Chapter 726 Governor’s Son

A group of good–looking young men, probably around fifteen of them, came in.

They were followed by another group of people who were either bodyguards, assistants, or businessmen

with briefcases.

“Who is Winston Carter? We are here to purchase Golden Edge!”

The leader of the group scanned everyone in the meeting room condescendingly. His words screamed of confidence and arrogance.

Winston was surprised. Based on their looks, he knew the young men were people with a strong background.

He went up to them and asked politely, “I’m Winston Carter. Who might you be?”

“Harry Lokeman from the Lokeman family from Takeno City,” the young man said.

Everyone in the meeting room was surprised by his introduction.

Takeno was just south of Lilyrose and both cities were interconnected, so everyone in the room had

heard of the Lokeman family.

The Takeno Lokemans were wealthy and powerful.

They had a long history and a resourceful network, rivaling that of the Chrysant Vinlands.

Had the Lokemans been eyeing Golden Edge?

Winston wore an apologetic look and said politely, “Young Master Harry, I am terribly sorry but Shangrila

Group has decided to purchase Golden Edge. Ms. Winnie Souffle is signing a contract with us.”

Harry looked at Winnie.

“Mr. Lokeman, Shangrila Group is interested in acquiring Golden Edge,” Winnie said politely.

“Signing a contract? Means it’s not a done deal yet?”

Harry looked at Winston, completely ignoring Winnie.

The young master from the wealthy family had a fierce aura. Even when he kept quiet, his presence

would pressure others in the same room.

It reminded Winston of Kaze.

Winston bit the bullet and said, “Young Master Harry, I’m afraid…”

“Enough. It seems like the Lokemans aren’t influential enough.”

Harry stopped Winston abruptly with a frosty grunt and said, “I am not buying alone, we are.”

“Who might they be?”

Winston looked at the other young men behind Harry.

“Hank Duncan of the Duncan family from Sunrise City.”

A tall young man who looked rather buff stepped up and introduced himself.

Everyone in the room was surprised again.

The Duncans were also a reputable and wealthy family from the capital.

Then, the other young men introduced themselves.

“Lambert Webber of the Webber family from Florence City.”

“Young Howlett of the Howlett family from Sunrise City.”

“Micheal Greenleaf, CFO of Maple Corporation.”

As all the young men introduced themselves, the meeting room was completely silenced.

The young men were either from wealthy and reputable families or business elites who possessed the NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

same amount of influence.

All of them would have a spot in the 30 under 30s ranking of the famous magazine.

“Zephyr Farland.”

The last young man simply said his name without telling where he was from and then kept quiet.

Everyone assumed he was the most common of them all and was embarrassed to reveal his

background.

Suddenly, one of the followers cleared his throat and said, “Young Master Zephyr is the son of the

governor!”

Everyone in the meeting room was shocked.

How many governors were there in the entire South River State?

There was only one and he was also one of the most powerful regional commanders–Governor Loid

Farland!

His son, Zephyr, came as well.

Being the son of the governor, Zephyr’s status was naturally higher than the others.

“Shh!”

Zephyr hushed at his follower.

His follower shuddered and looked down in silence.

Harry then said, “Winston Carter, we are all here to purchase Golden Edge. Are you selling it to us?”

Winston was sweating nervously.

He looked at the young men and they looked back at him.

Some were talking on the phone and some were looking elsewhere, yet Winston felt unprecedentedly pressured.

Winnie disliked people who took advantage of their status and privileges to oppress others.

She went up and said politely, “Mr. Lokeman, Mr. Carter and Shangrila Group are signing the contract already. You are one step too late…”
