Chapter 2617
"So what Renee said was true! There are plenty of other families that want to work with Cynthion Group. Grandfather, what
should we do now?" Hugo asked worriedly and felt just as pressured as Caleb was.
"Don't panic! We will cross that bridge when it comes to it! We are the most powerful family and we are better than these other
families. It won't be that easy for these people to win against us!" Jayden scoffed.
"You are one to speak! You were the one messing things up yesterday, or we would have secured the deal by now!" Caleb
reprimanded.
When Hugh arrived at the Morrisons' mansion, he came sincerely hoping to seal the deal. However, Jayden acted arrogantly and
tirelessly and encouraged the others to fight for more profit, causing the negotiation to go sour.
However, since Jayden was the leader of the second generation in the Morrisons and had great talent, Caleb and the elders
always valued him.
Caleb and the elders were also responsible for what happened, so Caleb did not blame Jayden before this.
Still, Jayden did not reflect on his mistakes and remained arrogant, which provoked Caleb.
He glared daggers at Jayden and his expression darkened.
"I-" Sensing his father's anger, Jayden quieted down.
"Grandfather, don't get upset. Hugh already said that he will prioritize US as partners. Since you are already here, I'm sure
Cynthion Group will work with US and not anyone else so long as we are sincere," Renee consoled him.
After the night before, she could tell that Leon was an understanding person and since Leon agreed to prioritize the Morrisons as
potential partners, she trusted that Leon would not go back on his words.
However, that would be possible only if the Morrisons displayed a sincere attitude and stopped acting rudely like they did the day
before.
"Yeah, you're right! It's a good thing that I came or your uncle would have screwed everything up!" Caleb said.
When he initially planned to come to the hotel in person, Jayden stopped him. Thankfully, he received the third elder's call in time
and decided otherwise.
All the other influential families were fighting for the opportunity to work with Cynthion Group and everyone here was either
heads or elders of the families.
If the Morrisons were represented by just Jayden and Hugo, it would look as though they were not keen at all, and they would
not be able to rival the others.
With that thought in mind, Caleb felt glad and cast Jayden another glare again, silently blaming him for coming close to messing
things up.
"Father, I didn't expect Cynthion Group to be so powerful. I didn't mean to," Jayden said sheepishly.
If he knew that would happen, he should have never asked to come along and would not have been reprimanded by Caleb.
He practically brought this upon himself.
