Chapter 46: Your Flavour
This banquet of Fashion’s was indeed more than just a gathering of business elites and film celebrities. It concealed the focus of the various factions that had officially surfaced under the dark tides of the business world in the past three years.
The bidding for an eight-sided screen actually represents the right to develop and use an island.
old George sipped his tea while solemnly and carefully flipping through a proposed bidding document on the coffee table, his mouth let out a long sigh, “Finally!”
He waved his hand towards the old butler standing beside him, “Go, call the young master over.”
The old butler answered and went.
Lorcan George was sleeping in his room, reluctantly called up, stretched out and opened his reddened eyes to go to the study to see his unsmiling father.
old George smelled a strong odour of alcohol and asked with a frown, “What, drinking away your sorrows?”
Lorcan George sat down on the sofa with a bum, listlessly, “What do you want to see me about?”
“There is a matter for you to attend to.” old George also did not circle with him, lazy to take care of his childish emotions, said plainly, “two days later, Fashion Group’s banquet, by you to go.”
“What am I going to do?”
“Represent us, THE George Group, to participate in the bidding, remember, make sure to take it down!” old George pointed to the documents on the desktop, “This bid, you can just take a look at it roughly, I will send reliable people to follow you, all you have to do is to understand the importance of this matter, and then attend this banquet as the future power holder of the the George family, and take down this bid according to my plan! ”
Lorcan George listened to his father speak a large paragraph, his tone was unprecedentedly serious, he couldn’t help but ask, “Dad, you want me to take this opportunity to formally enter the business world?”
old George nodded his head, “Of course, you are not too young, in a few years when your ability to mature, the matter of starting a family should also be considered.”
Lorcan George sat up straight and blinked, “What do you mean? You don’t want to force me to marry some rich girl! I don’t like them!”
old George had expected him to say that and grunted contemptuously, “Don’t want me to force you? As long as there is a day when you fail to surpass me, you have to obediently listen to me! In your present state, what ability do you have to resist me?”
Lorcan George made a rare failure to retort.
“In your current state, apart from being the heir of my THE George family, what else do you have? Without that status, you have nothing! If you want to dominate your marriage, you have to show me what you can do first! Look at York Charlie, he’s about the same age as you, and he’s already the president! What can you compare with him?”
Lorcan George’s face became more and more ugly, his eyes almost glowing red.
Especially when he heard the words York Charlie!
When old George saw his face, he knew that he had poked his heart, and only then did he feel that this child was too unproductive. Yes, York Charlie young, in charge of the entire the Charlie Group, and those in the business community, often take him as a latecomer to compare with his own, he felt ashamed of panic!
But these words are not good to speak to his son, say it out is also too self-defeating face, he saw his son was really stimulated by the light, but he did not stop, or continue to add fire, “I heard that York Charlie is also looking at Blanche Capra … ”
Saying this, his tone stalled, and sure enough, he saw Lorcan George’s hand on the sofa clenched into a fist, “Tell me instead, what’s your competitiveness compared to him?”Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
Lorcan George suppressed a low growl, “Dad!”
OLD George also stopped talking when he was fit to do so.
“I know, I will go to the banquet in two days!” In the business world in the future, he would also charge forward and never be willing to be left behind! Never! He must have the power that can compete with York Charlie! He must!
Lorcan George hissed in his heart.
York Charlie, who was unilaterally declared war by Lorcan George, was still working overtime in the president’s office.
It was already nine o’clock in the night, when Secretary Lean refilled his third cup of coffee and brought it in, he saw that President Charlie was still staring at the computer screen, in an extremely serious manner.
“President.” secretary Lean called out.
York Charlie still didn’t move a muscle.
So secretary Lean called out again, “President, coffee!”
Only then did York Charlie look at him with questioning eyes as if he had come back to his senses.
“President, you forgot the time, it’s already nine o’clock, isn’t it time to go home and rest?” Secretary Lean said with concern.
York Charlie gave a soft hmmm and slowly rubbed up his eyebrows, his eyes were a little tired.
“Everything is ready for Fashion’s party in a couple of days, about the bidding, right?” He asked.
Secretary Lean nodded, “Everything is ready, this bidding, absolutely imperative!”
York Charlie laughed softly, “Don’t say it so satisfactorily.”
Secretary Lean froze, and looked to the president of the Lord’s expression, the heart of the slander, said so, but his president of the Lord’s face is clearly full of self-confidence, is bound to win it!
He also heard his mellow voice ringing out, “This banquet, I will not go, let Leon go.” He suddenly wanted to have a date with Blanche Capra on that day.
Secretary Lean froze, “You’re not going? But I just got word that Miss Capra will be following the director.”
York Charlie’s expression froze for a moment, and then slowly pulled back the corner of his mouth, “That … is also good.”
Secretary Lean has always been good at reading people, knowing that the president has changed his mind again, and asked, “Then Leon?”
York Charlie stood up, a leisurely, “Of course he still has to go, the work can not be delayed. As for me, I’ll just go about my own business.”
The two days really flew by.
Blanche Capra had already prepared her dress and called the director the afternoon of the banquet.
The director said that she should wait outside her house.
Then, with plenty of time to spare, Blanche Capra dressed up in a simple, light blue dress with a lot of flair. The skirt was knee-length, and the end of the skirt was embellished with silver embroidery that shimmered in the light. Upwards, it was plain and simple with little decoration, except for a palm-width circle around the waist, made of gauze cut-outs, and at the point where it covered the navel, set with a deep blue stone, like the heart of the ocean.
York Charlie saw Blanche Capra graceful curls standing downstairs figure, deep eyes bloomed a touch of stunning light. She is like the goddess of the sea on the shore of the reef, carrying the breath of the sea breeze penetrates the entire soul of man, light and penetrating, quiet and ethereal.
This was the woman he loved.
York Charlie was drifting in his thoughts when Blanche Capra also caught a glimpse of his car. And, the familiar figure in the car.
Almost subconsciously, she moved back.
But in the next second, she composed herself.
What was there to be afraid of? Wasn’t he her target? Why was the sight of him so scary that she wanted to hide away?
Blanche Capra cursed herself for her lack of talent as she took light steps over to him. York Charlie lowered the half-open window completely and took a deep breath.
“What are you doing?” Blanche Capra was keenly aware of his not-so-subtle movement.
York Charlie raised the corners of his mouth in a bewildering smile, “Smell, you.”
Wasn’t it, the smell of the sea.
Blanche Capra felt her face ignite at his comment and brushed it away in a highly unnatural way, not wanting him to see it, “What the hell are you talking about, can’t understand it.”
“Can’t understand? Then you’re blushing?” York Charlie’s smile deepened.
