Flynn was taken aback and put a piece of salmon sashimi into his mouth, then asked, “Just because you didn’t eat it, does that mean others can’t?”
Killian was choked with anger and turned to Rose, asking, “Ms. Sharp, did you not teach this person any manners?”
Rose shook her head. She had brought him here, but he was the main character. With his temper, who could stop him from doing what he wanted?
“Alright, the buffet is meant for eating. If the young man is hungry, let him be,” said Xue Chaozhou from Giant God Heavy Industries calmly. “Mr. Ramsey, don’t just stand there. Sit down! Leave the serving to the staff.”
Killian, seeing that Xue had spoken, dared not say anything further and gave Flynn a fierce glare.
Just as he was about to sit down, his eyes suddenly lit up and he dashed out of the pavilion.
“Oh! Miss Woods is here!”
He jogged over with a fawning smile on his face as he approached Layla.
“Mr. Ramsey,” Layla nodded slightly and said no more.
“I’ve long wanted to visit Niarak to meet Miss Woods, but company affairs have kept me busy,” Killian flattered her. “Meeting you today confirms that you are truly exceptional. Your presence alone makes me tremble with respect!”
He then turned to Lilia with a squinting smile and said, “Miss Hussain is also outstanding. When you stand next to Miss Woods, even the brightest stars pale in comparison.”
Lilia smiled slightly and said, “Mr. Ramsey flatters me. Laiya Cosmetics has recently gained quite a reputation. One of our new products has become a bestseller and many celebrities are using it.”
“Laiya Cosmetics made a net profit of three billion dollars from it, and our stock price has soared.”
Killian waved his hand and laughed heartily, “Mr. Hussain exaggerates. My business can’t compare to yours; it’s just small-scale.”
Then he turned to Braiden with a smile and said, “Speaking of bestsellers, Mr. Swanson’s Acebegron Clear Relief is the real deal. I heard it sold out as soon as it hit the market.”
“Mr. Swanson is my idol!”
Braiden’s lips curled into a slight smile as he looked at Killian and said, “Mr. Ramsey, we are old friends; there’s no need to flatter me so much!”
Though he said this modestly, he felt extremely proud inside.
Killian wasn’t wrong; Acebegron Clear Relief had indeed gained significant fame recently.
Companies placing orders with Swanson Pharmaceuticals were almost breaking down their doors.
Before coming here, he had signed over twenty contracts worth more than thirty billion dollars, bringing in a hundred billion in revenue for Swanson Pharmaceuticals.
As they say, good things come in pairs; Braiden was in high spirits.
“How can it be flattery when it’s true?” Killian laughed and said flatteringly, “With Acebegron Clear Relief’s success, Mr. Swanson will surely join Dragon Creek Society.”
“The alliance of our three companies will be stronger than ever. When you have good projects in the future, don’t forget about me!”
Rose heard this and shook her head with a bitter smile.
Killian was over fifty but still addressed Braiden as ‘brother.’ Truly adept at currying favor!
“Whether I can join Dragon Creek Society depends on the members’ votes; Mr. Ramsey shouldn’t joke about this!” Braiden quickly waved his hand and laughed.
Killian shrugged indifferently and said, “Although Mr. McGuire hasn’t voted yet, isn’t it already a done deal?”
“In every aspect, I can’t compare to you!”
Lilia smiled faintly and raised an eyebrow: “Mr. Ramsey, you’re not the only one competing for membership along with Mr. Swanson!”
She glanced at Rose sitting in the pavilion with a look of disdain on her face.
“Rose?” Killian’s smile froze as he snorted: “If I can’t get into Dragon Creek Society, she has no chance! A small-time boss like her dreaming of joining? Ridiculous!”
Braiden chuckled with a hint of mockery: “Mr. Ramsey, she’s not just any small-time boss.”
“She acquired five pharmaceutical companies with a total market value exceeding fifty billion dollars; she’s planning something big!”
“So what?” Killian snorted disdainfully: “No matter how big her company is if she doesn’t understand respect and hierarchy, she won’t last!”
Braiden was taken aback and frowned: “Is Ms. Sharp the reason for your anger?”
“It’s not just about offending me; if she disrespects others too, that’s unforgivable!” Killian glared at Flynn angrily and recounted what had happened earlier.
Layla looked towards the pavilion and squinted her eyes.
Flynn was sitting there eating without even looking up as if he were at home.
Rose sat in her chair casually chatting with Flynn.
Even I wouldn’t dare underestimate these members; how could you?
Ha-
They truly have no sense of hierarchy!
Not respecting the members is one thing; but not standing up when I arrive?
What use is maintaining such ridiculous stubbornness?
“A starving ghost reincarnated; no sense of decency! Rose’s reputation ruined by him!” Lilia sneered coldly before turning her gaze elsewhere as if looking at Flynn any longer would make her lose her appetite.
Braiden chuckled softly and shook his head: “Mr. Ramsey has assets worth hundreds of billions; why get angry over such trivial matters? It’s not worth it!”
He then introduced Flynn to everyone.
The more Killian listened, the angrier he became until finally shouting in fury: “I thought he was Rose’s business partner; turns out he’s just God of War’s puppet! Such a person doesn’t deserve to sit at our table!”
“This is an insult to us all!”
With that said, he decided to go argue with Flynn in the pavilion.
“Enough! This is Dragon Creek Society-not a marketplace! Mr. Ramsey wants to fight him?” Phillip walked over sternly followed by other members of Dragon Creek Society.
Everyone greeted Layla’s group warmly with smiles contrasting sharply against their attitude towards Rose.
“This must be Mr. Swanson-so young yet already leading like us old folks-truly impressive!”
“Mr. McGuire is right; I’ve known Mr. Swanson for years-like father like son-the Swanson Group will surely thrive under his leadership.”
“I heard Acebegron Clear Relief received excellent market feedback-three hundred thousand boxes sold out instantly-and Swanson Group’s stock price soared-I’m envious!”
Everyone praised Braiden enthusiastically sharing their views while Braiden humbly responded despite feeling immense joy inside:
“You all flatter me-I still have much to learn from each one here!”
“Hahaha… such awareness at such youth-excellent!” Phillip laughed heartily patting Braiden’s shoulder: “Once you officially become a member of Dragon Creek Society I’ll share some business insights helping you navigate challenges ahead!”
“I believe Swanson Group’s revenue will reach new heights soon enough!”
Braiden felt invigorated looking up at Phillip excitedly: “Mr. McGuire means…”
Phillip waved dismissively interrupting him: “We’ve already voted-once President Bobby arrives he’ll surely support you too!”
“Come-let’s eat while we chat!”
With that said Phillip patted Braiden’s shoulder heading towards the long table.
“Mr. Swanson joining Dragon Creek Society is well-deserved-all our relatives use Acebegron Clear Relief-it works great-you deserve this!”
Xue Chaozhou nodded approvingly towards Braiden who couldn’t help but smile widely realizing:
The families of these big shots were using Acebegron Clear Relief!
Doesn’t that prove its stellar reputation?
Haha-the Swanson Group hit gold this time!
Rose-I owe thanks to you too-for without your Dragon Bone Pill formula-the Swanson Group wouldn’t have achieved this success!
However little did Braiden know-
A catastrophe was quietly unfolding-and having surrendered his phone-he remained oblivious…
