Chapter 1123: Chapter 1123: Why Let It Go
After all, that person was Arnold Simmons.
The decisive patriarch of the Simmons Family.
Even now that Louis Snyder had the backing of the Yarn Family, he still wouldn’t be a match for him.
Louis hung his head, the bright light from his phone casting a pale glow on his face, "Warn me, huh? What gives him the right?"
Brother Davis sighed and sat down opposite Louis, "Louis, take my advice. No matter how much you like Hannah, let her go. You’re not Arnold Simmons’s match."
Louis remained silent, merely letting out a cold laugh.
Why should he let go? Arnold Simmons stole his woman; how could he just let it go?
He was not inferior to Arnold Simmons, and he would prove it sooner or later.

The Yarn Family was preparing to hold a banquet, with the River Family and the Simmons Family naturally on the invitation list.
As per tradition, the invitation for the River Family was delivered into the hands of Old Sir River.
However, Old Sir River had not been in the best of health recently, and the affairs of the River Family were essentially handed over to George River.
Though George River’s talent in business couldn’t match that of the young Old Sir River, he too had grown up by Old Sir River’s side, and under his influence, George’s ability to manage the company wasn’t bad at all.
Especially since he took over the River Clan, the enthusiasm of the female employees at the company had greatly increased.
Previously, George River’s romance with Tiffany Lynch had made quite the stir, and terms like "throwing money around" even made it onto the trending searches. Naturally, people knew better than to crowd around him.
But things were different now; the two had broken up, and George River was single.
First loves are hard to forget, but Tiffany Lynch ended up in jail, and what man would pine for such an ex-girlfriend?
With that in mind, there were even more people who couldn’t restrain themselves.
Especially Anna from the secretarial department.
Anna had been blessed with good looks—fiery red lips, a curvy figure—and her family’s financial situation wasn’t bad either. While not on par with the wealthy elite, they were certainly well-off.
She was a woman with clear goals. When she first came to interview at River Clan, she had her sights set on the position of Mrs. River.
There were many who pursued her in the company, but she wasn’t interested in any of them.
For her, the best way to change her destiny was to marry into wealth and become a lady of leisure.
Unfortunately, at that time, George River was devoted to Prideful Entertainment because of Tiffany Lynch, rarely ever returning to the head office, hardly giving her a chance to see him, let alone catch his attention.
But now things had changed...
Recently, she heard that George River was preparing to attend the Yarn Family banquet in place of Old Sir River.
Since it was a banquet, he’d naturally need a female companion.
Looking around the entire company, there was definitely no woman more beautiful or more suitable for George River than she was.
When colleagues who were on good terms with Anna learned of her intentions, they tried to dissuade her, "Anna, forget it. I’ve heard Director River has someone he likes. Don’t make it so that if your confession fails, you even lose your job."
Looking into the mirror, Anna was full of confidence, "Someone he likes? Who told you that? I haven’t seen any woman by Director River’s side. And even if there is, so what?"
She smirked scornfully, brimming with confidence, "Could she be more beautiful than me?"
Anna’s confidence had reasons. Ever since her school days, she had been the beauty of her class, surrounded by admirers. Especially in college, she even caught the attention of talent scouts hoping to launch her career.
She was somewhat tempted at the time, but her family disapproved, saying being a celebrity was low-class and would attract disparaging talk from relatives, so she gave it up.
