Chapter 10: Siblings

As tensions rose at the dinner table, not only were the Marshall Group’s staff upset, but even Sarah’s team members found it hard to maintain their composure. Under the table, Sarah’s assistant discreetly tugged at Ylah’s sleeve, urging her to ease the situation.

However, Ylah appeared determined not to back down and maintained her defiant posture. Imogen, staying composed, calmly asked, “So, you’re suggesting that Grandpa Henry only cares about business relationships and not emotional ones, Ms. Willy?”

Ylah’s face stiffened, and she quickly defended herself, “No, that’s not what I meant.”

Just then, the door opened, and Troy and Sarah entered side by side.

Troy, with his striking looks and prestigious background, and Sarah, beautiful and successful in her career, made an envinducing pair. Everyone couldn’t help but admire them together.

The product manager leaned over to Imogen and whispered, “Mr. Marshall and Ms. Page make a perfect match.”

Imogen’s heart pricked, and she forced a smile, standing up to welcome the two of them to their

seats.

“Mr. Marshall, you’re too kind. Please sit here. Sarah, join us as well,” Ylah said, taking the lead and arranging for Troy and Sarah to sit together.

Others also stood up to welcome them, and the atmosphere eased slightly.
