Flash Marriage to a Stunning CEO (Alistair and Richard)

Chapter 198 Richard and His Mom

The expo was packed.

This international tech fair, co-hosted by the New York municipal government and top corporations from around the world, had drawn massive attention thanks to the presence of high-end tech giants. Attendees included elite executives and senior engineers, people most only ever saw in financial news or online headlines.

Compared to these industry veterans, Caroline was undeniably young. But that didn't mean she lacked credibility. Still, she'd rarely appeared in public before this, and very few people even knew she was the president of Vireon Technologies. In a sea of powerful figures, her presence should've blended in like a drop of water disappearing into the ocean.

But she stood out anyway as her looks were too striking. No matter where she went, she turned heads. And with Alistair by her side, elegant and impossibly handsome, they made a stunning pair.

They hadn't even made it far into the venue when people nearby began to notice them.

Richard was also making the rounds at the expo, accompanied by his mother, Theresa Morgan.

It didn't take long for his dashing appearance to attract the attention of many women in the crowd.

This expo wasn't just a showcase for innovative products. It was also a rare opportunity for the Morgan family to network, strike new deals, and claw their way out of a business crisis.

Theresa looked radiant, every movement exuding the poised elegance of a high- society matron. Just by appearances, no one would've guessed she'd once been the infamous mistress who drove a wife to her death to climb into power.

She was deep in conversation with the head of a foreign tech company, Henry Bourne, a charming executive who smiled and nodded in clear agreement with everything she was saying. If nothing went wrong, they'd be signing a contract by the end of the day.

Theresa casually brushed a hand through her glamorous curls and shot Richard a look, one that all but said it was already in the bag.

Richard beamed.
