Supreme Mars novel Chapter 77

Printed on the cover was a vivid red goshawk, symbolizing the most influential chamber of commerce in Sallton, Winham, and New Queensland: The Kingston Chamber of Commerce.

Peter looked terribly washed-out, and he regretted his impulsiveness.

As the eldest son of the Lawsons, he knew the power and influence of the chamber. Anyone who was a business tycoon in the Sallton, Winham, and New Queensland regions would resort to any means to become a chamber member.

Not just because it was an exclusive group, but it was also a symbol of status. Being a member was the equivalent of entering the core business circle of Winbury.

Every year, the chamber would invite the rising stars in the business world to join them. However, Kate Lawson, who had received the highly sought-after invitation, had treated it like trash and threw the invitation straight into the bin.

Peter couldn't understand how Justin could have managed to become a chamber member in just a matter of days, after they had gone their separate ways.

He stared fearfully at Justin. "No, I don't believe you have become a member of the chamber."

"Believe it or not, it's up to you."

Justin was icy cold. "I advise you to lay low. I may not own the entire International Commerce Center, but don't think that just because Vesper Corporation is a listed company, you're such a big deal. In my eyes, you're nothing!"

Peter was shocked and furious. He couldn't utter a word.

"Get lost!"

Peter jumped in horror and fled the office immediately.

He did not take the elevator. Instead, he ran down the stairs.

Thinking of Justin's words, a sinister expression flashed across his face.

"You've just joined the Red Eagle Chamber of Commerce. What's there to flaunt? Once I’ve established a close relationship with the owner of the International Commerce Center..."

He thought about the event week after and his mood became better. He had heard that the mysterious owner would be attending this ball.

It was a golden opportunity for the Vesper Corporation. If they could successfully establish a good relationship and secure a few major projects, the company would grow exponentially bigger.

As he continued to walk down, he came to the 88th floor of the building.

This was where the CEO office of the Atlas Beauty Group was located.

Instinctively, he stopped in his tracks. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to visit the CEO.

All the employees had left, and only the light in the CEO's office was brightly lit.

Peter heard a childish voice as soon as he got close to the office door.

"Mom, when are we going back? I miss Dad."

After which, Lydia's voice could be heard, "Alright, let's go home now."

Her voice was exceptionally gentle, completely different from her usual resolute tone.

Hearing the voices reminded Peter of Lydia's wedding night. His face turned gloomy.

Just then, the door opened. Lydia walked out of the room holding Emilia's hand.

The moment she saw Peter, the gentle look on her face was gone. "It's you?!"

Peter was not expecting them to leave so promptly, so he was shocked when the door opened and she saw him. He recomposed himself and said with a lighthearted smile, "Good evening, Lydia."

However, Lydia gave him a cold glance then completely ignored him.

"Come on Emilia. Let's go."

They started walking towards the elevator.

Malice flashed across Peter's eyes again. He quickly caught up with Lydia and said, "Lydia, it's so late. Why don't we have dinner together? You must be starving after such a long day."

She looked at him with absolute despise and slowly enunciated each word, "Peter, I’m already married, and my husband is waiting for me downstairs."

"Husband?"

Viciousness immediately crept into Peter when he heard this.
