My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 304

Jordan was no longer the "incompetent" live-in husband of Hailey. He was now the president of J Corporation, who had tens of thousands of subordinates.

Houston was a top-tier city, and he owned numerous businesses, so there were definitely large-scale branch offices here.

Jordan called the general managers of Houston one by one, and asked them to use their connections to call as many people as possible from the business circle of Houston, to go to the Intercontinental Hotel where he stayed at.

Jordan asked Pablo to call the hotel and rent the conference room of the hotel where he was going to hold a cocktail party.

At 9 pm, many people in the business circle of Houston still had meals and socializing while some had already gone home.

However, after receiving the news that J Corporation was going to hold a cocktail party and invite all the businessmen of Houston, they rushed to the Intercontinental Hotel, one after another.

They had heard of the reputation of J Corporation and the authorities of J Corporation had also said that Mr. Walton would be coming. Those businessmen were even more eager to come over.

Who wouldn't want to meet Mr. Walton and have a drink

with him?

Soon, the conference room of the hotel was filled with businessmen from the business circle of Houston.

They were all dressed decently. Most of the men were clad in suits and leather shoes, while the women were dressed in elegant dresses of varying lengths.

They were all holding glasses of wine, greeting each other, and exchanging numbers.

Jordan and Pablo were standing by the stage and staring at them.

Pablo was holding the guest list for the cocktail party.

He said to Jordan, "Mr. Jordan, none of these people are decent businessmen. They're either vice presidents or people who hold low positions in the company. Those big bosses who hold true power seem to be reluctant to do you the honor."

Jordan laughed and said, "If it only takes one phone call to get the big bosses to come over, they wouldn't be called big bosses. I didn't intend to call them over at first. These small fries are precisely the ones I wanted to invite."

At this moment, the general manager of the Ubereats branch in Houston picked up the microphone and made a speech on stage.

"Everyone, welcome to Mr. Steele's cocktail party. Let us now have the chairman of J Corporation, Mr. Steele, come on stage and say a few things to everyone!"

Everyone started applauding while Jordan made his way on stage to grab the microphone.

He rarely took part in such events, but today, he wasn't bothered by Victoria's sake.

Jordan said to the crowd, "Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend my cocktail party. I would like to express my gratitude."

"It's my first time here in Houston. This is a beautiful city, and I really want to meet some friends from Houston, so I've organized this cocktail party."

"However, there is another purpose for this party apart from allowing me to male some friends."

The hundreds of people on the stage quietly listened to Jordan's speech.

Having been businessmen for years, they all understood that Jordan was just being polite by saying that he wanted to befriend them.

Why would the president of the J Corporation, who was worth billions of dollars, bother befriending nobodies like him?

The next thing Jordan was going to reveal was probably his true agenda for holding this cocktail party!

Jordan asked, "Do you all know a businessman in Houston, named Clinton Whitley?"

Someone below the stage answered.

"Yes, he's a real estate magnate!"

"The Aegean Sea Hills villa belongs to him!"

Jordan nodded and continued, "I'm willing to fork out 15 million dollars to buy any controversial news you have about Clinton Whitley. As long as you give me sufficient evidence about Clinton Whitley, the 15 million dollars will be given to you!"

Hearing this, there was instantly an uproar in the venue of the cocktail party.
