Because he knew, this was a trap!
No matter how he answered, whether he would go or not, it wouldn't be appropriate!
If he said he would go.
Esther would definitely ask him if he wanted to rekindle his old feelings with Candace Nance.
If he said he wouldn't go.
Esther would say he was being evasive and didn't dare go!
Ah...
Being a man is tough!
With this thought in mind,
Chris ambiguously said, "Honey, this invitation isn't for me. If you want to go, go; if you don't want to go, don't!"
"Hmph!"
Esther snorted lightly.
Obviously, she wasn't very satisfied with Chris's answer!
"Of course I'm going!"
"If I don't go, she'll think I'm afraid of her!"
Esther said, unwilling to admit defeat.
This time, Candace Nance came with a strong momentum.
She had specifically established the Nance Group East Coast branch to deal with the Chester Group as a secondary goal.
The real goal was to steal her husband!
How could she let go of such an outstanding person like Chris!
Not only would she go!
She would attend in her finest attire!
Chris smiled bitterly and quietly slipped back into the kitchen.
To be honest.
The thought of these two women meeting.
Even Chris, the undefeated Primus, felt a headache coming on!
"Honey, you can't leave!"
"I want you to promise me that you'll go with me!"
"I..."
Upon hearing this,
Chris was dumbfounded.
He stuttered, "I don't think I need to go! Candace Nance didn't invite me, why should I go?"
Esther's face suddenly darkened as she said, "Husband, don't you want to accompany me?"
Seeing Esther about to explode,
Chris hurriedly appeased her with a smile, "Of course I'll go! Wherever my wife goes, I'll go!"
"Hmph, that's more like it!"
Various big shots were talking and laughing.
They had all received invitations from the Nance Group.
For this kind of northern giant in Amerosia,
the daughter of the wealthy Nance family.
These East Coast officials and business owners, like rats smelling oil, were very quick to act.
All of them wanted to curry favor with Candace Nance!
There were even big shots who had heard the news and came from other provinces and cities!
"Honey, I told you before, there's no need to dress so formally; casual is fine!"
Chris, stepping out of the Maybach,
wore a look of helplessness.
At this point, Chris was dressed in a Stuart Hughes diamond edition suit, shining brilliantly from head to toe.
He looked handsome and charming.
His aristocratic demeanor even slightly suppressed the military air he had honed throughout his iron-blooded career.
Standing among the crowd, he stood out like a crane among chickens!
Most importantly,
Chris had a unique aura.
His eyes were like the vast starry sky.
One glance, and you would be deeply enthralled!
