As everyone gazed at them intently, Robert rose to his feet.

Robert was the Miller Family’s prospective son-in-law. With a single word, Henry had the power to determine the fate of Sloan Group, making it imperative for Robert to comply with Henry’s request.

Right then, Clementine sashayed over, still clad in her skintight gown.
