Chapter 236
Walton Corporation’s current growth trajectory was nothing like what it used to be.
Aurora organized all the materials, bundled them into a single file, and sent it directly to John, along with a short message:
“Mr. John, please give me a chance. You won’t be disappointed.”
John was in the middle of a meal and initially had no intention of responding.
But something about her message tugged at his curiosity.
It gnawed at him. Before he knew it, he’d already opened the file.
When Aurora saw the notification that he received the document received and knew she was halfway there.
Sure enough, half an hour later, a message came in from John.
“Miss Walton, my assistant just informed me that I’m free that day. You have my word–I’ll be there on time.”
Seeing his reply, Aurora’s lips curled into a faint smile.
She had been confident he’d come around.
But she didn’t respond right away. She waited a good ten minutes before typing a reply.
Timing was everything.
She had to know when to press forward and when to step back.
She’d learned early on that in business, it was sometimes wise to let others believe they held the advantage–but the upper hand
should never be fully surrendered.
It was one of the most valuable lessons she had learned since joining Walton Corporation.
Finally, after a deliberate pause, she replied, “Great. I’ll send you the venue details.”
John replied instantly with a thumbs–up emoji.
A quiet deal was struck between them.
As for what was truly exchanged in their conversation, only the two of them knew.
With that handled, Aurora turned her attention to the upcoming banquet.
Since she had decided to host, she couldn’t just invite John alone.
She planned to extend the invitation to some of Ravenshore’s most well–known business figures–most of whom had partnered
with Walton in the past.

That was why Aurora sent out those vitations.
At first, Grace was puzzled by her decision.
But after hearing Aurora’s reasoning, she didn’t say much more.

“Madam Grace, I know hosting a banquet takes time and effort, but if it succeeds, it’ll significantly boost Walton’s reputation,”
Aurora said calmly.
She paused, then added, “More importantly, the real purpose is to win over our overseas client, John York.”
She had scheduled John’s trip to coincide with the event, hoping it would also give him a better feel for Ravenshore.
Tomorrow, she still needed to inspect the venue. Time was running short, and there was no room for delay.
