Seeing the familiarity between this young man and Mr. Mcguire, it was clear that he held a significant position.
"Sylvia is inside," Mrs. Wright muttered numbly as she accepted the gift Arian handed her. "Thank you."
"Uncle Mcguire, I have a long-lost friend in the Wright family, so I'll head over there first."
Arian said and proceeded towards the Wright family's area.
Members of the Mcguire family felt nothing but bewilderment, pain, and embarrassment.
Even Arian had gone to the Wright family's banquet?
Mr. Mcguire was seething with anger and felt a deep sense of discomfort.
Sylvia? Who on earth was Sylvia?
And to call her a friend!
Blake Rees' presence was one thing, but Arian, too? Were they all insane?
What did the Wright family represent? Wasn't Cody merely a former official in Larro? He had only recently been released, lacking any significant position, power, or money.
Mr. Mcguire was fuming internally, ready to return to his own private room.
Next to him, Mrs. Wright also prepared to return to her private room.
The time was getting late, and it was almost time for dinner.
Suddenly, a car skidded to a stop in front of Balfax Hotel.
Everyone turned to see a car, an Audi A6, which was known for being an official vehicle. A young man rushed out of it, causing Mr. Mcguire to furrow his brows and stop in his tracks.
"Isn't that the president's assistant?"
"Yeah... he seems to be in charge of personnel transfers in Urgford, and many high-ranking appointments are communicated by him."
Mrs. Wright, upon hearing the hushed discussions, speculated that this important young man had come to the Mcguires for some reason.
She continued walking without stopping.
Mr. Mcguire, on the other hand, was pondering whether this young man had been sent by the president to show respect to the Mcguires because of their prominent family business.
He immediately put on a friendly smile and approached the young man. "Jorge! Hello, hello!"
Jorge glanced at him, his tone void of warmth, creating a stark contrast with Mr. Mcguire's enthusiasm. "Mr. Mcguire, I'm sorry, but I have an urgent matter to attend to."
Mr. Mcguire's smiling face froze in place as he watched the young man walk briskly to Mrs. Wright and then stand in front of her.
"Mrs. Wright, may I ask if Mr. Wright is inside?"
Mrs. Wright looked at him with surprise. "Yes, he is. May I inquire about the reason?"
"Oh, it's like this," the young man said with a polite and respectful tone. "Mr. Wright was wrongly accused, so the president believes that such an upright official shouldn't be overlooked."
Upright official...
What did that mean?
Mr. Mcguire's face darkened as he stared at the scene, baffled by Jorge's request.
Did this imply that Cody could make a comeback?
Could he get a promotion and become wealthy again?
A sense of unease began to creep into Mr. Mcguire's heart.
Meanwhile, in the Wright family's private room, it was more like a banquet hall rather than a simple private room. The MI6 agents and a few brothers from Mr. Mcguire's circle, who had attended the Wright family's dinner, had primarily come out of respect for Mr. Mcguire's face. They had also hoped to earn some favors from Mr. Mcguire.
They were aware that very few people had come to the Wright family's dinner, and so they had come to make up the numbers.
However, as the guests kept arriving, one more distinguished than the other, the group of young gentlemen stared in shock and trepidation.
They were simultaneously amazed and anxious, feeling relieved that they had followed Weston to the Wright family.
If they had gone to the Mcguire family, they would not only have offended Mr. Mcguire, but they would also have missed the opportunity to meet these distinguished individuals.
In the room were representatives of Urgford's major families: the Dawson family, the Rees family, the Bennett family, and even the Ray family, the Saunders family, and the Howlett family.
The group of young gentlemen, especially when they saw Carolyn, were utterly astonished.
Her accomplishments in managing the Mcguire Group had become legendary throughout H Rovirsa. She had taken the company to new heights, and her achievements were known far and wide. Now, she was dining with the Wright family.
Leaving her little sister, Katie, and coming to the Wright family...
They were dumbfounded!
Cody's banquet was extraordinary this time, at an unprecedented level!
"Weston, why didn't you tell us beforehand that Blake and Arian would be coming? These two... they are considered..." one of the young gentlemen, who was beginning to get anxious, said. "I'm getting nervous. What do I do if I need to toast them? They call Arian the 'God of Wealth.' I... What if they ignore me?"
Weston observed the arrival of both Blake and Arian without showing any surprise on his face. He was even less surprised when he saw both men heading toward Sylvia, wearing a smug expression that said, "I told you so."
