Chapter 1585


    It was as if the other party knew he was investigating them, revealing only superficial information


    and keeping everything else cloaked in mystery.


    He was even more clueless about who this Obsidian was!


    In the past, it was Damon who was invited to the Global Economic Summit, and he''d never


    mentioned the Obsidian Group afterwards. When asked, he''d simply say he hadn''t paid attention,


    and he wasn''t sure.


    He''d also asked Cole, but the answer was always the same, that Obsidian hadn''t attended..


    The more mysterious they were, the more curious and restless he became. Yet, he had to admit,


    the head of the Obsidian Group was indeed a rare business genius.


    Clear-sighted, shrewd, and decisive.


    In just a few years, he had transformed a small and near-bankrupt enterprise into a global leader.


    How could such a person be overlooked?


    This was why he was particrly concerned about the Obsidian Group. Dissatisfied, he primarily


    focused on the Harper Group.


    Thankfully, under Damon''s leadership, the Harper Group had also been on an upward trajectory.


    The day when the Harper family could reim the top spot in the international market was just


    around the corner. But who would have guessed that a woman named Chloe would appear out of


    nowhere,pletely diverting Damon''s attention. Eventually, he even gave up on thepany.


    Presley took a deep breath at this thought. In the past, he''d always been proud when speaking of


    his grandson.


    Now, just thinking about him filled him with a stifling frustration.


    He had always wanted the best for the Harper family, and had pinned all his hopes on Damon.


    "The Harper family will definitely be invited. At that time, I''ll apany you to the international


    business dinner after the summit." Presley said.


    Robin frowned at these words, “Father, you''re not in a good condition. It''s best if you rest at home. I


    can handle the international banquet on my own."


    The old man shook his head. "I''d rather go with you. I''m familiar with most of the corporate leaders


    who will be at the banquet. I can introduce you to them."


    Recalling how the old man had personally taken Damon to his first international business dinner,


    Robin let go of his slight dissatisfaction. He nodded gently, “As long as it doesn''t affect your health."


    “Alright. Presley agreed. Now that he''d handed over thepany to his second son, there was no


    reason to suddenly strip him of his position.


    As for Damon, if he was willing to return, they could discuss it then. But first, he needed to


    experience what it was like to lose the protection of the Harper family.


    "As for that woman, do what you think is best. Also, spread the word..." Presley added.


    These days, all social tforms were filled with news about the Alonso family. Wendy, Cole, Grace''s


    actions, and even their past were being dug up.


    Eventually, someone summed it up: "In the past, we thought the Alonso family was only entric


    because of that Ms. Wendy. Now it seems that the apple doesn''t fall far from the tree. The only


    decent person in the Alonso family is their second daughter."


    "Yes, Ms. Phoebe''s mother was from a well-educated family, gentle and graceful, also well-read


    with impable manners. Thankfully, Phoebe took after her mother!"


    "Indeed! Ms. Phoebe was always humble and unassuming. Now, a man is willing to pay three billion


    dors to sever her ties with the Alonso family. So, everyone, it''s better to be a good and honest


    person!"


    The topics of the online discussion finally seemed to be turning around. Apart from that, the hottest


    topics were still the film and clothing industries controlled by Chloe.


    Then, in the evening, a piece of breaking news appeared online. [The old chairman of the Harper


    Group, Presley, has dered that Damon is no longer to be given special treatrnent as the eldest


    grandson of the Harper family in anypany or situation.] The news caused a stir. The public had


    been aware of the falling out between the grandfather and grandson after the Alonso family''s


    business dinner the previous night. The old man had said something simr then. So when he


    made this announcement today, no one doubted its authenticity.


    "Wow, this old man is ruthless! He''s so harsh to his own grandson."


    "Is he trying to drive his own grandson into a corner?"


    “What''s the big deal? Hasn''t this old man done all sorts of things? Back then, he threatened Damon


    with thepany''s inheritance to force him to marry Wendy, didn''t he?"


    Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    “I''m confused! Now that Wendy is in this state, and the Alonso family is in Ms. Summers''s hands!


    Does the old man still want her as his granddaughter-inw? Compared to Ms. Summers, she''s like


    day and night!"


    "I really don''t understand this old man''s thinking!"


    “So what if he''s no longer treated as the eldest grandson of the Harper family? As if without the


    Harper family, people can''t survive! If Mr. Harper cared about this, he wouldn''t have chosen to give


    up thepany in the first ce!"


    “Even without the Harper family, there''s still Ms. Summers. Who dares to offend Ms. Summers in P


    City?"


    Damon and Chloe weren''t bothered upon hearing the news. Damon didn''t care, and Chloe knew


    Damon didn''t care. Besides,pared tost night, she felt much more at ease now. Even though


    Damon didn''t speak a word, she knew he must have his own schemes.


    Now, she was diligently searching for information on Azriel using her smartphone. However, all


    traces online had been meticulously wiped clean. This, of course, was within Chloe''s expectations.


    If Azriel truly wanted to maintain a low-key persona, he naturally would not leave any breadcrumbs


    for others to trace. If Damon genuinely had a secret he wanted to keep from everyone, how could


    he let them know they might trace it back to him? If she hadn''t seen Azriel at the hospital in the first


    ce, she wouldn''t have suspected anything about him.


    Not feeling too disappointed, she exited the screen and opened an online shopping tform, trying


    to pick up some snacks. She seized the moment while Damon was not looking, secretly cing


    several orders.


    Before she got pregnant, she had restrained herself for the sake of her figure, not to mention she


    didn''t have much desire for snacks. But recently, her taste buds had been acting up.She would


    leisurely surf the inte, and saliva would start flowing whenever she saw snacks.


    Previously, every snack she added to her shopping cart would ruthlessly be cleared out by Damon.


    Now, while he wasn''t paying attention, she didn''t bother adding them to the cart anymore and


    directly purchased the best snacks avable!


    She had barelypleted the payment and hadn''t even had the chance to celebrate when a


    message arrived on her WhatsApp.
