The President's Darling Chapter 721
Caroline felt a little awkward. Initially, she had invited Layla and Suzanne to have a good chat. When she had realized that Suzanne knew James, she had been very happy. However, James just treated her like she was invisible. To diffuse the awkwardness, Caroline asked, "Suzanne, since you recognize James, why don't you two introduce yourselves to each other?" Then, she said, "You can't be rude, James. The Camberwells and our family have many collaborations. You're the president of Quigley Group, and Suzanne will take over Camberwell Group in the future. So, you two have to establish good connections with each other."Caroline spoke very seriously, and it seemed like an order. Actually, James knew what she was thinking, but he didn't expose her. After all, she was right. Quigley Group and Camberwell Group had many collaborations with one another. So, they had to introduce themselves to each other properly. He placed his fork down and looked at Suzanne seriously. "Hello, Ms. C

"James, why don't you drop Layla and Suzanne home after the meal?" Caroline wanted to give Suzanne and James an opportunity to talk to each other. However, James replied coldly, "I need to settle some problems in the company after this, so I'll get the driver to send them home.""A driver? You're so disobedient. How could I be at ease if the driver takes them home? Moreover, you're the president of Quigley Group, and you have to collaborate with the Camberwells. You should seize the opportunity to interact well with Suzanne." Caroline's voice became stern; it seemed like she would become furious if James refused her orders. Layla said, "Yes, Mr. Quigley. Our families are on good terms with each other. After Suzanne takes over Camberwell Group, you two will dominate Rosseera City's finance sector. "The Camberwells and the Quigleys were close with one another and had to collaborate frequently, so James couldn't reject the suggestion. Since it involved work, he could only agree t

Suzanne had just returned from overseas, so she hadn't known that James was married. If not for the call earlier on, she would have assumed that James was single. Caroline wanted to smooth things over, so she smiled tenderly. "James is married, but his partner isn't that perfect yet. We're still keeping an eye on her."Her words evidently implied that she disliked Summer. Yet, James replied coldly, "I like Summer, and I'll like her forever."The mood was ruined, and everyone became unhappy. No one knew what to say. That was exactly what James had wanted; he had wanted everyone to know that he was married so that they wouldn't come up with any strange ideas. After finishing the meal, James dropped Suzanne and Layla home. Yet, none of them spoke in the car. Layla and Suzanne knew that James was upset, so they didn't dare to speak at all. Once they returned to the Camberwell residence, Suzanne became very angry. She complained, asking, "Mom, what's going on? Why is James marri

Suzanne and Caroline had spoken a lot when Suzanne had visited the Quigley residence. Both of them had a good relationship with each other. So, Suzanne was certain that if she got together with James, the Quigleys would approve of her. But would James choose her? Suzanne replied, "James and Summer seem to love each other a lot. A marriage involves two people. Even if Aunt Caroline likes me, it won't help.""Caroline likes you, so she will help you. Do you think that you won't be able to defeat Summer?""That's not it." Suzanne was confident of her abilities. When she had been in Mystoria, many rich scions had wooed her relentlessly. After she had returned to her native country, she had also received invitations from many prestigious families in hopes that she could go on a blind date with their sons. So, she was definitely more attractive than Summer.Finally, Suzanne made up her mind. "I got it, Mom. I'll try my best to get what I want. Since I like him, I'll have to work h

At this moment, the phone on the table buzzed. It was a text from James that read: "Darling, can I pick you up after work tonight?" There was a heart emoji at the end of the message.After they had gotten married, James had learned to be romantic. Now, he often made plans for them to go out for dinner, which was quite nice.Although cooking and eating together at home was a good experience, dining out added more to the atmosphere.Summer quickly replied to the text with one word: "Okay."Honestly, she was looking forward to dinner that night. It had been a month since they had gone out for dinner together. But it wasn't entirely Summer's fault. Every night, she had to go to the Quigley residence to endure Caroline's torturous training. She barely had the time to have dinner with James, let alone go out.Since she had decided to go out for dinner, she needed to ask Caroline for leave.Before the training had started, Caroline had told Summer that she would have four days off each month

But since she had already decided not to go, there was nothing she could do. She called James and explained the situation.She couldn't tell him that she had to attend classes in the Quigley residence, so she pretended like she had work to do at the company and couldn't join him for dinner.After explaining, Summer repeatedly apologized. She genuinely felt sorry toward James, who had always been accommodating her throughout their marriage.James responded in a gentle, pampering tone, "It's okay, Summie. If you have something to do, go ahead. Our date is not urgent; we can go out another time.""Okay, then… Let's each focus on our own work. Take care of yourself, and don't overwork.""Okay."After she hung up, the office became quiet once more.In the president's office of Quigley Group, James wasn't as disappointed as expected. Instead, he was smiling, seemingly filled with joy.His secretary, Xyla, wondered what he was smiling about. She asked, "Mr. Quigley, did something good

On the other end of the phone, Suzanne sounded hasty—she even sounded a bit nervous. She was a confident woman. However, she would become unusually anxious when speaking to James. She sat on her sofa at home and waited for his reply. James was hesitating as well. Since this was not a small project, he couldn't believe that David Camberwell handed it over to his daughter. The Xomus Business and Trade Tower was the biggest joint venture between Quigley Group and Camberwell Group. Their goal was to build the first-ever entertainment and cultural center in the country. The building was 150 levels high. It was easily one of the tallest buildings in Rosseera City.Even for the Quigley Group, the Xomus Tower project was extremely significant. How could the Camberwell Group put Suzanne in charge of such an important contract?If that was the case, he couldn't possibly reject her now. He had to separate professional matters from his private life."Oceanview Restaurant, Ms. Camberwell.

James preferred quieter settings. Especially since they were here to discuss the contract, he would rather just book out the entire place. Additionally, he had security guards stationed outside the building, too. He didn't cause such a commotion because he thought highly of Suzanne. Instead, he chose to do so because he valued the contract greatly. The project was worth hundreds of billions of dollars and was one of Quigley Group's most important ones.He was seated as he waited for her arrival. Suzanne was punctual as well. She was wearing a white mini-dress that showed off her legs. Her slender figure and silky hair made her look elegant and refined, reflecting the poise of an upper-class woman.She approached James. "Hello, Mr. Quigley. I hope I'm not late.""Not at all," he responded as he pulled out the chair for her. As a gentleman, he would've done so regardless of who was on the receiving end. After they were both seated, he delved straight into the business. "The total
