Chapter 1140:
Jeff, intrigued by the prospect of a conversation with Eileen, asked, âAre you here to see someone specific?â
âYes.â Eileen raised her glass, clinking it with Jeffâs, and said, âCare to guess who Iâm here to see?â
âWell, Iâm not sure,â Jeff said carefully. He believed that since Eileen had come to see someone, it must be work-related. She probably couldnât get an appointment to see that person privately, which was why she had come here. If he guessed incorrectly, he might offend someone. He also thought that Eileen wouldnât reveal the answer.
However, Eileen pointed towards Amoura and Trenton, saying, âSee those two? They came back from abroad, wielding significant influence and took my business partner right away. Thatâs why Iâm here.â
Jeff stood in place, feeling a bead of sweat trickle down his back.
It made sense now why Eileen had seemed unusually chatty todayâshe was using this chance to make her message known. The crowd nearby overheard Eileen and began to question her about the situation.
Eileen responded, âItâs just a minor project; the Ferguson Group isnât really concerned, but weâre intrigued by the Deleon Groupâs boldness, so we decided to come here. Donât read too much into it.â
The crowd chuckled, but they were also alarmed, realizing they needed to distance themselves from the Deleon Group. Otherwise, they would be offending the Ferguson Group, the EB Group, the Apex Group, and the former Warren Group.
On top of that, Eileen had strong ties with the Meyer family, the Clarkson family, and many others. Her network of connections was vast and impressive.
Keep reading at gαlηovelsâ¤cãm To offend her was to offend more than half of the business world. The news spread rapidly, and those who had been trying to curry favor with Amoura quickly abandoned the idea.
Within thirty minutes, everyone around Amoura and Trenton had dispersed.
âWellâ¦â Trenton glanced around and asked Amoura, âWhat happened to them?â
Amoura looked at Eileen, now surrounded by people, and replied, âWhat else could have happened?â
Trenton noticed Eileen and instantly realized that he had crossed her. Now, he believed he needed to ensure the Deleon Groupâs backing in his business dealings.
âMrs. Deleon, letâs discuss the project youâre handling and finalize it tonight. I had intended to give the funds to the Ferguson Group, so Iâve already got everything ready and can provide the money immediately. How does that sound?â Trenton said.
âTake your time,â Amoura said with an air of nonchalance. âYouâve lost a deal with the Ferguson Group, but you can still make money with me.â
Trentonâs eyes lit up with a smile. âYouâre right.â Just then, Trentonâs phone rang. He excused himself and answered the call. Moments later, he exclaimed, âWhat? The Meyer Group had been his long-standing business partner and served as a crucial link to the upper echelons of the business world.â
Now, that link was severed, and his long-term business partner was gone. He couldnât just rely on the Deleon Group. After all, the Deleon Group hadnât established a solid presence in Onaland yet.
After ending the call, Trenton approached Amoura, sweat beading on his forehead, and said, âMrs. Deleon, perhaps we wonât be able to finalize this deal.â
