Don't Fall For Me, CEO-Chapter 1099: Sophistry!

"Dad, I never expected His Excellency Kidd to have such influence over so many people, I..."

Anna bowed her head, trying hard to apologize to Andre.

She didn’t want to become the abandoned child of a wealthy family, nor did she want the Pitt Family to decline. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

But Andre didn’t seem to listen to her apology and directly made a demand:

"What you should do now is not seek my forgiveness, but go find that woman, apologize to her, and try to please her."

"I won’t."

Anna immediately refused.

She could do anything else, but she just couldn’t and didn’t want to show humility in front of that woman.

"This is not a matter of whether you want to or not, but a matter of having to do it!"

Andre sternly warned, "If you don’t want to see me step down from this position, nor want your future to be insecure, you can choose not to go."

Anna gritted her teeth but eventually gave in.

"I understand. Once I tidy up my makeup and demeanor, I’ll go apologize to her."

Setting everything else aside, just the thought of her father not being able to stay in the top position was unacceptable to Anna.

She had been doing whatever she pleased, relying on her father’s status.

If her father lost that status, her own aura would fade as well.

Then those she had bullied before would surely seek revenge on her?

After weighing the pros and cons, Anna decided to back down.

"I’ll go investigate that woman’s residence now, remember to bring some gifts with you."

Andre continued to counsel on things to take note of after meeting her.

Anna sheathed her thorns and nodded repeatedly.

On the other side, after leaving the banquet, Kyle Keaton immediately pressed July Quinn against his car.

"Don’t do this, I still have things to do!"

July Quinn pushed Kyle Keaton, trying to get out of the car.

Besides accompanying Roman Kidd to the banquet today, she also needed to deal with the portion of assets thrown out by The Marsden Family.

The place and time to meet had been set, and July Quinn worried Kyle Keaton’s entanglement would disrupt her plan.

However, she didn’t expect her refusal to remind a certain someone of his poor performance this morning, causing his expression to turn as dark as a ghost from the underworld.

"Are you despising me for being incompetent? I’ve explained to you."

He was nearly grinding his teeth hysterically by July Quinn’s ear.

"I never said that, can you not relate everything to this?"

July Quinn felt a headache, how could he be so concerned about today’s performance?

She tried to comfort him, but it had little effect.

Look, he still argued, "You may not say it out loud, but you must be minding it in your heart."

"Which eye of yours saw me still minding it in my heart?"

"Both eyes saw it."

Kyle Keaton spoke, his hands not idle either.

In just a short time, his hands had successfully slipped under July Quinn’s clothing, preparing for a forceful take.

"Kyle Keaton, I’ve figured it out, you’re just using this as an excuse!"

July Quinn felt the defenses crumble, and angrily struggled.

Yes, she couldn’t stand him using a righteous face to do unseemly things.

But even being exposed, he showed no remorse, continuing to act recklessly.

"Yes, I’m just using it as an excuse! I’m telling you, if you don’t let me properly perform today, this matter won’t pass!"
