Life at the Top

InterContinental Hotel had been operating for nearly a decade now and had received a lot of big shots in the past, but never had anyone booked the entire hotel for an entire day.

This was not just a question of money, but a question of status and identity.

At this moment, both the Gardners and Hulls felt a mixture of emotions.

Norman and Ian exchanged glances with each other, noticing the regret and unease from each other’s faces.

When they received the invitation today, they had been so frightened that they nearly ran away from Swallow Capital.

That invitation was sent by Old Master Law himself!

If this invitation had come some other time, then it would no doubt be a great honor. Even the invitation card would be worth being framed and mounted to the wall.

Now was not the time, though!

The Turners and the Laws, both representing the local faction and Harbor City’s business group, were currently fighting each other!

All the other magnates had hidden for fear that they would suffer, not to mention both of them who were only a tad bit bigger than a shrimp at best!

“Sigh, we really shouldn’t have meddled in this in the first place.”

In the elevator, Norman sighed with an obscure expression.

Norman felt a deep sense of powerlessness when faced with the two behemoths, the Turners and the Laws. He did not have the slightest courage to go against them at all.

However, now that he had chosen to stand with the Turners, Norman simply had no idea how he was going to respond to the banquet invitation.
