“F *ck! Gerald, we're really in!”
Lilian sighed, dumbfounded.
He barely showed any resistance, although Gerald was still hugging his waist.
It was all too interesting, now the table has changed.
They're at the venue.
Elena's birthday banquet this time was magnificent. This is mainly because of Mr. Larson wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to host a large gathering for all business owners as well.
Since Hayward was from Yorknorth Mountain, it automatically made her eligible in the banquet attendee list.
There were over a hundred guests at the scene. Most were wealthy and young heirs, and there were plenty of bosses as well.
The layout of the event is a bit similar to a wedding ceremony. There was a long hallway in the middle, and banquet tables lined both sides of the hall.
Gerald managed to find a seat for the two of them.
After all, there were many people here, and most would just casually find a place to sit with their friends.
Hayward walks into the ballroom, gazing intently at Gerald and Lilian before pulling Sharon to sit at another table with some of her friends.
“Gerald? Why are you here too?”
A random voice asked loudly.
As he turned to look, Gerald was shocked.
It was a girl, and it turned out to be Leila, the daughter of Mr. Jung.
A group of gallant young men and beautiful women stood beside him. Leila also looked at Gerald in surprise.
Why is Leila here?
As Gerald thought about it, he could slowly put things into perspective.
Mr. Jung is the leader of Weston Merchants Holdings. Since he invested in Serene County, he had to get acquainted and have many deals with big managers and bosses.
Since Elena's father organized such a big meeting and Hayward was able to get an entrance ticket, it goes without saying that Leila would also get one.
It was a coincidence that they had to meet each other.
"Leila, is this your friend?"
“Well, I don't think he's considered a friend? We were both from the same hometown, that's all, and his father had some connections with me in the past. But we have not been in touch with their families for a long time. His family owes him a lot of money now, and his parents and sister work abroad to pay off his family's debt. Even so, it was really unexpected that she could attend such a big event!”
Leila explained while squinting at Gerald.
After all, he could still remember how Gerald had previously put him in a very difficult and awkward situation at a western restaurant.
He finally managed to get his father to pocket the entrance ticket for him this time, not to mention how he got it with the help of insiders. By coming here, he hoped to gain some insight as well.
Ever since she became more open, she has met Liam Zachman, a young and wealthy heiress from Mayberry City.
The Liam family used to run a large company in Mayberry City. When they heard about the development of Yorknorth Mountain, they managed to get a contract to run one of the largest restaurants there. It just means that they will not be short of funds in the future.
He was one of the most influential and loaded heirs among others.
In retrospect, Douglas was completely defeated by Liam.
Leila also found that slapping Douglas in the face was simply because Gerald was a bit silly.
“Liam, he's a nobody. He used to be a famous poor guy in our Quiet High School.”
Douglas was there to attend the meeting as well.
"Oh! Hehe, so so, uh. Well, let's find a seat first. We can all have a good conversation together! ” He told Liam politely as he emerged from the crowd.
Liam said to the group of young men and women behind him,
“Liam! You just arrived? I've reserved a nice seat for you!”
Hayward takes Sharon to greet Liam.
The table is very close to Gerald.
“Hayward, you came early! Leila, let me introduce you to my friend, Hayward!”
Liam introduced with a smile.
Hayward's impression skyrocketed.
Ever since he owned the store on Yorknorth Mountain, his reputation peaked.
He should also be considered part of the wealthy heir circle.
