Chapter 1914
Caleb firmly believed that if someone didn’t want to be controlled by others, they had to have their own strength and confidence.
“Thank you…” Vera lowered her head and murmured.
Caleb simply responded, “Instead of saying polite words, why don’t you focus on taking action?” Vera fell silent.
When Caleb made a promise, he followed through. If he hosted a gathering, even the most powerful figures in the business world had to give him face. After all, he was always busy-having him arrange a meet-up was a rare occasion.
Vera followed beside him, greeting each guest as they arrived.
The first to tease them was Hunter. “It hasn’t even been that long, and you two are already official? No wonder you didn’t want to let this pretty lady go back then. Keeping her for yourself, huh?”
He leaned forward with a smirk. “Come on, introduce her to us.”
At first, Vera had also believed the rumors about Hunter and Caleb being involved, but after spending time around Caleb, she realized it was all just gossip.
Caleb had always had his heart set on someone else.
“Hi, I’m Vera Mason,” she introduced herself politely.
Ben smirked. “Finally willing to introduce her to us, huh? Don’t worry, when you two get married, I’ll be the first to send a gift. And if you have a daughter, let’s arrange a marriage with my son.”
Caleb shot him a sharp glare. “Get lost. Your kid’s already running around, and I don’t even have a daughter yet, and you’re already planning her future? Why don’t you push Hunter to find someone and give you a daughter-in-law instead? Actually, wait-what about Nash’s little girl? She’s right there, ready- made.”
Ben instinctively glanced at Nash. Charlie and Orion were already close friends, and Charlie clearly had a soft spot for Gemma.
But there was a problem-Nash was notoriously overprotective when it came to his wife and daughter.
He hadn’t even brought it up yet, and Nash had already made his stance clear. Anyone who wanted to marry his daughter would have to pass his test first. There was no way he would allow her to be used ima business alliance.
And to be fair, it wasn’t just because Nash doted on her.
Gemma had every reason to be confident in her worth. After all, her grandfather and great-grandfather’s legacies alone spoke volumes.
Nash, ever composed, simply said, “Let’s focus.”
Unlike Ben, who enjoyed teasing, Nash was more interested in why Caleb had arranged this meeting. Caleb never brought anyone around unless it was serious.
And today, not only had he brought Vera, but he had also gathered them all together. That meant there
was a reason.
Caleb let out a low chuckle. “You really are the sharpest one, Nash. Vera’s family business is in trouble She wants to revive it, but I don’t know anything about business was hoping you could lend her a hand.”
For Nash, this was hardly a difficult request.
“The Mason Corporation that just went bankrupt?” Nash asked casually.
Vera had just introduced herself, and there was only one company in the industry facing liquidation so it wasn’t hard to put two and two together.
“Yes,” Caleb confirmed.
Nash let out a light chuckle. “Oh, that? Not a problem. Come by my office tomorrow, and we’ll talk.”
Then, he glanced at Caleb with a knowing smirk. “Since you brought your girlfriend today, why don’t we
call our families and make this a proper gathering?”
