After dinner... Emerald Bay mansion was brightly lit. Some were playing chess, some were chatting over tea, some were touring the place.
Spencer patiently accompanied the children in playing, also pulling Eason along. The atmosphere was very harmonious, he was like a king of kids.
Gradually, night deepened.
Everyone got up one by one to bid the Marsh family farewell. Ivan and Jennifer came to the yard to see everyone off, then watched as the cars left one by one.
Half an hour later, master bedroom upstairs.
Ivan came out after showering, wearing a white bathrobe. His hair was also washed, his muscular fit body faintly visible underneath.
Picking up his phone, he scrolled to Andrew's number and directly called him, "Asleep yet?"
"Ivan, I was about to sleep, what's up?"
Ivan sat down on the window sofa and said in a deep voice, "Contact Princess Katherine and say our company has taken on the royal project."
"Why?" Andrew was shocked and very puzzled. "Although we have a branch in Lu Layuoka, they only do jewelry. The royals want to build a castle park, our construction, development, engineering, planning, design, drafting departments... we'd have to pull people from the whole team over."
Ivan listened silently without interrupting him.
After Andrew finished, a brief silence ensued. Ivan patiently spoke again, "I'll repeat it again, contact Princess Katherine and say Marsh Group agrees to design and build the castle park for her."
"But..." Andrew was anxious, very confused, "Ivan, you said we wouldn't get involved with the royals in Lu Layuoka, that taking on the royal project would be meaningless for our company's future plans, those were your exact words."
So he had directly rejected Katherine that day.
"But I've changed my mind now." Ivan's voice was as mellow as aged wine. His resolve was set. "Understand?"
