Chapter 469

Emeric squinted his eagle–like eyes, exuding an aura of calm composure and dignified majesty as he firmly shook hands with William

In every aspect, he held his own.

“About that incident of the horse racing track, I hope I haven’t caused you any distress, Mr. Morris. My daughter is a bit of a wild child, lacking in worldly experience. If she’s stepped out of line, I hope you’ll forgive her Emeric’s smile was gracious, paired with his deep, resonant voice, revealed the unmistakable presence of an aristocrat.

The crowd was stunned.

Had they seen this right?

The scion of an old money dynasty heir to a royal lineage, and the helmsman of a top–tier financial empire was now extending a friendly, hand to Emeric! The Ashbournes, despite their lavish wealth, only dominated their corner of Skyrim.

But the Abernathy and Chambers Groups were the top of Elmsworth’s local elite. How could William just overlook them in favor of Emeric? Truly Emeric’s influence was formidable!

At that moment, Frederic, Barry, and Jeff also made their way over, standing to one side,

These three heavy–hitters had varied expressions, each with their own cunning plans

Frederic, in particular, seemed to have trouble maintaining his composure, his jawline tout as a blade’s edge.

In the Elmsworth circle, it was common knowledge that the J Group’s first domestic business venture had gone to the Abernathy Group. At a time when their relationship was in a delicate phase, William seemed cool towards Frederic, instead appearing closer to Emeric, with whom he had no business ties.

This

WDS somewhat of a sub to Frederic, a form of invisible suppression.

*Chairman Emeric, you’re too modest.”

William continued to heap praise upon Evadne, sparing no compliments, “Your daughter is a rare gem- not only is she breathtakingly beautiful, but her equestrian skila rival those of professional nders. Among our nation’s lady riders, she’s top–tier. After the racing event, Ford couldn’t stop singing Ms. Evadne’s praises and hoped for another meeting. Both share a passion for horses, and I’m sure they’ll find plenty to talk about”

William gestured to his son, who straightened his tie and walked over with poise.

Ford glanced at Thaddeus with a smirk that was unsettling.

Thaddeus clenched his fiats, his eyes suddenly filled with icy ferocity, as rage smoldered within him!

‘Damn, Thad, is that blond prick provoking you?” Jareth noticed and clenched his own fists, “We’re in Elmsworth, not abroad. What’s he playing at, acting all high and mighty here? Bloody foreigner!”
