Soon, the security guards outside entered the meeting room.
Paul knew that Jonathan was serious this time. Paul waved his hands to prevent the security guards from getting close and looked at Jonathan with resentment.
Paul shouted, “Jonathan, I am your father. Why do you have to be so cruel to me?”
Hearing this, Jonathan looked at Paul and sneered.
Jonathan continued, “I didn’t mean to compete for the company. If you just worked as the CEO and never interfered with my business, I wouldn’t have done this. But you cared about too many things and wanted to destroy my relationship. It can’t be blamed on me.”
Hearing this, Paul realized what was going on.
It turned out that Jonathan had known Paul had gone to see Reina. Paul immediately changed the subject and described himself as a loving father.
Paul said, “Jonathan, I’m doing this for your own good. As the heir of the Frost family, if you are with a woman with no powerful background, she will only drag you down. I’m worried about your future.”
Paul appeared sincere, but Jonathan had already seen through his real intention.
Jonathan only felt it ridiculous.
“Don’t make yourself sound so noble.” With that, Jonathan approached Paul step by step and looked down at him.
Jonathan said, “You don’t want to hand over the company to me, and you want to use me to help the company by my marriage. Now that the company needs to be saved with my marriage under your management, I think it is time for you to step down.”
After saying that, Jonathan ordered the security guard to take Paul out.
Paul began to regret it. He struggled hard.
At the same time, Paul shouted, “As long as you don’t interfere with the business, I promise not to disturb you
and Reina again. You can do what you want.”
Jonathan said, “Too late.”
Jonathan was determined.
Because of Paul, Jonathan had left a very bad impression on Omar. If Jonathan wanted to be with Reina in the future, he had to win Paul’s favor. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Since Paul used his identity as the Frost family member to demean Omar and Reina, Jonathan

would take over the Frost Group and give it to Reina as a betrothal gift.
Maybe doing this would dispel Omar’s worries.
Soon, Paul’s voice disappeared from the meeting room.
Jonathan sat on the main seat and glanced coldly at the people present.
An invisible pressure spread in the meeting room.
Jonathan said, “From now on, I’m the CEO of the Frost Group. You have been working for Paul for many years. If you want to follow him in the future. I will give you a generous reward and let you go. If you want to stay here, I will treat you fairly
As soon as Jonathan finished his words, the executives expressed their opinions.
illing to follow you.”
Someone said, “We are willing to follow
Hearing their words, Jonathan smiled sarcastically.
Jonathan thought, ‘Paul is really a failure. He has been running the company for so many years, but he doesn’t have any confidants.
Jonathan then officially became the CEO of the Frost Group.
In the following days, Jonathan didn’t go to Reina but buried himself in the business and soon took full control of the company.
Jonathan originally planned to find Reina after the company turned better.
However, Jonathan learned that Omar was arranging blind dates for Reina.
Jonathan was so nervous.
He went straight to the Murphy residence.
At the moment, Reina and Omar were sitting next to each other. Opposite Reina was a thin man named Terry Norton who was more than 5 feet 7 inches tall and dressed in a cheap suit. Next to him was Mara Williams, the matchmaker.
“Terry is a talented young man. He studied abroad and earns a lot now. He’s considerate and sweet. You will be very happy if you are with him,” Mara praised Terry continuously.
Reina kept a polite smile on her face but complained in her heart.
Although the matchmakers would exaggerate the truth, Reina thought Mara had g
too far.
Since Terry arrived, he had shown ill manners of speaking and doing things. He was completely self–centered and looked down on the small house.
How could Reina be happy with someone like him?

Just as Reina was thinking about how to refuse, Terry showed his superiority again.
He said first, “Although your family is not rich and you have a disabled father, you look pretty and I like your appearance. Your job is not bad. You should be able to match me.”
Hearing this, Reina wanted to roll her eyes.
What was on this man’s mind?
If it weren’t for the fact that Mara had been a neighbor for many years and Reina didn’t want to embarrass Mara, Reina would definitely have kicked Terry out.
Finally, Reina took a deep breath to suppress her impulse and forced a smile.
Reina said, “In fact, I don’t think we are suitable for each other…”
Before Reina could finish her words, Terry interrupted her again as if he hadn’t heard her.
Terry said arrogantly, “I won’t give you any betrothal gifts when we get married. But you must pay the dowry. I think your house is too shabby. It should be sold after we get married and you can move in with me.
“Besides, I like going Dutch, so you have to pay half of the expenses after we get married. If you and your dad move into my place, you have to pay the rent.”
Reina almost laughed when she heard Terry’s words. She believed he was really shameless, but she didn’t hurry to refuse him. She asked, “Why should I sell my house to pay rent for you?”
Terry said, “It’s your choice to marry me. After we get married, you should live with me. Besides, you need to take care of your disabled father. My mom has been paralyzed for many years due to a stroke, so you can take care of them together.”
That was incredible,
Reina doubted her ears.
She asked, “You mean to let me take care of your mother?”
Terry said, “As a daughter–in–law, it’s what you should do.” Terry took it for granted and continued, “It’s your responsibility. I won’t give you any help or money. You have to take good care of our child in the future.”
Hearing this, Reina showed a gloomy look.
She said, “So I have to sell my house and take care of a paralyzed patient who has nothing to do with me after I marry you. This is not marriage. It’s obvious that I am asking for pain.”
“Well, you can’t say that.” Terry seemed to not understand Reina’s meaning and continued arrogantly. “It is your duty as daughter–in–law to take care of your mother–in–law.”
As Terry finished his words, Omar couldn’t help but slam the coffee mug on the table and look at

Mara seriously.
Omar said, “Where on earth did you find such a madman? Even if Reina didn’t get married for the rest of her life, she wouldn’t marry into such a family and suffer.”
The others in the room were startled by Omar’s loud noise.
Terry’s expression just now was still calm. But now, he stared at Omar fiercely as if he was going to hit Omar in the next second.
Fortunately, Mara reacted quickly and smoothed things over in time.
Mara said, “Omar, women should be filial to their parents–in–law after they get married. But Terry is a little explicit, but he didn’t mean any offense. You can’t let your daughter miss such a good marriage just because of anger.”
