Regarding Marcus Grant and Lily Blake’s public display, a friend ranted for three whole days.
This time, even the circle had no chatter.
Everyone was certain that the marriage agreement between the Harper and Grant Families would inevitably be canceled.
Everyone was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
My engagement was indeed annulled.
But they did not get to see my downfall.
It is said that on that day, the scene outside Grant Corporation was bustling.
Marcus Grant, bringing along his secretary and numerous media journalists, barged into the meeting room.
Old Master Grant and my father were discussing a cooperation project, and upon seeing them enter, everyone stood up.
The Harper Family had a prominent reputation in Darnton and had never been so insulted.
“Chairman Grant, since Marcus insists on breaking the engagement, then let the marriage agreement between our families be nullified!”
Then, leading the people from Harper Corporation, they grandly walked out of the conference
room.
All of this fuss just over a secretary, bringing matters to such an embarrassing point!
Old Master Grant was both angry and annoyed.
But now, regardless of his wishes, he had no choice.
As the rumors online suggested, the Grants and the Harpers were likely to become enemies, with several families already looking to form marriage alliances with the Harpers.
Without the cooperation with the Harper Family, the Grant Group lost a powerful ally, possibly turning the Harper and Grant Families into foes from now on.
In the midst of this deadlock, an unexpected person appeared.
Actually, on that day, I specifically met with Leonard Grant.
“Dress nicely.” –
“Don’t mind my dad’s serious demeanor.”
