<b>Chapter </b><b>26</b>
“Mr. Grant! I can’t believe I might actually get to meet Mr. Grant in person today,” one attendee gushed excitedly.
“I was so lucky to have secured an invitation to attend,” another chimed in
The buzz of conversation around Valerie made it impossible not in <b>overhear </b>the excited chatter about this Mr. Grant character. In her mind, Valerie thought in surprise, ‘Mr. Grant Could this be the same Mr. Grant I had to submit thatint letter before! Come to think of it, if it <b>weren’t </b>for his intervention, I might never <b>have </b>been able to get Dn to straighten out that order issue <b>so </b>smoothly.”
<b>Valerie </b>couldn’t help but be curious about the CEO who had helped her, and she wanted to join in the fun and festivities surrounding <b>his </b>arrival.
As Valerie tried to make her way towards where Mr. Grant had entered, she quickly realized the path waspletely blocked by the throngs of guests. She strained to catch a <b>glimpse</b>, but the sea of people made it impossible for her to even see who <b>this </b>CEO was, let alone make <b>out </b>any of his features<b>.</b>
Just moments ago, everyone was engaged in their own conversations, but with the <b>arrival </b>of the CEO, all eyes
eyes and attention were drawn to him. <b>making </b>him the undisputed center <b>of </b>attraction at the party.
The scene where the CEO of Noria Group appeared could easily rival that <b>of </b>a top celebrity. “Such a grand spectacle Valerie murmured to herself, her <b>words </b>just loud enough for a few of Noria Group’s female employees nearby to hear.
“<b>You </b>don’t know who Mr. Grant is, do you?”
“He’s more than just the CEO of Noria Group. The Grant family has always been the wealthiest in Kranson City, and Mr. Grant has been recognized as the mout capable business prodigy in Kranson City for fifty years. It’s safe to say that no one in the entire Kranson City would dare to oppose him if he spoke out

“Whether it’s the affluence of the Grant family or Mr. Grant, a true big shot, they’re simply unmatched by ordinary people. If anyone could marry Mr. Grant, they’d be a clear winner in life”
After these female employees finished speaking, they nced at Valerie’s badge and instantly showed disdain. “So, you’re from Arcton <b>Cars</b>, no wonder you’re <b>so </b>clueless”
They looked at each other, revealed <b>a </b>sneer, and then leisurely walked toward <b>the </b><b>crowd</b>.
Valerie didn’t mind. She was used to the fact that people from Arcton Cars had been treated poorly by the No Group since Arcton Cars was acquired by the Noria Group. In contrast, she found it interesting that the <b>CEO</b>, who was called “Mr. Grant,” was having a hard time. He was such a big character yet he was watched there <b>as </b>if he were a gori locked in a zoo.
Valerie decided not to go along with it. She was pregnant, and if she identally bumped into someone, she would be the one to suffer. She then picked up the cupcake and continued to eat it spoonfuls by spoonfuls
In fact<b>, </b>although there were lots of people at <b>the </b>party, those around Matthew automatically made way for him, so he walked through unimpeded. On one hand, this was due to the audience’s respect for the CEO of Noria Group; on the other hand, it was also because Matthew appeared unapproachable.
Matthew strode forward without looking around. He came to the meeting to host this important meeting, and he had other ns forter.
Suddenly, Charles <b>took </b>quick steps to his side. “Mr. Grant, Mrs. Grant appears to be present.”
Valerie! Why is she here? Matthew paused in <b>his </b>steps, his face frozen. Has she found out my identity and deliberately came to this big <b>asion</b>, wanting to use the opportunity to reveal my identity to force me to acknowledge her as my wife? She’s quite cunning
“Mr. Grant has been eating all this time. She doesn’t seem to realize you are here,” said Charles
Matthew <b>was </b>instantly speechless. Looking over in the direction Charles was pointing, he did see Valerie sitting alone at the <b>small </b>dining <b>table </b>rating the cupcake she was holding with relish and concentration.
For the first time, Matthew realized that he <b>wasn’t </b>even <b>as </b>important <b>as </b>the cupcakes.
