Chapter 1188 Not as Innocent as She Seems
Desmond instinctively glanced toward Dalton, who sat in the back
seat of the car, maintaining his usual poised demeanor as if he were posing for a business magazine.
He set down the water in his hands and said nonchalantly, “Just answer her questions.”
Desmond was taken aback. He hadn’t expected that Dalton would allow Wynter to know about company matters. It seemed the rumors were completely unreliable.
The rumors suggested that Dalton had only approached Wynter due to their previous marriage arrangement. Otherwise, Dalton wouldn’t have withdrawn from the engagement then.
Now, it seemed that those rumors were completely groundless.
Not only did Dalton accompany Wynter to Hawford, but it was also highly possible that he severed ties with the Clinton family during the conference for Wynter’s sake.
Dalton was practically legendary when it came to doting his wife. He was only one step away from handing over the company to her for management.
Was this the rumored wedding gift? There was no way Dalton would marry into another family, right?
Desmond shook off his inner turmoil and no longer hid anything. He told Wynter about the situation with Daryl and how much the Clinton family desired to become one of the decision–makers in the Southern
Cascadia Chamber of Commerce.
He even mentioned the recent changes within the Chamber.
The Clinton family had been consistently trying to win over major
aristocratic families. Among them, the most notable was the Wray family.
They were the first to propose the inclusion of internationalization of the Chamber of Commerce. They strongly supported increasing foreigners‘ and overseas Cascadians‘ participation.
Initially, the Southern Cascadia Chamber of Commerce flourished precisely because it received substantial help from Cascadians. abroad, which contributed significantly to its current influence.
This was the fundamental basis for the Wray family’s proposal. Other aristocratic families found it difficult to refute this argument.
After all, there were indeed many Cascadians overseas and those
studying abroad who helped out Cascadia during that particular
period by advocating vocally. Moreover, they donated significant
sums of money to the country.
At that time, it was the Quinnell family’s ancestors who were responsible for these matters. Therefore, there was no way to
overturn these facts. Anyone attempting to do so would be seen as disloyal or untrustworthy.
However, the current situation could not be compared to the previous
one.
Back then, Caleb was willing to risk everything to come back and
contribute to this land. Nowadays, many people left and never came
It was as the saying went, “Art knew no borders, but artists did.”
Any effort you put in for others could turn into a missile aimed at y own head in the future. Moreover, commercial warfare was often fought in the shadows.
Allowing foreigners to become decision–makers in the Southern Cascadia Chamber of Commerce would be tantamount to handi over all control to others.
If anything happened, there were potential consequences of losi control in business matters.
This was something even idiots could understand. The Wray fami couldn’t possibly be unaware, and neither could the other fools.
Yet, they were using Gordon’s methods to consolidate their own foundation, making it impossible for anyone to say a word.
Gordon was a wise man, so his original intentions couldn’t have been this. The Wray family must have done this deliberately. They intended to ascend by trampling on Gordon’s legacy.
Wynter’s eyes darkened upon hearing this. Perhaps she wasn’t aware that Desmond who was speaking was intimidated by her.
Desmond had previously viewed Wynter as an ignorant socialite who didn’t know much of worldly affairs.
He thought she was like the others he had seen before. The socialites loved gossiping, shopping, and buying bags.
Some even expressed interest in getting involved in their own family

that they had more than just beauty.
