Chapter 2611 Various Choices
Mitchell did not want to use such a despicable way to obtain cooperation.
However, he also knew that the business world was like a battlefield. This kind of interest replacement was very common.
As a staff of Ferguson Corporation, Mitchell should have spoken from Ferguson Corporation’s perspective.
Thus, saying these words was a bit out of character for Mitchell.
It felt like stabbing Stanton Corporation in the back. If Nicole found out, it would definitely be another bloodbath.
Then, they might lose everything.
There was always more damage done when two behemoths fought.
Eric pondered with a solemn face.
“You don’t need to worry.”
“Chairman Stanton’s birthday party will be held tomorrow in a villa in the city center. Should we still go?”
Mitchell asked.
If they went at this time, they would really be shameless.
However, Eric was always unpredictable.
Thus, Mitchell had to ask clearly before he prepared any gifts.
Eric raised his eyes and glanced at Mitchell.
“Of course. Pick a few gifts and tell Selena to be prepared.”
“Yes, sir.”
Since they knew that Floyd and Selena were not father and daughter, then they should formally apologize for what happened previously.
Selena also felt sorry for hurting Nicole because of this and was looking for a chance to make it up to her.
Floyd’s birthday banquet was grand.
Kai purposely made it very lively to lift Floyd’s spirits after being injured by Eric’s people.
He invited many of Floyd’s old friends in the business world as well as many singers and dancers.
It was more like a New Year’s Eve party.
Floyd was downstairs exchanging pleasantries with the guests when he saw a group of women dancing with their thighs exposed. He was truly horrified.
However, Kai was very satisfied with his arrangement.
It was a dazzling show which attracted many men and women to stop and appreciate it.
Floyd’s face was red from anger, but he could not scold Kai in front of everyone.
Floyd was cursing Kai a million times in his heart.
It was so shameful!
Finally, the formalities were done. After cutting the cake, Floyd could not wait to let everyone drink and have fun.
He tried to grab everyone’s attention from the stage.
However, it was not very effective.
Clayton walked over with a smile, took Floyd’s arm, and said, “Dad, this dance is a bit long. Shall we change it to a poetry reading instead?”
Floyd was taken aback for a moment. Then, he immediately praised his son-in-law’s taste.
“Yes, poetry reading is a traditional art that we should nurture the masses with. You have great taste! Much better than that idiot Kai!”
Floyd cursed in a low voice and added, “Change the program now!”
Clayton nodded with a smile, then asked someone to change the program.
Without the group of women flashing their thighs, the whole event felt a lot classier.
Kai was still a little disappointed. He came to Clayton angrily.
“Those girls are my company’s artists. They finally have a chance to practice their talent. Why did you change them out?”
Before Clayton could speak, Floyd pinched Kai’s ears and dragged him into the lounge.
“You little brat! Are you trying to mess things up? Do you think this is a bar or a club? This is my birthday party. I shouldn’t have left it to you. I’m about to get a heart attack!”
“Dad, please forgive me! Daddy!”
Kai was dragged into the lounge while holding his ear in pain.
“No one said anything. I bet they envy you!”
Clayton smiled and loosened his collar. Instead of following them inside, he turned to look for Nicole.
Unexpectedly, Eric brought his wife here.
Clayton raised his eyebrows slightly. If Eric had not gotten married, Clayton would not have left Nicole’s side at ease.
“Mr. Ferguson, it’s great to have you here.”
When Clayton returned to Mediania two days ago, he heard that Eric and Floyd had a very unpleasant row.
Clayton thought that Eric would not come, but he clearly underestimated Eric’s thick skin every time.
Eric glanced at Clayton lightly.
“Sorry to disappoint you. I’m here.”
Every time the two men met, there was an inevitable tension between them.
Perhaps they were natural enemies.
However, Selena had a good impression of Clayton. She smiled and nodded.
“Mr. Sloan, I haven’t congratulated you on your new baby!”
Clayton raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “We haven’t made an official announcement yet. It seems that you’re indeed very close with my wife that she will tell you this secret.”
Selena smiled. “I found out by chance. Shall I go say hello to her?”
“Sure. I’m just about to look for her. Shall we go together?”
Clayton stretched out his hand to lead the way.
Selena nodded and let go of Eric’s hand.
“Don’t you have your own business? You can go ahead and come find me later.”
Eric nodded and gave Clayton a meaningful look.
He was warning Clayton not to talk nonsense in front of Selena.
The waiter took Eric to the door of the lounge and left.
Eric stood there, knocked on the door, and pushed the door open when he saw the commotion inside.
Kai was kneeling in front of Floyd and hugging Floyd’s leg. Floyd could not even walk and was so angry that he was about to kick Kai away.
Seeing Eric standing at the door, Kai immediately stood up from the ground and tidied up his sleeves seriously. He had an indomitable indifference in his eyes.
“Hah! What a rare guest! What are you doing here again, Mr. Ferguson? Are you trying to find a chance to get my dad’s DNA sample to do a paternity test for yourself this time? Are you so obsessed about being my dad’s son-in-law?”
Floyd coughed and glanced at Kai speechlessly.
“Go out if you have nothing to do.”
Kai turned his head and stood there unconvinced.
“What if he bullies you after I leave? What if he pisses you off so much that you get a heart attack? I won’t leave!”
Floyd gritted his teeth. “You almost gave me a heart attack just now! Get out of here!”
Eric stood silently at the door and watched with an indescribably dark emotion in his eyes. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
He had always known how the Stanton family got along.
They were still the same after decades.
It seemed that they would never have any grudges between the father and children, let alone any schemes and calculations.
They dared to speak their mind and diss each other. They would never hide their emotions.
Indeed, they were an enviable family.
Kai could not disobey Floyd, so he could only straighten his collar and walk out.
He deliberately wanted to bump Eric with his shoulder, but Eric predicted it and dodged the moment Kai wanted to hit him.
Kai did not control his strength and bumped into the door frame instead.
He gasped in pain for a moment and clutched his shoulder miserably. Then, he stared at Eric angrily.
This damned Eric! Kai hated Eric a little more.
Eric looked at Kai with a sly smile, but he quickly restrained it.
“Are you alright? I didn’t know you would bump into me. Does it hurt?”
Kai was exasperated and thought, ‘When did Eric become so fake? He can act better than me!’
