Chapter 148
The next day, a sleek black luxury car with a Betrico license plate was parked at the entrance of the office of the Chambers Group, attracting the attention of all the passersby,
Some knowledgeable folks immediately recognized that this car was the newly released limited edition by a famous foreign brand.
There were only five of them in the world. Only two of them were imported into this country.
Everyone was suspicious when they noticed that this kind of car suddenly stopped in front of the Chambers Group’s office building.
The Chambers Group used to be bustling with people but now, there was hardly anyone.
Those sent from various companies to lurk around the Chambers Group’s office all hurried back to report their discoveries to their bosses.
The door of the car was opened.st, a man with gold-rimmed glasses stepped out of the passenger seat and quickly walked to the back door. He opened the door respectfully.
Then a middle-aged man walked out. He was dressed in a white suit with perfectly coiffed hair. He looked gentle and
refined.
He was Howard Yates, the general manager of the Sunrise Group The man with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses was his secretary, Liam Davidson.
Liam slightly bowed to Howard, saying, “Boss, this is the office building of the Chambers Group”
Howard nodded slightly, looking blankly at the Chambers Group’s sign
His eyes were half-closed and deep
He stepped inside. Liam immediately followed behind him.
He didn’t understand why his boss suddenly asked him to book the earliest flight to Seacrity last night. After a quick breakfast, he rushed here.
He had investigated the Chambers Group. He found out that although it was an established company in Seacrity, it recently had been in a lot of trouble and might go bankrupt soon. He didn’t understand why his boss suddenly came here personally.
He wondered if it was about an acquisition. If so, it was supposed to be handled by the specialists.
As far as he knew, they didn’t have this kind of plan in the near finture
Besides, even if they needed an acquisition, no one would consider a company that was about to go bankrupt.
From every perspective, there was nothing to gain. It could even cause some serious trouble.
Liam thought there was something strange about this whole thing. He was completely clueless. But he had to follow Howard inside.
He thought the answer was here in the Chambers Group.
The receptionist was a pretty girl named Julia Watts,
Back when Chambers Group was thriving, she ignored a lot of potential suitors.

Chapter 148
Who would have thought that in just half a month, the Chambers Group p was about to go bankrupt? Even her market value
to the matchmaker was affected.
Julia was sitting still at the reception desk, looking downcast and worried. She was listless.
When Howard walked in with Liam, Julia was browsing a dating website, looking for guys
No one had come to this place lately so Julia had been slacking off at work for several days. She didn’t even notice it when Howard and Liam were right in front of her.
Liam glanced at the computer screen. He frowned.
He thought, How did someone like her get this job? No wonder the Chambers Group is in deep trouble. Even the
receptionist is slacking off. This company is hopeless!
Liam said, “Hello! We have an appointment at ten o’clock foday with the chairman, Mr. Zachary Chambers”
Julia was startled. She quickly closed the page feeling guilty, and nervously looked up at the two men in front of her. She was momentarily stunned.
Years of experience working at the front desk had taught her to tell the rich from the poor instantly.
She noticed that the antique watch that the older man was wearing
aring was probably worth at least a few million dollars.
Julia put on her sweetest smile. She said, “Sir, a moment please. ll contact the secretary’s office right away.”
Ham nodded in a professional manner. He replied, “Thank you
On the 27th floor, the elevator doors opened. Lucas stepped out first, followed by Howard and Liam.
Lucas was still in shock. He went downstairs to receive his boss’s guest. When he saw Howard, he was taken aback.
Who would have thought that the person Yvette mentioned was Howard, the general manager of the Sunrise Group, the largest investment company in this country?
He thought, ‘Howard? Ten years ago, he suddenly showed up out of nowhere. He invested in a small domestic company that was about to go bankrupt. He had unique strategic foresight. Under his leadership, the small company gradually became stronger and larger. Just when everyone thought he would hold onto this company, he suddenly sold all his shares at a very high price and began his career as an investor
Over the past decade, Howard had invested in almost every industry: IT, textiles, manufacturing, real estate, hotel chains,
etc..
Every project that Howard invested in never lost money. They were all very profitable.
However, in recent years, he had invested less and less frequently.
But even if he did nothing, the profits from his companies were enough for him to live extravagantly for ten lifetimes.
In the business world, he was known as “Ghost Hand”.
Lucas had heard endless stories about Howard. His story was a legend within the industry.
Coming from humble beginnings and building everything on his own, Howard’s rise to the top was the greatest business. miracle in this country.
While others were being tricked by the capital market, Howard was the one skillfully steering it.
Lucas panicked, thinking. Who exactly is Yvette, and how she managed to make Howard stoop to coming to this place? She

must be really influential and close to Howard.”
Zachary was taken aback the moment he saw Howard.
Zachary didn’t come to his senses until Howard greeted him.
Even while sitting on the sofa drinking coffee, Zachary felt dizzy
Howard casually looked Zachary up and down, thinking, ‘So, he is the boss’s father. He actually looks not bad”
Howard’s smile was warm and his voice was gentle, completely different from what the rumors said. Howard said, “Hello, Mr. Chambers. I’m Howard Yates”
Liam, standing beside Howard, was stunned.
If he hadn’t worked for Howard for a long time, he would never believe the person in front of him was really Howard.
Zachary quickly put down his coffee
reached out to shake hands with Howard, Zachary said, “Hello, I’m Zachary from the Chambers Group…” He stoppo abruptly.
His smile became bitter. He thought. After tomorrow, there will be no Chamber Group
Howard narrowed his eyes. He squinted slightly and raised his eyebrow
Before coming here, Howard had investigated the current situation of the Chambers family
Now, looking at the worried man in front of him, he didn’t quite understand it.
He thought, “What’s there to worry about? If money can solve it, it’s not a real problem. Whether the Chambers Group) thrives or falls depends on the boss. As for the Smith family and the Canter family, they would be finished. How dare they attack the boss’s dad’s company?”
He thought the boss must have been slacking off again recently too lazy to take action. This is the only possibility, he thought
Howard put down the coffee cup. He said, “Mr. Chambers, I’m sure Ms. Chambers has already told you the purpose of my visit today, right? After all, she is thoughtful”
Zachary nodded and said in a low voice, “Yes. Yvette mentioned that you wanted to invest in the Chambers Group. But to be honest with you, the debt is much more than a few hundred million dollars. Besides, even if you have enough money to save the Chambers Group, there will be no promising projects to do in the future. You’re Yvette’s friend so I won’t lie to you. Don’t worry. I’ll talk to Yvette and make sure you won’t be in a dilemma.”
