Returning With A Thousand Favors novel Chapter 153

Chapter 153

However, Simon ignored him and did not even look at him.

“Simon, did you hear what I said?” Edward saw the look on Simon’s face and suddenly felt greatly embarrassed.

However, Simon only looked up and just glanced at him.

Edward immediately felt a chill down his spine.

Back then, after his elder brother died, he originally wanted the position of the family head.

However, he had no idea when Simon had reached an agreement with the Pembroke family.

After Simon got the support of the Pembroke family, Edward missed the chance to be the head of the family.

Over the years, Simon had been gradually neglecting his second uncle and didn’t take him seriously at all.

What surprised him even more was that Simon was becoming more and more like his big brother.

And Simon had publicly embarrassed him many times.

“Simon, do you really want to harm the Hernandez family’s benefits for a woman?

“Don’t forget who you are. You’re Hernandez Group’s CEO. Your every move concerns the fate of thousands of people.

“If you do such a thing that will do harm to Hernandez Group’s benefits, then I’m afraid you won’t be capable enough to be our CEO anymore!” Edward was a little afraid when he said that.

However, with the Pembroke family as an excuse, he forced himself to stand up to Simon…

After all, he had brought this upon himself.

And Simon couldn’t blame it on him.

That’s right, Simon. You should bring the person that Mr. Pembroke wants.”

“Yeah. We can’t let you harm everyone’s interests just because of one person.”

After Edward said that, the other people also agreed.

Simon’s gaze circled around the people who spoke.

It was as if he wanted to memorize them all.

Meanwhile, Ruth sat on the chair with an arrogant look on her face.

She had been too low-key in the past.

And she let Simon think that she was such a pushover.

After all, she was the eldest daughter of the Pembroke family.

She would never tolerate this humiliation!

This time, she would definitely make Simon and that woman kneel down and apologize to her!

At this moment, the tightly shut door of the conference room was suddenly kicked open from the outside.

This violent sound made everyone present look over.

Standing at the door was a beautiful woman.

Behind her stood two tall men.

And they looked like her bodyguards.

When Simon saw the person at the door, he was slightly stunned. However, after a moment, he immediately put on a gentle look on his face.

“Oh, I’m sorry. My kick was a little too strong. Did I scare anyone?” Marina put her hands behind her back and looked at everyone in the meeting room with a smile.

Although she sounded apologetic, there was no hint of apology in her tone or eyes.

“Yenny, this woman is the one who humiliated me!” As soon as Ruth saw Marina, she immediately said to Yenny, who was standing beside her.

She gritted her teeth and looked like she wanted to eat Marina alive on the spot.

When Yenny heard Ruth’s words, he couldn’t help but look up.

When his gaze landed on Marina’s face, a trace of greed flashed in the depths of his eyes.

This woman was indeed very beautiful.

No wonder Simon would rather offend the Pembroke family to protect her.
