The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame (Donald and Jennifer)

Chapter 892 Business Alliance

“Just look at her showing off. What a snake.” Archer's face, covered in scars, looked downright terrifying.

Sheldon's expression darkened as he stared at Geraldine. “She won't be able to stay gleeful for long. I'll make sure she regrets her actions by tonight. By then, I'll make her kneel before me and beg me to end her life.”

Archer's eyes brightened at Sheldon's words. “Sheldon, have you come up with a plan?”

Sheldon chuckled. “Just you wait. The show is about to begin.”

Although Archer and Sheldon had been expelled from the Harper residence, they were still entitled to attend the banquet as part of the Harper family.

Despite their indignance, they couldn't show themselves and could only swallow their displeasure while watching Geraldine interact with the elite guests.

After all, their reputation and status were far apart from Geraldine's, and approaching her now would only make them look foolish.

“Ladies and gentlemen, we are gathered here tonight not only because I have taken over as the head of the Harper family, but also because I have an excellent business opportunity that I would like to collaborate on with all of you.”

Geraldine clapped her hands, and the projector lit up, displaying the PowerPoint slides she had prepared earlier.

“New Littbourg Business Alliance? What is this?”

“Have you guys seen that logo before? Why does it look so familiar to me?”

All the celebrities in attendance that night were savvy businesspeople. Truth be told, they were not particularly interested in who had become the head of the Harper family.

Their main focus was on how they could profit from the situation.

Hence, Geraldine managed to capture everyone's attention when she announced the concept of the New Littbourg Business Alliance.

With a confident smile, Geraldine explained, “The New Littbourg Business Alliance is led by the Harper family, with shares held by Dragon Fide Corporation. It is a business alliance open to any businessman in New Littbourg. Within the alliance, there are thirty-six industries represented, including food and beverage, e-commerce, network and communication, energy, construction, and hospitality, among others. This platform will allow us to truly share our resources, intelligence, and information with each other. For far too long, we have been competing against each other without a clear goal or unified business model. The New Littbourg Business Alliance aims to address these issues and lead everyone toward a brighter and more prosperous future.”

Everyone in attendance quickly caught on to Geraldine's true intentions, seeing through the facade of her beautiful speech.

It became evident that she harbored ambitions to seize control over New Littbourg's businesses by taking the helm of the alliance.

Archer, taken aback, stared at Geraldine in shock. “Sheldon, she's an ambitious one. She's attempting to achieve what the old man failed to do over a few decades.”

Sheldon sneered, “What an arrogant brat. Let her pave her own path to destruction.”

As expected, the crowd erupted into murmurs as soon as Sheldon finished speaking.

“Ms. Harper, isn't your business alliance too idealistic? Many of us here tonight are not only potential partners but also fierce competitors. If we join your alliance, who will we compete against?”

“Yeah, Ms. Harper, asking us to pay three hundred thousand to gain entry into the alliance feels like quite an exorbitant sum. What specific services will you provide to justify such a hefty fee? It seems a bit like daylight robbery!”

Despite the barrage of questions and skeptical remarks, Geraldine retained her composure with an air of confidence.

She had anticipated this very reaction from the crowd. Hence, she began distributing the information she had prepared earlier to everyone present. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
