My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 860

Duncan and his posse entered the Lee family residence. Olivia smiled and welcomed them, "Mr. Duerson, your visit is an honor. Please forgive us for not meeting you at the gates.”

Duncan smiled politely, hands in his pocket. "I came uninvited, Ms. Olivia, please don't mind."

Olivia bowed respectfully. "I’ve had some tea prepared. Please have some, Mr. Duerson.”

Duncan felt extremely comfortable here. Olivia was the daughter-in-law of the Lee family, one of the top ten families in Capiton. She was well-received in the business community in Jonford. In the past, she looked down on him, but now she had lowered herself humbly before him, just like how she treated Nash with respect. This was what he wanted to achieve.

In the living room, Duncan and his three associates sat on the sofa, drinking tea. Duncan frowned and asked, "Is your father not at home?"

Olivia hurriedly explained, "My father is out with my grandfather for a walk. I am in charge of both the family and the company."

Duncan relaxed his brows and then explained the purpose of his visit. "I have established a Jonford Business Alliance. Currently, the Watsons and the Zells have contributed 70% of the shares as startup capital. Would you be interested in joining, Ms. Olivia?"

Olivia was Theo’s woman. Although she no longer feared the Skye family, she also did not want to invite unnecessary trouble. She planned to expand the business alliance to Capiton once she established her influence in the Jonford business community.

Smiling, Olivia said, "Sure, Mr. Duerson, just give me the contract."

She understood she could not resist the Duerson family. With the Watson and Zell family already having lost, she had little choice but to comply.

Duncan had someone hand over the contract to Olivia. Glancing over it casually, she noted that it was about developing Jonford. Duncan had established a business alliance to support small and medium-sized enterprises in Jonford using startup capital contributed by various families. In case of the alliance's closure, the risk would be shared among the families. The profits, however, were not explicitly mentioned.

In essence, this was an excuse for a robbery.

Olivia sighed inwardly and picked up a pen to sign her name at the designated place. Duncan took the contract, smiled satisfactorily, and said, "You’re a wise person. Come to the Business Alliance for tea when you have time!"

Theo chuckled. “Nash must have given them a good slap on the face. They’ll leave this mess in Jonford to him to handle."

After chatting for a while, they ended the call. Olivia sat blankly in the living room, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, Duncan and his group returned to the estate. It was already two in the afternoon.

“It's getting late; let's head to the Sigur Cliff now,” Peter suggested.

Boris turned to The Swordsman and said, "Have you contacted the two mountain masters?"

Worried that the National Martial Bureau might intervene, they planned to invite the leaders of Black Wind Mountains to sit in. Since Boris had less influence in the Black Wind Mountains, The Swordsman took charge of contacting the Black Wind Double Kill.
