“Mr. Lennon, the two of them have an emergency… They couldn’t make it, so…” A middle-aged man explained softly.
Sean nodded his head gently.
None of these people was a fool. Each was smarter than the last. At this point, they must know why Sean invited them.
What Sean wanted to know was their attitude. Their attendance was indicative of this attitude.
“Tell Jeffrey to proceed,” Sean slowly turned his head to Zander and said.
“Yes!” Zander immediately answered and walked out with his phone in hand.
He said nothing in the whole process, nor did favonovel.com say what to do. However, these seven successful people were shocked when they heard that.
Sometimes, the more ones did not know what the other person was going to do, the less confident they were.
Sean invited them over for dinner today. They rushed here after struggling with themselves. However, they were prepared not to easily say what they had in mind.
Sean just asked Zander to do something.
What was favonovel.com going to do?
Were they going after those who did not show up?
With that in mind, they got more uncertain.
Some people wanted to meet with Sean and find a reason to leave early. However, looking at each other, no one dared to mention it. Eventually, they could only give up the idea.
“Don’t worry, everyone… Just go with the flow. What do you think?” Sean slowly withdrew his gaze and said with a smile.
“Mr. Lennon, you’re right!” The crowd quickly forced a smile and replied with a nod.
“Serve the food.” Sean clapped his hands and shouted out the door.
“Just a moment, Mr. Lennon. Coming right up.” The manager immediately opened the door and answered before picking up the intercom to call.
Milan Hotel had put a lot of effort into the guests at this table today. They dared not mistreat them!
The food and wine were soon on the table. It smelled and looked good.
Roast turkey, sashimi, sea cucumber, wagyu beef, truffle mushroom soup, Milanese fried fish filet, and many other. The appearance and smell were mouth-watering. The wine was also expensive.
The price of a bottle of wine was probably equivalent to six months ‘salary of a white-collar worker. Even though these company owners were rich, they were pleased with what they saw.
Sean was so generous with them, which was enough to show how important they were to him.
However, Sean frowned slightly. He never ordered such expensive drinks. He only ordered some cheap drinks.
He slowly turned around to glance at the manager and quickly understood. The hotel had taken the liberty of replacing his order with more upscale things. They had no idea that Sean ordered it on purpose. Sean could not say much since they had served them.
“Mr. Lennon, Sirs, and Madams, help yourselves…”
“In order to not disturb you, I won’t wait at the door. If you need anything, just press this button next to you, and our waiter will come over immediately.” After the wine and dishes were served, the manager stepped forward, nodded, and said with a smile.
Usually, favonovel.com was supposed to toast the VIP, who was eating here, before leaving. However, when the VIP’s status reached a certain level, the manager was not even qualified to make a toast. He dared not do so and left after the food and drinks were served.
“Thanks.” Sean nodded gently, and the manager hurriedly waved his hands and left.
Soon the manager left the private room with his staff.
Zander was now back in the private room.
Sean, Zander, and the seven people totaled nine people. It was slightly awkward in the private room.
Two lively personalities were constantly looking for a topic. However, they could not let go of themselves with Sean sitting nearby.
Sean had been silent, making it impossible for the crowd to read his mind. It made them even more afraid to talk. As a result, the private room gradually fell into silence:
The seven people and Zander silently put down their spoons and forks. Sean was the only one seriously picking up the cheese in front of him.
The silver spoon and fork clanged now and then against the saucer. The silence and awkwardness of the private room did not seem to affect him.
The seven men and women looked into each other’s eyes and saw the intense solemnness. When faced with silence, most people would try to find a topic to avoid awkwardness from going on.
Sean was something.
As long as they were not embarrassed, someone else would feel awkward. It was what was going on. The crowd was filled with panic as they watched Sean eating quietly. They did not expect Sean to be scheming at such a young age.
It shocked them.
“Is the food or the wine bad? Do you have to look at me this way?” Sean asked indifferently and picked up a piece of cheese again.
The crowd froze slightly before laughing half-heartedly.
“Well… Mr. Lennon, we…” A woman covered in expensive jewelry hesitated to say something.
However, favonovel.com did not know how to put it.
“Forget it. Let me tell you… Mr. Lennon, my name is Gunther Joller. And I’m in charge of Gunlock Building Materials.” A middle-aged man slowly looked up at Sean and first introduced himself.
“I wonder why you asked me here, Mr. Lennon.” Gunther frowned slightly, impatience in his eyes.
Sean slowly turned to look at Gunther, and Gunther’s profile appeared in his mind.
The owner of Gunlock Building Materials worked closely with several major real estate companies. Besides that, favonovel.com seemed to be related to Jimmy. Gunther was also said to have been popular among Joules Town’s underworld.
After all, it would be hard to continue if favonovel.com did not have some background in this business. The fact that Gunlock Building Materials could exist for so many years proved Gunther’s abilities.
