Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 418



Julian’s wedding was three days away.
All the noble families in Jadeborough received Julian and Annalise’s wedding invitations.
It was worthy of the Parks family’s reputation, the number one in Jadeborough.
The invitations were exquisitely crafted with blue silk.
It was said that each invitation cost more than 400 dollars to make.
Julian’s wedding would be held on the cruise ship.
For safety reasons, Julian’s staff would register the families who indicated their attendance for the wedding.
Those who were sent by the families to attend the wedding would have to RSVP again to obtain the cruise invitation.
When they boarded the cruise ship, Julian’s staff would check their cruise invitation.
If an ordinary person told the guests they had to send their RSVP again to get another invitation, many people would probably
curse.
Why would they want to attend this wedding? However, this was the Parks family.
The groom was Julian, the number one bachelor of Jadeborough, and the bride was Lee’s daughter, the person in charge of
Jadeborough’s number two company, the Xander Group.
It was a grand wedding, the forging of a strong alliance.
Everyone was envious.
They felt honored to receive an invitation.
The cruise invitation letter was the same as the wedding invitation.
The craftsmanship was exquisite.
A trend started catching on among the Jadeborough circle.
They asked each other about the wedding invitations.

“Susie, did you get the invitation to Julian’s wedding?” “Luther, I want to attend Julian’s wedding.
Can you help me get an invitation? I’ll go with you.
You can say that I’m your distant cousin.” Others were equally enthusiastic.
Alexander also kept himself busy during this period.
While Julian was busy with the wedding, he and Timothy expanded their client base to boost their sales.
That day, Jared took the initiative to ask him out.
Jared said that he had a business to discuss with him.
Everyone knew that the current Blake Corporation had changed drastically.
However, although Jared was at the end of his rope, he was still more experienced.
He must still have many projects in his hands.
Alexander took the afternoon off to meet Jared.
At the clubhouse... Jared arrived ahead of Alexander.
Upon seeing Alexander, Jared stood up enthusiastically to greet him.
He took the initiative to shake Alexander’s hands.
“Hello, Mr. Parks.
Please sit down.” “Hello, Mr. Blake,” Alexander greeted him politely.
After Jared asked Alexander what he wanted to drink, he asked the waiter to prepare it.
Then, the two of them began to talk about the project.
Jared said that he now had two clothing companies, more than 300 apparel stores, and more than ten social media live-
streaming accounts with millions of fans.
They were his affiliate marketing partners.

He could use them to work with Alexander.
“Thank you, Mr. Blake.
I wonder what kind of collaboration you have in mind.” Alexander was very interested in the social media accounts with millions
of fans.
“This is the outline of the agreement.
Take a look.
We can talk about the details later,” Jared said.
“Alright.” Alexander accepted the agreement.
He looked at the agreement very quickly and finished scanning it in a short while.
He noticed something.
Jared’s offer was too generous.
He looked up at Jared and said in surprise, “Mr. Blake, with your resources, you don’t have to give me such a good offer.” Jared
smiled.
He said, “Isn’t that because I sincerely want to be friends with you?” “Thank you for thinking so highly of me, Mr. Blake,”
Alexander said sincerely.
“Of course.
I hope to be your friend and business partner too, Mr. Blake.
Therefore, for our long-term cooperation, we can change these terms.
Here, we can raise the ratio to 30%, which is almost the market price.” “Alright.
We’ll do as you say, Alexander,” Jared said with a smile.
“I’ll get someone to rectify the agreement and send it over.” As he spoke, he called his assistant to change the ratio in the
agreement and send it over.

After hanging up the phone, he politely asked Alexander, “Alexander, before signing the agreement, why don’t we order some
dishes and have a meal first?” His form of address had changed from Mr. Parks to Alexander.
“Okay,” Alexander replied with a smile.
They had to eat no matter what.
It was a suitable opportunity for them to eat, chat, and discuss the next plan.
The main thing was to market the products through those social media accounts.
In those days, live-streaming was a very effective way to sell goods.
Jared pressed the service bell, and the waiter immediately came over politely.
Once Jared said he wanted to order some dishes, the waiter immediately brought the menu to him.
Jared politely asked what Alexander felt like having and if he had any dietary restrictions.
Alexander said that he had none and he could eat anything.
Jared smiled.
“Alright.
I’ll order some side dishes, then.” Although Jared said he would pick some side dishes, everything he ordered was a main
course.
It was just the two of them, but he ordered eight dishes, all of which were the restaurant’s signature dishes.
After he finished ordering, the two of them chatted.
Jared refilled Alexander’s teacup and took the initiative to talk about the Blake family’s situation.
Jared said, “Many people would envy us who came from wealthy families.
But we’re the only ones who understand our troubles.
“We could be a happy family.

However, because of the family business and its many industries, we started fighting against one another.
“I’m sure you’ve heard about it, Alexander.
My mother gave all of her shares to my son, Preston.
She used to hold 60% of the company’s shares.
“I don’t care about having those shares.
After all, I’m already in my fifties.
To put it bluntly, I’ll retire in a few years.
“However, it was a little unreasonable for her not to leave any shares for Adam.
“They were both her grandsons.
I could understand why she might be a little biased.
After all, Preston’s mother was no longer around.
It was understandable for her to dote on Preston.
“But she did not give Adam anything.
No matter what, Adam is her grandson.” He said this to relate to Alexander and establish a common ground, thinking Alexander
was in the same situation.
As expected, when Alexander heard Jared’s words, his expression became somber.
He looked a little uncomfortable.
His grip on the teacup tightened as he replied, “Yeah.” Jared took in Alexander’s expression.
He sighed again.
He said, “As a father, I want to be fair.

After all, they’re both my flesh and blood.
However, sometimes, I might be emotionally biased.
I know it’s unfair to Preston, but he shouldn’t blame me.
He sees me as an enemy.
Our relationship is indeed difficult to improve.” “Yeah,” Alexander nodded again.
What Jared described was very similar to Julian and Tony’s relationship.
Seeing that Alexander was still listening, Jared said, “I’m fighting for the Blake Corporation now.
I’m doing it for two reasons.
Firstly, I blame the old lady for not treating me like her son.
Secondly, I feel that she’s being unfair to Adam.
I want to fight for the Blake Corporation, and I’ll split it equally afterward.
“By the way, Alexander, I heard that your grandpa will decide his successor based on your and Julian’s performance this time?”
“Yeah,” Alexander said.
It was not exactly a secret.
Jared asked again, “Do you have an idea of how your grandpa would distribute the company shares?” He deliberately pushed
Alexander’s button to lay the foundation for the crucial point he would say later.
People would only be this ruthless when they were backed into a corner.
Alexander frowned briefly.
He said, “Not yet.” Jared fanned the flames again.
“Your grandpa is a fair person.
He must be distributing the shares reasonably.” But in his heart, he scoffed.

Old Mr. Parks was the same as Madam Blake.
They were extremely biased.
He mentioned these things on purpose, trying to provoke Alexander.
