The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1379

Chapter 1379

"They were big to begin with, and who knows how much they'll grow in the future."

"The Alonso family is certainly going to feel this. This storm only serves to highlight Peck Innovations' strengths."

This was basically saying that the Alonso family couldn't hold a candle to Peck Innovations right now.

Wendy could never in a million years have imagined that today's board meeting would turn out like this. She had goofed up countless times in the past, and losing to Chloe was one thing.

But her father? How could he mess up? Why?!

Clutching her hands tight to stop them from shaking, she said "Just because one deal fell through, you're comparing Peck Innovations to the Alonso family."

"Mr. Alonso, can you tell us why the negotiation failed? I heard that you had a confirmed answer before you went to M Country, so why did the investors there have a change of heart?" Just as Wendy finished speaking, a reporter's voice came over the TV. Cole's face was even grimmer, but he didn't say a word.

Axel sighed, "I feel sorry for Mr. Alonso about this. The main reason is that the Alonso family's lady caused some trouble at a critical moment. At such a time, she made some huge mistakes at home. If the company goes under, that's one thing, but being involved in fraud and abusing power, forcing others to do illegal things, it's unbelievable. You may not know that the investor had already signed the contract, but when he heard about the mess Ms. Alonso caused at home, he tore up the signed contract on the spot."

The room was silent. Wendy's face was indescribable.

The shareholders bowed their heads and chuckled, most of them taking pleasure in her misfortune.

"So that's why. She brought the trouble overseas!"

"She's made so many stupid mistakes, and now she's trying to marry into the Harper family! Has the Harper family become a dump?"

"If Damon actually marries such a woman, he's marrying a disaster. Even a signed contract can be torn up by her. That's really something!"

"And Presley, what was he thinking bringing her to the Harper Group's board meeting?"

At this point, someone grabbed the remote and switched to the stock market channel. The Alonso family's stock index was falling at a rapid pace, but Peck Innovations' stock index was rising quickly.

If the taunts didn't make Wendy panic, the sight of the Alonso family's plummeting stock index did. She felt drained of all energy.

Presley's face turned pale. They had been with the Alonso family for so many years but had never seen them in such turmoil. If the trend continued, it was unthinkable.

A few monotone claps started to echo, Yasmine clapping with a faint smile on her face. "Good show, I'm very satisfied with today's board meeting. As for the rest, it might not take place here. Ms. Alonso, I should thank you for giving me such a great project with Peck Innovations." Wendy's nails were digging into her palm, her gaze at Yasmine full of hatred, "It's just a business deal."
