Chapter 274:
After a moment’s hesitation, Rosalie nodded, placing her trust in Ashton. Despite his relative inexperience, Ashton appeared more composed than she did, effortlessly welcoming guests with a calm demeanor.
In truth, Ashton secretly hoped for troublemakers to make an appearance, having meticulously prepared for such an eventuality.
As he greeted the attendees, a confident smile played on his lips. He knew that the press conference would inevitably draw the attention of media outlets deliberately arranged by Jacoby.
Given Jacoby’s previous success in covertly sabotaging the exhibits, Sup Group likely assumed this press conference was nothing more than a publicity stunt—a notion Ashton had carefully crafted to lower their guard. He was certain that Jacoby and his associates wouldn’t miss the opportunity to attempt an undermining move.
Little did Jacoby realize, this antique exhibition press conference was, in fact, a trap set specifically for Sup Group.
Ashton’s goal was clear: he awaited the challenges from Sup Group, knowing that only then could he fully exploit the brewing confrontation between Skyline Group and Sup Group.
Once the antique exhibition gained fame, today’s attempts by Sup Group would undoubtedly backfire.
With the current buzz and high public interest, the repercussions would be significant, sending ripples through the industry.
Ashton was confident that when this situation unfolded, the shadowy figure behind Sup Group and the Marquez family would be forced out of hiding.
After all, when a fish is deprived of oxygen, it doesn’t require bait to leap out of the water; it jumps onto the shore in a desperate bid for survival.

Ashton rose confidently, his voice clear and authoritative as he addressed the audience.

Ashton’s poised delivery was broadcast live across various media platforms, reaching viewers far and wide.
To avoid stirring unnecessary rumors, Jacoby chose not to appear at the event. Yet, his attention remained fixed on the live broadcast.
Seeing Ashton’s self-assured demeanor, Jacoby clenched his teeth and sneered, “Ashton, just you wait. We’ll see if you can still smile later p>
As the applause from the audience gradually died down, Ashton seamlessly transitioned into the main event.
“This antique exhibition,” Ashton began, “marks a significant milestone in the phased completion of the museum construction project. Thanks to the relentless dedication of our project team, the main venue has been completed and has already garnered widespread acclaim p>
He continued, “After thorough discussions between Skyline Group and the Campbell family, we’ve decided to unveil our accomplishments to the public. To truly capture the essence of this exhibition, Mr. Bruce Campbell, the esteemed head of the Campbell family, and Mr. Charlie Arnold, the CEO of Skyline Group, have generously brought forth their most prized antiques and curios for public display p>
