Zoe stood dumbfoundedly as she heard the beep from the phone.

That was the head of the Severn family, a prominent figure in Ol‘ Mare, Bruno Severn!

The telephone operator transferred the call to Bruno himself?!

Zoe could not understand why Bruno attached such great importance to this collaboration, and he was even coming to visit the Chesire Group in person.

As Chesire Group Assistant General Manager, Zoe had no right to host Bruno; it had to be Donovan in person!

Susanne quickly rushed to Donovan, gasping for breath.

“Grandpa, you’re here!”

Donovan nodded slightly at Zoe, then shot a cold glance at Patrick and Susanne, grumbling under his breath. “The two of you better behave properly and sign the contract without any issue. Otherwise, you’ll have to answer me.”

Susanne nodded,
