Chapter 700
Harvey said nothing, just awkwardly keeping his head bowed. He had only joined the company as an intern, learning to take over the company’s business and making some changes, not as exaggerated as Sebastian said.
But Mr. Ellison nodded proudly. “It is indeed Harvey. He has a keen market sense. Knowing that the market is starting to saturate along the coastal area, he has thought of investing in San Joto.”
Sebastian smiled and looked at Harvey meaningfully. ‘Investing in San Joto isn’t something everyone dares to do. This young man has got guts. But I wonder if he has the means to see it through.’
“Harvey is indeed a dark horse. It looks like Mr. Ellison has a capable successor.” The three of them exchanged some pleasantries for a moment before realizing that they had neglected Snow and Yvana. Sebastian and Yvana had not seen each other for a long time, and Yvana seemed to realize something and took the initiative to say hello. “Uncle Sebastian, do you remember me? I’m Yvana.”
Sebastian smiled. “You have grown up and become a pretty girl. I almost couldn’t recognize
you.”
Sebastian cleverly defused the embarrassment moment. Mr. Ellison also looked at Yvana but somehow did not like her heavy makeup. Instead of symbolically complimenting Yvana, he simply said to Harvey, “Get your classmate a glass of water.”
