Lost Me Gained Regret Read Online Novel
Chapter 468

Gregory's face remained unchanged, his smile growing even more mocking. "You're so sure that Bryant will team up with you?"

"He might not want to team up with me."

Palmer was confident. "But if teaming up with me means he can take down you, his rival in love, why wouldn't he?"

Bryant didn't even have to lift a finger himself. Just handing Palmer a contract would be enough. Palmer would become Bryant's weapon, forcing Gregory into a corner. Palmer thought to himself, sure, SZ Technology has made waves for just over two years, but compared to RF Group, they're still small fry.

Gregory chuckled coldly, "Hold your horses before you boast, or you'll end up having to grin and bear it when things go south."

"What do you mean?"

"I've got news you haven't heard yet."

Gregory, lounging on the couch, leisurely informed the Ford family, "SZ Technology and RF Group just signed a strategic partnership."

He crossed his legs, tapping his knee absentmindedly, the picture of calm. "The deal was sealed this morning. No wonder you haven't heard."

"What?!"

Klein's face went pale! He glared at Palmer, furious, "Are you useless? How could you miss such critical information?!"

The partnership between SZ Technology and RF Group signified one thing: The Ford Group's Al project was doomed!

He had been so pleased with Palmer's performance over the past two years, ready to hand over the reins completely! And now, this incompetence.

Palmer, although taken aback, tried to keep his composure. "Dad, don't just take his word for it! With the animosity between them, Mr. Ferguson supporting SZ Technology over us seems unlikely!"

At this point, the RF and Gregory partnership was essentially RF backing SZ Technology unilaterally. Impossible. What man would help his ex-wife's current partner? Madness.

But Klein, unable to stay calm any longer, didn't care about ruining the family dinner, "You two, upstairs with me now!"

This wasn't just about a potential billion-dollar loss. It was about the Ford Group's prospects for the next decade. In today's competitive world, one project's failure could

mean falling behind forever

"I'll pass." Gregory remained seated, indifferent to Klein's anger. "I've only got half an hour. After that, even if you tried to hand over the Ford Group to me, I wouldn't take it."

He had a new bride at home who would worry if he was late! Still, his words were a tough pill for Klein to swallow.

Klein exploded, "What kind of attitude is that?! Two years out there and you think you can disrespect me like this?!"

Gregory just laughed, unconcerned. "And what if I do?"

A father who favored a bastard son over him, taking everything from Gregory. Now, what right did he have to expect any respect?

In Gregory's eyes, respect was

earned through kindness and love. Without that, it didn't matter if you were his father or Confucius; you had no right to demand anything from him. He was ready to cut ties if necessary. After all, a crooked beam leads to a skewed house

Klein, fuming, smashed a teacup, bellowing, "Gregory! How did the Ford family raise such an ungrateful son..." "Wait, hold up."

Gregory interrupted calmly, a smirk

on his face that begged to be wiped off. "Don't jump to conclusions, Who knows, maybe the Ford Group will up needing this 'ungrateful son' after all?"

en

"You!"

"Dad..." Palmer, steeling himself, pulled Klein upstairs. Their primary concern now was to verify the truth behind Gregory's claims.
