Supreme Mars

After Peter left, the representatives of other affluent families stood up to bid their farewells as well.

No one dared to offend Leo after witnessing what had happened to Peter.

Indeed, they even greeted the Fords with smiles plastered on their faces before taking their leave.

This left William rather puzzled. Usually, these people would not even bother looking at him.

The ironic thing was that the person who caused this scene was the one that his wife and daughter disdained above all others.

William turned around and discovered that Leo was gone.

Just as he was about to look for him, he heard his wife's sharp voice.

"He's gone. Why waste time looking for him? If you're that free, you might as well think about how we can secure the partnership with Atlas Beauty."

The mention of the partnership with Atlas Beauty made William frown as well. "I'll find a way to get it done. You should stay put, and not cause trouble."

"Me? Causing trouble?"

His words pissed her off.

"Are you blind? Your darling son is just riding on someone else's coattails! The powerful one is the woman protecting him! What does it have to do with him? Are you going to pin your hopes on him? Forget it!"

Rebecca put her hands on her hips and added sarcastically, "It's a good thing I asked Caroline to introduce herself to a few rich scions beforehand."

She waved towards her daughter who was currently engaged in conversation with someone.

Caroline soon approached with a well-dressed man holding a glass of red wine.

"Mom," Caroline said.

"Yes, dear." Rebecca's face became full of smiles at once, asking, "Are you getting along well with Mr. O'Brien?"

"Very well," Caroline answered, looking at the handsome man next to her with a smile. "He's so witty and open-minded. Great husband material, I’d say!"

Rebecca grinned from ear to ear when she heard this. "Then we should all get to know each better in the future."
