Chapter 47
Gregory carefully weighed the pros and cons.
Although he was reluctant to concede, he recognized that times had evolved.
Even if Melvin were to demand a pound of flesh from him, he had to wear a smile and agree to it.
“Melvin, you’re right. You have a far-reaching vision! Now, as long as our children are content, I’ll support whatever they ask of me.”
Gregory was fully aware that Melvin could not avoid being associated with the Xander Group now that Marissa had married into the Xander family.
It would also be advantageous for the Coleman family’s strategic planning if Daniel Xander were to assume the role of CEO, especially considering Daniel Xander would become their son-in-law.
That was how the marriage between Daniel Xander and Marissa was eventually arranged.
Melvin and Gregory had never spoken directly to each other, but the former had heard certain criticisms of the latter’s character.
Therefore, during the negotiations, Melvin suggested that the marriage would not proceed until Daniel Xander took on the role of CEO. The details of the wedding. arrangements could be settled and communicated at a later time.
After the negotiations were concluded, Gregory hastily returned to Norham with Daniel Xander.
Meanwhile, Lucia was busy arranging a celebratory feast at home.
With the matter resolved, she could finally get a peaceful night’s rest..
She had grown weary of those days filled with anxiety and tension.
However, she hadn’t expected Gregory to be in such a gloomy mood after the long wait. Daniel Xander went straight upstairs as soon as he came in.
“Gregory, did everything go smoothly?” Lucia couldn’t contain her curiosity any longer. Lucia also felt a little disappointed when she heard what had happened in Baykeep. It appeared she would have to conform to Daniel Xander’s preferences in the future.

She had put in so much effort, but in the end, Daniel Xander had emerged as the ultimate winner.
She couldn’t help but wonder if that had all been a part of Daniel Xander’s plan.
Lucia had consistently tried to undermine Daniel Xander, trying to block his path to becoming the heir.

Her goal was to clear the way for Kristin.
In particular, learning about Larson Corporation in Dellmoor, where the eldest daughter of the Larson family had taken on the role of successor, only pumped up her determination.
Recently, Lucia had tightened her control over Kristin.
She enrolled her in numerous courses, believing she was being a devoted mother.
What she did not know was that Kristin did not appreciate her efforts.
Kristin was simply living a carefree life, spending hefty tuition fees and daily expenses without any real commitment to her studies.
In the meantime, Christopher returned to the Levine Group in Norham after his legal loss.
Ivy was already waiting for him in his office.
Initially, she had offered to accompany Christopher, but he had declined.
Ivy was eagerly waiting for him and always wanted to be by his side, especially on public occasions.
She wanted to make her presence known so that the world would recognize her as the unique woman by Christopher’s side.
Nonetheless, much to her surprise, her beloved returned with a gloomy expression.
As Christopher walked into his office, he noticed the young woman sitting on the couch.
He furrowed his brow subconsciously, as he had always disliked having his personal space encroached upon.
It seemed someone was about to incur his displeasure.
Christopher’s assistant had initially tried to stop Ivy from entering, but Ivy had asserted her connection to Christopher.

The junior assistant couldn’t make a decision, and Felix wasn’t there.
So Ivy had managed to get into the office.
“Christopher, you’re back. How did it go today? Was everything all right?” Ivy promptly rose and approached Christopher.
She stood in front of him, examining his countenance. “Why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell?”
She then extended her two thumbs as if to offer him a temple massage.
Christopher subconsciously moved his head away when he saw Ivy’s delicate hand approaching, and he quickly made his way to his seat.
“It’s nothing, probably just a little tired from traveling back and forth,” Christopher was different when it came to Ivy.
Even though he didn’t want her to get too close to him, he still considered her to be a very close person.
Ivy’s thumbs were in the air, and her pupils were slightly dilated with a hint of disbelief, wondering what was wrong with Christopher.
She remembered that he had appreciated her massaging him when he had felt tired in the past.
In fact, she had even learned from a mentor specifically for that purpose.
She had to find out what was happening.
Then she left the office and went straight to Felix’s office.
“What did you just say? We lost the case today and had to pay a who pping 3 billion dollars in compensation?” Ivy seemed shocked and bombarded Felix with a series of questions.
No wonder, she rarely saw Christopher in such a state.
“But isn’t Earna the trump card of the industry?”
Felix was careful not to be negligent, aware of Ivy’s special position in Christopher’s heart. He provided a detailed report of the day’s events.
In truth, he hadn’t been present at the trial either and had learned everything from Earna’s grievances.
Despite the bad news, Ivy couldn’t help but feel a glimmer of happiness.
Chapter 47
That indicated that Christopher’s recent aloofness and detachment from her were solely due to professional setbacks.
It appeared visiting the company today was not a wise decision.
She had thought the case was almost a sure thing and wanted to be part of the celebration.
