Chapter 274 The Domestic CEO
However, Wesley was a lecherous man by nature. He had always lusted after Cora’s devilish figure but refrained from crossing the line because Byron once held power over him.
Now that Byron no longer posed a threat, he couldn’t help but be eager to spend a passionate night with the woman he
desired.
“Byron, times have changed. If you dare to do anything to me,
I’ll let my men disable you.”
Wesley threatened, his lecherous gaze fixed on Cora. “If you’re smart, you’ll let this beautiful lady accompany me tonight. Perhaps then, I might forgive…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Byron punched him in his
face.
He even wanted to kick Wesley, but Cora quickly grabbed his
arm.
“Don’t cause trouble. Stay calm,” she urged.
In fact, Cora also wanted to slap Wesley for his repulsive
remarks.
Chapter 274 The Domestic CEO
In the past, even if she had refrained from taking action, she would have shouted at Byron, “If you want to fight, stop wasting your time on reasoning.”
But indeed, times had changed…
She was very concerned that Byron might lose control and start a fight, which would only invite unnecessary trouble.
However, even though Byron didn’t continue his attack,
Wesley’s anger continued to rise.
“You dare to hit me? Disable him! Let’s see if he can still be so
arrogant after that!”
As soon as Wesley finished speaking, his three bodyguards
surrounded them.
However, this was the Hansen family’s banquet venue. Mark,
the fourth son of the Hansen family, quickly arrived.
As he controlled the most profitable industry of the Hansen Group, his status had also risen.
Even Wesley, upon seeing him approach, quickly put on a flattering smile.
“Mr. Mark Hansen.”

“What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing. Byron is being unreasonable. He actually hit me for a woman. I just can’t bear this grievance,” Wesley said.
Having ingratiated himself with Mark recently, he indirectly sensed the conflict between Mark and Byron.
He planned to use Mark to deal with Byron and claim Cora, the beauty he dreamt of.
Mark glanced at Cora, who was dressed so alluringly, before
shifting his gaze back to Byron.
“Byron, why are you here instead of looking after father at the hospital?”
Mark was always wearing a smiling face, even if he wasn’t getting along with Byron.
“Harmony makes money. Don’t ruin our relationship over a
woman. How about you apologize to Mr. Ashton, and we can
leave this matter behind?”
Mark appeared friendly, but his words were pressing on
Byron’s dignity.
Hearing this, Wesley regained his spirits and quickly tidied his
Chapter 274 The Domestic CEO
suit, ready to listen to Byron’s apology.
But Byron countered, “And if I refuse to apologize?”
“In that case, I’m sorry, but please return to the hospital to take care of our father. After all, you didn’t receive an invitation card to tonight’s banquet.”
Mark remained smiling. But as soon as he finished speaking, more than ten of the Hansen family’s bodyguards instantly
surrounded Byron and Cora.
Apparently, they intended to kick Byron and Cora out by force.
Such action quickly drew the attention of others at the
banquet.
They gathered around, including the Yoris and Cross families. However, not a single person stepped forward to speak up for
Byron.
Even if they didn’t fully grasp the situation, they understood that Byron had already lost his position.
To be honest, Cora was quite troubled by this grand display. She hadn’t expected that they would actually be kicked out of the banquet, just like what she had imagined last night.
But just as she was thinking about how to defuse the situation
Chapter 274 The Domestic CEO
to prevent Byron from losing his dignity, she heard him say, “I
have an invitation card.”
“What are you talking about?”
The most stunned person was Mark himself.
After all, he personally compiled the guest list for tonight’s banquet.
In order to ensure that the upper class of New York understood that Byron had been excluded from their family, and they should no longer be associated with him, he deliberately didn’t invite Byron.
But now, Byron actually claimed to have an invitation card.
Mark couldn’t believe it. “Show me.”
Without hesitation, Byron took out the invitation card from his
pocket.
Mark hurriedly took it over and opened it, only to see the guest’s name clearly written as: [Domestic CEO of Sunda
Group.]
