Chapter 782

Jared's face turned grave as he watched Chloe leave Glancing at the wineglass, he knocked back at once and put the wineglass aside in exasperation

"Let's go back. The time was almost up, and he took Nicole away when he finished dealing with stuff here.

"Okay." Nicole leaned closer to him with a gentle smile,

Feeling Nicole's hand put through his arm, Jared started to feel better

The two returned to the hall. When people saw the two come back arm in arm, they immediately and subconsciously made way for them.

Henry's expression turned grim at seeing the two of them attract so much attention. He had been eagerly waiting to see how Jared and Nicole would make an exhibition of themselves, but things did not go that way. The two of them were drawing more and more attention. Not only that, Nicole had found favor with Mr. Johnston Sr. and even rubbed shoulders with Sebastian Wyance. So he wondered who she really was and did not even know if it was right for Nicole and Jared to marry

Mr. Johnston Sr walked up to the stage and looked down at the crowd. He coughed and said, "Thank you for coming to the party, everyone I think you all have heard about it: I'm going to make an announcement in front of you all tonight."

His words immediately drew everyone, including the politicians and the rich kids around him. The Finleys, the McCarthys, the Wyances, the Holders, and other prominent families were all present. This was the moment they had been waiting for today. They wondered who would be the next heir to the Johnston family

Henry was excited, as this was the exact moment he had been looking forward to. But he was also apprehensive at the same time because he had not seen through what was on Mr. Johnston Sr.'s mind until now. He was really worried about something that he did not expect

Castor and Murphy had come beside Henry, hoping their father's dream would come true, and the two could keep their positions or even get promoted in the company.

Mr Johnston Sr. said from the stage, "I will hereby announce the heirs to Johnson Group and family."

Everyone swallowed hard. No one at the scene dared to speak, waiting for the announcement with bated breath

The Riddle family members were all anxious Their idea was that if Jared could become the heir, Nicole would become the lady of the Johnston family A rising tide lifts all boats, the Riddle family and everyone in it would rise to the top of the social circle in San Joto.

There were also many shareholders of the company present, all of whom nervously waited for the announcement. Most of them were pro-Henry. If Henry became the heir, they would also benefit from his rise After a moment of silence, Mr. Johnston Si continued. "My grandson, Jared, will be the heir to Johnston Group

The news came as a bombshell

'Wha17 Honry was the closest to the stairs, his eyes widening, thinking he had heard it wrong

Murphy and Castor were dumbfounded Especially Murphy, who could not help but ask, "Grandpa, did you say thr wrang name?

His question earned a knifelike look from Mr. Johnston Sr. "You shut up."

Murphy shut up at once after getting scolded
