Dauntless God Of War novel Chapter 142

In order to take all the guests into account, the banquet for the Southvale urban renewal project was held at Golden Sands Hotel, a renowned hotel in Norham.

The sky gradually darkened around half-past seven.

The guests arrived one after another.

The Southvale urban renewal project was one of the few major projects in Norham in the past two years.

As the scope of the project was quite extensive, many big companies had their eyes on it.

They could earn a lot just by getting a small share of the project.

Hence, almost all corporations related to construction, property, and building materials were eager to be a part of this project.

The Simmons family was in charge of the urban renewal project.

They arrived at Golden Sands Hotel early to greet the guests.

Jacob was discussing softly at the corner with Elias, who was going bald

“How's the situation over there, Jacob? I've got the latest insider information. The biggest winner for this project could be Zeller Group. You must hurry up and win Ms. Zeller's hand...” Elias said to Jacob with a serious look.

“Don't worry, Dad. You can rest assured that I'll get it done. The Zeller family has agreed to break off the engagement with the Campbell family after the banquet. Now, the only obstacle is that brat from the Campbell family. Judging by his pathetic look, I think he can be easily convinced with some money,” Jacob said confidently.

“That's good to hear.” Elias nodded at Jacob in satisfaction.

However, when he recalled the scene at Paradise Hotel the day before, he went on to remind Jacob, “There's a big shot in Norham recently. He managed to wipe out Neptune Chamber of Commerce. The people from Paradise Hotel had to pay him full respect. He might come here later. Don't mess with him, all right?”

“What?” Jacob gasped. “Did you say that he wiped out Neptune Chamber of Commerce? What powers does he have to be able to do such a thing?”

A shiver ran down his spine.

Nevertheless, he reckoned that a big shot like that should be around his eighties, and would most probably not have any conflicts of interest with him. It was almost impossible for Jacob to get on bad terms with big shots.

After instructing Jacob to stay low throughout the night, Elias left.

Jacob made a call before he went to pick up Megan and her family.

Harold and Loraine arrived at the hotel right after Jacob stepped out.

Their appearance became the center of attention right away.

Just like Megan, Loraine was one of the top ten beauties of Norham. Moreover, she was Samuel's granddaughter, which meant she had a reputable status in Norham. Many young and successful men adored her.

In the past, Loraine would attend events on her own. This time, she brought a partner with her.

The other men shot hostile glances at Harold.

However, they gasped in fear once they recognized him.

Wasn't this the mystery man at Paradise Hotel yesterday? He removed Neptune Chamber of Commerce from the business world in just an hour's time, didn't he? The manager of Paradise Hotel had to treat him with full respect too! That's him, isn't it?

They regretted having harbored ill will toward such a man of noble status. They were basically digging their own graves.

They quickly lowered their heads. None of them dared to approach him.
