"Why are you thanking me again?" Alexander smiled at Amber. "You're my wife. This is what I'm supposed to do."
Amber blushed a little. She bit her lip and said, "Alex, were you just joking about the New Chesire Group thing?"
Alexander looked at his wife's shy smile. He said with a smile, 'Amber, I have a surprise for you." He looked affectionately into Amber's eyes.
Amber covered her mouth in shock. This must have meant Alexander was serious about it. Was this the surprise he prepared for her?
She knew that Alexander was rich, but forming a group to give it to her as a surprise was way too much!
If she were to accept it, she would never be able to repay him for the rest of her life!
Looking at her baffled reaction, Alexander did not explain much. He drove back to Belmont Hills.
Susanne only used the card that Caspian gave her for groceries. She was still very thrifty in all other aspects of her life.
The moment they entered, the aroma of delicious food wafted into his nose. It was all of Alexander's favorite dishes.
*Alex, Amber, go wash your hands and get ready for dinner!"
Patrick took off his reading glasses. He looked at Amber furrowing her eyebrows and said with a gentle smile, "I know you the best. Is something on your mind, Amber?"
"Dad, I... Amber hesitated for a while. In the end, she bit her lip and said, "Dad, I've resigned. From now onward, we're no longer part of the Chesire family. We have nothing to do with them either."
Patrick was first stunned, then he let out a long exhale. It was as if he had long predicted it. He looked relieved,
even.
"Amber, I support you wholeheartedly. Our family of four will live our lives as best as we can. We'll have nothing to do with the Chesire family!"
He put down his book and rubbed his temple. He used to stutter when he spoke in the past. At that moment, he could speak fluently and calmly. He seemed to have regained his confidence.
Amber blushed when she heard what Patrick said. "Dad, what are you talking about? We're a family of three... Patrick chuckled. He entered the dining room with Amber, only to see Alexander already happily enjoying the food. When he realized Patrick was sitting him, Alexander smilingly said, "Dad, I'll take you to go and get a haircut later. We'll head to the office tomorrow."
Patrick picked up his cutlery and furrowed his brow. 'To the office? Hasn't Amber resigned?"
Alexander smiled and said casually, "We've formed the New Chesire Group. You'll be the Chairman, and Amber is the General Manager."
Patrick's mind buzzed. He shuddered and almost dropped his cutlery.
The New Chesire Group? He was the Chairman? Was Alexander drunk? He had not seen him drinking. Patrick turned to look at Amber. His son-in-law might be joking, but his daughter would never lie to him. Amber looked a little lost and was equally confused. She did not know how to explain it to her father. "Dad, with you and Amber's capabilities, in less than half a year, our New Chesire Group will be the leading business in all of Ol' Mare," Alexander said with a smile.
Amber pouted. She looked at Alexander and scoffed. He was always so slick. How could it be that easy to make a
company grow big?
Patrick shuddered so badly that he had to put his cutlery down. He only managed to calm down after a long while. He was over the moon. Ever since he started limping, the Chesire family gave him no chance. He tried to prove himself to Sir Chesire, but it was still not enough to compete with Neil.
He was utterly disappointed. Never would he have expected that the person who gave him a chance was the loser of a son-in-law he used to despise the most.
Patrick looked at Alexander with reddened eyes filled with gratitude.
"It's not a big deal, Dad." Alexander looked at the emotional Patrick and said with a gentle smile, "I'm Amber's husband and your son-in-law. I believe in you. I'm sure you'll do well!'
