Chapter 1053 Modesty is the Best Policy
Atlas nodded slightly at the man with a cold expression.
His icy gaze swept over Hazelyn's face, leaving her somewhat trembling.
She stared at me. "You..."
Some people seemed to have understood the situation and approached us. Just then, Nick, accompanied by several city officials, walked through the crowd and said, "Mr. Atlas, great to see you here! We've been waiting for you."
After shaking hands with several important figures, Atlas calmly stated, "I had my wife come to Gerby for a survey first."
Whispers filled the crowd instantly.
"It's really Atlas from ATL Empire. Is he coming here to invest?"
Some voices criticized Hazelyn for her earlier arrogance.
"Oh my, just now, someone said they came looking so shabby. Haha. Saying that the world's largest financial group is shabby? She's just too arrogant and doesn't know her place."
"That's right. Other people are just low-key. Look at him, topping the wealth rankings, and he's not flaunting it."
Everyone turned disdainful glances toward Hazelyn.
The high-ranking officials hastily apologized, "Mr. Atlas, they're just ignorant. Please don't mind them."
Hazelyn paled upon hearing that. Beside her, Gabriel's face turned red, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
At that moment, several well-known businessmen gathered around, paying their respects to Atlas.
"Hello, Mr. Atlas. I'm Byron Chandler, and it's a pleasure to meet you."
I immediately looked over and saw a tall middle-aged man. At first glance, you could tell that he bore some resemblance to Beatrice.
However, behind his smiling face, his eyes seemed to hide a trace of darkness.
He walked up to Atlas with a full smile, extending his hand.
Atlas gave the man a cold and distant look, then said, "Mr. Byron, I just heard that you were considering acquiring Arkadia Plaza. Is that right?" Byron clicked his tongue twice, speechless.
"I wonder, Mr. Byron, which storeThis is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
you have you eyes on, or are you planning an overall acquisition? Under A
Empire, Arkadia Plaza is
only open in 22 domestic locations. When would you like to negotiate? I can consider selling them att over to you."
As Atlas spoke, he shocked everyone Many understood the concept, Even if it were just one of those 22 stores or even one in Foswood, it would likely be enough to buy the entire Gerby.
I couldn't help but smile at Hazelyn's terrible expression.
She looked at her father with a panicked expression and said, "I..."
Byron, frozen in place, looked at Hazelyn with sinister eyes.
Now, I noticed the intense hostility in Byron's eyes. He even exuded a hint of ruthlessness toward his daughter.
That must be why he could personally send his daughter to a psychiatric hospital.
His hand hung mid-air as Atlas showed no intention of shaking hands with him. Ultimately, he had no choice but to retract his hand awkwardly.
He looked at Atlas and said in a low voice, "My daughter is young and knows nothing. She's just spouting nonsense because of her admiration for you."
Gabriel hurriedly added, "Mr. Atlas, please forgive us. Hazel was just joking."
Atlas didn't even look at Gabriel and continued questioning Byron, "Mr. Byron, as far as I know, Sautoir Fine Jewelry under ATL Empire has not cooperated with anyone in Torado. Currently, it is available only in Arkadia Plaza.
"May I ask when Ms. Hazelyn began this collaboration with us? As for the latest release, only my wife has the right to choose them!"
Byron paused, seemingly not understanding Atlas's words. He stared blankly at Atlas towering above him. He suddenly seemed to comprehend something before looking at Hazelyn. Hazelyn gulped and questioned with doubt, "Sautoir Fine Jewelry is... yours?"
