Kai didn't have much of an impression of Kelvin.
Old Mr. Foley was his boss when he was younger, and even though the former had retired now, his influence still remained.
That's why Kai personally received Kelvin when they arrived. Most of what Kai knew about Kelvin came from newspapers since the Foley family was one of the three major economic conglomerates
Most of what Kelvin knew about the Foley family came from newspapers since they were one of the top three families in Chulae.
Over the years, the Foley family had been gradually emerging as the leader among "the top three families".
Kelvin deserved credit for this achievement. At just twenty-seven years old this year, he was remarkably promising.
Among Chulae's top three families, the Foley family had been deeply rooted in the high-tech industry for two generations. Since the 1990s, they had consistently excelled in the industry.
On the other hand, the Lara family mainly focused on heavy metals and mining fields for development purposes.
Hayden Lara who currently led the Lara Family was just over thirty years old with decisive leadership skills that rivalled those of Kelvin.
Lastly, the Weaver Family rooted itself within agriculture and animal husbandry enterprises while holding nearly fifty percent of market share.
The Weaver family was also a unique presence, being the only one among "the top three families" with a woman as the head.
Throughout the generations, the head of the Weaver family had always been a woman.
Its descendants were propagated through the practice of taking in sons-in-law.
Miss Julianne Weaver of the Weaver family and Emily Davidson, the President's daughter, were close friends.
Emily was Iker's former fiancee.
After Master Iker became disabled, she took the initiative to cancel their engagement. This caused many people to become restless. It was rumored that Hayden Lara was pursuing Miss Davidson with great fervor, and Davon was also one of her many suitors.
Kai personally greeted Kelvin, which gave him a lot of respect. "Mr. Todd, you're too kind. As a first-time visitor, this is just a small token of my respect," Kelvin said as Chris immediately took out a gift box from the car.
Inside was an antique European firearm from the 18th century that Kelvin had purchased at an auction. Its design was extremely advanced for its time and although it couldn't compare to modern weapons, it would have been considered an expensive rarity two hundred years ago.
Collectors who loved weapons undoubtedly wanted to get their hands on this guns. Kai's eyes lit up when he saw it; his two favorite things were weapons and beautiful women. Iker inherited his first hobby while Davon leaned more towards the latter.
"Mr. Foley has gone through so much trouble; please come in and sit down," he said before turning to his butler and saying "Bring us some tea."
Kai led Kelvin into the luxurious hall where they chatted for a while before he finally understood why Kelvin had come over.
It turned out he was here to discuss a business partnership.
He split his family's business into two parts, with one part managed by Davon and the other part handled by himself.
Erica was a finance graduate and highly trusted by Kai, who put her in charge of the company's affairs.
Therefore, Kai was unaware of Davon's decision to terminate the contract with the Foley Group.
"Mr. Foley, please wait a moment while I call my Erica and second son to ask what happened."
"Mr. Todd, there is no need to rush. I believe there may be a misunderstanding."
Kai intended to keep Kelvin for lunch and also wanted to take this chance to assess his character.
His daughter was about twenty-four years old this year and would return home soon.
If the Todd family could form an alliance with the Foley family, it would be a good thing indeed.
Unfortunately, Kelvin had his childhood sweetheart by his side; otherwise...
