Chapter 380
Chapter 0380 In a luxurious presidential suite on the top floor of the Ol‘ Mare Seaside Grand Hotel...
After a long day hanging out with Coral, Amber worked on her laptop, catching up on some work for New Chesire Group. As soon as she entered the bathroom, the sound of running water came through.
“Wanda is so beautiful, and she sings so well too!” Coral, in her silk pajamas, laid barefoot on the sofa in the living room, holding Wanda’s autograph gleefully. Alexander smiled. He was just about to speak when the doorbell rang.
The clear sound of the doorbell rang out in the distance. Coral was alerted. She quickly put down Wanda’s signed photo and ran to get the door.
It was the head of the Saunders family, Roslyn Saunders.
“You are?” Goral eyed the beautiful woman in front of her. She was stunned for a moment, but she quickly turned to look at Alexander suspiciously.
‘It's so late now. Who is this woman looking for? | heard that my cousin’s husband had been to Zabaleta before. Could it be...?”
“lam a friend of Mister Kane’s.” Roslyn introduced herself and gave a friendly nod to Alexander, who sat on the sofa. Then, she said with a smile, “You must be Miss Braine. Am | right? Welcome
to Zabaleta.” As she spoke, Roslyn stepped into the living room but did not take a seat. She quietly waited for Alexander’s reaction.
“My wife is in the shower.” Alexander stretched out his hand and pointed to the bathroom, not looking at Roslyn. He said softly, “It doesn’t matter why you are here, but get out of here before my
wife comes out. “Why is he so cold to me? Is it because | am not pretty enough?‘ Roslyn wondered.
Roslyn decided to make small talk to get rid of the embarrassment. She dared not step out of line in front of the man. “Mister Kane, it is thanks to Mister Kane that the Saunders family has been
able to enjoy what we have today, so...”
She watched Alexander’s face, but he showed no change of expression, so she continued, “To express our highest gratitude, I've invited some counterparts from Zabaleta to a special social

“No need for that.” Alexander did not need much consideration; he shook his head firmly. “I have no interest in Zabaleta’s social circle.”
Roslyn had anticipated Alexander’s response, so she continued with a confident smile on her pretty face. “Most of the friends | invited to the gathering are from the pharmaceutical industry.
“As the market leader in the pharmaceuticals industry in Ol‘ Mare, the New Chesire Group would be able to meet a few more distributors at this gathering. I’m sure Mister Kane will find this offer very appealing.”
Alexander’s gaze turned slightly cold. “Are you investigating the New Chesire Group?”
“Calm down Mr. Kane. | wouldn't dare!” Roslyn’s expression changed slightly, but she quickly corrected it. She lowered her head slightly to show her meek side. “I’ve done no such things. On the other hand, the news spread all over Zabaleta because the New Chesire Group is such a big
and reputable name.”
Roslyn raised her hand to gather a strand of hair and tuck it behind her ear, then she continued to speak gently, “Since your marriage into the Chesire family, the rise of the Chesire family, the establishment of the coastal area of Ol' Mare, the fall of Mister Hardy, then the reshuffling of
power in Zabaleta...”
Well aware of what Alexander had done and putting it all into a timeline, Roslyn finally raised her gaze and looked into Alexander’s eyes. “From the trajectory of Mister Kane's actions, | assume your goal is the north.
“Zabaleta is not only the gateway to the north but also the most important link between the north and the central regions. It is a great springboard.
“If the New Chesire Group gets a firm foothold in Zabaleta, it'll be a great help in entering the northern market. | was only trying to help by organizing the social gathering. | don’t mean any harm to Mister Kane and the New Chesire Group.”
She paid attention to Alexander’s expression as she spoke. She was ready to stop talking if

“You are very clever.” Alexander sighed and replied with a smile, “If you are the head of the Saunders family, | am sure your family will remain the best in Zabaleta for fifty years. You’ve
earned it.
“| might go and check out the gathering tomorrow. You can go now.”
Joy flashed across Roslyn’s face. She bowed slightly to Alexander, nodded to Coral next to her, +15 BONDS
As soon as she stepped into the corridor, a thousand pounds of weight seemed to be lifted from her chest. She raised her hand to feel her damp back, and even her dress was soaked with sweat Her slender, straight legs trembled. She was so intimidated.
“Alexander...”
She recited Alexander's name in her heart. She could still feel her heart racing as she had a flashback of the conversation earlier. If she had said anything wrong, even just one word, she knew she would have dragged the Saunders family down with her. That man would see to that.
