Royal Palace, one of the top clubs in Jadeborough, was a money-squandering establishment.

At the same time, it was also part of Tyrone’s business empire, generating at least ten billion in profit for him each year.

Gold Chamber was the grandest and most luxurious hall in the building.

Dozens of men and women in splendid attire were gathered in groups, each attended by a waiter pouring

wine.

“Millic, should Cin and I just go back?” Bernice asked.

In order to expand the market for Firebird Pharmaceuticals, she managed to get in touch with an old classmate. Bernice found herself standing next to a beautiful woman with a full, fair complexion and a tall, slender figure.

Looking at those men and women, there was a certain sense of repulsion.

She had never been fond of those occasions of eating, drinking, and merriment.

Millie Hale exclaimed, tugging at Bernice’s arm, “Bernie, you invited me to dinner tonight and asked me to introduce you to Mr. Farrington. Now that Mr. Farrington has agreed to meet you, but you want to leave. How am I supposed to explain this to him? Moreover, it’s rare for Mr. Farrington to visit Jadeborough. If you don’t see him tonight, you might miss your chance.”

Bernice’s heart tightened. “But…”

Millie grabbed her arm. “Stop talking. Mr. Farrington will be here soon. Just wait a little longer. Otherwise, where will you find a big client like Mr. Farrington?”

Upon hearing that, Bernice finally nodded in agreement. Mr. Farrington is indeed a big client. With the right collaboration, it’s possible for Firebird Pharmaceuticals’ sales to double or even triple. Even if Grandma and Uncle Bishop’s family make things difficult, it would be pointless.

“Bernie!” Cindy walked in from the outside, her elegant eyebrows furrowed.

She was not particularly fond of these situations either. “Shall we go?” Cindy asked.

Millie gave Cindy a glance. “No, just follow me. I’ll introduce you to some people.”

Cindy and Millie were classmates, but the former didn’t have much fondness for Millie, who had seemed like a social butterfly since their university days.

That day, however, it was Bernice who took the initiative to invite Millie. It wouldn’t be good for her to show too much rejection. “Is there really no problem with Mr. Farrington?” she asked.

“Stop overthinking. Let me introduce you to a few friends.” Millie’s eyes sparkled, deliberately avoiding Cindy’s question, and she pulled Bernice forward.

After a moment of hesitation, Cindy followed.
