Chapter 2476
Valeria offered a reassuring smile.
“There’s no need to be anxious.
She simply wanted me to pass along a message.
”
“And what might that be?”
“She reminded you to honor your commitments.
Since you’ve already pledged cooperation to Hughes Group, she believes you shouldn’t turn your back on them now, especially when they need it most.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
She insists you uphold your agreement with Hughes Group.
”
When he heard Valeria’s words, Thiago’s face tightened, and he glanced at her with doubt.
“Why did Kallie step in all of a sudden?” he asked, his voice edged with curiosity.
Valeria smiled warmly at Rosalynn before answering.
“Thiago, I haven’t had the chance to introduce her.
This is Rosalynn, my best friend,” she said.
“She just became the CEO of the Hughes Group and needs to show she can handle the job.
So, when I found out she was in trouble, I asked godmother for a favor,” Valeria added, her tone light but serious.
Though Thiago felt a surge of irritation, he kept his expression neutral.
After all, his business had grown thanks to his wife’s support.
In the company, his wife, Kallie Blake, owned more shares than he did, a fact he couldn’t ignore.
So even though he was the CEO, his wife had always held the real power in the company.
With her decision made, he had no choice but to follow it.
Thinking about this, he cast a regretful glance at Bowen.
“Mr.
Happer, I’m sorry.
It looks like we can’t move forward with our partnership this time.
Maybe another time.
”
Bowen’s face fell, his hard work crumbling before him.
Scarlet was even more livid.
She had sacrificed so much, and now it seemed to be all for nothing.
How could this happen?
Before Bowen could reply, Scarlet interjected, her voice sharp, “Mr.
Blake, this is a business matter.
Do you really have to listen to your wife? It’ll be embarrassing if this gets out.
People will say you’re henpecked.
”
Thiago’s face darkened as he glared at Scarlet.
Everyone in the business circle knew he always listened to his wife’s words.
But it was never mentioned openly.
Yet, here was Scarlet saying it.
And it left him feeling really humiliated.
