“This is my first time being a boss,” Cordelia said softly. “Please forgive me if I underperformed!”
Zephyr grabbed her shoulders. “There are some partners over there. Let me introduce you to them!”
The two of them left while the people around scattered. Nelly was the only one standing there clumsily.
Joe and Mandy turned around after taking two steps out. “Why are you standing there? Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough!?”
Nelly felt wronged and vengeful. She followed behind them and walked out of the banquet quickly.
…
“That’s pretty much what’s happening at the banquet.” Mr. Williams reported to Rowan.
The latter stood at the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. He was in his private mansion in Centrolis, which was close to Royal Manor.
“Our Cordelia is amazing. She doesn’t need anybody’s help, and she managed to handle that Nelly!” Charlie complimented.
Rowan smirked. He could not help but feel proud.
Of course she was amazing. Who was her father!?
“But…” Rowan paused and frowned. “Did that b*stard Zephyr really give the land and companies to her?”
“It’s true.” Charlie nodded. “I checked. The entire project in the western suburbs, the three listed companies he founded, his overseas assets and real estates…”
“Are all Cordelia’s?” Rowan’s eyes lit up.
“Yes.”
The old man was in deep thought.
Whether a man loved a woman or not, money was not the only way to measure it, but it was an important factor.
If Zephyr did not really care about Cordelia, it was impossible that he would transfer all of his assets under her name as security.
“So, how many points are you giving him, sir?”
“Hmm…” Rowan fell deep in thought for a moment and said in all seriousness, “It was negative before, so it’s 0 points now!”
Charlie looked at him in confusion.
‘Sigh… it’s a long journey for Mr. Z to marry the Irwins’ princess!’
…
Nelly came to Kelly’s accommodation hurriedly.
However, she noticed that the guards at the door had been changed. Be it the doctor, nurses, or maids, all of them had changed. She knew none of them.
She was panicking. She met the butler when she turned around.
“What happened?” She asked, “Where… did they come from?”
