Chapter 1447
For some reason, Nate felt an overwhelming urge to burst out laughing. The fact that Mr. Harper had such a down–
to–earth address was really amusing, and it was hard not for people to burst into laughter. He glanced at Mr.
Harper, and oh my, Damon’s secretly delighted and proud expression was simply
unbearable to witness.
Damon thought to himself, “Yes, not only have I found an exceptional wife in Chloe, but also an incredibly
remarkable mother–in–law in Yasmine.”
“I can’t stand certain insignificant individuals boasting their existence here. Presley, announce the results and end
this meeting. Continuing like this is just a waste of time,” Percy said.
Presley’s face turned pale, lips tightly sealed. He glanced at Damon, took a deep breath, and whispered, “I’ll ask
you one more time. Are you really willing to go this far for that woman? Are you really willing to offend the Alonso
family and give up your inheritance rights in the Harper family? Think carefully about your future…
“No need to think. You make your decision,” Damon replied.
Presley’s forehead veins bulged, his face flushed. With a cold smile, he said, “Fine. You have guts. Damon, I’ll grant
your wish. When you suffer because of that worthless woman, I’ll see how strong your backbone truly is. Robin, take
the position of the next chairman. The company will be under your full responsibility from now on. James, bring me
the share transfer documents.”
James, who had been standing behind Presley all along, nervously glanced at Damon, hoping he could salvage the
situation. However, Damon didn’t even spare him a glance.
“What are you staring at? Do you want to resign too?”

think this through. Once you make this decision, there’s no turning back.”
“Hmph! I’ve given him enough chances. I’ve said certain things to him so many times, and he hasn’t reflected on
anything. Why should think twice?!”
“But…”
“Get lost!” Presley waved his hand, pushing James aside.
Mr. Presley, please reconsider.”
“Yes. This decision is crucial for the future of the Harper family.”
“It’s precisely because it concerns the future of the Harper family that we can’t let a man easily swayed by a
woman have such power.”
“As the heir of the Harper Group, he should prioritize the interests of the Harper family. Even if Mr. Harper is
unwilling to marry Ms. Wendy, he should be willing to make sacrifices and concessions for the sake of the Harper
family when necessary. His stubbornness clearly shows a lack of responsibility toward the Harper family!”
Two groups of people argued with each other, each with their own claims. Presley was already furious, and upon
hearing these words, his expression darkened even more. He picked up a pen from the side, signed on the share
transfer document, and then forcefully threw the pen aside. Finally, Robin
smiled.
Presley stood up, leaning on his cane, and glared at Damon amidst the sighs of the crowd. “Without the support of
the Harper family, let’s see how you deal with the Alonso family. Don’t expect me to help you because of our
relationship…
Damon just smiled and didn’t respond.
At that moment, someone forcefully pushed open the door of the conference room.
“Oh my god. This atmosphere is absolutely terrifying.” A voice suddenly echoed at the entrance of the conference
room.
Everyone turned to look and saw Kane holding a bottle of hair gel, spraying it on his head while he ran his fingers
through his disheveled hair. His suit was full of wrinkles, the tie was loose and crooked, one button was missing from
his jacket, there were a few footprints on his pants, and his hair was clearly a mess. Now he was finally starting to
groom himself with the hair gel.
Everyone silently stared at Kane in his current state, not knowing what to say.
“What are you doing here?!” Presley was angry and not pleased with Kane’s presence.
Kane looked at his hair, which was now properly groomed, and began fixing his clothes. He glanced around the
conference room and saw Damon preparing to leave with Yasmine. He blinked and asked, “Has the meeting
ended?”
No one answered.
Instead, Nathan spoke up, “Kane, are you fleeing?”
That description is quite fitting, but no, it’s even scarier than fleeing… Be careful, all of you. The entrance of the
Harper Group is like a tourist spot during a long holiday. The journalists there are absolutely insane.”
Nathan frowned and stood up, walking to the window for a look. Despite being on a high floor, he could still see the
bustling crowd below and couldn’t help but curse, “Seriously, it’s just a meeting. Does it have to be this crazy? It
seems like reporters from all over the world are here.”
“How is that possible?” Several directors were skeptical and walked over to the window to take a look. They couldn’t
help but sigh.

“Why are there so many journalists?”
“There weren’t so many journalists last time we had the board meeting.”
“This is just an internal meeting of the Harper Group. How could it attract so many journalists?”
Presley also walked over, puzzled, and glanced at the crowded scene below, furrowing his brows. He turned to look
at Kane and asked coldly, “What
exactly has happened?”
Kane adjusted his tie, blinked at Presley, and then gestured with his hand, saying, “You guys don’t know yet?!”
“Know what?”
Kane shook his head, walked to the corner of the conference room, and found the TV remote control. He said, “It’s
such big news, and you still don’t know. It’s the State Banquet of the Y Country…”
Just now, major magazines and media outlets had released news one after another. Currently, both the internet
and television were discussing the same topic, with TV stations continuously broadcasting the news.
Before Kane could finish, the TV had already turned on.
At that moment, the live broadcast on TV showed the scene of the State Banquet in the Y Country, with Queen Julia
standing on the grand marble podium on the second floor. She was dressed in magnificent and regal attire,
symbolizing her status as the Queen. Queen Julia began speaking, and the camera focused on her.
“I believe everyone is aware that due to certain reasons, I lost my biological daughter. For over thirty years, I have
been unable to free myself from the fact that my daughter is forever absent from my life. I once told her that I
wanted to watch her grow each day and make her the most cherished, most beautiful princess in the world. I was
willing to give everything she desired…“
