Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife

Chapter 547 Despise

Upon hearing this, everyone except Henry looked at her in horror.

This woman was the devil. With a harmless smile on her face, she lightly said that she wanted to take down other people's companies to expand hers. Who was she if she wasn’t the devil?

Although everyone's purpose of being here was to take down other companies as well, they wouldn’t be so blunt.

It wouldn't be good to allude to anyone here with that bluntness.

All the businessmen here didn’t like to hear blunt words about annexing other people’s companies. After all, no one knew when their company would be annexed, so it was too straightforward to talk about annexing the company, which would upset others easily.

Yvonne had a panoramic view of everyone’s reactions.

She probably guessed what they were thinking, but she pretended to know nothing and looked at these people playfully. "What's the matter? Why are you all looking at me like this? Is there anything on my face?"

Everyone quickly retracted their gazes and shook their heads. "No, no."

This woman dared to speak out in front of so many of them, saying that she wanted to take down other companies to expand hers. She made it clear that she wasn't afraid of offending others or being targeted.

This showed that she either had a strong background or that she was a lunatic.

"That's what I thought. My makeup is perfect today, so how can there be anything on my face?" Yvonne touched her face.

Seeing her narcissistic appearance, everyone couldn’t help but twitch the corners of their mouths.

Henry suddenly asked, "Which company do you want t o take down?"

Yvonne took her hand off her face and said, "Do you have any prospects, Henry? Let me know if you have any prospects. I'm afraid that we'll be interested in the same company. If that's so, then I won't take it."

Henry shook his head gently. "That’s fine. I don’t want any."

He didn't come here to annex any of the companies.

He was here to ease Theo’s mother’s anger.

The others got excited and their eyes lit up when they heard that Henry didn't want to take down any company.

After all, there were so many people here, but only a few companies. Naturally, one couldn't take down a company by himself, so everyone was mentally prepared to divide the company equally among two or three people.

But when Henry showed up, they felt that the direction of things was different from what they initially thought. It was absolutely impossible for such a behemoth like the Lancaster Group to share equally with them. The Lancaster Group would want to take a company all by themselves, so the people here were prepared to give up a company too.

However, they didn't expect Henry to want nothing, so how could they not get excited? This piqued their interest.

"In that case." Yvonne pretended not to see the people's small movements — she tilted her head and thought out loud. "I want the Wadkins Group."

Everyone was shocked when she said this.

"The Wadkins Group?" Someone stood up and sneered, "Miss Smith, the Wadkins Group is the most powerful among the other companies. Your newly-established company in Vancouver hasn't even been listed yet. Can you afford to take it down?"

Henry frowned and looked up at the speaker, his eyes a little unpleasant.

He subconsciously didn't want to hear the sarcasm.

Yvonne didn't notice Henry's strangeness. She also looked at him with a bright smile, but her eyes were full of coldness. "Why can't I? What do you think is the last name of my energy company?” "Of course it's Smith... wait... Smith?" The man suddenly realized something and swallowed his saliva in shock. "Miss Smith, are you from that Smith family?"

Yvonne nodded proudly. "That's right!"

She was the daughter of the Smith family, so she had the right to be proud!

In addition to surprise, everyone here was also full of bitterness.

They didn’t expect this woman to be from the Smith family. They heard that the Smith family intended to expand their business in Canada, but they didn't know that it was true.

Before this, they never thought that this newly-established energy company was related to the Smith family, so they were now embarrassed.

"It turns out that Miss Smith's energy company is a subsidiary of the Smith Group. As for the Wadkins Group, we won’t compete with you anymore, Miss Smith.” The person sat back in disbelief.

Yvonne snorted coldly, "Compete? You guys can’t compete with me. Even if I'm not a Smith, you guys wouldn't be able to do that."

"Why do you say so, Miss Smith?" Some people were dissatisfied. "If you’re not a Smith, your energy

company is just a small, unlisted company. How can

you say that we won’t be able to compete with you?"

Henry looked at Yvonne too.

Yvonne noticed it and she winked at him mischievously.

Henry’s handsome face was suddenly startled and his ear tips were a little hot.

Was this woman teasing him?

Everyone present saw Yvonne's small movements.

They seemed to understand something and suddenly looked down on Yvonne in their hearts - even the look in their eyes became contemptuous.

"Miss Smith, you said that you can take down the Wadkins Group without using your family's identity. I s it because Mr. Lancaster has your back?"

"What?" Henry squinted his eyes at the speaker.

Faced with his indifferent eyes, the man was a little scared, but he didn't retreat, so he continued, "Miss Smith said that you and Mr. Lancaster are close partners, so I’m thinking perhaps if Miss Smith doesn't always rely on the Smith family, you're relying on Mr. Lancaster instead."

Yvonne encircled her arm with a smile on her face," You should straight-up say that I'm relying on a man."

The man turned away in embarrassment, but he was shouting in his heart.

This woman was really a devil, as expected. She dared to speak so frankly.

Yvonne sneered, "Sure enough, you really think so."

Those people were too guilty to look at her.

Yvonne put her hand on Henry's shoulder. "Henry, they're saying that I rely on you. What do you say?" Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"No." Henry adjusted his sitting posture. His eyes swept at the crowd and his voice became louder." You're not relying on me."

Yvonne pretended to be wronged. "But they don't believe it."

Henry closed the document in front of him and threw i t directly at the person nearest to him. "Look at this. This is Miss Smith's plan to take down the companies."

The person who got the document didn't dare to ignore him and opened the document obediently.

When he opened it, his eyes were filled with astonishment when he saw the content. "This... this is the plan that Miss Smith came up with?"

Yvonne smiled silently.

The others couldn't help it anymore and stretched necks over to see what kind of plan it was, which changed their attitude.

They were all silent when they saw it. They had nothing more to say and they didn't despise Yvonne anymore. The plan was so perfect that they couldn't

wait to implement it right now.

Henry said abruptly, "Are you guys done?"

All of them nodded. "Yes, yes."

"What else do you guys have to say?" Henry looked at them.

Everyone coughed and apologized to Yvonne.

Yvonne waved her hand and a calculating light flashed in her eyes. "Okay, since you guys are wrong, how about you guys get this plan started?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other. It seemed like they wanted to say something, but they didn't.

On the other hand, Henry, who was at the side, suddenly understood something and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

She did it on purpose, didn’t she?
