Chapter143
Were they not in a cooperative relationship?
Others also noticed and cast curious glances.
“Um…” not wanting to become the target of everyone’s criticism, Valerie spoke softly, “Can the celebration dinner begin now?”
The two men finally came to their senses and simultaneously let go of each other’s hands.
The sparks clashed in their gazes, but did not dissipate.
Assistant Steven Barrera pushed Ricky into his seat.
But he couldn’t help but say, “What’s the matter with this Mr. Crawford? How come as soon as you arrive, he gives you a show of strength.”
Ricky’s gaze fell upon Valerie, who was being led by Terrence to the chief position.
A faint smile lingered in the depths of the eyes.
Then, he slightly tilted his head back and glanced at Steven.
The smile in the eyes did not fade away, but it was filled with a warning.
Steven instantly knew that he had overstepped, so he quickly lowered his head.
Ricky finally withdrew his gaze and looked at Terrence and Valerie once again.
If Terrence had known, he and Valerie got married, I’m afraid they wouldn’t have shaken hands so politely today.
The cooperation between the two parties would also collapse as a result.
On the other side.
Almost being forced to sit next to Valerie by Terrence, she took several deep breaths before managing to resist the urge to flip the table and leave.
The success or failure hinges on this one move.
She couldn’t provoke Terrence.
“Theodore.”
Halfway through the celebration banquet, Terrence, looking at the well–behaved and sensible Valerie by his side, felt a decrease in the frustration in his chest, and he gave Theodore a signal.
Theodore understood immediately and took the microphone to go on stage.
The audience below fell silent in an instant.
“Ladies and gentlemen, today we are hosting a celebration banquet, not only to commemorate the first collaboration between us and the Murray Group, but also for Mr. Crawford to announce a major event, which is his wedding.”
The scene erupted with thunderous cheers!
