Chapter 89 Sense of Formality

Puzzled, Claire opened the folder to find it was filled with property

transfer agreements as well as share transfer agreements. The total net worth of everything being transferred was in the billions.

She immediately had a feeling that Sean intended to knock her out with

She suddenly remembered something she had forgotten about.

She snuck a glance at Sean before answering the call as softly as she possibly could. “Mr. Smith.”

Mr. Smith’s fawning voice echoed from the phone. “We’ll be having our wrap party tonight at The Regalia. Have you … asked Mr. Vanderbilt about it?
