Hearing Barret's words, Anna and the middle-aged captain felt bitter in their hearts. The reality was just like what Barret said. Now the grading was not completely over, but in fact, the result was already clear. The two of them were reluctant to accept it.
Compared with the other two companies, Guineay Security and Superstitious Security, Collier Security was not in a state of celebration.
At noon, in the largest hotel in Zuo city, Mr. Hu, President Wong, and the Deputy Mayor were sitting in the biggest private room. The table in front of them was full of dishes, that even twenty people would not be able to finish.
"Mayor Shan, let me propose a toast to you!" Mr. Hu picked up the glass with a flattering smile on his face.
The Deputy Mayor waved his hand. "I'm not a mayor, I'm just a deputy."
Hearing this, Mr. Hu immediately showed an unhappy look. "Mayor Shan, I respect you, but I don't like what you just said. In my eyes, you are already the mayor of Zuo city!"
"Yes!" President Wong, who was sitting next to him, also immediately said, "Mayor Shan, I also propose a toast to you."
Hearing this, the Deputy Mayor's face lit up with joy. "Since you both think highly of me, I'll accept your toast."
"Cheers!" Mr. Hu let out a loud shout and gulped down the wine in his glass.
When the wine was finished, the three people sat at the table. Mr. Hu took the initiative to clip a lobster to the front of the Deputy Mayor and said, "Mayor Shan, tomorrow morning, President Wong and I will bring the investment proposal to your office so you could have a look. This time, please take good care of it."
Deputy Mayor Shan laughed out loud and said, "You two helped me find and return the lost investment proposal."
Deputy Mayor Shan deliberately emphasised the word "lost".
Mr. Hu and President Wong were both smart people, so they naturally understood the meaning of his words.
"Yes, yes, yes." Mr. Hu nodded repeatedly. "Tonight, mayor Shan personally led the members of our Guineay Security and Superstitious Security. Under the leadership of Mayor Shan, we caught thieves and returned the proposal."
"Ha ha ha!" Deputy Mayor Shan laughed. "It's really enjoyable to talk to you two. It's much more comfortable than annoying Collier Security. Come on, let's drink, let's drink!"
In the private room, the laughter of three people could be heard.
After Henry returned to his hotel, he sent Sylvia the message that everything was all right. A few seconds after the message was sent, Sylvia replied.
"Waiting for you to come back home."
These simple words warmed Henry's heart.
There were too many meaning in the word "home".
Henry put away his mobile phone and lay on the bed, planning to take a day off today. He wanted to take a rest first, but as soon as he had closed his eyes, the phone rang. Looking at the caller, Henry picked up the phone.
"Hey, Felix."
