The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1764

Robin just nodded, grinning like a Cheshire cat. “Of course”

The others remained silent, clearly affected by the situation.

Everyone was eager to see their businesses thrive and prosper. They wanted to get along with the Harpers, but they were even more eager to maintain good relations with the Obsidian Corporation

In this dog–eat–dog world, everyone wanted to ally themselves with the truly powerful They were well aware of the Harper’s and Obsidian’s rivalry and secretly delighted in it. As long as the two powerhouses didn’t join forces and leave them in the dust, they were more than happy to see them at odds. And they were trying to play both ends against the middle, hoping to manoeuvre smoothly between the two giants

In this world, might was night and connections were everything Building relationships was crucial not only in politics but also in business Otherwise, there wouldn’t be departments of foreign affairs and PR departments in corporations c2

Take Damon, for instance Even though he didn’t have much to his name, he managed to snag Ms Summers of Starlight International and hence, managed to land a spot in the prestigious Global Economic Summit

No one expected that the Harpers would extend an olive branch to the Obsidian Corporation today

Such a pity

Everyone’s thoughts were all over the place, their gaze shifting to Damon Although no words were spoken, the looks exchanged were clear as day

It was common knowledge that the patriarch of the Harper family had recently held a press conference that sounded like he was severing ties with Damon. However, judging by his reaction today, he clearly wasn’t ready to let go of his grandson

His every word and action showed his concern for Damon. Although his words were often laced with sarcasm, they did reveal a certain stance Since he still considered Damon his grandson everyone had witnessed Damon openly offending Mr. Azriel.

Mr. Aznel didn’t reject the idea of negotiating with the Harpers after the summit. So the sincerity of his words was anyone’s guess.

Everyone understood this and there was no way Robin couldn’t see through it. After a moment of contemplation, Robin took a few steps forward and spoke to Damon “Damon, you’re aware that your grandfather’s actions were driven by his high expectations of you No matter what, you’re still a Harper Since the Harper family might form a frendly relationship with Obsidian, I believe Mr. Aznel won’t hold it against the Harper family if you apologize to him for your earlier actions Everyone nodded in agreement. That made sense. If the two families wanted to collaborate, it was only night for Damon to swallow his pride and apologize to the CEO of Obsidian

Damon furrowed his brows and shot a cold glance at Azriel, who seemed to be enjoying the show

Chloe, however, was amused by Robin’s words “Has the Harper family become so humble just for a successful cooperation with Obsidian? Are they so afraid the deal might fall through that they re making the guy they kicked out apologize?”

Upon hearing this, Robin’s brows knitted together ‘Damon offended Mr. Azriel because of you, Ms. Summers

Chice raised an eyebrow “is that so? But I see no need to apologize”

“You

“Damon, if you still consider yourself a Harper, then go apologize to Mr Azriel Presley finally spoke, his icy gaze fixed on Damon. If you’re still upset about my past actions, I admit that I let my emotions get the best of me I could apologize to you if you want. But today, you must apologize to Mr. Azriel

Indeed, he didn’t want to lose his grandson. Some of his past actions were indeed driven by anger. When he had cooled down, he realized that he had been too impulsive

Now was the perfect opportunity. He could show Damon what it felt like to bow down to the powerful, and also find a reason to apologize for his past fictions.

Damon was still his grandson He could not afford to lose his grandson over a woman Otherwise, he would be the only loser

Nathan rolled his eyes “Grandpa, it’s the Harper family who wants to cozy up to Obsidian, not my brother. Since you still consider him your grandson, have you ever thought that your decision is no different from begging Obsidian for mercy? How desperate is our family to stoop so low just to cooperate with Obsidian? Aren’t you feel ashamed?”

Presley shot him a furious glance Keep your mouth shut if you don’t understand anything! Does he even have any dignity left? Look at him, he’s a laughing I’m doing him a favour by acknowledging him as a Harper He still wants to be ungrateful and act against me?”

This old man really had a high opinion of himself Nathan was so frustrated that he didn’t bother responding

That woman is carrying Mr. Azriel’s child, and you’re still in denial. How does it feel right now? is it pleasant?”

Aznel, who had been silent till now couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow at the turn of events What in the world was going on? Chloe was carrying his child?

He glanced at the woman in Damon’s arms, his face turning ashen But he had to admit that she was a stunner tonight
