His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 766

He was never willing to recruit a son-in-law. He always thought it was like handing over a piece of the family business to an outsider, so he set high expectations for Damian instead, hoping he would succeed and inherit the company.

"Hey, if I can help, I will. Damian is strong, though, so you should also consider his self-esteem. He'll think I'm protecting him more, and it's easy to take that to heart.

Joseph thought about it, then sighed and responded, "Never mind. In any case, the outcome is all but certain. Praise Damian in front of the shareholders in the upcoming management meeting. I’ll have another piece of news to announce on that day too."

"What news?" Arianna asked curiously, frowning.

"You'll know when the time comes. This is something about which I'm still not entirely certain, and I need to be sure before I play my cards. You can go now," he waved absentmindedly.

Joseph’s unfinished words aroused Arianna’s intense curiosity. At the same time, she also knew that if her father did not want to say it, he would not tell her.

He said that he must first be certain. Arianna wondered what it could be and if it was related to Damian. She gave Joseph a long look and noticed that he was hunched over and thinking silently, so she turned and left the study.

"By the way," Stopping her again, Joseph said, "Persuade your mother. It’s been so many years! Whatever happens, we've been married for a long time, and I’ll treat her well. If Damian takes over the business in the future, you two won't ever be mistreated by it.”

Arianna smiled, "Dad, I know! I’ll talk to mom."
