Beyond the Divorce novel Chapter 1111

After introducing his family, everyone finally took their seats.

Atlas remained aloof, his demeanor exuding an air of nobility that kept others at a distance.

Byron pulled out all the stops today, exhibiting seamless cooperation with Gabriel. I kept a close eye on Gabriel, wondering why he would betray Beatrice without hesitation and even add insult to injury.

Beatrice's mental health certification bore his signature, attesting to her supposed mental issues.

It was evident how despicable this man was. If I were to say that the individuals in front of us were a bunch of beasts, it wouldn't be an exaggeration at all.

I heard Byron ask Atlas, "Mr. Atlas, it seems you're making a substantial investment in Gerby."

Atlas gave a faint smile. "Gerby has always been my investment target. It's just business."

"Mr. Atlas, do you have any thoughts on collaboration?" Byron couldn't contain his excitement.

"We have our partners in every region. Of course, it depends on the nature of the project. Not every project requires collaboration. My principle is that I won't seek a partnership if I can handle it myself.

"But some projects require collective effort. After all, local partners are more familiar with the region, especially in dealing with local authorities. They often have superior conditions compared to us."

Atlas's response was clever and ambiguous, making it hard for others to pin him down.

"So, Mr. Atlas, any thoughts on our turf in Gerby? I hope to collaborate with a major conglomerate like yours! The Chandler Group does have a significant presence in Gerby." Byron began his self-promotion, showcasing his skills as a savvy businessman.

Seeing the gleam of ambition in Byron's eyes, it was evident that this was every man's desire.

Sensing that the conversation had reached a critical point, Jocelyn intervened, "Byron, you're always so immersed in work. Business discussions are best accompanied by a meal. Our guests must be hungry by now. We can continue over dinner!"

Byron quickly stood up, gesturing to me and Atlas. "Haha... I was so excited to meet Mr. Atlas that I forgot. Mr. Atlas, please. Today, I invited both of you to dine here to taste Gerby's distinctive home-cooked dishes."

We all stood up, following Byron into the dining room.

Hazelyn, who had been silent, trailed behind. She harbored resentment toward me, and I disdained associating with her. I was only waiting to find a gap in their stories and tear her apart.
