All Chapters of Second Marriage to Mr. Rich: Chapter 631 - Chapter 640

"That's a great joke, Mr. Harrison," Hiram said while chuckling.Angeline smiled and said, "I take it this means Steele Group has big plans for the upcoming year, Mr. Steele Senior, seeing as you're inviting both the Scotts and Hoopers to have a piece of the pie. I suppose congratulations are in order! By the way, did Steele Group meet its goals for last year?"Harrison's expression turned sour. Evidently, Steele Group's achievements had fallen short of its targets last year."I'm six years younger than your grandfather, but at least we're from the same generation. Don't you think it's rude of you to speak to me like you're my elder, Ms. Lawson?" Harrison mocked. "I suppose things just aren't the same when Robert's blood doesn't run in your veins."Angeline was worried about Sean, so she hadn't been in the best mood before attending the conference. Harrison's mockery and provocation only made things worse. She didn't want to accept his behavior, but she forced herself to smile an

The younger members of the four most prominent families and the companies' senior executives were seated several tables away from the main table. Despite the distance, they all turned to look at the main table when Angeline stood up."What's the point of us gathering here, then? I don't think it's necessary for any of us at Lawson Global to attend this conference next year. Count us out," Angeline said.She turned to Nelson and Hiram. "Aside from the project we're already working on with Scott Incorporated, Lawson Global has four more critical projects lined up for next year. Mr. Lawson and I will meet with you at some other time to discuss the details."Then, she grabbed her bag and turned to leave, making it clear that she wasn't interested in playing games with them.Taylor, who was seated at the table designated for assistants, broke out in a cold sweat. He ran after her.He wondered about what was going on. Before attending the conference, he'd repeatedly reminded Angeline

If Angeline had literally flipped the table on Harrison, who knew what would've become of her reputation? She would eventually become the leader of Lawson Global, after all.Her plan to have Robert invite only the Scotts and Hoopers over would already be enough to tell the Steele family that things would change, whether in terms of the conference or the four prominent families' status in Krontos.As Angeline had mentioned over the phone, there would always be more money to make. Friends and enemies wouldn't remain that way forever.Krontos' four most prominent families had only banded together to ensure they would always be at the top of the pyramid. It was a strategy to prevent any newcomers from overtaking them. It was also a way to keep the difference in social status clear."You've always been good at making things sound better than they are!" Robert stomped his walking cane. "Well, you've convinced me. Once the conference is over, call Nelson and Hiram for me. I'll invite

Angeline looked at Sean with a hint of confusion. "That was your best opportunity to be free of the Lawson family. Why didn't you leave? Was it because you were worried about me? Or was it because of Lawson Global?""It's also because I told Mr. Lawson Senior I'd delay my return by another year. I want to wait until Lawson Global has steadied itself. There's still time before I need to go," Sean explained.He was worried Angeline would be in a challenging position if he were to leave without preparing Lawson Global as best as he could. If something were to happen to him so soon after Helen had been taken down, everyone would think Angeline had gotten rid of them because of their fight for the inheritance.Sean had decided against leaving at this juncture after considering the entire situation.Angeline fell deep into thought for a moment before pursing her lips and saying, "You should ask Brayden to come up here. I don't think you should delay this any longer. Take this opportuni

"Have a seat for now." Sean pulled out a chair for Brayden.Brayden pursed his lips, seemingly keeping his emotions at bay as he sat down. Soon, they started discussing Sean's plans to leave as they ate.Brayden was surprised to learn Angeline had talked Sean into using the accident to shed his identity as Sean Lawson. He'd thought she would cry while begging him to stay.Sean had left the hospital after the accident, so they could only use its aftereffects to cook up a story."We'll go with the second part of our original plan for this. I'll think of something for the medical records at the hospital. Meanwhile, I'll take you to our hospital tonight and arrange your sudden death."When questions are asked, I'll say you hit your head and had a brief moment of unconsciousness that you didn't tell the doctor about. So, your cause of death will be internal hemorrhage. Is that okay?" Brayden said."It's better to consult a doctor before proceeding with your plan. I'll head to the ol
