Chapter 956 The Big Shot Behind Karami

Chapter 956 The Big Shot Behind Karami

Karami's global debut was held at the Capital in Northfield for a fashion release event. The influence of high-end luxury brands was undeniable in any upper-class circle, regardless of country. Tonight's banquet invited influential leaders from various fields, with a small but highly prestigious guest list.

In the afternoon, Susan arrived early at the Capital with Manuel by her side. She went to Oscar's courtyard first. Because of Salem, she had been visiting Oscar's place more frequently lately. However, every time she visited, there was always an uncomfortable feeling inside of her that Hannah's death had something to do with Oscar. But seeing how poorly Oscar was doing gave her a strange sense of balance. Sometimes she felt twisted inside.

"Auntie!" Una was watching TV in the living room and ran over excitedly when she saw Susan approaching. Manuel instinctively protected Susan in his arms just in case Una accidentally bumped into her. "Una." Susan patted Una's head and asked, "Where is Sal?"

No matter how likeable Una was, Salem would always be number one in Susan's heart.

"Sal is still doing homework." Replied Una with a childish voice, "The teacher hasn't finished class yet."

"Oh," said Susan softly.

Oscar naturally had different approaches to educating his two children-he trained Salem strictly as an heir while letting Una grow up carefree like a little princess. Although boys should take on more responsibilities than girls according to traditional values, seeing how much work Salem had to do at such a young age made Susan feel uneasy inside. Why couldn't they take it slow?

Susan sat on the sofa feeling restless. Every minute passing made her want to rescue Salem from his teacher even more urgently.

"Don't worry," Manuel could see what was going through Susan's mind and reassured her gently, "My cousin knows how to arrange homework reasonably without being too hard on him." Susan snorted, with eyes rolling towards Manuel sarcastically.

"Of course, you're speaking up for your family."

"Sal is my nephew." Replied Manuel helplessly. Compared to what they had gone through back then when they were younger himself included, what Salem had now was nothing compared to their past experiences under his Cousin's training methods

"Oh hey! You guys came so early today!" Theodore greeted them loudly from near the entrance door. Susan looked up and saw him dressed in a sharp suit. He always dressed like this for important occasions. "Nice outfit?" Theodore walked over to Susan, showing off a smug look on his face.

Susan stared at him for a moment. This guy was becoming more and more flamboyant.

"Karami's haute couture?!"

When it came to fashion brands, Susan knew almost everything.

"Not bad taste!" Theodore was in a good mood.

"This suit hasn't been released yet?!"

To her surprise, this guy had gotten his hands on it already.

"It's being released today. Karami sent it over early this morning." Theodore was feeling pretty pleased with himself.

Susan was speechless. This guy had caught the attention of Karami. Karami would never flatter anyone based on their status or position. The owner behind the scenes of Karami was said to have an extremely high status and was rumoured to be from some royal family in another country, who was received by important people wherever he went-whether he chose to meet them or not depended entirely on his mood. "Are you attending the Karami release party tonight too?" asked Susan.

"They've already sent me clothes. I have no choice but to show my face." Theodore continued boasting about himself.

Susan rolled her eyes.

"Oh yeah, Oscar will be there too." Said Theodore as he basked in self-admiration again.

"Oscar will personally attend?!" Susan was shocked once again.

"Oscar is a charmer. Isn't it natural for him to attend such events?" sneered Theodore as he looked down upon Susan.

"But isn't he busy with work all day long?"

"Don't even iron men need rest?"

"So tell me, is the rumour true that there's an astonishing background behind the owner of Karami?" asked curious Susan, who always loved gossiping.

"When do you think I'll tell you something like that?"

"Theodore, you're not straightforward enough!"

"Why don't you ask Manuel instead?" he shifted the blame onto Manuel.

"He knows?!"

"He knows everything." Theodore laughed.

As someone who could access confidential websites of a country without any problem whatsoever, Manuel could know everything he wanted.

Susan turned her head towards him.

Manuel pursed his lips. He had been completely sold out by Theodre's words.

"Why didn't you tell me?!" asked Susan.

Manuel knew but didn't tell her anything, which led her around asking various gossip questions. As Susan was lost in thought about gossip, she wondered if Manuel was mocking her beside her.

"I only know a little bit." Manuel began to make excuses, "Besides, I haven't been involved in many national events, so the information I know might be wrong."

"Manuel, are you deliberately hiding something from me?" Susan got cross.

"It's not that big of a deal!"

"Manuel!" Susan raised her voice.

"Lower your voice, the baby might be sleeping," Manuel said.

"Manuel!" Susan's voice got louder again.

Una, who was watching TV next to them, turned her head curiously at them.

Manuel glanced at Theodore, who looked like he was enjoying their argument. Manuel surrendered and said, "Well, it's not a simple background."

"How complicated is it?" Susan asked curiously.

"It's just like the rumours say. It's royalty."

"What country?"

"Jolencami."

"Jolencami? Karami? I should have thought of that earlier!" Susan slapped herself on the forehead.

"So who is the boss? Is it the king?!"

"The queen," Manuel replied.

"Queen Carol?!" exclaimed Susan.

That influential woman on an international scale, could often see news about her internationally. She had done a lot of global charity work, something related to women's rights, medical internationalization, cultural heritage protection etc. Anyway, foreign media had high praise for her.

Manuel nodded his head.

"No wonder every time we see her attending an event she looks fashionably overdone. She turns out to be Karami's behind-the-scenes boss!" exclaimed Susan as if she had just discovered some juicy gossip. "Don't tell anyone else." Manuel said seriously, "Few people know this secret and few countries are aware of this."

"How did you replace out?"

Theodore laughed beside them.

How did he replace out? Of course, he hacked into their internal website to replace out.

"Oscar told me." Manuel made up an excuse.

"Oscar is also such a gossip." Susan summed up.

Theodore felt that living as simple-minded as Susan wasn't easy either.
