Jilted Bride 225

Chapter 225

Andrew's gaze remained fixed on the three people who had just taken their seats in the front row, unable to snap out of his

daze.

He still couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Eliot, are you sure that was Mark? Sinclair Group's Mark?" Andrew asked, his tone laced with disbelief.

"What else could it be? And those two people you mentioned earlier... did you even get your facts straight? Honestly, I shouldn't have brought you along. "Mark only ever acts that deferential to Kenneth. This is the first time I've seen him treat someone else the same way? Eliot replied, his voice filled with regret. Eliot couldn't help but feel that bringing Andrew here had been a mistake. Otherwise, he wouldn't have risked offending

Cody chuckled inwardly at their astonished expressions.

"Got it," Cody replied quickly, handing over the documents.

With that, Cody felt a wave of confidence. Ophelia had to be fully determined to win.

Mark's tone carried a hint of difficulty.

"The Huxley family has shown up. The Huxley family has strong ties to the political circles and seems determined this project as well," Mark said.

With Kenneth absent today, the Huxley family was unlikely to give Mark any special consideration.

Since Zayn took over, he hadn't shown the same wariness toward the Sinclair family that Michael had, clearly harboring other plans.
