The momentum was a bit strong, but I could endure it. Roy’s smile became restrained; his eyes were as sweet and wicky as silk “You also drink alcohol?”
1 dido’s really know how to,” I politely replied.
Danns hurriedly pushed Roy away, saying, “Alright, alright, don’t get Katrina drunk.”
Just as Grandma had taken Roy away, another person approached me. I took a good look at the other person’s appearance and politely nodded, saying, “Dad, happy birthday.”
Felipe’s face darkened, and he coldly responded, “Hmm.” I was feeling a bit awkward, not knowing what to say and also not understanding why my father–in–law, who had always looked down on me, suddenly approached me.
Felipe still had a disdainful gaze, a superior posture, and an arrogant tone. “In the future, don’t go whispering in Kaleb’s ear. Although the Barton Group is entrusted to his management, I am still the largest shareholder of the Barton Group. I won’t give you money just because you want it.”
1 suddenly realized. The helper that Annalise found was my father–in–law. There were some means, but they were not enough to bring me down. Father–in–law prevented Kaleb from investing in my company, and his reasoning was also convincing.
I calmly said, “Dad, investment is a two–way street. Although the Barton Group was powerful and well–funded, I didn’t want to invest with them anymore.”
Felipe sneered at me, not expecting me, just the legal representative of a small company, to dare speak with such arrogance. He genuinely disliked his daughter–in–law from the bottom of his heart and looked down on me.
“Your pathetic little company, shut it down quickly; it’s a disgrace to the Barton family.”
I remained composed and spoke gently as I asked, “Dad, has the Barton family’s reputation fallen to the point where they need my company’s image to be maintained?”
Felipe was speechless; his face turned green with anger.
