A group of good-looking young men, probably around fifteen of them, came in.
They were followed by another group of people who were either bodyguards, assistants, or businessmen with briefcases.
“Who is Winston Carter? We are here to purchase Golden Edge!”
The leader of the group scanned everyone in the meeting room condescendingly. His words screamed of confidence and arrogance.
Winston was surprised. Based on their looks, he knew the young men were people with a strong background.
He went up to them and asked politely, “I’m Winston Carter. Who might you be?”
“Harry Lokeman from the Lokeman family from Takeno City,” the young man said.
Everyone in the meeting room was surprised by his introduction.
Takeno was just south of Lilyrose and both cities were interconnected, so everyone in the room had heard of the Lokeman family.
The Takeno Lokemans were wealthy and powerful.
They had a long history and a resourceful network, rivaling that of the Chrysant Vinlands.
Had the Lokemans been eyeing Golden Edge?
Winston wore an apologetic look and said politely, “Young Master Harry, I am terribly sorry but Shangrila Group has decided to purchase Golden Edge. Ms. Winnie Souffle is signing a contract with us.”
Harry looked at Winnie.
“Mr. Lokeman, Shangrila Group is interested in acquiring Golden Edge,” Winnie said politely.
“Signing a contract? Means it’s not a done deal yet?”
Harry looked at Winston, completely ignoring Winnie.
The young master from the wealthy family had a fierce aura. Even when he kept quiet, his presence would pressure others in the same room.
It reminded Winston of Kaze.
Winston bit the bullet and said, “Young Master Harry, I’m afraid…”
“Enough. It seems like the Lokemans aren’t influential enough.”
Harry stopped Winston abruptly with a frosty grunt and said, “I am not buying alone, we are.”
“Who might they be?”
Winston looked at the other young men behind Harry.
“Hank Duncan of the Duncan family from Sunrise City.”
A tall young man who looked rather buff stepped up and introduced himself.
