Chapter 1287
He added, “The Bryant Group and the Universe Group have officially initiated the White Cloud Airport revamp project. We’re planning a celebration to boost morale. Wouldn’t it be inspiring for both sides if you and Mr. Bryant could attend together?”
Before Loraine could reply, Marco leaned in and murmured, “I’ve also arranged a surprise for you.”
A surprise?
Loraine’s eyebrows twitched as she watched the balloons scattering in the sky. She felt a headache looming. What other surprises did Marco have in store?
A N G E L A ‘s L I B R A R Y
Where did this man learn all these tricks?
Stellar Galaxy…
After finally seeing Marco off, Loraine couldn’t help but ponder on the surprise he had mentioned.
A mixture of worry and inexplicable excitement enveloped her. Standing by the window in her office, she watched Marco’s car gradually fade away, an involuntary smile gracing her lips.
In the black Lincoln, Marco smiled endlessly. After sitting for a while, he began to eagerly make plans with Carl.
“What kind of surprise should I prepare for her? Clothes, jewelry? She doesn’t lack any of those…”
Carl, realizing that Marco still had much to learn about how to woo a woman, chimed in with a suggestion, “Miss Torres may not lack ordinary jewelry, but you can get her a one-of-a-kind, custom- designed piece!
You should consider the work of the renowned jeweler, Laims, who has worldwide acclaim and has even designed jewelry for royal families. Her creations are incredibly rare and difficult to obtain. Acquiring one would undoubtedly demonstrate the depth of your love for Miss Torres!”
Marco’s brows eased as he felt an instant sense of relief. Without hesitation, he made a firm decision. “No matter the cost, get one of
Laims’ designs before the celebration banquet begins. I want Loraine to have nothing but the best!”
Carl agreed with Marco’s decision and promptly instructed the driver to head back to the company.
Meanwhile, at the Bryant family’s residence, Marina clutched her phone tightly with a distressed expression on her face, sighing repeatedly.
Since issuing the apology statement, she had been feeling gloomy. She couldn’t shake the feeling that she had lost face within the circles of the rich families, and that her few friends were avoiding her.
Only Colette stuck by her side, persistently trying to find a way to gain favor with Marco by engaging Marina in conversation about him at every opportunity.
This only served to make Marina grow even more irritated.
With a look of frustration on her face, she slammed her phone down, no longer willing to deal with Colette. Turning to Laura, she voiced her complaints, “Mom, why do we have to help Colette? Marco doesn’t like us at all, and now Colette is using us to win his forgiveness. I’m pretty sure he’ll be mad at us if he finds out about all this.”
Laura cast a disdainful glance at Marina and replied in an annoyed tone, “Can’t you see the bigger picture? You’re still too young and naive! There’s a lot you’re yet to learn! Now that Marco has cut us off
financially, we have no power in the Bryant family. In such a critical situation, we need to think of ourselves and come up with a plan!” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Pausing for a moment, she continued, “Although the Moreau family is not as powerful as it once was, they still possess some valuable assets.
Since Colette is so eager to please us, we might as well make good use of her!”
