Hearing that, Leo stood up.
Then he saw two middle-aged men in suit get off the limousines, each of whom were followed by a few secretary ladies.
“Mr. Williamson,Mr. Howard it’s my honor to meet you.” Greeted Laura.
Both of the two men replied with a smile, “The honor is mine.”
“Miss Watts, who is this gentleman?” soon, the two men noticed Leo.
Laura hurried to introduce, “This is Mr. Cohen, the owner of J Group.”
Then she looked at Leo, “The two gentlemen are the members of JP Business Association, Dillon Williamson and Alistair Howard.”
But Leo only replied with indifference.
Seeing that, Dillon and Alistair squinted at him, “You are the owner of J Group?”
Laura forced out a smile, “Mr. Williamson, Mr. Howard, may I ask you a question? My brother and I have made an appointment with you for today’s negotiation, right?”
Dillon nodded, “Of course.”
Hearing that, Leo fell into silence. He looked a bit confused, wondering if he was mistaken.
“What happened?” both Dillon and Alistair asked, feeling confused as well.
“Nothing.” Laura shook her head and smiled, “It was just because of a misunderstanding between us and Mr. Cohen.”
Leo remained silence for seconds. Then he uttered, “I am sorry for the mistake.”
After that, he was about to leave.
Jonah stopped him, questioning angrily, “are you gonna walk away like that?”
Leo frowned, “What do you want?”
Laura took a step forward, “It’s a matter of reputation. We need to know who was setting us up!”
“Besides, Lydia used to be a friend of mine in college. If someone is trying to conspire against her while making us the scapegoat, we have the right to figure it out!” she huffed firmly.
Leo took a look at her. After a few seconds of consideration, he described the appearance of the two hitmen.
After hearing that, Laura shook her head, “Sorry, we don’t know them. Mr. Cohen, actually, Jonah has ever thought about retaliating against you. But I stopped him.”
“It’s a business issue. So I would like to deal with it in business.”
Leo nodded, “I am sorry for the mistake.”
When he was about to leave, Dillon and Alistair stopped him, “Well, I see. Alan is working for you, right? Mr. Cohen, as the owner of J Group, why don’t you stay with us for a talk?”
The way they spoke sounded domineering.
Leo frowned, “What’s the talk for?”
Dillon smirked, “It’s just about an invitation. I want you to join the JP Business Association. Listen, it’s not an offer expecting mutual consent from you and me. Instead, it’s a compulsory request for you.”
Though Alistair only watched in silence, his expression signaled his acquiescence.
