Chapter 162 Dalton Meets His Love Rival
“Why do you keep bringing her up?” Yvette’s gaze dimmed slightly, a hint of malice flickering across her expression as she lowered her head.
Unaware of her malice, Cherlie thought she was just upset.
He chuckled and said, “Don’t worry too much, Yvette. I only have eyes for you now. I mean, just look at Wynter! No man would want a headstrong woman like her!”
“Really?” Yvette bit her lip, her eyes misty with tears. “But Mrs. Shepherd seems to look down on me. I bet she prefers Wynter over me.‘
Charlie pulled her into his arms. “Don’t worry about my mom. She can’t change my dad’s decision. Just give me some time, okay? Soon, I’ll announce to everyone that you’re my fiancée.”
“Okay,” Yvette responded with a sweet tone, though her mind was still preoccupied with the man she had just seen.
She needed to find a way to meet Mr. Yarwood in person, only then maybe…
Meanwhile, on the top floor of the Chamber of Commerce building, representatives from many large companies had gathered, including those from outside of Southdale.
While many of them were eager to collaborate with the Yarwoods, they also came to catch a glimpse of the head of the Yarwood family.
Most of them had never seen Dalton before; one reason being his poor health, and the other being that they lacked the qualifications to meet him.
After all, access to the top floor of the Chamber of Commerce required verification, and only three companies in the entire Southdale had met the qualifications so far.
Even Nelson was stopped on the 24th floor because he failed to meet the qualifications.
The conference room of the president’s suite was outfitted with an array of modern
amenities.
Dalton occupied the central seat, engrossed in the project proposals before him, his long legs casually crossed.
Among the attendees, none rivaled Dalton’s youth; most were at least two generations his senior.
It was Larry’s first time meeting the head of the Yarwood family, and he had to admit, the

rumors didn’t do Dalton justice.
Not only was Dalton ruthless, but he also exhibited remarkable astuteness.

Furthermore, his striking appearance was simply impossible to ignore too dashing, too youthful!
Touching his right cheek, Larry couldn’t help but wonder why his own appearance, reminiscent of a bandit, stood in stark contrast to Dalton’s, despite both being CEOS.
As he was pondering, Dalton suddenly spoke up, “I heard Mr. Hilton has plans to invest in medical live streaming.”
Dalton’s voice was so calm that no one present had expected him to directly address
someone.
Larry, who came without a specific purpose, responded, “Ah, yes. I do have such a plan.”
But how did the head of the Yarwood family know about his plan? Their groups had never gotten in touch with each other before though.
“Tell me about your plan.” Dalton continued, not bothering to flip through other proposals,
his eyes calmly fixed on Larry.
“Well…” Larry rose to his feet, his hands empty, a chill creeping down his spine.
Knowing he wouldn’t receive the proposal from his boss until the next day, he had come unprepared, with nothing to present.
However, Dalton seemed surprisingly understanding. “I watched your interview in Southdale.”
The CEOs present exchanged glances, surprised that Dalton would bother watching interviews as well.
“You watched my interview?” Larry was taken aback.
“Just trying to gather more information,” Dalton said with a meaningful glance, leaving out the part about why Wynter would accept Larri’s investment.
“Apparently, Mr. Hilton has quite a distinctive personal style,” Dalton added.
“Personal style?” Larry didn’t quite comprehend.
“Your big gold chains and watch… are quite unique,” Dalton said, twirling the beads on his
wrist.
Though he couldn’t quite understand why anyone would prefer such accessories.

Other CEOS couldn’t help but feel regret. If only they had known Dalton had a preference for this kind of fashion, they would have dressed accordingly!
Larry sighed and said, “Please excuse my lack of refinement.‘
“You’re too humble, Mr. Hilton.” Dalton glanced at him from head to toe and remarked, ” You have your merits too. At the very least, you have a reassuring face.”
Reassuring because Wynter had a preference for handsome faces; she would never be interested in one like Larry’s.
Larry was a bit puzzled. Was that a compliment?
