From A Prisoner To A Big Short’s Inheritor ( Yves Jimmy) novel Chapter 181

Chapter 181

A middle-aged man was interestingly looking at the surveillance video displayed on the computer inside a room of the hotel.

A young man behind him whispered, “Elder Coleman, is this the heir Lord Clarkson has chosen? I didn’t see anything special about him.”

Noam smiled slightly. “Guess if he found the camera hidden under the air conditioner?”

The young man shook his head. “He couldn’t have noticed the camera. It’s so hidden that he couldn’t find it unless he took a magnifying glass to it. And he didn’t pause his gaze for more than a second when he glanced over at the air conditioner just

now.”

Hearing the words of the young man, Noam nodded.

“As the heir selected by Lord Clarkson, he is so slow to react. It’s unfair for him to be favored by Lord Clarkson, and there’s still a huge disparity between him and the other reserve candidates.”

“Elder Coleman, you are absolutely right.”

Inside the box, Leonard had just sat down.

Damon, the hotel boss, had rushed in after hearing the report. And a group of managers walked in with an attentive face.

“Mr. Walker, it’s a great honor to have you at our Dunham Hotel…”

Damon began a ceaseless flattery of Anthony.

At the same time, he peered quietly at Leonard out of the corner of his eye.

He thought, “Who is this youth? I can’t believe he’s sitting in the main seat at Anthony’s meal.”

After a few words of flattery, Damon quietly came to Leonard, sensing that the time was about right. With a pandering face, he said, “You’re Mr. Walker’s friend, so you’re also my friend. A toast to you.”

Leonard picked up his glass and took a gentle sip.

Instead, Damon downed his drink and didn’t feel Leonard was embarrassing him.

After all, Anthony was so famous and could willingly be his foil. It could be imagined how terrifying his background was.

The several managers following Damon were even more afraid to speak and were puzzled in their minds.

They thought, “Who is this young man with a fresh face? He can act so calmly in the face

of our boss.”

Damon, boss of the Dunham Hotel, left sensibly after the toast.

All kinds of expensive drinks were placed on the table in a short while.

The waitresses were also eye-catching, pretty girls in dresses showing off their long legs.

They started with a drink to socialize.

Anthony whispered after he and Leonard had a few drinks, “The Gora Group is divided into several sections. Mr. Clarkson has named you his successor, but the other factions are unsatisfied, and most think that you are not good enough to inherit the vast family business.

“Especially since Max from the Youth Sect of the Galen Group has done a few significant things lately, and he’s calling the shots. There’s even talk in private about co-signing for Mr. Clarkson to cancel your heirship.”

After that, Anthony patted his chest and

said, “Back then, I was a chauffeur for Mr. Clarkson, and I’m in the position I’m in today thanks to Mr. Clarkson’s support.

“Mr. Santos, you are the heir apparent to Mr. Clarkson in person. If anyone does not recognize you, they do not recognize me.

“Mr. Santos, as long as you say something, even if it means tackling the elders, I’m willing to sacrifice myself to accomplish your wish. I will come hell or high water for you.”

Anthony showed his loyalty for a while, but Leonard just stared at him coldly.

He might actually believe it if it weren’t for the camera under the air conditioner and that sense of being spied on.

“I have known what’s going on within the Galen Group. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now.”

Leonard directly got up and said goodbye.

“Mr. Santos, I’ll drive for you,” Anthony shouted, who seemed to be getting a little tipsy.

“Thank you. I’ll drive back by myself.”

Leonard then walked out of the hotel and sat inside his Rolls-Royce.

However, after Leonard closed the car’s door, Anthony, who was still a bit drunk, rolled his eyes and showed a bit of indifference. How did he look like an intoxicated person?

He turned around and walked straight into the hotel to the eleventh floor.
