Ryanâs face instantly turned pale!
However, all the banquet guests were staring at him, especially the beautiful Victoria who was right beside him!
âI canât panic. I canât let them notice anything fishy!â
Ryan forced a smile and said, âHaha, thank you Mr. Willis. I told you we have a good relationship and weâd definitely continue with the cooperation. Iâve already prepared the renewal fee for this round. Iâve prepared a million dollars!â
James said over the phone, âIâm sorry, Mr. Dunn, our company has sent someone from the headquarters to take over Ubereats Delivery in Orlando. We donât need a general agent anymore.â
Ryanâs heart was filled with despair, but he was still laughing out loud. âItâs alright, no problem, we must drink to our heartâs content when we meet!â
James was somewhat confused. He said, âDid you actually hear what I said? You are no longer the agent, and no amount of money you spend will matter!â
Ryan said, âOkay, okay, Mr. Willis, rest assured, we will definitely have a joyous cooperation in the future!â
James said, âYou must be out of your mind. Youâre not replying to what I said! Anyway, when the agency contract expires next month, the headquarters will send someone over to take over. Thatâs all I have to say, bye.â
Ryan exclaimed, âOkay, Mr. Willis, letâs meet again!â
Ryan smiled and hung up.
Jordan frowned in puzzlement. âCould it be that Butler Frank hasnât informed James yet?â
âWhy did Ryan have such a happy chat with James?â
The others could only hear Ryan talking, but they could not listen to what he was saying over the phone.
Drew was the first one to walk over. âMr. Dunn, based on what you mentioned just now, I assume that the contract renewal has been settled?â
Ryan smiled and said, âOf course, itâs going to be a pleasant cooperation!â
Drew hurriedly raised his glass and said, âCome on, Mr. Dunn, let me toast to you. I wish you boundless prosperity!â
âThank you, Mr. Camden.â Ryan said as he raised his glass of white wine and chugged it in one go!
Drew exclaimed in surprise, âWow, youâre really straightforward, Mr. Dunn, you chugged it all!â
Victoria also picked up her glass and said, âMr. Dunn, I can tell that youâre very close to Mr. Willis.â
After chugging that glass of wine, Ryan felt a little upset because of the melancholy within him. However, he soon filled his glass to the brim again.
Victoriaâs charming face gradually became blurred in Ryanâs vision.
Ryan said, âOf course, Mr. Willis and I have been through thick and thin!â
Victoria said, âI shall toast to you too, Mr. Dunn. I wish you a prosperous business, and I hope that weâll have the chance to get to know Mr. Willis through you.â
Ryan clinked glasses with Victoria and said, âItâs just a minor matter. Let me arrange it.â
Ryan drank another glass of wine, and the people around him cheered incessantly.
âMr. Dunn, you can really hold your liquor well!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou seem to be in great spirits. Now that the renewal contract has been signed, Mr. Dunn. Youâre in the mood to drink, arenât you?â
However, after less than two minutes, the crowd suddenly realized that Ryan was crying while drinking.
His tears landed on the colorless white wine and mixed with it.
âMr. Dunn, why are you crying? Are you alright?â Victoria hurriedly asked.
At this juncture, Jordan shook his head and said helplessly,
âRyan, stop trying to hang on if you canât. Even if you want to boast, there is a time and place to do so. Is there a point in pretending? Who canât tell that you are pretending? Why do you not dare to tell everyone that you have been removed as an agent?â
Jordan said to Ryan the exact words that the latter had said to him!
In fact, Victoria and the others had long since sensed that there was something wrong with Ryan. If he had really clinched the contract renewal, he would not be behaving in such an extreme manner.
He should only behave that way if the contract renewal had fallen through.
Ryan knew that he did not have a strong background or business empire. He only managed to mix into the upper-class circle of Orlando a few years ago and become the general agent of Ubereats Delivery, all thanks to luck.
Once he was no longer the agent, he would not be fit to chat and laugh with the people in this room!
Hence, he had to pretend!
However, Jordan had now mercilessly exposed him!
In a drunken stupor, Ryan slapped the table and then walked towards Jordan.
âSo what if my license has been revoked!?! Only because Ubereats Delivery wants to take over personally and will no longer need an agent did I get removed. Itâs not because of you, loser!â
Jordan smiled calmly and sipped on some tea. âInteresting, you clearly saw me making a call, and now youâre taking the initiative to clear my name.â
âHaha, since you think I didnât do it, fine, I canât be bothered to have another enemy either.â
The guests were all discussing and speculating if Ryanâs agent license revocation had anything to do with Jordan.
Most of the people there had just declared solidarity with the Camdens to cut off Jordanâs future!
If Jordan was really that powerful, they would be unable to bear the consequences!
Seeing this, Benedict hurriedly stood up and said, âEveryone, donât panic. This definitely has nothing to do with our familyâs loser of a son-in-law. His grandfather is a farmer, and he definitely wouldnât know Mr. Willis who is in the capital!â
Sylvie also got up and said, âYes, this good-for-nothing has been our son-in-law for three years, and he has always obeyed all our instructions. If he really knows such a powerful figure, how could he be willing to be our dog for three years?â
