The Ex and Her Riches

Remus immediately got up to greet Treyton in an ingratiating manner.

“You’re finally here, Mr. Treyton. Please, have a seat.”

With furrowed brows, Treyton snapped unceremoniously, “Are you annoyed that I’m late?”

“Oh, of course not. I’m honored to have my restaurant be blessed with your presence. How could I possibly criticize you?” Remus then slapped his own mouth lightly and smiled apologetically. “I shouldn’t have said that. I hope you don’t take it to heart, Mr. Treyton.”

Treyton glowered at him, feeling reluctantly satisfied with his attitude.

Being no fool, Remus quickly sensed Treyton’s hostility toward him. It was obvious that Treyton was asserting his dominance to bruise Remus ego when he snapped at the latter as soon as he came in.

However, Remus needed his help, so he wore a smile on his face and humbly invited Treyton to his seat before diligently pouring wine for the latter.

“Mr. Treyton, let me offer you a toast first as my apology.”

Glancing at the wine glass next to his hand, Treyton did not reach out to hold it. With a cold voice, he prompted, “Cut to the chase. I’m too busy to see you beat around the bush.”

Remus was stunned for a while.

Having been dissed again, he felt awkward. He had no choice but to put down his wine glass and tell him about the purpose of the meeting embarrassingly. “I wonder if you know about the trending topic about Abbot Group recently.”

Saying nothing. Treyton stared at him coldly, with an unfriendly attitude.

Remus had no choice but to lower his head and go on, “Two days ago, it suddenly broke out on the internet that there is a problem with Abbot Group’s food safety. The news exaggerates things, but the netizens believe it. The business of the hotels and restaurants under Abbot Group has been slow these few days, and our stock price is still falling. I’ve spent a lot of money and come up with many solutions, but the news remains popular. I don’t know whom my company has offended that it has to experience such targeted hostility.” With a bitter face, he continued to plead with a lowly stance, “Mr. Treyton, you own half of the entertainment industry. You only need to raise your hand and make a phone call to cool things down. I’ll give my all to get you whatever you want!”

Treyton had been waiting for him to make such a promise. “I can help you remove the trending topic about Abbot Group and even clarify that its food safety issue is just a rumor to restore its reputation.”

Remus was pleasantly surprised, as if a good deal had fallen into his lap. “You’re the best, Mr. Treyton! You’re basically like a god! Whatever you need, I will spare no effort to help you get it!”
