucky? I'm extremely jealous. Only other people can get suitors like this."

"Who is this guy? He's actually very wealthy. The advertisement is still running. I heard that advertisements like this cost 30,000 dollars each minute..."

"30,000 dollars a minute? This advertisement must have gone on for at least ten minutes, right? Does that mean it already cost 300,000 dollars? Is this guy insane?"

"I want to become that lady so that I can be in a relationship with that guy... Ahh...”

When Georgie returned to her office, she discovered that the advertisement was still playing on the building across the road.

She helplessly pinched her forehead before sitting down.

"Knock, knock, knock-"

Someone knocked on her door again.

"Please come in..." Georgie picked up a document in front of her and started reading it while she spoke.

Very soon, her personal assistant, Katie Wolfgang, quickly walked over to her.

"What is it?" Georgie asked.

Katie directly put her phone on Georgie's desk. "You've appeared on the list of trending topics..." She said.

Georgie curiously looked at Katie before shifting her gaze to Katie's phone.

The phone's screen displayed Weibo's list of trending topics.

Right then, her name was actually on the fifth spot. '#Rich guy publicly proposes to Georgie Clementine#.'

Georgie immediately tapped on the link.

The first thing that came into view was a post by a netizen.

"Location: Atlantic City. A rich guy purchased screen time on an advertisement space on the building across X Entertainment, as well as countless balloons, to publicly propose to Georgie Clementine... In the end, the lady rejected him without hesitation... Even now, the proposal is still being displayed on the screen."
