After Betrayal: Lightning Marriage to Mr. Enigmatic
Chapter 156: The Style of the Hunter Family

Chapter 156: Chapter 156: The Style of the Hunter Family

"Nonsense! Our alliance with the Lewis Family is just a marriage arrangement; your mother was the same. The Hunter Family’s wealth today is all earned through sheer capability, not because of women!"

Leon Hunter despises being accused of relying on women for success, and his anger even alters his tone.

Harry Hunter doesn’t believe a single word. He knows exactly how his mother died, and he knows all his grandfather’s assets silently transformed into the Hunter Family’s, allowing it to reach an unparalleled peak in a short period!

"I won’t follow in your footsteps, marrying a woman I don’t love, exhausting her value, and then marrying the one I like, raising someone else’s son. It’s both foolish and laughable!"

"Utter nonsense! The dignified Hunter Family would never drain a woman’s value! I always respected your mother; it was just a business alliance. Your grandfather’s company went bankrupt due to mismanagement, it had nothing to do with the Hunter Family!"

"Such lies might deceive outsiders, but there’s no need to tell these flawed lies in front of me."

Harry’s eyes redden. He recalls his grandfather saying before he died, regretting most was letting his daughter marry into the Hunter Family. Yet his mother said she never regretted marrying into it, that she loved Leon Hunter deeply and gave everything for him, paying a heavy price.

However, just half a year after her death, Leon Hunter married a new wife, daily laughter never-ending, love so sweet as if his previous wife never existed.

Despite being young at the time, Harry was precocious, and his heart was like being stabbed with a knife, his personality changed dramatically, never wanting to grow close to Leon Hunter again.

"Alright, enough of you two arguing over old grievances. The most important thing now is to go to the Lewis Family and pick someone up. Harry, I heard Mayor Charles trusts you a lot over there, you’ve done well. It’s stable over there; bring your grandmother back home!"

Even though Ben Hunter had softened his tone, Harry remained unmoved, cold and indifferent like an untouchable iceberg: "Since when did the Hunter Family become this sentimental? Aren’t they the ones who used their sons and grandsons for money? Bringing the old lady home doesn’t fit the Hunter style. Show some benefits, then talk to me; otherwise, forget it."

He hung up the phone expressionlessly and began handling the backlog of documents.

Star Region Group is a giant. He wrested control from Leon Hunter, but there are still those who are dissatisfied, creating trouble for him, both false and true.

He and Isabella Weaver worked until dawn. After having breakfast together, Isabella Weaver returned to the bedroom to catch up on sleep, while Harry went out to negotiate a partnership without resting.

The real estate company under Star Region Group plans to set roots in N City, and the breakthrough lies with Mayor Charles.

The stronger his capability, the more projects he secures, and the more people within the group are willing to follow him, making managing the company more seamless.

In comparison, Harry worries the least about the Hunter Family’s fixed assets, half of which were his grandfather’s and later annexed by the Hunter Family under Leon Hunter’s name.

Those were part of his mother’s dowry and inheritance. According to inheritance law, Leon Hunter is the primary heir, while he, as the son, ended up with nothing.

Harry is determined not to let those things fall into others’ hands; he has been gradually reclaiming them.

Noon.

Isabella Weaver wakes up, not seeing Harry.

She asks Connor and learns that Harry went out for a meeting.

"He went out like this after not sleeping all night?"

"Yes."

"Does he often do this?"

"Yes."

Isabella Weaver feels a bit heartbroken: "Isn’t this crazy? How can his body bear it?"
