Not My Husband Anymore novel Chapter 161

chapter161

Seeing the gentleness return to Claudine’s eyes, a faint smile appeared on his face.

He picked up a piece of sweet and sour rib and placed it on Claudine’s plate.

“Mr. Colton originally favored the Hogan Group, but…”

He paused and looked at Clayton.

“Mr. Colton means that the air passenger project is a new technology, and his R&D team is made up of young people. He was initially interested in the Hogan Group because he heard that my elder brother had done a lot of research in this area, especially after seeing the AI smart glasses his company launched in the first half of the year.

But today, Mr. Colton learned that my brother’s company has always operated independently and has no connection with the Hogan Group.

So, Mr. Colton’s intention is to cooperate with my brother on this project.”

As he spoke, Damian glanced at his watch.

“At this time, Mr. Colton should already have arranged to have dinner with my brother.”

The dining room fell into a brief silence.

Clayton understood now-Damian was colluding with that good-for-nothing son of his!

And who was pulling the strings behind all this?

He glanced at Claudine.

Who else could it be but this daughter!

Sensing Clayton’s gaze, Claudine looked up and curved her lips into a smile.

“Dad, why are you looking at me like that?”

With Claudine’s words, everyone at the table turned to look at Clayton.

Bridgette had already been upset by her husband’s disrespect, and now, seeing Clayton glaring fiercely at her precious daughter, her anger only grew.

“Why are you glaring at your daughter!”

Claudine chimed in from the side.

“Dad, are you upset because my brother landed the Walters Group deal?”

Damian said, “How could that be? Dad can only feel proud of big brother.”

Watching this couple echo each other’s words, what else could Clayton not understand!

All that talk about divorce!

It was all just a trick on him!

But would he dare lose his temper in front of Damian?

He wouldn’t dare!

Clayton suppressed his anger and forced a laugh.

“Ben’s company is small and just had some trouble. The Walters Group’s deal is so big, the risks are too high for their company. I think it would be better if…”

Claudine said, “It would be better to let my brother join the Hogan Group and sign the contract with the Walters Group in the name of the Hogan Group.”

“No way!”

Clayton blurted out, only realizing afterward that he had refused too quickly.

Facing his wife’s suspicious gaze, he explained.

“Ben has his own ambitions and wants to start his own business. How could I, for my own selfish reasons, ask him to give up his company and come to the Hogan Group to help me?”

Even Clayton himself felt this excuse was far-fetched.

He took the opportunity to drink, hiding the evasiveness in his eyes.

Although Bridgette didn’t understand business matters, she knew one thing: in the end, the Hogan Group would be- long to her son and daughter.

Claudine had no interest in business, but Benjamin was different.

“I think Claudy makes sense. You’re getting on in years, and it’s time for Ben to come back and help you.

You used to say Ben was young and needed experience outside, but now that he’s proven his ability, let him come back and take over the Hogan Group. Then you can finally get some rest.”

Clayton still wanted to find another excuse to refuse.
