My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 597 - 179: Why Did She Come?



A while later, Brian arrived as well with breakfast for two. He walked calmly towards Diana and gave her the food.

"Diana, why did you leave home in such a hurry? You haven't had your breakfast yet," he complained.

Brian's apparent good mood put Diana in a sulk. How could he be so refreshed when she just felt taken advantage of? It was unfair. Unfair!

Unaware of Diana's annoyance, Brian sat down and casually finished the breakfast.

Diana chewed as hard as she could as if every bite could hurt Brian in some way.

After Brian returned to his office, a knock on his door soon followed.

"Come in, please," Brian said.

His assistant entered the office.

"Boss, don't forget the press conference is tonight."

"Okay." Brian nodded. As his assistant was about to leave, Diana suddenly popped into his mind.

He stopped her and said, "Ask Miss Anderson to go with me."

"Okay, boss." The assistant got the request and went to Diana's office.

"Why not say it to Miss green yourself. Why command me to do everything? She is your woman…" The assistant complained to herself.

But of course, she didn't dare to say this out loud. After her grumble, she had to act on Brian's instruction.

"Miss Anderson, there is a new product press conference tonight. Hope you can attend," the assistant said in humble reverence.

"Okay, I'll be there." Diana agreed, assuming everyone had to attend.

That night, to her surprise, the press conference was not what Diana had thought. There were no other staff members there!

The other guests started to discuss Diana's appearance there.

"Why is she here?"

"This is Brian's press conference. Why did she come?"

"Who is she?"

Diana knew something was up. But as she was about to slip away, Brian took her by the hand.

He led her to the podium at the front of the room, then began in a serious tone, "Hello everyone, I'd like to introduce my fiancée," He paused for a second to look lovingly at Diana, "Diana Anderson."

The announcement took Diana totally by surprise, as well as the journalists present for the product announcement.

"Mr. William, how did you become acquainted with Miss Anderson?"

"There will be many disappointed women when people hear you are no longer single. Tell us, how do you two know each other?"

The scene was quite chaotic, but Brian only had eyes for Diana. He spoke to Diana in a quiet voice so only she could hear, "Diana, I will look after you. Let's get married."

Diana wanted to cry, but something stopped her from shedding any tears.

"You're forcing me to marry you!"

"May I?" Brian asked, nodding his head in the direction of the expectant audience.

Diana was moved by his earnest expression. Slowly she nodded her head in acceptance, and with great joy, Brian hugged her tightly.

Brian sat Diana down next to him, then continued with the announcements.

"Of course today was meant to be about our company's new product release. So I hope everyone can put their focus back on that now. For any more personal matters, I will discuss that in the next press conference."

Diana had always been attracted to Brian when he was working. When they were alone, Brian often showed his childish side. In front of others, however, Brian was always a vigorous and resolute leader.

In the middle of the meeting, Brian's assistant suddenly showed up at the door wearing a troubled look.

Since Brian was making his speech, he didn't notice her standing to one side; Diana saw her first.

Diana tugged Brian's shirt. It was only then that he saw his assistant, who was waving her hands dramatically in the air.

"Give me a minute," Brian whispered to Diana.

"What's wrong?" Brian asked.

"Boss, something is wrong. M-Color Ltd just did a press release for their new clothing range, and it is the same as ours."

"What did you say? How could this be?"

"I'm investigating."

"Okay, be quick about it," Brian said, shaking his head.

Brian's livid face made Diana worried.

"What's wrong?" she whispered.

Brian didn't answer her but walked to the center of the stage.

"I'm sorry to announce that we'll be postponing the release of our new product range. We'll give further explanation soon."

As Brian was about to leave with Diana, a reporter cried out after reading the news on her phone, "Mr. William, why is your company's new product exactly like M-Color's?"

Diana stared in shock at the reporter, then she turned to Brian.

But Brian still answered the reporter with a smile, "I'll give you all an explanation. Trust me."

With that, he left the meeting with Diana.

"What happened? How could M-Color have the same product as us?" Diana murmured.

Brian's face was screwed up in anguish as he went over what could have happened.

"M-Color is just a small company. Someone must have sent them our designs."

Diana's heart sank. "Could it be Kyle?"

The same thought was going through Brian's mind, as well.

Thanks to the Internet, the news spread fast, so Sybil soon found out what had happened, even on her vacation. She called Diana in a hurry.

"Hello, Diana, what happened at the company?" Sybil was really anxious.

After a mixture of pleading and threatening, Sybil had finally convinced Brian to give Ken the one-week holiday for their honeymoon in Hawaii. But before Sybil had even had time to enjoy the gentle ocean breeze, she saw the news about the company's new collection.

Diana still didn't know what had happened yet, nor did she know how to reply to Sybil.

"Sybil, I'll call you later. For now, just enjoy your vacation."

Diana tried to sound relaxed, afraid that the mother-to-be would get stressed.

However, Sybil could feel something was wrong.

"No. I'll be back tonight."

"No, no, no, please don't interrupt your trip."

"Are you guys able to solve the problem?" Sybil asked.

She was responsible for the William Group designs. Now such a big problem had occurred. Could they manage without herself and Ken?

Finally, Brian grabbed the phone and said, "Sybil, you're not as important as you think. Don't worry about this. Enjoy your vacation." Without waiting for Sybil's answer, Brian hung up the phone.

Although she knew Brian just didn't want her honeymoon to be ruined, Sybil still couldn't help being angry about his reaction. She tried to call back immediately.

Fortunately, Ken used all his skills and managed to calm her down.

Eventually, he convinced her to stay and enjoy the vacation.
