Chapter 738
Gregory remained composed upon hearing the remarks, though his eyes hinted at a mix of emotions.
“Oh dear, I’ve heard about that incident before. It’s been so many years, yet someone still brings it up.
They really have nothing better to
do!” Gregory spoke with a hint of disdain.
“Jealousy, that’s what it is! Seeing someone receive endless congratulations on their birthday, marry
into wealth, and be as
beautiful as a flower can make others green with envy. It’s common
for people to resort to backstabbing and spreading rumors behind the scenes. Even the artists in my
entertainment company engage in
such petty squabbles all the time. It’s ridiculous!” Gregory tightened his lips, furrowing his brow.
Though the comments weren’t directed at anyone specific, they still stung nonetheless.
“Chairman Thompson is truly a person of integrity and loyalty,” someone chimed in. “Despite Madam
Celeste being a former actre and only giving birth to a daughter for Chairman Thompson, he h not once
mistreated her. It speaks volumes about his character!”
The guests nodded in agreement, prompting Cameron to smile awkwardly, feeling disgruntled inside.
Cameron had thought bringing up this matter would make others poke fun at Wyatt’s expense, but it
backfired, earning his elder brother a wave of praise instead.

‘Were these people so blind to power and influence that they’d even
fawn over Wyatt if he messed up?’ Cameron thought.
Gregory glanced at his watch and scanned the room, but Justin was
nowhere in sight.
“Chairman Salvador, on such an important occasion tonight, why
hasn’t Mr. Salvador arrived yet?” Cameron asked tentatively.
Gregory replied, “Oh, he’ll be here shortly.”
“Really? That’s great!”
Cameron’s eyes lit up, his tone becoming more enthusiastic.”
Actually, our group has a great project underway, focusing on
environmental protection, which is currently receiving strong support from the government. My elder
brother has entrusted it to me, and I’m
looking for potential partners.”
He briefly explained the project, and Gregory nodded, showing a hint
of interest.
“My daughter, Cecily, has proposed two excellent collaboration
proposals recently. She’ll be joining us later. After the party,
a meeting where you and your son can join us for a deeper discussion if you’re interested,” Cameron
said, seizing the oppo
“Your daughter?” Gregory furrowed his brow.
P
“Yes, I only have one daughter, Cecily Thompson. She’s the same ag
as my brother’s daughter, Bella, just four months younger. She
studied at the top university in Helionis, receiving a full scholarship
every year. She even served as a translator for the President of
Helionis. After returning to Savrow, she joined KS Group based on her
own merit and is currently serving as the Director of the Product
Design Department,” Cameron proudly introduced his daughter, as if he were promoting a high-end
product he had personally crafted.
The guests nearby couldn’t help but think to themselves, ‘We all know your daughter doesn’t need
merit to enter KS Group…’
“Ah, truly an outstanding woman,” Gregory praised with forced
enthusiasm.
“Then it’s settled. I’ll arrange it after the party!” Cameron declared.
Gregory was slightly taken aback. ‘Settled? Who said it’s settled?’

Though Gregory wasn’t young anymore, he wasn’t naive. Could he not
see that Cameron’s intention to discuss business with him was just
an excuse? The real goal was to introduce his daughter, creating an
opportunity for their children to meet.
“Vice Chairman Thompson, my father hasn’t agreed yet. How could
you say it’s settled?” Justin’s cold and direct voice interrupted their
conversation.
All eyes turned as Justin approached, exuding a cool elegan

“Justin, why did you come so late?” Gregory complained but sec

The smile on Cameron’s face froze for a moment. Just as he was
about to speak, Justin coolly interrupted, “If this is a genuine.
