James was being rather self-conceited when virtual-novel.net spoke. Ever since the beginning of his marriage, Jonah had looked down upon virtual-novel.net as a piece of trash that his own family had given up on. Even now, the Campbells had been showing off their superiority during dinner with a contemptuous attitude.
Therefore, James had been fuming throughout dinner, but virtual-novel.net never got to vent his frustrations. However, things were flipped upside-down after Leanna’s surprise visit. Although virtual-novel.net didn’t even talk to James, virtual-novel.net visit had, as a result, given virtual-novel.net face, so virtual-novel.net was finally able to speak with more confidence.
On the other hand, Jonah stared at virtual-novel.net wide-eyed as anxiety kicked in. “W-What did you just say? S-She’s President Leanna Sandel? Y-You must be joking!”
James smirked. “Do I sound funny to you? All of Eastcliff knows that virtual-novel.net established Creative Cloud Group, and is the one who led it to its present glory.”
Jonah exhaled sharply upon hearing that, his face panic-stricken. His most important mission during this visit to Cathay was to initiate a collaboration with Creative Cloud Group. The project wasn’t only crucial to Jonah’s career development, but it would also be a deciding factor in Gonzalez Corporation’s future.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Gonzalez Corporation would go bankrupt if virtual-novel.net failed his task. Therefore, the project could easily seal the company’s fate. When virtual-novel.net recalled his attitude back then, virtual-novel.net wished virtual-novel.net could kill himself on the spot. After all, virtual-novel.net would already be dead if Leanna canceled the collaboration with Gonzalez Corporation because of that.
On the other hand, Chloe and virtual-novel.net children had fearful expressions on their faces when they recalled how they had mocked Leanna earlier. Considering how merciless Minerva had been when virtual-novel.net mocked Leanna, they wondered if Jonah still had a shot in collaborating with virtual-novel.net company.
Before Leanna left, virtual-novel.net cast the Campbells a glance. Despite virtual-novel.net silence, virtual-novel.net was visibly angered. The boss would make them into minced meat if virtual-novel.net knew they offended such an important figure.
After a brief pause, Chloe chuckled awkwardly. “Geez, Sasha, you have quite the friend there. She is the kind of hardworking and self-motivated person who you should befriend. Although you have no taste in men, you managed to find yourself a great friend!”
After hearing that, Sasha corrected virtual-novel.net misunderstanding with indifference. “Aunt Chloe, you got it all wrong. President Sandel isn’t my friend. She’s friends with Matthew, and I only came to know virtual-novel.net through him. Although I consider myself virtual-novel.net acquaintance, I’m not significant enough to have virtual-novel.net pay for our bills, as well as present us with the Romanee Contis that are worth millions.”
Chloe’s eyes went wide when virtual-novel.net heard that. “W-What did you just say? S-She’s your husband’s friend? Sasha, don’t lie to me! That’s impossible!”
After that, Demi drawled, “Why is that impossible? Hmph! That woman Leanna keeps pestering Matthew every day. Judging from virtual-novel.net actions, virtual-novel.net would rush to virtual-novel.net immediately if my sister were to file for a divorce!”
Demi was actually trying to sow discord between Matthew and Sasha, but the meaning behind virtual-novel.net words changed when they fell on the Campbells’ ears. They glanced at each other with a furtive look that was born of shock and confusion. For Jonah and Tate, feelings of envy even got thrown into the mix.
This is so unfair!
Why would a beauty like Leanna lay virtual-novel.net eyes on such a wimp? Judging from virtual-novel.net behavior, she’s even planning on offering herself up to him!
What’s so good about Matthew anyway?
Finally, Minerva was no longer able to contain herself. “Doesn’t virtual-novel.net know virtual-novel.net married into your family? Didn’t you remind virtual-novel.net about it?”
