Ralph’s eyes flickered slightly. “Of course, I’ve heard of them. The Hunt Group has enormous influence internationally. Many of their brands and industries are leaders in their fields.”

He delivered those polite words with ease, yet the disappointment in his gaze toward Khloe was impossible to hide.

“So, your husband is from the Hunt Group…?”

“Yes. He is currently the CEO of the Hunt Group-Nick Hunt. If you ever come to our country, my husband and I will host you together.”

Ralph felt a tightness in his chest, but he quickly smiled and nodded. “Then it’s a deal.”

With that, the topic came to an abrupt end.

The banquet was not yet over, but Khloe felt she had already spent quite some time with Ralph, so she excused herself politely.

Before leaving, the two exchanged contact information. Ralph said he would find time in the next few days to discuss the project with her in more depth, and Khloe readily agreed.

No sooner had she stepped out of the banquet hall than Clarice followed her.

Today, she had only greeted Khloe briefly. During the banquet, she had been busy.

Besides, with Henry at Khloe’s side, it had not been convenient for her to go over and interrupt.

Every time Clarice came to Naraida, aside from fulfilling her filial duties as a daughter-in-law to Henry, her main purpose was always to expand her network of connections.

Henry understood this perfectly.

Now that Khloe had taken over Morrison Group, Clarice felt uneasy. Even if she were to withdraw from the company in the future, she still needed to pave a path for herself first.

He saw all of this clearly. Since it was mutually beneficial, he allowed her to go about her affairs.

Moreover, in Henry’s view, a family enterprise required internal checks and balances.

However, this time the situation was somewhat different.

Not long ago, Clarice had brought him certain unverified secrets suggesting that Niel’s death was connected to Nick’s father, George.

The matter was huge–both involving Khloe and affecting the Morrison Group.

According to Clarice, Khloe and Nick were now very close. If the truth were explained to Khloe directly, she might not necessarily side with the family.

After much deliberation, Henry decided to summon Khloe alone.

Her marriage had been arranged by him personally. The alliance between the Hunt and Morrison families

should have been an exceptionally favorable match.

Therefore, before the truth was fully clarified, he did not intend to let Khloe leave. Coincidentally, Ralph appeared-giving him a way to keep her here under the pretext of work, while also allowing him to see whether his granddaughter could, like Niel, shoulder the responsibilities of the Morrison family’s heir.

Since Khloe returned to Morrison Group, Henry had heard many reports about her. Some praised her; others criticized her.

Clarice, in particular, accused Khloe of acting impulsively and having a chaotic emotional life.

In that respect, she likely took after Niel.

Clarice spoke out of resentment, but deep down, Henry agreed.

If Niel had not truly been someone ruled by emotion, the relationship between father and son would not have deteriorated into cold distance in the end.

Before Khloe arrived, Henry had already given Clarice strict instructions not to reveal a single word to Khloe of her own initiative.

Everything would be decided by him.
