Chapter 371 Impulsive
In other words, BK Group organized this conference and invited you so that all the big corporations could be on friendly terms with each other and have good working relationships to expand future partnership opportunities and means.
If you keep arguing here, aren’t you disrespecting BK Group? Most of the time, everyone would act politely as part of business etiquette. But what happened today didn’t have a happy ending.
Just as Mr. Brady was about to instruct his staff to continue with the conference, Hugo suddenly said, “Why don’t we stop here for the morning session? I have an appointment.”
Edgar’s expression darkened immediately. “We’re not done with the discussion. Where are you going, Mr. Mason?”
Hugo smiled darkly. “This is a personal matter. I can’t tell you, Mr. Royden, but I believe that you will find out soon enough.”
Hugo looked at Mr. Brady after that.
The staff members at the side went up and spoke to him.
Mr. Brady nodded. “Alright. Everyone is tired. Let’s end the morning session here.”
After that, a staff member made announcements. “Please head to the restaurant for lunch. Other programs will be conducted in the afternoon.”
It was good to alleviate the tension between the two presidents.
Mr. Brady looked at Hugo’s figure. “I heard that Mr. Mason has a friend here?”
The staff members shook their heads. “We haven’t heard of such a thing.”
Hugo made his way through the crowd and came to Jean. “Let’s go, Ms. Eyer.”
His tone was pleasant, and there was the warmest of smiles on his face. It was very different from his usual calm and steady demeanor. That gentleman-like action alone mesmerized the girls around him.
Rachel, who was standing behind Jean, was one of the girls closest to him. She could practically feel the charisma oozing out from Hugo.
It was unstoppable!
Rachel felt her heart rate increase, even if he hadn’t been speaking to her.
Therefore, everyone’s gaze was focused on Jean as they waited for her answer.
“Alright. Let’s go.”
Both of them left side by side. The moment they walked out of the door, Miles looked at his boss. “Are we going to the restaurant, Mr. Royden?”
The man turned his head sideways. “Yes.”
He walked out. The parking lot was right outside the restaurant on the first floor.
Jean got into the car with Hugo and his daughter, and they set out happily.
Edgar clenched his teeth. His rage had flushed away all his rationality. “Give me your phone, Miles.”
Miles was startled at first, but he obediently passed his cell phone over.
Edgar opened the chat with Jean and typed a message with Miles’ tone of voice. ‘Ms. Eyer, if you’re free at night after the program ends, can we talk about a follow-up partnership?’
Even if the two companies were rivals, they could work together.
As things stood, Hugo’s company was also Eyer Group’s competitor, so why did they…
Jean replied quickly.
“Please help me thank Mr. Royden for his kindness, but there’s no need.”
Miles watched Edgar’s expression darken in front of him.
They were in public, and Miles was worried that Edgar would cause a scene, so he walked forward and said in a low voice, “Mr. Royden, I’m sure that there will still be opportunities to work with Eyer Group in the future.”
He could understand full well his boss’ intentions, but if the other party wasn’t willing to accept it, it couldn’t be forced.
“Miles, what do you think is the problem?” Edgar suddenly turned his head and asked. He got up and walked to the elevator. “Never mind.”
Miles glanced in the direction of the parking lot as he shook his head and sighed.
The next few days would be hard to endure.
