The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1416

The news was everywhere, and naturally, the Harper family caught wind of it. Presley heaved a sigh and switched off the TV. Meanwhile, Robin was fixated on the news online, his gaze intense. He was reminiscing about the private discussion he had with Cole and Wendy before they left.

If he was willing, the Alonso family was ready to back him up fully to become the Chairman of the Harper Group.

Was he willing? Ha, they were no greenhorns. How could Cole not know his thoughts?

Although the Alonso family was in a pickle right now, their ties with the royal family of Y Country could probably help them weather the storm. If the Alonso family could support him, it would be the icing on the cake.

After mulling it over, Robin got up and left for the Harper family’s house.

Upon seeing Presley, Robin cut to the chase, “Dad, I reckon, I should be the next Chairman of the Harper Group.”

Having been through thick and thin, Presley had no particular reaction to Robin’s declaration. He simply looked at him with sharp, cold eyes. “After all these years of biding your time, you finally can’t hold back anymore, huh?”

Robin slowly sat down, calmly saying, “Isn’t it normal for me to have such thoughts? When you handed over the entirety of the Harper Group to Damon, who had just come of age, I managed to hold back my feelings, which was beyond my own imagination. I held back for more than a decade. The reason is clear, I couldn’t find fault with Damon. He has always managed the Harper family well.

“But that was on the premise that he was wholly committed to the Harper Group, with no distractions. But now, things are different. You know it, he’s just like his father, Royce, going against the principle you’ve taught since he was young. They’re smitten by women, and they’re obsessed. You were right, once a man is infatuated with a woman, he can easily be fooled. Damon is no longer fit to be a competent family head, isn’t he?

“Are you comfortable entrusting the vast Harper family to a fickle–minded person?

“If Damon was still the Damon of the past, I wouldn’t have come to you today. So, dad, all my intentions are for the good of the Harper family.” Robin’s long speech was met with Presley’s prolonged silence,
