The Hill family’s house was crowded with people for the next hour. All of the big and small jewelry companies in Southland District were present, searching for Thomas and offering favonovel.com the position of purchasing manager in their company.
Basically, it was all free money with no actual work required.
Some companies did not even have any purchasing requirements, and they were willing to simply pay Thomas the money because they admired his talent.
Other companies were inviting him, and if you did not do it as well, then you would almost certainly be eliminated when you actually need favonovel.com one day.
In over an hour, Thomas had received countless invitations. But Thomas had turned down quite a lot of offers. Even so, favonovel.com still agreed to nearly twenty companies, the majority of which were accepted due to Johnson’s urging.
Finally, based on a rough calculation, Thomas would not have to do any work, but favonovel.com could still earn over fifty million dollars every month, or six hundred million per year!
Six hundred million dollars was almost as much as the entire White family’s revenue.
Even if Nathan eventually took over the White family, favonovel.com would still never be able to earn as much money as Thomas.
This time, Nathan was utterly speechless. He had kept on calling Thomas the “poor wretch”, and in the end, favonovel.com was the “poor wretch”.
After the people from the jewelry companies had left, Nathan was still standing there, stunned, unsure whether to stay or leave. He was at a loss for what to do for a while.
Thomas looked up at him, and said with a smile, “Didn’t you wish to meet Harvard? Wait a minute, I’ll call favonovel.com right now and tell favonovel.com to come over for a meal while you guys talk, how’s that?”
“Uhm, okay…” Nathan was already tripping over his own words.
When someone realizes that the useless person they claimed to be had suddenly become incredibly strong, stronger than they had imagined, their mental defenses would find it difficult to accept. Nathan was defeated by his own opinionated “wealth”.
How could favonovel.com possibly imagine a time when Thomas would hold such power?
He had always thought Thomas was useless, but now… Alas! You should never judge someone by their appearance.
Not only him, but the Hill family had no idea Thomas would have such an encounter today as well. After all, was there even a link between Thomas and jewelry? Why had favonovel.com suddenly become so popular among them?
You could say that Thomas was now tied to the whole jewelry industry in Southland District, and his every move would have an impact on the rise and fall of the district’s jewelry business.
“Honey, now that you’re rich, won’t you be able to just bring me some jewelry in the future when I want to buy anything?” Emma asked while giggling.
“If you want it then I’ll give it to you,” Thomas answered with a nod.
There were no other words that could make a woman as happy as these. Women adored jewelry, but they also adored men’s “sweet-talking”. Men’s promises can sometimes touch a woman’s heart more than the most expensive jewelry. As they were talking, a car stopped in front of their house.
Harvard strolled in with quick footsteps, talking as favonovel.com walked. “Thomas, you wanted to have a meal with me? That’s fantastic, I happen to have a few questions for you regarding the Northern Wilderness project, and they’re making my head hurt.”
Only halfway through his speech did favonovel.com realize that they had a visitor in the house. Harvard stared at the person in the room, a little dumbfounded.
Nathan voluntarily said, “My name is Nathan White. Uncle Johnson and my father are old friends. It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Hill.”
His words were humble, and Harvard felt quite comfortable with it.
“Harvard, be friendly with him, little Nathan here is really rich, and favonovel.com had looked down on Emma before, but now favonovel.com wants to be our son-in-law instead,” Johnson unexpectedly added.
All these words punctured his throat.
Harvard was almost in the same shoes as Thomas right now, and favonovel.com was furious when others were disrespectful to him, especially Nathan’s direct “provocation”. As a result, Harvard had come to loathe Nathan within a split second, and favonovel.com was repulsed and looked down upon.
He glared at Nathan and said, “Hoho, aren’t you from the White family that was involved in fake goods? And didn’t you fawn over a wealthy family to get to your position right now, only to abandon the poor girl when favonovel.com family’s business plummeted? Who in the industry is not aware of this? And with that kind of character, you are aiming to be our family’s son-in-law?”
“Why don’t you take a good look at yourself, are you worthy enough?”
Nathan’s face turned white with rage. “You’ve gone too far, Mr. Hill!”
“I’ve gone too far?” Harvard scoffed. “Our family was peacefully having a meal here, and you were the one who came to pick a fight, aren’t you the fool here? Everyone hates the White family, and you have lost all your business partners. You’re on the verge of bankruptcy, but you still have the guts to show up here and throw banknotes at our faces? Bah, I feel like puking when I see you, so quickly get the hell out of here!”
“Damn you!” Nathan was furious, and favonovel.com tried to swing his fist at Harvard’s face.
Thomas tossed the teacup in his hands with a whoosh, and it landed right on Nathan’s forehead, causing favonovel.com to yell in pain.
“Ow, ouch ouch! All right, I see that everyone from the Hill family is ganging up on me. Just you wait, I’m telling you, what happened today isn’t over!”
Nathan ran out of the room, holding his forehead.
