Chapter 343 Reasons For Denial (2/2)

The law might not be doing it's job yet, but it will. One day,”

Emily said firmly.

Meanwhile, in Lin's villa, Leona rece

e had to seize the small window of opportunity to see Mr. Hess.

As expected, she was stopped at the gate.

”Miss, do you have an appointment?” The receptionist asked.

”No, but I need to see Mr. Hess. I have important business to sort out with him. Could you please call him?” she asked politely.

The receptionist refused. ”I'm sorry Miss, I'm afraid you can't see Mr. Hess without an official appointment.”

Emily didn't budge.

She knew that Hess was the head of Starry Night, and had the biggest voice. He could pretty much determine the verdict of the whole competition on his own. Apart from that, Emily heard that he was an honest and fair man. She couldn't give up this chance to see him.

Emily sighed. She knew that if she called Jacob for help, she'd be able to see Mr. Hess without any trouble.

She wouldn't, though. She'd never go to him for help.

Emily was adamant about achieving her goals with her own efforts, on solely her terms, without having to rely on anyone else for help.

The receptionist was accustomed to receiving people asking for the same thing just as Emily did. She wasn't really surprised, but she did wonder what kind of person Emily must've been to have been wearing such an expensive looking dress. It looked more like she was going to walk down the red carpet than visit Mr. Hess.

Did she visit the company to seduce him?

Everyone in the company knew that Mr. Hess had no fondness for people who used distasteful means to achieve their goals. Was this woman stupid?

The receptionist subtly narrowed her eyes at Emily. She must've enjoyed witnessing the misfortunes of others, as she looked scornful thinking that Emily was doing something foolish.
