He felt a mix of confusion and nonchnce. An invitation had already been sent to Emgrand Group, which meant Doris Young was definitely on her way.


    She was likely busy preparing a gift, considering her absence!


    With an air of arrogance, Christopher remarked, “So, do you really think you’re so well-connected?”


    It was nearly ten o’clock, and if there were any guests expected, they should have arrived by now.


    However, the entrance remained silent and empty. It seemed clear that no one wasing.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Wendy chimed in with a smug tone, “Dad, that loser said it doesn’t matter if no onees today; he believes he’s enough on his own. I’m curious how powerful he thinks he is. Does he really believe he holds any significance here in Aurous Hill?”


    Just then, a voice from the front desk echoed from a distance, seemingly raised intentionally.


    “Announcing the arrival of Mr. Travis Lane of Lancaster…”<fn95e6> Original content can be found at find{n}ovel</fn95e6>


    Travis Lane?


    Charlie felt a wave of confusion wash over him. Thest time he saw Travis was during the metaphysicspetition, where the White family had brought Jack Yaleman, and Charlie had summoned the Thunder Order to defeat him. He hadn’t invited Travis to his wife’s opening ceremony, so what was he doing here?


    The Wilson family was equally taken aback!


    Travis Lane? The wealthiest individual in Lancaster? What brought him here?


    Upon entering, Travis made a beeline for Charlie’s office without hesitation.


    The Wilson family exchanged astonished and bewildered nces. Christopher stepped forward, saying, “I met a businessman from Lancaster a few days ago who mentioned having a close connection to Travis Lane. Could it be that he introduced me to him?”


    With that thought, Christopher adjusted his outfit and approached Travis to greet him.


    Lady Wilson and the rest of the family followed him, cautious and uncertain.


    As the plump Travis entered the office, hepletely overlooked Christopher’s eager greeting. Instead, he went directly to Charlie, eximing in a high-pitched voice, “Mr… Mr. Wade, I’m so d to be here!”


    Everyone stood in shock as Charlie calmly responded, “What brings you here?”


    Travis replied with respect, “Mr. Wade, it’s your wife’s office opening today. I had toe to congratte both you and her!”


    Christopher caught up and interjected, a broad smile stered on his face, “Wee, Mr. Lane! Let’s head inside for a discussion. It’s not suitable for you to be standing out here…”


    Travis, eager to impress Charlie, became visibly irritated at the interruption. His cheerful demeanor shifted as he red at Christopher, akin to a king looking down at a mere subject, and coldly stated, “Who are you? Can’t you see I’m in conversation with Mr. Wade?”


    Feeling the awkwardness, Christopher cleared his throat and attempted again, “I’m Christopher Wilson… May I ask if Mr. Mark from Lancaster mentioned me to you?”


    Travis frowned, clearly annoyed, and responded, “I don’t know you, nor do I know any Mr. Mark. I’m here to congratte Mrs. Wade on her office opening!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
