Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver

Chapter 284

They walked to the hotel and took the elevator to the rooftop

The rooftop was a banquet hall. Men in black suits stood at the entrance of the elevator lobby. They filled the entire corridor and gave off a daunting presence.

It was clearly closed off to the public.

They were stopped by those men as soon as they stepped out of the elevator. Ted stepped forward and said, “He’s with me, and he’s the boss. I vouch for him.”

Ted seemed to be a regular there who was very familiar with the place. The leader of the bodyguards glanced at Wilbur, nodded, then allowed him to enter.

Wilbur looked at the neverending line of men in black suits as he walled. He said, “You have quite the reputation here.”

“I’ve been messing around in Toneville since I was a kid. Everyone here shows me some respect.”

Wilbur nodded. People like Ted may not be of high status, but he was well–connected. When people needed something, they would seek help from someone like him. He was the kind of person who could navigate social circles with ease, a jack of all

trades.

Wilbur noticed that many people were seated inside upon arriving at the banquet hall. There were also hundreds of men in black suits standing around, openly carrying swords on their backs.
