Chapter 651
[Eight days from now? Awesome! I’ll be there!] Horace was excited after seeing the news.
[Haha, we’ll have to raise a glass to our master, because we wouldn’t be where we are today without him! Let’s bring glory to him!] Warren said excitedly.
They all had a great time chatting and it was one of those rare times where the group was so lively.
“Haha, it’s so amazing for us that The One And Only was sold to South Link City’s South County Mansion!” At that moment, several members of the Sanchezes had big smiles all over their faces in a mountainside villa.
However, their old patriarch Sergio Sanchez, had a frown as he said, “Even though we’ve earned an extra forty-five thousand, I still feel sorry for our client in Brookbourn. We can’t change the fact that they made the appointment well in advance!”
At that moment, his son Carlito Sanchez smiled and said, “You’re overthinking, Dad. We’re businessmen, and the job of a businessman is to make money. Besides, Brookbourn is small, and even though it’s against principle for us to break a sales contract, we can’t offend South County Mansion either, right? If we can establish good connections with them at the time, we may be able to ask favors from them in the future if we need any help!”
Another middle-aged woman also immediately said, “That’s right, Dad. Integrity and principles are very important when doing business, but this time’s different because we’re in a very unique position.”
Sergio smiled. “Our hands are indeed tied in this situation, but anyway, let’s all come and drink! The One And Only is a very valuable set of jewelry, so make sure to send a couple more of our elite people to escort it by air tomorrow. We cannot afford to let any mistakes happen!”
All of a sudden, the general manager of the And Only Jewelry Corporation’s headquarters rushed in. “We have a situation!!” The man-who seemed to be in his forties-was known for being composed in carrying out his work duties, which made it all the more surprising that he was flustered and did not say anything. Moreover, he appeared to be so frightened that cold sweat was dripping down his forehead.
Carlito, as the head of the family, frowned immediately when he saw the man. He then remarked in a somewhat irate manner, “Our family is regarded as one of the top ten most influential families in Dracodom’s business world, Uncle. Why are you, the head of our company’s headquarters, so anxious? Don’t you know that we should always remain calm in any situation?”
The man immediately said, “But I can’t calm down because we have a very serious situation on our hands!
“What is it?”
Sergio sensed that something was wrong and asked immediately.
The man replied, “War God Beryl has demanded to meet our person in charge!”
“What?”
Everyone in that room had high status, with subordinates who managed countless industries spread throughout the country. They could all be regarded as bona fide business tycoons, yet they were all terrified when they heard what the general manager told them.
“You’re not kidding, right?” Carlito could no longer stay calm.
