Jacob brought Wyatt to the private room where his father was discussing business.

As they moseyed to the room, Jacob chatted, “It’s not just Hausen. Stargrasp’s CEO will also be there. If you managed to collaborate with them, remember to give me a small share of the benefits, Wyatt. A little bit is all that I ask.”

As Wyatt bit onto a lit cigarette and put his lighter back into his pocket, he smacked the back of his friend’s head. “I know. I won’t forget about you.”

Jacob snickered. “Thank you! You’re the most generous guy I know, Wyatt!”

When they arrived at the room, he led Wyatt inside.

The room was huge. While the light was dim, they could still see a couple of men sitting on the couch discussing something.

“Dad,” Jacob greeted one of the men and pointed at Wyatt. “I don’t think I need to introduce who Wyatt is to you all.”

Nathaniel Valentine glanced at Wyatt with a smile. “Of course, I know the young and accomplished Mr. Lopez.”

“Compared to you all, I’m still unremarkable,” Wyatt replied humbly. “I haven’t taken over Lopez Group for long, so I still don’t have many resources under my belt. Jacob mentioned you’re discussing business here, so I thought I’d come to learn from you all.”

In response, Nathaniel pretended to be angry. “You shouldn’t say that, you know. You may be young, but you’re outstanding. Since you’re a friend of my son, you can consider me a friend, too. In fact, I can’t wait to initiate a long-term collaboration with Lopez Group.”

The edges of Wyatt’s lips curved upward slightly. “As long as you’re willing to, we can discuss any form of collaboration.”

As he spoke, he sat on the couch.

Nathaniel proceeded to introduce him to the other men sitting on the couch.

When Wyatt heard their names, he recalled they were the five people Jessica still hadn’t removed from her notes.

Beaming, he shook hands with each of them. This is my lucky day. All five of them are here in the same room.

Hausen’s CEO and the others only had a friendly relationship with Gerald, and they clearly looked down on the young Wyatt. However, because Wyatt had taken over Lopez Group, they still showed him some respect.
