Chapter 1170

8 a.m.

The groundbreaking ceremony was already packed with people.

Besides the owners of River City companies, plenty of ordinary people came to jump on the bandwagon.

After all, there would be gift exchanges at such a large–scale groundbreaking ceremony.

Some were originally residents of the downtown area.

The first demolition of the old town would take place today.

Therefore, these people had also come to take a last look at their former residence.

The ceremony was crowded, and countless cars gathered from all directions.

It was very busy.

The area was divided into two.

There were no restrictions at the far end, and it was full of spectators.

If you wanted to enter, you must be a company or a party that Reach For Will Group had invited.

Either you were someone influential, or you had an invitation.

There were many security guards on site. Irrelevant people could forget about sneaking in.

The ceremony began at 9 a.m., and many company bosses had reached the venue.

The onlookers outside looked enviously at these successful people.

“Wow, how impressive! Is that Mr. Luke?

“Yes, yes. That’s Mr. Luke from our district, and the one next to him should be Director Wool.

“Gosh, some big shots from the government are here too.”

As the crowd looked around, many familiar faces appeared.

The more people who came, the higher their status, which proved how powerful Reach For Will Group was.

There was no doubt that Reach For Will Group would become the top company in River City’s business circle in the future.

It was something everyone could foretell.

“Well, I don’t think I got an invitation.”

Chadwick, head of the Summers family, was a little confused when he saw everyone else with an invitation card.

Sean never told him about some invitation card!

Therefore, Chadwick was embarrassed to see those around him enter with invitations.

“Mr. Summers, you’re Mr. Lennon’s friend. You don’t need an invitation…

“Please enter!”

The two employees in charge of going through the invitation cards instantly said with a laugh. “Is that so? Okay, okay!”

Chadwick was instantly relieved.

He had been a little embarrassed earlier about not having an invitation.

Now, it seemed he could get in even without an invitation, which was more flattering! Representatives of companies from outside River City also entered with invitations.

These companies had already contacted Reach For Will Group last night.

They would be given VIP invitations if they were qualified or considered to have potential by Reach For Will Group.

Therefore, these company representatives followed the crowd into the venue.

A middle–aged man walked steadily toward the entrance.

Two assistants and a very well–dressed girl were beside the middle–aged man.

The girl was no other than Jane.

This middle–aged man was Jane’s father, of course.

“Dad, can we go in?”

A little worried, Jane asked as she gripped her father’s arm.

Sean gave her a good lesson yesterday and said he would bar them from the ceremony.

It left Jane a little unsure.

“Of course, we can.”

It did not bother Jane’s father, Jimmy Lidell.

He did not believe that Jane’s friend could decide whether their company could attend the ceremony.

How ridiculous.

“We passed Reach For Will Group’s qualification test yesterday.

“And we got a VIP invitation.”

Jimmy took out his invitation, looking smug.

After all, it was an honor to pass Reach For Will Group’s qualification verification test.

It also showed that Reach For Will Group valued their company.

Even a senior executive of Reach For Will Group could not refuse their entrance, not to mention Jane’s friend.

“Great! That’s great.”

Jane was relieved, and a smile appeared on her face.

At the same time, she felt like she had overreacted.

After all, their company was large.

It was ridiculous that a nobody like Sean could decide whether his family could attend the ceremony.

“Watch how I’ll ridicule them when I see them again.”

Jane mumbled under her breath and followed Jimmy to the entrance.

“This is ours.”

Jimmy took out his VIP invitation and threw it on the table.

He was so smug that he looked like a spoilt brat.

“Billion Trees Real Estate?

“Sorry, you can’t enter.”

A young man picked it up to look and replied indifferently.
