Chapter 6
“I captured everything.”
The assistant replied in a low voice, with a hint of uneasiness on his face. “Jen, if Mr. Smith finds out about this, we…”
“I’m not worried, why should you be?” Jennifer interrupted the assistant impatiently, her exquisite makeup now twisted with annoyance.
“Do you need to go back to the Lee family during this trip?”
“No need, I have nothing to do with the Lee family anymore.”
Mae’s face darkened at the mention of the Lee family, and a cold light flashed in her eyes
Jean knew about the grievances and entanglements between Mae and the Lee family, so when she saw her friend’s expression change, she immediately changed the topic.
“By the way, Gray Corporation is having a grand banquet tomorrow night for the launch of a new project. The CEO of Beyond Technologies will also be attending. Do you want to go and get to know him in advance?”
Mae, who was lazily leaning back in her chair with her eyes closed, opened her eyes slowly upon hearing this.
Thinking about her purpose for coming back this time, she hesitated for a moment before nodding. “All right.”
“Let me give you a heads up. My elder brother is also involved in this project. Tomorrow night, he might be there as well. You need to figure out how to handle him in advance.”
Mae smiled nonchalantly. “He’s just an ex–husband. Why should I care about him? A qualified ex–husband should be treated like a dead person and have no contact at all.”
Jean burst into laughter at Mae’s jest and nodded in agreement. “You’re right. Ex–husbands should roll far away and never come back.”
The next day.
The project launch ceremony for Gray Corporation was held in a large commercial square facing the Gray Corporation building. The venue was luxurious and high–end.
Besides Gray Corporation and the major leaders of the companies involved in the project, there were also some esteemed officials attending the event. Hundreds of security personnel were present at the scene.
Mae arrived with Jean, dressed in a white off–the–shoulder evening gown that reached her ankles. The simple design of the dress highlighted her elegant and luxurious temperament. As soon as she stepped out of the car, all eyes were drawn to her.
Everyone’s gaze on her face was filled with surprise as they couldn’t help but stare at her graceful steps.
Mae handled the attention with ease. Whether in her previous life or this one, she was used to being In the public eye with this face that was known as a vase in the entertainment industry and the

identity of the wife of the president of the Smith Corporation.
Her expression remained unchanged as she walked in with Jean. Finally, someone couldn’t resist speaking.
“Isn’t she Mae? She hasn’t been in the public eye for a long time. Is she planning to make a
comeback this time?”
As soon as this was said, the sound of flashing cameras started to fill the air as media personnel took photos of Mae from every angle.
“Quick, take pictures. Mae disappeared for four years after her divorce. If she’s making a comeback now, we need to get the exclusive scoop.”
Most of the media invited this time were business reporters, so there were not many entertainment reporters willing to resort to any means to get the scoop. However, Mae’s appearance still caused quite a stir.
“Oh my God, it’s Mae! She’s back.”
“I have to say, Mae is truly beautiful.”
“We thought she would be hiding in shame after her divorce, but who knew she would come back looking this stunning.”
