Meanwhile, back in the city, Mr. Emery had already appeared on Julia’s YouTube channel, and just as she had expected, Mr. Emery had praised her, and even his daughter was signed to the channel. Instantly, the video became the number one trending video in the city. Everyone was watching it.
For a country’s Senate to recommend someone, she must be very, very highly professional. And not only that Julia witnessed a surge of 10k followers that very day, and it was still counting.
Also, the video now had 2 million views that very day, which practically meant Julia was the most popular person in the city at the moment.
What made her even more popular was that people witnessed what the Senate president claimed, how Julia explained it, and how good her explanation was – clean and clear.
Meanwhile, at the Alfred family meeting, they had also heard and witnessed what Julia was achieving, and how her name was on everyone’s lips.
Mr. Alfred began first: “I think we made a mistake sending Julia away. If she were still in this family, she could use this moment to promote our company – and you know how big a surge that would give us. The Senate president! There is nothing better than this p>
Mrs. Alfred nodded. “You’re right. We can claim she’s from our family and publicize it – that would also help p>
Everyone nodded in agreement; they wanted to claim Julia after having sent her away. Just then, Mrs. Leah – who was so happy that her daughter was finally getting recognition in the family
“It would be improper to go around claiming she is from the family. If Julia takes it the wrong way and rebukes it publicly, it would only deliver a fatal blow to us p>
They all looked at each other and nodded. Mrs. Leah continued, her voice steady but laced with urgency. “The only thing we can do now is call her back and give her everything she wants. Which means making her the COO p>
Mrs. Leah wanted to let her daughter finally take the position she deserved. Instantly, Victoria jumped up, her face twisted in anger. “Never! We all already concluded I will become the COO. You can’t just change it midway p>
Mrs. Leah met her glare calmly. “As you can see, she is getting the waves now. And it’s almost a week. Eden hasn’t gotten the so-called partnership from the Langstone family. It is only fair to give her a chance p>
Victoria slammed her hand on the table. “Eden had already spent so much on me and everyone in this family. He is working on the Langstone deal and will get it this week. He has already given us some partnerships aside from the Langstone. We can’t just betray him because of some momentum Julia is riding on. That trend will die soon p>
The room exploded into a heated argument. Voices clashed as accusations flew back and forth. Victoria’s supporters reminded everyone of Eden’s investments and connections. Others, swayed by Mrs. Leah, pointed to Julia’s skyrocketing popularity-the Senate President’s praise, the two million views, and the ten thousand new followers pouring in daily. Julia’s clean, professional explanation in the video had made her the most talked- about person in the city.
Mr. Alfred listened with a deep frown, his fingers drumming on the polished mahogany table. The Alfred family business had been struggling for months. Julia’s sudden rise felt like a lifeline they desperately needed, yet claiming it without caution could backfire spectacularly.
“Okay, everyone should calm down,” Mr. Alfred finally said, his authoritative voice cutting through the noise. ” Julia is like a ticking bomb p>

“If we go to her now, she might do something unpredictable – and Victoria still has her loyalty to this family. So for the time being, we place our trust in Victoria and Eden p>
Mr. Alfred added, “Eden is promising too, and he has a large company behind him. he could be of a great help and we can just discard him just like that”
Mrs. Alfred nodded. “Yes. We can still go and plead with Julia – but no. We won’t make her COO. and like how Victoria had said. she is just riding on a sheer luck and trend”
Mrs. Leah boiled with anger, sayifig nothing.
Meanwhile, at Mr. Jace’s mansion, Six- one of the two cultivators had gone to dig up everything on Marcus, and, he reported it all back to Master Jace.
“He’s really just a freeloader and a gold digger,” Six said.
“His fiancée recently broke up with him because he’s broke and has nothing going for him. He just hangs around. And lately, he’s been circling Natalie – the Langstone mistress. I think he’s after her too p>
Mr. Jace scoffed. “So an ordinary gold digger with a touch of cult-like arrogance is the one standing in our way p>
six nodded, “Yes. but I was confused about how he get to be someone close to the langstone. and he also has power. what if he is part of langstone family p>
Mr. Jace chuckled, “Why are you contradicting yourself. you just told me someone broke up with him because he was broke and a freeloader p>
“Him, being associated with Natalie is just a coincidence, and like you said. he is a gold digger also p>
Six nodded in understanding.
Then Mr. Jace turned to Six. “Go back to him and deal with him mercilessly. Make sure you deliver his head to me p>
Six bowed. with that, He walked out of the room, to face Marcus.
