Quinten rarely used to take Britney to attend such business gatherings before. After all, in his mind, his daughter was a proper young lady, and it was enough for her to participate in women's parties. She wouldn't enjoy these business gatherings and celebrations that were full of the smell of money.
However, now it's different when it comes to helping my daughter in the mall. Since she has already been involved in this industry and is determined to do well, it's time to take her out and show her the scene in the mall.
The Jacobson Group's 50th anniversary celebration invited most of the upper-class celebrities and business giants. Anyone who was influential and prominent was within the scope of this celebration's invitation. It could be said that it was not so much a celebration as it was a way to win people's hearts.
People in the mall, who were struggling and crawling, also took this opportunity to build good relationships. Each of them carried their own thou
I haven't seen Karsyn at the moment, which is a bit strange."That girl, she disappeared in the blink of an eye! But judging by how excited she was, I reckon she went off with Franklin..." Glenn said as if he wasn't talking about his own daughter.However, it is true that Glenn did not like Franklin.Britney knew from the beginning...In Glenn's eyes, Franklin's focus on his career was too heavy, and he couldn't provide happiness to Karsyn. Both Glenn and Quinten shared the same mindset, prioritizing their daughter's well-being when looking for a son-in-law. If one's focus on their career is too heavy, and they are solely dedicated to it, then the balance of life will inevitably lean towards their own career rather than their family.For this, Glenn even went to talk to Britney, asking her to persuade Karsyn more.Karsyn only had Franklin in her mind."Quinten, I envy you for having a well-behaved daughter like Britney. Look at me, ev
Karsyn lost her mother when she was young, so Glenn would always take her to various gatherings. Gradually, she also started enjoying these gatherings, after all, they were lively...Sometimes, Glenn would take her, and she would bring Andreas along. Gradually, Andreas grew up and became wild, and the game bar became his true love. Only she would still accompany Glenn to these gatherings.There is actually another reason, which is that she didn't want to see the old man attending the gathering alone. Everyone else has a companion, but he is always alone. Since he doesn't have a female companion, as his daughter, she naturally wants to accompany him.In contrast to Franklin's father, who immediately took a mistress after his wife's death, she (referring to Franklin's wife) was always alone. To be honest, she also worried for her father.Turning back to the topic, because Karsyn often accompanied Glenn to attend gatherings, and Glenn was a peaceful person w
The people who came to participate in the celebration were counted and verified by the head of the Jacobson Group. All those who were invited were present. The journalists and media were arranged by the responsible person to the adjacent venue, where they took a short break and had dinner.In terms of winning people's hearts, the Jacobson Group did a very good job.At that moment, a black car suddenly stopped outside the hotel, and a man got out of the car. Despite his young face, he appeared quite arrogant.Geovanni, dressed in a sharp suit, looked like a business elite. Just as he was about to enter, he was suddenly stopped by a staff member."Sir, please present your invitation!"Unexpectedly intercepted, Geovanni buttoned up his suit and said with a displeased expression, "No invitation! Go inside and tell the person in charge of the Jacobson Group that I am Geovanni, the sole heir of the Hammond Group, the leading company of Goldmoor. Once the
Ernesto was pulled aside by Augustus, the chairman of the Jacobson Group, to discuss the recent issue of their company's goods being seized.Elena naturally could not participate.When she saw Karsyn in the venue, her lips curved, and she walked towards the well-dressed Karsyn.One was enchanting and alluring, the other was playful and adorable. The two stood together, representing two extremes, neither one inferior to the other.Karsyn's blatant gaze at her cleavage made Elena, who was also a woman, feel a bit embarrassed. Her face slightly changed, and she turned to the side. "Ms. Melton, you have quite a sense of humor." She then forced a smile and changed the subject. "I saw through the news earlier that Mr. Schwartz publicly announced his romantic relationship with you. Congratulations."Karsyn smiled and said, "Thank you, I accepted your congratulations. Is there anything else?"Elena was initially puzzled by Elena's nonsensical attemp
Britney calmly locked eyes with Conrad.In the past, what she looked forward to the most was meeting this man. Her heart would be filled with joy every time they met. The rest of the time, she almost always anticipated, anticipated meeting him.But now, when we actually meet, it makes her unable to express her disgust.She really didn't understand why Conrad kept bothering her. Couldn't he forget about her? Then why, in the first place, did he have a physical relationship with Stephanie?She wouldn't ask these questions out loud. The first time she saw them rolling on the bed, she didn't ask, let alone now.Even if Stephanie seduced him first, in her heart, she expected her partner to be able to resist temptation. Clearly, Conrad was not qualified in this aspect."Britney, you looked really beautiful tonight," Conrad sincerely complimented, a hint of astonishment flickering in his dark eyes.Her appearance exudes an extraordinary nobi
As he had initially anticipated, Manuel would be Franklin's formidable opponent."No need for you to remind me," Franklin heard Alexzander's words, without any expression.He walked towards the inner court.The battle between Manuel and others, he did not take it lightly.The Jacobson Group's 50th anniversary celebration reached its climax.The music on the scene stopped, and the host on the stage spoke fluently. The Jacobson Group's fifty years of ups and downs, with the big screen behind her playing the Jacobson Group's journey from its humble beginnings as a small vendor to its current achievements.Next, the Chairman of the Jacobson Group, Augustus, took the stage to deliver a speech."Thank you to everyone present for attending the Jacobson Group's 50th anniversary celebration..."In fact, every enterprise has been built on the sweat of those who came before, achieving what it is today.It also touched Britney's hea
Although compared to Britney's proposal, this scene seemed a bit lackluster, it was still considered good for Franklin, who was not good at expressing emotions. Especially for Karsyn, she was completely moved and couldn't think of anything else. In her eyes and in her heart, there was only one man.Just as everyone was immersed in the atmosphere of Franklin proposing to Karsyn a moment ago, a man dressed in black stood in the corner.Through the cracks between people and the words heard, the whole process was seen."Ernesto..." Elena was present, so naturally she knew and noticed the profound icy change in Ernesto's gaze.A woman's intuition has always been accurate, and Ernesto is no exception to Karsyn. Moreover, being able to come here today is all thanks to that woman.But now that woman has been proposed to by another man, and she is madly in love with him, posing no threat to her."If you were to stay here..."Ernesto had not fi
Seeing his cold and rigid face, she disregarded the pain in her wrist and desired to kiss those emotionless lips.But Ernesto stepped back and avoided it."Elena, then I will tell you clearly, whether it's you or any other woman! I would be like this... I wouldn't develop feelings for any woman..."Ernesto's face was filled with a thin anger."Does it include Karsyn too?" Elena persisted, moving closer and asking.The distance between the two was very close, and her body was pressed against his tall figure.The enticing scent of perfume on her body, with a hint of bewitching aroma, filled the air.Ernesto's deep brown eyes narrowed as he coldly spoke, "Including her.""Why?" She didn't understand why Ernesto would reject otherwomen so decisively.Shaking off her hand, Ernesto did not answer her but said, "Leave the things I want behind. I don't want to see you when I come out again."Without saying another w
Skyler had fallen asleep, but her mind remained alert. After all, Raiden had left a psychological scar on her today.As soon as Raiden mentioned being hungry, she couldn't help but complain to herself. He hadn't felt hungry earlier, and now, suddenly, he was.But despite the resentment in her heart, she didn’t dare voice it. After all, he was the young master, and she was just a servant..."Should I heat it up for you?" Since this "ancestor" had called for her, it was clear he wouldn’t do it himself. And it was late, so the other family members had likely already gone to sleep.Sure enough, the young master kicked his feet and said, "Should I do it myself?" If he was going to do it himself, why bother calling her? The real reason was that he couldn’t sleep and, seeing her sleep soundly beside him, a psychological urge stirred within him.If he couldn’t sleep, neither should she. It was a kind of unhealthy mentality.He wanted to wake her up
Skyler finally had the chance to observe the entire room. The decor was simple yet refined.A large sky-blue bed, a desk with a desktop LCD computer, and some model decorations—all expensive just at a glance. It matched his unruly personality well. However, it was clear he didn’t come home often; everything here still looked brand new."Where are you sleeping? Why are you asking me?"Since his father let her move in, he must have arranged a place for her."Do you have an extra blanket? I’ll sleep on the floor."The bed was big enough for two people, and she had slept with him before—otherwise, how would she have gotten pregnant? But at this moment, she didn’t dare sleep with him. She hadn’t forgotten the way he had looked downstairs, as if he wanted to devour her alive.She didn’t dare provoke him again, afraid that if she shared a bed with him, she might not even know how she died.She knew t
"Do you think you've found yourself a backer now? Is that why you feel so important?"Raiden’s tone was full of sarcasm.He looked exactly like a little kid afraid of losing his father's love.It’s often said that women mature faster than men, and Skyler was one of those women. She could see exactly what Raiden was upset about, and a smile tugged at her lips."No, Mr.Calderon! My biggest backer is you," Skyler admitted her mistake.Like hell he’d believe that! The innocence she had before was completely gone now.Raiden let out a cold snort and sneered, "Skyler, I didn't expect your appetite to be this big. First, you took my house, and now, in the blink of an eye, you've managed to squeeze a fortune out of my dad. Did your brain suddenly become enlightened? You’re making money at an impressive speed!""Mr.Calderon, I did go back on my word in this matter. I’m sorry! Here’s the key to the house you
Every parent, when talking about their child, always wears the kindest smile. Frankie was no exception. And when he thought about the fact that he would soon become a grandfather, his mood improved even more.Feeling good, he couldn’t help but chat a little more with Skyler.As Frankie flipped through old photos of Raiden’s childhood and talked about his younger days, Skyler truly saw how adorable he had been as a child.Uncle Calderon wasn’t lying—Mr.Calderon had been handsome since he was little.Big eyes, double eyelids, a high nose bridge, rosy lips, pearly white teeth, and fair skin—all combined with that charmingly arrogant expression…Skyler subconsciously placed her hand on her belly, wondering if the baby inside would be just as good-looking. If it were a girl and took after Mr.Calderon, she certainly wouldn’t be unattractive."Master, dinner is ready!" a servant came forward and announced.
"She should take a good look at herself! She doesn't want to marry me?" Raiden shouted.Who did she think she was? And who was he? Since when did a woman have the right to reject him?Since he was old enough to understand things, he had been surrounded by countless women, all vying for his attention. Which woman didn't want to marry him?Raiden sneered internally. This woman was definitely playing hard to get in front of his father, trying to win his favor so that he would pressure him into marrying her.I didn't see this coming.Skyler, so you dare play tricks on me!Skyler shivered slightly under Raiden’s sharp gaze. Was it a crime now to not want to marry him?Frankie stepped forward and kicked his own son. "And you should take a good look at yourself!"That kick wasn’t light. Raiden gasped in pain and quickly pulled his leg back to clutch it.Damn it!He was almost thirty, yet his old man still kicked him with
When Raiden walked in, he actually found that woman in his house!Without a word, he rushed up to her, grabbed her wrist, and started dragging her outside with large strides."Mr.Calderon, what are you doing?" Caught off guard by his strength, Skyler’s wrist throbbed in pain as she frowned and couldn't help but cry out."Don't ask, just come with me!"As soon as Raiden received a call from the person he had arranged to take Skyler to the hospital, he rushed back immediately.He had sent her to get an abortion, and she was already on the operating table—yet somehow, the old trickster in his family had intercepted her! Just thinking about how the plan was almost completed but was suddenly interrupted made him incredibly frustrated.How could he not know what that old fox was scheming?For the past few years, every time he returned home, the old man would pester him about marriage. Eventually, he got so fed up that he outrigh
Frankie was setting up Skyler, but unfortunately, she was too young and inexperienced to realize it. She had never encountered such schemes before, let alone faced an old fox like Frankie.At first, Skyler had no idea who had decided against her abortion. It wasn’t until she had spoken with Frankie for a while that she finally understood—it was the old master himself who wanted to keep his grandchild.She had already promised Raiden that she would terminate the pregnancy, and she had struggled internally for a long time. But in the end, her heart leaned toward keeping the child.“However, I have three conditions.”“Go ahead, go ahead…” Frankie was so delighted that she had agreed that he would have accepted a hundred conditions if necessary.“First, after the child is born, I want to be able to visit them whenever I wish. But you can rest assured—I will only be visiting the child and will have
Raiden’s Father...Hearing Frankie's words, Skyler couldn't help but look up. He wasn’t like what she had imagined. The middle-aged man in front of her was well-maintained, looking energetic and full of vitality. His smile was warm and friendly. There were indeed some resemblances between him and Raiden—he must have been quite a charming man in his younger years.Seeing her subtly relax, Frankie chuckled, “What do you think? Not quite what you imagined, right?”Having her thoughts seen through so easily, Skyler blushed, feeling slightly embarrassed. “It’s a bit different from what I expected,” she admitted.“Sit down and talk. I’m not used to looking up at people while speaking.” Frankie deliberately said this, knowing that otherwise, she wouldn’t sit down.Just as he had anticipated, Skyler realized that standing while talking to someone like this was somewhat impolite. Beside
Skyler looked at the cold, sterile operating table, her steps heavy as she walked over and lay down with the nurse’s help. Staring at her still-flat stomach, she silently whispered to the tiny life inside her, "Baby, I'm sorry."He had been so well-behaved. She had heard that during the first three months of pregnancy, morning sickness was common, sometimes severe enough to make one feel like the world was spinning. Yet, she hadn’t experienced any of that—she felt just like a normal person. She knew her baby must be a very obedient child.Unfortunately, she had no ability to keep him. If she forced his birth, he would only suffer alongside her.So, I’m sorry. It’s because I’m not brave enough…She had never intended to keep this child, but that didn’t mean she had no feelings for him. He was, after all, her own flesh and blood."Miss Oneal, we’re going to administer the anesthesia now. Try to r
