“Please don’t take it too seriously. My daughter is young and impulsive. We will never pursue what happened just
now. It’s a normal technical fault. We don’t need to make such an unpleasant scene.”
Paige was stunned to hear her father saying this. She looked at Eaton in disbelief and stamped her feet in
protest.
“Dad, why are you saying you won't you pursue what happened just now?
Why?”
Eaton's face darkened in anger and he landed a stinging slap on Paige's face.
“That's enough! Now, apologize to Mr. Bryant and Miss Torres!”

“Dad, you slappedjust because of soutsiders?” Paige gasped in disbelief, covering her red and fast
swelling face with her hand. By now, all eyes were on her and she ran out of the banquet hall angrily without
waiting for Eaton's response.
However, Eaton didn’t care about her at all. He turned to Marco and
Loraine with a fawning look. “Friendliness is conducive to business success. Please don’t bother Mr. Todd.”

When Marco heard this, he turned to Loraine.
“What do you think? It’s up to you.”
Loraine was surprised. She didn’t expect him to ask for her opinion in the presence of everyone. He was always
the bossy one.
Eaton, on the other hand, was overjoyed.
Since she was a woman, he was confident that Loraine would be much easier to deal with.
So, he spoke to her in a patronizing tone.
“Miss Torres, you just took over the business, you know. I'm afraid you don’t know how difficult it is to make a
company bigger. Right now, I'm thinking about the future of Universe Group. If you want to expand to
Bluhm in the future, we might have the opportunity to be partners, right? | sincerely hope you'll can think it over.
There's a lot we can achieve if we partner up with each other in the future.”

But Marco, fearing that Loraine would be softhearted and listen to
Eaton, quickly reminded her in a Low voice, “Remember, Kristy recently tried to discredit you online. | found out
that the Johnathan family were also involved in it.”
From the beginning, Loraine had no intention of agreeing, and when she heard this, she beceven more
determined. “We'll meet again in court.”
With that, she turned around and left.
Seeing how decisive Loraine was, Marco broke into a smile and promptly followed her outside.
Eaton was furious as he watched Loraine and Marco walk away.
