Chapter 224 Hosting a Banquet
Eric’s face clouded over as he noticed a change in Kate’s usual upbeat nature when specific topics were brought up.
Suddenly, his attitude turned cold, and he stood up hastily.
Kate, who had been comfortably leaning against him, was caught off guard and fell back onto the couch with a gasp. Looking up at Eric with a puzzled expression, she asked, “What’s wrong?”
Eric looked down at her, his voice chilly. “It’s nothing
With that, Eric spun around and walked into his office, leaving Kate on the couch, confused.
Why did Eric seem suddenly annoyed?
She thought hard to determine if she had accidentally upset him but couldn’t think of anything.
Could there be another problem at work that needed his attention?
With that thought in mind, Kate decided not to worry too much. Eric had become distant because of work, so she logged into the EK Studio website’s backend and focused on her tasks.
From the office doorway, Eric glanced out and saw Kate deep in her work. He pursed his lips, a hint of annoyance in his eyes.
Was this issue supposed to be about work?
It was clearly something personal between them!
Eric looked down for a moment, the coldness in his eyes slowly fading, replaced with resignation.
He took another look at Kate before closing his office door.
The collaboration between Davison Group, Lowe Group, and Clover Company was doing great, with their products receiving positive feedback. EK Studios products were also a hit, making it a sought- after brand. Many companies were now keen on partnering up.
Meanwhile, at Maridonia, MC Studio was in ruins, with CEO Yves hospitalised after a severe car crash, likely facing a lifetime in a wheelchair.
After the downfall of MC Studio, everyone was cautious not to underestimate the Davison Group and EK Studio.
Many potential partners were eager to collaborate, leading Kate to plan a banquet at the Emperor Hotel in the Capital City.
The banquet would serve two purposes. Celebrating their products‘ success and the company’s rapid growth and taking the opportunity to entertain and select potential partners.

Many significant figures in the design world were eager to attend, and companies seeking to climb the Social ladder also moved quickly.
At Sadler Group. Lana clenched her teeth at Sadler Group as she looked at the invitation before her, feeling angry.
“Dad! What is Kate trying to prove with this? Is she trying to make us look bad on purpose?”
Lana slammed the invitation onto Scott’s desk, her expression one of anger.
Scott looked at Lana with a bit of a cold look. “Notice how upset you look! Is Kate really getting to you? Is this what she wants?”
His words jolted Lana back to her senses, making her even more jealous and angry.
Scott’s tone softened as he added, “But this is a good opportunity for us. Maybe Sadler Group can return if we can network with some big company CEOs.”
The current situation for Sadler Group could have been better.
Scott’s main relief was keeping Lana under control to prevent more chaos. Otherwise, under pressure from the Davison Group, the Sadler Group might have already gone under!
He might also have to deal with the fallout from Sadler Group’s under–the–table dealings.
