Chapter 50 Chapter 50 Armand stood in front of the window with downcast eyes. He took out his cell phone and called a number. “Has Jared left the airport?” he asked in a low voice. “Yes, the executive assistant, Mr. Sullivan, went to pick him up himself. They’re in the same car,” the man on the other end of the line reported. “Zephyr has gone with them too.” Armand smirked slightly. “It looks like this is really important to Jack.” “It’s a potential deal worth billions after all. He has meticulously planned out every aspect of this. There’s no loophole for anyone to exploit.” Armand’s eyes looked cold. “How confident are you that you can get close to him?” The man on the other end of the line replied, “Not at all. Sullivan will be with him throughout the entire trip, and Mr. Yancey himself will be receiving Jared himself. I’m not even sure which hotel Jared will be lodging at. The entire arrangement is very confidential. I only know that Jared will be visiting the offices first.”
“Alright,” Armand ended the call in a bad mood. Once the partnership materialized, Jack’s place in Senior Yancey’s heart would ascend. It would be even more difficult to overthrow him. In addition, his prestige and power in their various social circles would also be further established. A sophisticated team welcomed Jared at the first-floor entrance of the main office building, in front of the great hall. High-ranking executives of the company were present, each dressed in impeccable suits. They represented the company. and were the cream of the crop in the Yancey Group. Jack Yancey was also there, of course. He stood against the sunlight with his great stature like a go d, born with a natural finesse that showed in every gesture he made. He was already exuding a strong and unshakeable aura despite being so
young. Michael had just sent him a text. They were arriving in three minutes. The familiar car came into sight; it was a historical moment for the Yancey Group. A high-profile reception ensued. A suave bodyguard opened the car door. Jared stepped out in the midst of flashing lights as though he was in a slow-motion movie scene. This middle-aged man had a stalwart figure and wore a hat. He was a typical foreigner. He did not seem arrogant but was definitely an austere man. Jack walked up to welcome him personally. This man was a veteran on the business markets; there was much to learn from him. “Welcome to Rheinsville City,” Jack said in English. “I’m Jack Yancey.” He knew that Jared was exceptionally fluent in English and was fond of the local culture. “It’s a pleasure to meet you,” Jared looked at him in admiration. “A young and promising man, you are.” Jack did not stretch his hand towards Jared for a handshake. His sources had kept him well-informed; Jared was a germaphobe and did not accept any form of physical contact with anyone. Jared’s assistant also got out of the car. Even he kept a certain distance away from Jared. Michael and the bodyguard stepped out after him. “Please, come in.” Next on the agenda was a personal tour with Jack around the offices. A line of company executives stood at the entrance and saluted Jared respectfully as a welcome. Armand had gone down to the first floor. He stood in a discreet corner not far away from the merriment and kept his eyes on Jared the entire time. He watched Jared and Jack as they conversed while they walked. Jack was about to introduce the company’s corporate culture to Jared so that he could have a thorough understanding of the Yancey Group. This deal must be extremely crucial for Jack to be doing the exposition personally. There was no chance at all for Armand to be up to mischief because Jack stayed by Jared’s side the entire time. This made him feel despondent. As the two men entered the elevator with exclusive access for the president, Armand’s cold eyesConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
narrowed. Jack was an eyesore that he could not get rid of! 1/2
