Chapter 986
“Please don‘t rush.” Jake raised his hand and gestured at the rest to calm down. The noisy crowd instantly fell silent.
“Winters Corporation is investing in Cloud City, but the exact project is still under discussion. Once the initial preparation is ready, Winters Corporation will hold a press conference. Please be patient.”
After working with Duke for a long time, Jake had begun to emanate a similar imposing manner.
As soon as he spoke, he managed to suppress the crowd.
The reporters obediently kept their cameras and microphones away. Jake walked down the stairs and approached Kendry. “Are you Mr. Kendry Willis?” Kendry was flattered. “Yes, I am.” “Mr. Willis wanted to meet you yesterday, but he didn‘t have the time. Mr. Willis, please follow me,” Jake said respectfully.
When the crowd on the site heard Jake‘s words, they subconsciously went into an uproar. “I heard that the Willis family offended Winters Corporation from Sea City. Looks like it‘s true.”
“The CEO of Willis Corporation is already in jail. It‘s the Coo‘s turn now.”
“The Willis family is a big family in Cloud City too, but even they are insignificant and low before the assistant of Winters Corporation.”
“Winters Corporation is a big corporation that ranks first globally. The Willis family is nothing.” “The Willis family is doomed.” “The one who holds the power in Cloud City will change.” The surrounding people‘s words made Kendry‘s face unknowingly turn pale.
He turned around and said in a deep voice, “The two of you should go back first. I‘ll go inside.” “Dad, you‘re not going to be locked up too, are you?” Ruth was so anxious that she almost cried. “Let‘s go back now. Just forget it.”
Uncle Clarence was already in jail. If her father suffered the same fate, the Willis family would truly be doomed. “Why are you crying?” Kendry said sternly. “Learn from Adeena. Look how calm she is.” “She‘s not your biological daughter, so why would she be anxious?” Ruth sniffled. “Dad, I‘m going inside with you!” Right as Kendry was about to turn her down, Adeena said, “Let‘s go inside together.”
She looked at Jake. “Mr. Wilson, you wouldn‘t mind serving two more glasses of drinks, right?”
Her voice immediately snapped Jake out of his daze. “Of... Of course, I don‘t mind. Please come inside.”
Jake then led the three of them to the presidential suite. “Please wait for a moment.”
After he spoke, he served them three cups of coffee before he turned around and left.
“Mr. Wilson was quite nice.” Ruth took a sip of the coffee. “These are the finest hand–ground coffee beans! If Winters Corporation really wanted to deal with the Willis family, they wouldn‘t have served us such good coffee, right?” she said, feeling somewhat surprised.
Adeena nodded indifferently. “It doesn‘t look like they want to cause trouble.”
Kendry did not drink the coffee. “Either way, it won‘t be anything good. Just talk less later,” he said in a low and deep voice. The three of them waited in the suite for about ten minutes before someone gently knocked on the door.
Kendry immediately got up, and Ruth, as well as Adeena, followed suit. The three of them looked at the door in unison.
Jake pushed the room door open and respectfully stood to the side. A tall and straight man then walked out from behind him.
The man was dressed in a black suit. His sharp eyes, high nose, and thin lips beneath his short, black hair gave off an intimidating aura.
Meanwhile, a dull, soft light shone on his golden cuffs under the chandelier.
She had initially thought that the CEO of Winters Corporation was an old man with a big belly, but he was actually so good–looking! He was like a prince from a fairy tale, and she could not take her eyes off him as a result. “Mr. Winters!” Kendry immediately stepped forward.
