Inside the banquet hall, Mr. and Mrs. Matthew were cheerfully conversing with Cassius

Now, as the CEO of Chambers Group, Matthew had taken over several significant industries and subsidiaries, and as the eldest son favored by his father, it was almost certain that he would control the entire Chambers Group in the future.

Cassius, as the eldest son of Emeric, was also undoubtedly the future heir to the K Group. Thus, even impartial Ashbourne family, he was still willing to play nice with Cassius.

though Matthew disapproved of the polygamous and

“President Ashbourne, heard that the K Group is making significant moves in Elmsworth. Your momentum is quite impressive,” Matthew spoke with a successful businessman’s smile, “Our families go way back, and our fathers are like brothers. I hope we can continue this relationship into our generation.”

Cassius smiled lightly and clinked glasses with him.

“Remember to keep Chambers Group in mind if K Group has any good projects in Elmsworth. If our families unite, we’ll be unstoppable in Elmsworth, or even the whole country.” Matthew took a sip of his wine, revealing his ambitions.

“Mr. Chambers, I appreciate your perspective, but it’s unfortunate that I’m planning to step back soon.” Cassius replied, his eyes calm, sipping his wine elegantly Matthew and his wife, Elva, exchanged puzzled glances, “President Ashbourne, are you saying?”

“Everyone knows being a CEO was never my aspiration. I only took the position to help my father, to allow my siblings to pursue their dreams without being burdened by family affairs” Cassius thought of Evadne, and his lips curved up gently, “Now, my baby sister is back. She’s interested in business, eager to manage the group, and is highly capable. So once this transition phase is over, I will step back and leave the position to my

sister.”

Matthew looked stunned, “President Ashbourne, are you suggesting that Chairman Emeric plans to let Miss Evadne become the CEO of the K Group?” “Yes,” Cassius nodded, straightforwardly.

It was no secret that Evadne would be the group’s

ture heir

Looking at the entire Ashboume family, no one was more suitable than her

“But Miss Evadne is a girl, and she’s only in her early twenties. She should be enjoying her youth. In a few years, she’ll get married and should focus on her family. support her husband. Isn’t that the typical life of a wealthy heiress?”

Elva added gently, “Moreover, Chairman Emeric has several talented sons, any of whom could take over. Is it necessary for Miss Evadne to take on such a burden? It’s a lot of stress for a young girl.”

“I understand your concern, Mrs. Chambers, but Evadne is not an ordinary girl. If you ask her to focus on her family and not pursue her personal ambitions, she might flee abroad again and only come back when I’m on my deathbed Cassius joked, “So even if it’s just to keep her by my side, I have to give up my position. Whatever she wants, as long as it’s within my power, I will give it to her

Elva was taken aback!

The Chambers family had four children, three of whom were bbm from the same mother yet they were always at each other’s throats

Emeric had three wives and numerous children, yet instead of seeking more benefits for themselves, they were willing to give up what they had worked so hard fort Unbelievable! Incomprehensible!

Matthew praised Cassius verbally, but in his heart, he sneered at Cassius‘ lack of ambition and blind indulgence of his sister. He even gave up his bright future for her

“Mr. Chambers!”

At that moment, Matthew’s secretary hurried over. Seeing Elva present, he hesitated to speak

“Excuse me for a moment” Matthew apologized with a smile

Cassius nodded, “Please.”

As soon as Matthew left, Elva’s expression darkened.

“What did you say?” Matthew frowned after hearing the report.
