Chapter 388

In the city office, Wyatt waved his secretary away while holding the phone, and politely said to the person on the other end, "Ms. Zeller, what can I do for you?"

In the Chambers Group meeting room, Yvette spoke with a somewhat cool tone over the phone, "Is it okay if I put it on speaker?"

Wyatt quickly agreed, "Of course, no problem. Since everyone we're discussing is someone Ms. Zeller knows."

After placing her phone on the table, Yvette pressed the speaker button in front of everyone in the meeting room. A voice, both familiar and unfamiliar, came through, "Hello, what do you need?"

Lucas, behind Yvette, lifted his head immediately. He wasn't sure if others recognized the voice, but he was quite familiar with it, having heard it just a few days ago. Yvette was really brave. When she fought back, it was fatal.

It was funny that Nelson and Warron tried to scare Yvette with Wyatt. Now Yvette called him directly. Lucas was curious about what they do next.

Everyone else in the meeting room exchanged puzzled glances. They were discussing the case about the eastern suburb project and wondering why Yvette was suddenly on a call with a stranger.

People below started whispering, "Who is Ms. Zeller calling during the case discussion? How did it end up in a phone call?"

"I wonder if it's a big shot Ms. Zeller is contacting to pull some strings."

"He doesn't seem like it at all. Have you ever seen someone powerful be so approachable? The way she's talking doesn't sound like someone asking for a favor."

"I think so too. Do you think... Could she have called Mr. Langford, the mayor?"

"Stop dreaming. How would she have the mayor's private number? You're crazy to even think that. Wake up. Even our chairman probably doesn't have his number." "You're right too. I'm just kidding. But what if she does know him? Ms. Zeller returned from Betrico, so it's quite normal for her to be acquainted with some big officials." "Do you think all officials have nothing to do? With their status, why would they casually call up a chess player? That's absurd."

Just then, the man on the other end said, "This is Wyatt."

Everyone's eyes instantly locked onto the phone on the table. Their faces were frozen in shock, eyes wide with surprise, and a few even showed clear disbelief.

Nelson's hand shook as he held the cup, looking incredibly shocked Hot water spilled onto his hand, but he couldn't even bother about the pain.
