"Married?" Renee's eyes widened in disbelief.
A few days ago, her best friend Grace had texted her on WhatsApp saying that Giselle and Donovan had issued their marriage certificate. She thought it was just rumors and didn't check.
That was why she couldn't believe it when she heard it straight from Donovan.
Even if Donovan had broken off the engagement with Anne, she still didn't think the Kane family would ever accept someone with a tainted reputation like Giselle.
"That's right," Donovan replied.
Giselle strolled over with her arms crossed and said with a smirk, "If you still don't get it, let me make it clear to you. I'm now the lawful Mrs. Kane.
"Besides, stop pretending to be some elder of mine. My parents are long gone, and I have no so-called elders. Since you're here for business, please show some respect."
Renee glared at Giselle with anger, refusing to accept the truth.
She found it hard to believe that Giselle could rise from the ashes.
While Renee stood frozen, Giselle turned to Donovan. "Darling, I overheard everything just now. Let me handle the collaboration with Mdm. Moore. It'll be good practice. The sooner I get the hang of it, the sooner I can ease your burden."
After a moment of consideration, Donovan nodded. "Alright, I'll leave it to you."
As a major shareholder of a hundred-billion-dollar corporation, Renee knew her priority had to be profit. This was a critical moment to make money, so she couldn't let personal grudges jeopardize the collaboration with Kane Group.
Therefore, she held back her anger and lowered her tone slightly. "Since Donovan gave you the final say, you'd better be smart and agree to my terms. It'll benefit you too."
Giselle let out a soft mocking snicker. "Oh, really? Mdm. Moore, how exactly does giving you a lower price benefit me?"
Renee spoke confidently, "Don't forget, my company holds 7.9% of your father's shares. The more profit my company makes, the more he earns. All that money will end up being yours anyway."
Giselle scoffed, "I'm already married into the Kane family. Do you still think I care about the pennies my father has? Renee, if you want the lowest price from Kane Group, you'll have to agree to one condition…"
