Greyson’s haughty demeanor vanished the moment he learned that the man before him was Uncle Oscar.
During his time studying in Aurous Hill, he hade to understand the immense influence of the Moore family, who stood at the pinnacle of the city’s social hierarchy.
Despite being a well-known businessman in Hong Kong with a worth in the hundreds of millions, he was no match for the Moore family’s vast wealth, which reached into the hundreds of billions—making their butler’s status far more powerful than his own.<fn8c07> Read full story at Find★Novel</fn8c07>
Paul was both ttered and surprised by Uncle Oscar’s presence in the suite.
With a warm smile, Oscar addressed him, saying, “Mr. Paul, your connection with the Moore family is noteworthy. When the family was establishing their export operations in the U.S., I had the privilege of apanying Lord Moore on site visits. Whenever we faced legal challenges, it was your father who came to our rescue. In fact, they shared a personal friendship, although you might not be aware of this since you were still in school at that time.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Oscar continued, “Thus, to the Moore family, you are the son of their savior. We cannot overlook your needs and services, as it reflects on our hospitality and our manners.”
Paul nodded in appreciation. “Uncle Oscar, please extend my thanks to Lord Moore and let him know I intend to visit him personally once I’ve settled my affairs and mypany begins to thrive in Aurous Hill.”
Uncle Oscar replied with a warm smile, “Absolutely. Just reach out to me, and I’ll arrange the time and ce. I don’t want to impose, so I’ll have the kitchen serve your meal now.”
Paul responded, “Alright, I need to leave as well. Let’s head out together.”
“Sounds good,” Oscar nodded.
As they were about to exit the suite, Greyson quickly stepped forward and said with respect, “Hello, Mr. Oscar. I’m Greyson Tate from Hong Kong Huisite Trading Company. It’s a pleasure to meet you!”
Oscar looked at him with a hint of skepticism and replied, “I’m sorry, but I’m not familiar with yourpany. Do you have any business coboration with the Moore family?”
Greyson bowed slightly and replied graciously, “Oh, I must admit, I have always aspired to work with the Moore family but have yet to find an opportunity. I would be grateful if you could assist me in being introduced to them.”
Oscar smiled politely. “I appreciate your kind words, but the Moore family has very high standards for their partners. With all due respect, if I have not heard of yourpany, I doubt they would consider a coboration.”
As a seasoned butler who had served a powerful family for many years, Oscar was well-versed in the family’s business affairs and had a solid understanding of prominentpanies nationwide.
If he had never encountered thepany’s name, it likely meant it was a smaller, second-tier firm that wouldn’t be considered by a prestigious family like the Moores.
Greyson stood frozen in awkwardness. He hadn’t anticipated such a straightforward rejection from Oscar, despite the butler’s diplomatic tone. Although he was frustrated, he dared not show his dissatisfaction and instead responded respectfully, “I apologize, Mr. Oscar. That was indeed an unreasonable request on my part!”
He then sat down, his face burning with embarrassment. Had he known this would be the oue, he would have avoided such humiliation. Not only had he failed to gain anything, but he had also tarnished his reputation in front of his peers.
Oscar gave a slight nod in response, exuding an air of majesty and confidence. This was to be expected, as he had long been regarded as a respected figure in the upper echelons of Aurous Hill.<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
