My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calcraft)

At that moment, an elderly man with graying hair and hands clasped behind his back approached from a distance with two burly bodyguards behind him. Rosella raised an eyebrow upon seeing the old man, and her expression immediately darkened. Elrog even shivered as he thought, 'Why is he here too?' Luther turned his head, his lips curling into a slight smile. "Mr. Bane."
The elderly man's piercing eyes fixed on Rosella. "I wonder if Zephyr Group and Affluence Group would be strong enough to compete with your family should they join forces?" As soon as the old man said that everyone's breaths caught in their throat.
Nash turned to Harrison on his left, who was stunned, and asked, "Is Zephyr Group really that powerful?"
Harrison recovered from his shock and whispered, "Zephyr Group is one of the top ten private enterprises in Drakonia. They're on par with Affluence Group!"
Lauren shook his head and sighed. "Hera, maybe we should have them switch places." Even with the Blanco family's support, they would not be able to compete with the combined forces of Zephyr Group and Affluence Group.
Hera looked at Nash. "Honey, what do you think?"
Nash raised an eyebrow and smiled. "When have I ever backed down?" Just as he was about to stand up, another female voice sounded, "What's all this excitement?"
Dressed in a long red dress that was cinched at the waist, Isadora walked over with Violet, whose hair was worn in twin ponytails. She had been watching the scene from not too far away and had intended to step in when Melody was unable to hold the other party back anymore.
However, Rosella had beaten her to it, and she had stomped her feet in frustration.
Rosella was struggling now, and her arrival was perfectly timed. Luther smiled slightly. "Miss Sloan, I trust you are well?"
Ignoring him, Isadora walked straight over and sat down beside Rosella, who glanced at her with annoyance. "The Sloans weren't invited. How did you get in?"
Isadora chuckled, her lips pursed as she replied teasingly, "With my beauty, getting an invitation is easy."
The atmosphere changed as Luther and Fredrich Bane's expressions darkened. It was clear Isadora planned to team up with Rosella.
Violet raised an eyebrow toward them, stating, "On behalf of
Universal Group, I would also like have a word with you!" This
statement hit like a thun.ne
causing a murmur through crowd.
"Who's this young woman? She represents Universal Group?" some asked skeptically.
"She might just be the daughter of the Jonford branch's president. She has no real power here," another commented dismissively.
"She's just a kid. She doesn't know anything!"
"Exactly, she should be home playing with her toys!"
While murmurs came alive amidst the wealthy Eastjon families who worked closely with Affluence Group and Zephyr Group, Isadora poured herself a small glass of wine. She sipped it gently with a provocative smile.
QUM
"She's Fabian's sister, Violet Hughes. She represents Universal Group's headquarters," she said.
With a casually dismissive comment, she instantly silenced everyone. However, the quiet was short-lived. Someone scoffed, "What a joke. When did Fabian become the chairman of Universal Group?" Another mocked, "Fabian is just a director. He's not even the general manager, let alone the chairman!"
The two quickly set the tone, and some in the crowd looked at Isadora with disappointment and disdain. Was this all the daughter of the Lord of Henley could do? Make baseless brags?

In response to everyone's skepticism,
Violet lifted her chin proudly and
declared, "Just three hours ago, my brother became the chairman of Universal Group with a 55%
shareholding!" Violet's words cracked
like thunder over everyone's heads.
