Chapter 69
After Hannah and Roderick walked past some other suites on the floor, they arrived at the entrance of the Comfort Suite, where Roderick was heading.Before them was a sleek and modern door that looked very nice. Below the door handle, some buttons served as the control.Hannah pressed the bell button, and in a moment, the door slowly opened.A young and beautiful lady wearing a lovely purple off-shoulder gown stepped out gently. It was none other than Kate Bolton.Hannah greeted her and pointed at Roderick. "Ma'am, your visitor is here."As soon as she raised her head and saw Roderick behind Hannah, her face lit up with happiness. "Mr. Holmes, you are finally here."The War King managed to give her a slight smile, reciprocating the warmth.Kate had informed Hannah earlier, after paying for the floor, that she would be expecting visitors and wanted them to be treated with the utmost honor.Any form of disrespect towards them would not be tolerated.This was one of the major reasons why
Chapter 68
Jonah secretly flashed a few dollar bills to the receptionist to persuade her.He believed so much in bribing. It had always been his way out in settling situations like this.Even though his last attempt at such, at Ace Company's dinner party the other day, nearly got him into trouble,he believed nothing like that would happen this time around. Moreover, he was dealing with a lady.Everybody knows the fastest way to a lady's heart is money. He believed there was no way she would decline this nice offer.Surprisingly to Jonah, the receptionist shook her head in disagreement and replied professionally, "I'm sorry, sir. Bribery is prohibited here. It's against management's rules. And for your request, I'm afraid it can never be granted. Every customer must purchase a membership card before they can enjoy any service here."Jonah felt pained in his heart, listening to the loudmouth receptionist. He offered her the tip secretly. He expected her response to be secret, too, when she knew s

All attention quickly shifted to the young heir as he shouted at the top of his lungs.The Santos family stared at him with concern as his voice rose higher, as if he had been bitten by a snake.Indeed, ten million dollars is a whole lot of money. In fact, even Clara's life savings weren't that much. But they never expected such an amount to be a big deal to the heir of the Quinton family.Seeing the sudden stares, Jonah quickly composed himself and wiped the shock off his face."Ten million dollars. It's not that bad," he said in a low tone. Meanwhile, he was pondering how huge that was.He never expected the membership card to be so costly. He wondered if the membership card was worth ten million dollars, how much the meals would cost then.The young heir had just scammed the Santos family out of over a hundred million dollars. But that doesn't mean he should spend it all recklessly.Mismanagement of funds was what put the Quinton Pharmaceutical company in the mess it's in today. Th

In a moment, they arrived at the top floor of the hotel and exited the elevator with joy on their faces.Stepping out, they all paused as their eyes took in the beautiful reception of the floor.They were all amazed by the stunning view before them.The reception looked calm and quiet, with a very nice and lovely ambiance. The walls were made of transparent glass, offering a view of almost half of Glacia City."Wow! This is so beautiful!" one of them commented as they gazed around the space in astonishment."I've never seen such a beautiful place in my life," Clara confessed, her jaw dropping.They were awestruck by the beauty before their eyes. It felt like entering an entirely new world, one beyond description.Seeing how nice the reception was made the Santos family wonder about the rest of the floor. There was no doubt it would be equally exhilarating.They were beaming with joy, eager to explore the space. This was a good life everyone would love to live.After a moment of admiri

Jonah's face instantly widened in shock, and he nearly peed himself upon hearing this from Roderick. He was utterly dumbfounded about how he could have learned such completely secret information.The truth was that the Quinton Pharmaceutical company had been struggling with many business problems for several months. However, they had tried their best to keep the issues from becoming public knowledge. It was a complete secret that not even Jonah's father knew about them.These troubles included, but were not limited to, financial crises, product complaints, and more.Ever since Jonah's father left the city for a business trip, Jonah had been in charge of their pharmaceutical business.After all, as the heir of the family, he was expected to steer the company toward glory.This would not only benefit him and his family but was also about securing the future for his children and continuing to build their reputation, just as his forefathers had done.The baton had now been passed to him,
Chapter 64
The War King was extremely surprised at how someone could be this stupid.Turning to look at the other members of the family, their facial expressions said no differently.This meant they all shared the same belief that Jonah was the one behind their partnership with the Bolton Group.Roderick shook his head slowly and muttered, "What a dumb family!"They were all aware that he was the one in charge of appointing Bolton Group's partnering company. How could they be so stupid as to believe Jonah was the one who made the partnership happen for them now?Earlier today, Paul Ashley called Roderick to ask about giving the privilege to Santos Corporation after their proposals met Bolton Group's objectives for the project, which was why he approved it.Who could have thought they would be this dumb to give the credit for the chance he gave them to someone else?The War King's mind had even dispelled this already, not until Clara mentioned it now.Roderick stared at Clara and asked, "How are
Chapter 63
Their eyes all turned in immediate disgust, staring at Roderick harshly. Clara's eyes burned with horror the more she stared at him. Among them all, she held the greatest hatred in her heart for the war king compared to the others.Roderick cursed his luck inwardly, as he had never expected to meet these fools here. His day had been quite stressful and draining. Encountering these troublesome people now would only add to his headache.Just then, Clara snorted and asked him angrily, "Huh, what have you come to do at the Eclipse Hotel, Roderick? A loser like you doesn't belong here. Don't you have any shame?""Whatever I have come to do at the hotel is none of your business, Mrs. Santos. Why don't you keep your eyes on your own affairs?" Roderick responded nonchalantly.Clara used to be someone he held in some honor in the past, but not anymore. She was more senseless than her daughter.It's not surprising that her daughter inherited some foolishness from her.At this moment, Clara near

Later in the evening, at the Eclipse Hotel, a BMW and an Audi A7 drove into the hotel parking lot, joining a row of exotic cars in the space.Just then, the doors of the Audi and BMW opened, and Jonah and the Santos family members stepped out.They were all dressed in nice attire and wore very happy expressions on their faces. This was a great outing for them.They immediately turned their gaze to the magnificent building before them and were all awestruck at the sight.It wasn't their first time seeing the gigantic building, but tonight, it looked more fascinating than ever before.Eclipse Hotel is a hot commodity in town. The management never stops working to keep it looking great.Not only did the building look elegant and breathtaking, but the environment was also beautiful and lovely. It was very much like one of the massive mansions of paradise.The building has over fifty-five floors, each nicely named. The floors were large enough that each had its own restaurant and other fac

"A two-times return investment?" the family all uttered in unison.They exchanged glances of confusion as they tried to understand what this could mean.Given the name, the investment seemed unbelievable to them all.However, they couldn't dismiss it right away. They didn't want to offend Jonah, who had introduced it to them."If I'm right, Mr. Quinton, this sounds more like a Ponzi scheme. Or would you mind elaborating more about it?" Felicia asked Jonah.The young heir smiled slightly. "I understand what you all must be thinking about this. But I would like to inform you that whatever negativity you may have thought, you are wrong."Deep sighs echoed in the dining room as they listened to him speak."This investment is solely created for those who understand and believe in the power of stock purchases. It’s one of the greatest means to multiply funds in a short period. And it has lasted for many years because it’s handled by great experts in the field."The more Jonah explained, the
