n get the chance to tell you yet,” Sean said as he checked his watch. “It’s getting late. I’ve got the files. I need to go.”

Mrs. Jasper Sr.’s brows furrowed with displeasure. Her tone carried a hint of reproach. “Have dinner first. If anything happens, I’ll take the blame.”

“That won’t work,” Scan replied lazily, keeping his usual laid–back tone. “You can’t represent the company on your own, Just wait–you’ll probably get a call any minute now about an emergency board meeting.”

With that, Sean ignored everyone in the hall and headed upstales as if he were the only one there.

Downstairs, the Wilson family exchanged awkward glances.

Mr.Wilson Sr. was the first to speak. “Mrs. Jasper 5r., does Sean not know that tonight’s dinner was arranged for him and Simone to officially meet?”

Though he was two years older than Mrs. Jasper Sr., he still addressed her respectfully due to her status.

His tone remained measured and polite, but Mrs. Wilson Sr. wasn’t nearly as composed. Her discontent was written all over her face.

“Mrs. Jasper, Sr.,” she said bluntly, “what was that about? Simone was standing right in front of him, and he didn’t even say hello. Is he pretending nat to know, or does he truly have no idea what this dinner was supposed to be about?“!

Vivian lowered her head, hiding the mockery in her eyes. “Seriously? What makes your granddaughter so special that my brother should greet her? She’s basically throwing herself at him–desperate much?” she silently remarked.

Mrs. Jasper Sr. was clearly embarrassed by her grandson’s behavior, but she still forced a smile to maintain the peace. “You’re misunderstanding. Sean probably rushed upstairs to grab something from the study and didn’t have time to greet anyone. He’ll be back down shortly. I’ll formally introduce Simone then.”

Mrs, Wilson Sr. looked like she wanted to argue, but her husband gave her a subtle glance, signaling her to hold back

Vivian, seated beside Mrs. Jasper Sr., unintentionally locked eyes with Simone.

Simone gave her a polite smile.

Vivian, seething with jealousy, didn’t even bother to return tr. She coldly turned her gaze away.

Ten minutes later, both Mrs. Jasper Sr. and James received phone calls Informing them that the company had an urgent matter and an emergency board meeting had to be held.

Mr. Jasper Sr. had already officially handed over control of the household to Sean, and under his orders, James had also transferred management of the company to him.

Right now, Sean held the most authority within the entire corporation.

Mrs. Jasper Sr. took a steady breath, her face slightly cold.
