Chapter 545
Son-In-Law Madness
Chapter 545 Gifts Her A Company Below the stage, shocked expressions appeared on the faces of Linda and Leonard as well. âWhat did Donald just say?â Linda asked.
âI think heâs gifting a company to Jennifer, and it sounds like a valuable company.â Linda rolled her eyes at Leonard.
âWhat does that mean? How much is it worth? Did you not listen carefully earlier?â Leonard scratched his head awkwardly.
âI thought Donald was spouting nonsense, so I didnât really pay attention to him.â
After Donaldâs speech, there were barely any highlights left at the Supreme Gala. Most of them were Pollertonâs media outlets, who were present to hold interviews with the bosses in the business industry and were merely using the event to enhance the image. Getting off the main stage, Jennifer furrowed her brows as she said to Donald, âHow can you make a decision for me so casually? Iâm not fit to be a CEO.â
Shrugging, Donald replied, âHow do you know you arenât up to it when you have never been one?
Besides, whatâs there to be afraid of with me by your side?â
âBut Iââ
âNo buts,â Donald interrupted with a solemn expression.
âThe Dragon Fide Project isnât only my dream; itâs my grandpaâs too. Weâre getting remarried, and youâre soon the daughter-in-law of the Campbell family. Donât tell me you want me to shoulder this huge responsibility myself?â
âWhoâs the daughter-in-law of the Campbell family? I havenât agreed to it.â
Despite saying so, she could not contain her embarrassment. Just then, Linda and Leonard made their way over. Catching a glimpse of the gown on Jennifer, Linda was briefly stumped before she asked, âJenny, where did you get this gown? It looks pretty nice.â
âDonald bought it for me.â
âHe did?â Leaning in to take a closer look at the diamonds on Jenniferâs gown, Linda furrowed her brows.
âAre they real diamonds?â Leonard let out a cold snort and uttered, âDo you think Donald can afford to buy real diamonds? There are so many of them. One look is enough to tell that theyâre fake. Gosh, how embarrassing. How can you wear a cheap outfit like this in front of so many people?â
Linda initially thought that it was a rather stunning gown, but upon hearing Leonardâs words, she thought he made a lot of sense.
That must be a cheap and low-quality gown. No one will give a d*mn about it!
âJenny, isnât the Supreme Gala coming to an end soon? Come on, letâs go and have a drink with Mr.
Irving.â
Hearing that, Jennifer was visibly displeased.
âWhy should I go look for him? I only agreed to attend the Supreme Gala, and I did. I donât have any obligations to go and meet him.â
âHow can you be so disrespectful? Mr. Irving has been chasing you for so long. Even if you arenât interested in him and are getting ready to marry Donald tomorrow, greeting him is the least you should do. Donât you know the meaning of parting on good terms? You sure are an ill-mannered lady.â
I have got nothing to do with him, though. Thereâs no need for me to show any manners. However, at the sight of the expression on Lindaâs face, Jennifer immediately understood that Linda would definitely raise even more absurd requests if she did not do as Linda wished, so she sighed.
Fine, Iâll meet him then. It wonât take too much time, anyway. With that thought in mind, Jennifer wrapped her hands around Donaldâs arm and stepped forward. Unexpectedly, Linda stopped the man.
âWhat do you think youâre doing?â
âIâll go with Jennifer.â
âWho says youâre going? Are you still worried when there are two of us accompanying Jennifer? All right, thatâs enough. You two are getting remarried tomorrow.Thereâs no need to be in such a rush to stay together right now. You and do whatever needs to get done.â
Jennifer gave Donald a meaningful look, signaling to him that there was no need to worry since she would be back soon.
âOkay. Be careful then, Jenny.â
Jennifer nodded before leaving the event venue with Linda and Leonard. As the Supreme Gala was held halfway up the mountains, there were several ways to get down. However, as Jennifer followed behind Linda and Leonard, she soon realized that they were moving further and further away from the chaotic event venue. This path feels so remote. Thereâs not even a streetlight around.
