King’s Awakening - Chapter 292
Chapter 292: Chapter 292: Distorting Facts to Frame White Mitchell?
Sayon, Imperial Group.
“Mr. Anderson, are you telling the truth? Cooper really invited us to his wine party!?” Upon receiving word that Cooper was hosting a wine party, Alan Austin’s spirits lifted considerably.
However, the words of Messiah Anderson that followed, were as if a bucket of cold water was poured over him, extinguishing his morale.
“Not only did he invite us, but he also invited all bidders participating in the Nezzi New Town? What on earth is Cooper up to!?” Alan Austin furrowed his brow, his emotions fluctuating dramatically.
At this moment, Messiah Anderson started to analyze, “I guess Cooper is also interested in sharing a piece of the Nezzi New Town project, hence he wishes to assess the capabilities of various companies, seeking for one to partner with.
With Cooper’s support, both in terms of building materials resources and financial, they are almost not to worry about.
This time, we must seize the opportunity and should not let Cooper collaborate with others.”
Upon hearing this, Alan Austin nodded in agreement, “Others are least of our concerns, the most troublesome right now is that shrew Sherry Jones.
We must find an opportunity to completely crush her, she must not be allowed to collaborate with Cooper.
Therefore, tonight, have your daughter do some networking, Cooper’s granddaughter is also here, so influence her opinion, and then you can arrange accordingly…”
Next, Alan Austin shared his thoughts with Messiah Anderson.
After listening, Messiah Anderson couldn’t resist giving him a thumbs up.
On that very evening, Cooper’s prepared wine party was held as scheduled at the Emperor’s Residence.
All the company leaders involved in the Nezzi New Town bidding were invited.
At this time, all the company leaders who came to attend the wine party had ‘ulterior motives’ written all over their faces.
Obviously, attending the wine party was secondary, their main aim was to get in good graces with the influencial Cooper.
This included the invited Sherry Jones.
At this moment, Sherry Jones anxiously entered the Emperor’s Residence, her gaze drifting, searching all around for Cooper’s figure.
Because she knew, if she hoped to secure the Nezzi New Town project, she had to assure resources in terms of building materials, and Cooper was undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.
And at that moment, White Mitchell was standing by her side.
However, White Mitchell didn’t stay for long, he found an excuse to go to the restroom, temporarily leaving Sherry Jones.
He went to find Cooper, after all, he couldn’t let Sherry Jones know his true identity yet, so he had to find such an excuse.
Not long after White Mitchell left, two stunning figures, dressed in evening gowns, appeared like princesses under a starry sky, entering everyone’s field of view.
On sight of them, many men found it hard to divert their eyes.
However, recognition came quickly. One of them was Zhang Group’s pearl, April.
With that, the identity of the other was clear. Cooper’s granddaughter, Sana, a person who lives up in the clouds.
One who is simply too high to reach for common people, so they could only admire from afar.
“Sana, looking at your worried face, could it be that Sir Robert is still forcing you to marry that stranger?” April began to jest.
On hearing this, Sana disdainfully responded, “You little skunk, you really don’t know when to stop, do you? I’m almost dead tired from my grandpa’s nagging, saying that I’m not pretty enough for that man?
I have beauty and figure, how could I not be a match for that man?”
Recalling the words of her grandfather from the day before, Sana felt full of resentment. Her looks were actually criticized as ugly? Is there no justice left in this world?
As Sana and April were talking, Grandy Anderson appeared uninvited, approaching them.
Upon seeing Grandy Anderson, a look of reluctance flashed through April’s eyes. But due to her father’s instructions, she introduced Grandy Anderson to Sana.
Next, Grandy Anderson started talking with Sana, and in due course, she shifted the topic to White Mitchell and Sherry Jones.
Fair-weather-person?
Bully by leveraging one’s powerful connections?
Even compelled his own woman to cook his books?
Hearing about the White Mitchell described by Grandy Anderson, Sana couldn’t help but curse, “This Mr. Mitchell, how shameless can he be?
Who’s his wife, where is she now? I’ll go find her!”
Seeing this, Grandy Anderson smirked to herself, then feigning pity, said, “Ah, let it go. His wife, Sherry Jones, isn’t exactly a saint either.
Some time ago, she forced the Jones Family to hand over half of their shares. She took over the entire company. The old folks of the Jones Family were utterly cornered by her.
We better not provoke her.”
“I don’t care how difficult she is to deal with, I won’t let such a person into a party held by the Robert Family!” Sana Robert retorted in righteous anger, her pretty face full of fury.
Grandy Anderson, standing aside, continued to put on a sympathetic front, but her words were pouring fuel onto the fire.
The increasingly incensed Sana wondered, how could she possibly give people like Sherry Jones and White Mitchell the opportunity to collaborate with the Robert Family?
She couldn’t even offer them a window of opportunity, let alone a door.
With that thought in mind, Sana shouted to the crowd at the party, “Who is Sherry Jones? Stand up!”
Huh?!
Upon hearing Sana’s hostile voice, Sherry standing amongst the crowd, felt her heart jolt, and looked at Sana standing aloft in bewilderment.
However, the next moment, she noticed Grandy Anderson standing behind Sana.
Immediately, Sherry’s brows furrowed involuntarily, and her face was full of seriousness.
On the other hand, Cooper Robert, unaware of his granddaughter’s confrontation with White Mitchell’s wife outside, was pacing nervously around his room.
Azure Dragon had told him to wait in his room after the party had begun.
However, after waiting for a while, White Mitchell was nowhere to be seen. Cooper wondered if White had changed his mind or had an issue with him.
At this moment, Cooper was as restless as ants on a hot pot.
“Speak up. What is it that you’re so eager to see me for?”
Suddenly, a calm voice sounded from behind Cooper, startling him into breaking out in a cold sweat.
Then, Cooper quickly turned around to look at White Mitchell.
It was him!
Yes, it was him, the Supreme Military Lord of the Dragon Realm War Department, the founder of the White War Department, Army Master, White!
Cooper’s eyes reddened instantly at the sight, and then, he dropped to his knees before White.
“Lord Military Master, I … I finally get to see you again, please allow me to express my respect.”
With that, Cooper kowtowed heavily to White.
Seeing this, White Mitchell looked at him impatiently, “Alright, alright, get up. You’ve seen me, are you satisfied now?
Is there anything else? If not, I need to be with my wife.”
This…
Cooper was stunned, then his face wore an expression of hesitancy.
He had tried everything to meet White Mitchell because of an important matter, but when he finally got to see White, he found himself at a loss for words.
As Cooper was indecisive, Sana’s voice rang out from the outside of the villa.
“Who is Sherry Jones? Stand up!”
Sana’s voice was filled with hostility. Hearing this, White Mitchell’s face darkened instantly, and he asked indifferently, “Your person?”
I…
Hearing this, Cooper’s heart trembled violently, and his face turned pale with fright.
He knew exactly who White Mitchell’s wife was and who had just shouted out.
At that moment, Cooper began to inwardly curse: “Sana! Sana! Are you out of your mind?! How dare you provoke White Mitchell’s wife!
Of all the people you could provoke, why did you have to choose White Mitchell’s wife?!
Are you trying to bring ruin to our family, Robert?! Shame on you! Shame on you!!!”
