Chapter 1241

“Such a coincidence, the same last name as Mr. Collins?"

Naturally, there were many people in the world with the surname Collins. It was nothing unusual. But

the way Mr. Collins emphasizes “the first time” seemed to suggest a long-standing dissatisfaction with

Arabella.

“Looks like everyone didn't have enough for lunch."

Upon hearing Hans’ remark, the room burst into applause. Yet nobody seemed to realize the

underlying meaning, thinking that Mr. Collins was about to give Arabella a piece of his mind, a stern

warning.

“Arabella's absence from the meeting is with my approval."

Hans' next statement left everyone dumbfounded, staring at him in disbelief.

"She didn't clock in at the office. That was my decision"

This statement sent shockwaves through the crowd again. They couldn't believe what they were

hearing.

"Delegating minor tasks to an assistant was my suggestion to her."

Once again, people in the room were stunned. All faces turned to stone.

So, Mr. Collins knew all along.

“Let me introduce you to my sister, Arabella. She'll be taking over more than half of the company's

operations in the future. Please, be gentle with her. After all, she's still in school and can't spare much

time."

Upon hearing this, everyone was speechless.

This seemingly arrogant young lady was Mr. Collins’ sister.

Nobody had ever heard about another girl in the Collins family.

When did she come into the picture?

Was she kept hidden by the Collins family, being secretly groomed as a successor?

And she was still in school! No wonder she looked so young!

Mr. Collins even stated that she would be responsible for over half of the company's operations in the

future.

What kind of abilities must she have, and how much trust must Mr. Collins have in her to make such a

statement?

So she might become the company's second-in-comman4d, or even the head.

God, they'd just completely offended her!

They were screwed.

Meanwhile, Arabella was left with several questions. When did she agree to take over more than half of

the company's operations? Was Hans making decisions without consulting her? Not leaving her an

out?

And why did he reveal her identity so soon? She hadn't fully dealt with thase hidden powers.

“Until we, the Collins family, decide to publicly announce her identity, I don't want to hear any rumors or

gossip outside. I hope everyone can respect this."

Hans' words left everyone stunned for a moment before they collectively responded, "Yes!"

"Bella, say hello to everyone.” When Hans looked at his sister, his eyes were filled with warmth, a stark

contrast to his earlier demeanor.

Everyone realized then that Mr. Collins’ previous tenderness wasn't the calm before the storm, but the

affection and concern of a brother for his sister!

The reason Arabella was seated next to Mr. Collins was not some hidden agenda, but simply because

she was his sister!

"Hello everyone, I'm Arabella. Looking forward to working with you all in the future.” Arabella's eyes

sparkled with a hint of nonchalance and curiosity.

Mr. Armand, seeing her expression and hearing her words, could barely stay on his feet, "Ms. Bennett,

I apologize for my earlier rudeness. Please forgive me."

"I failed to recognize your importance earlier, Ms. Bennett. Please, let bygones be bygones and

consider it a joke." Mr. Carter also stood up awkwardly to apologize, fearing Arabella might hold a

grudge against him.

“Ms. Bennett, I'm truly sorry for offending you earlier. I hope you can forgive me!" Mr. Baldwin also

looked mortified, wishing he could disappear into thin air. He blamed himself for his thoughtless

remarks.
