President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 221

No matter what was in their mind, they looked just as happy and gentle as they could ever be.

Jessica's gaze wandered down. Her heart seemed to be pounding out of her chest. The excitement of the moment filled her soul.

Shawn came to his senses after a terrible shock. He'd got his father's intentions.

His face tightened. However reluctant he was, he could only keep silent.

Henry left with Shawn after making a deal with Clara.

When they got out, Shawn asked, "Dad, why do you promise them? You don't want me to marry Jessica, do you? What happened?"

Henry kept a cold expression, looked at Shawn and said in a deep voice. "I have no choice.

“To be honest, Miller Group encounters its crisis. A mysterious overseas group rich in funds wants to acquire Miller Group. Miller Group is still independent today all thanks to your uncles.

“Recently, that group kicks up buying the shares of Miller Group. You know members of the board very well. Except your uncles, they only work for money.”

“As long as the company can offer a good price, they'll sell their stocks sooner or later. By then, I can do nothing but lose control over Miller Group.

“You are my only son. Miller Group is mine now, but yours in the future. Those members are hesitating. I'll try my best to persuade them to keep their shares.”

“However, if the scandal of you abandoning Natalia was brought to light, what would they think?”

“Natalia had been with you for six years and worked for Century Entertainment for two years, but you could abandon her willfully. Do you think those senior members that support you will ever believe you whole-heartedly again?”

“Trust is hard to breed but easy to lose. Shawn, we cannot afford mistakes. Even if you have to marry that woman, you just have to.”

Shawn had never expected the prosperous Miller Group to get into such a trouble.

He was both shocked and reluctant.

"But..."

"Stop it. If you dislike her, you can just marry her and take her as a decoration.

"I am wondering. You loved that woman very much, didn't you? Why do you refuse to marry her now? I am really angry that you're such an irresponsible man!"

With that, Henry got into the car.

The car door was slammed with a bang, which stopped Shawn from going further.

He opened his mouth, watching the black car driving away, but failed to say anything.

At the end, he could only sigh and walk towards his own car.

In McCarthy Properties.

Archie sat in the president office. The atmosphere was depressing.

Brian stood opposite him with a cautious look. Looking at his boss's gloomier face, he felt his heart beating in his throat.

Brian persuaded, "Mr. McCarthy, it's just part of Mrs. McCarthy's plan. Don't worry. She has called you and detailed her plan, right?"

Archie sneered.

"Her plan? Does she plan to let those airheads abuse her like this?"

Brian was at a loss.

How could he give Mr. McCarthy a pleasant answer?
