Rose had also realized who the person was. The person was Jonathan Adams, one of the few rich families in the city, and a figure both her and Micheal respect so much.She quickly got up and walked to Jonathan with the hopes of making him notice her presence and acknowledge her beauty. A smile also appeared on her face. "Oh, Young Master Jonathan, long time no see. It's our honor to meet you in such a way. Please have a meal with us." Rose's polite attitude was as if she was groveling to please Jonathan, which was evident to the rest of them. Jonathan frowned when he saw the Adams siblings suddenly appear in front of him, and a touch of displeasure flashed across his face. Earlier, he had wanted to take Henry as his master, but he had been rejected. So when he heard that Henry was having a meal at the Apollon Hotel, he decided to met him there. Jonathan has been watching Henry's movements all this while. That was how he got the information that Henry was at the hotel..Otherwise, h
As for Micheal's company, if Micheal did not want to suffer a heavy blow, he definitely could not lose a big client like the Adams family! Offending someone in the Adams family would lead to something tragic for him and his pharmaceutical company.At the thought of this, Micheal took a deep breath. He could only suppress the anger in his heart as he slowly walked to Henry. Then, he gritted his teeth and spat out a few words to Henry, "I'm sorry, Henry!" When he said those words, he cursed Henry in his heart. If not for Jonathan, he wouldn't be apologizing to Henry who he saw as a scum.Rose's expression changed when she saw that her brother had apologized. She couldn't help the situation anymore. It was obvious she has to do the exact thing her brother did.Ultimately, she could only walk up to Henry and apologize with a face full of reluctance and humiliation. Henry looked at the two people in front of him who had apologized with great difficulty, but his expression did not chang
"What do you want?" Henry looked at Jonathan and asked. Jonathan quickly stood up and said with a polite smile, "Hello, Mr. Brown. I saw that you guys had not paid the bill yet, so I wanted to pay for your meal as a treat." When Henry heard this, he shook his head helplessly and said, "What do you seek from this? I've already said I don't intend to take in any more apprentices. I don't have the time to teach others right now." Upon hearing this, Jonathan waved his hand and said, "No, Mr. Brown, you've misunderstood. The reason I'm paying for your meal is not because I want you to take me in as your apprentice or to please you. It's just that I really admire you, and I feel that it's an honor to be able to pay for your meal." After a short pause, Jonathan continued, "Of course, if I can become your lackey, I will feel very honored." Henry frowned in confusion when he heard that. "A lackey?" Jonathan nodded seriously and said, "Henry, I want you to be my boss!" Henry glanced at Jo
Emily was unable to react in time. She was stunned, flustered at who called out her name so quick that made her panicked.In her eyes, the sharp spear was getting closer and closer to her with a moderate speed.Not far away, the owner of the spear, who was running towards Emily in a hurry, was also stunned. He did not expect this to happen! He just wanted to practice with the spear in his backyard. Suddenly, he felt as if a gust of wind had struck him, and he threw his spear to the side of the road. Coincidentally, someone just happened to pass by! At this moment, he saw Emily, standing in a daze, and the spear approaching her. The spear's owner felt a strong sense of despair. He wouldn't want his carelessness to cost someone their lives, or at most, injure them.Then, just as he felt that she would not be able to escape this time, he was stunned. He suddenly saw a figure appear beside Emily from the corner of his eye. Then, the figure suddenly grabbed her waist and carried her
"Emily, don't you think there's something strange about what happened today? Don't you have any unsual feeling at what just happened?" Henry's words were tactful. This was because whenever Henry mentioned the Silver necklace in the past, Emily had a big reaction and would angrily interrupt him every time. Therefore, Henry could only use a more tactful way to persuade Emily. Emily heard Henry's question and put down the glass. She closed her eyes and pinched her brows. After a while, she shook her head tiredly and said, "I don't know. It doesn't seem strange. The neighbor is called Thomas Ryan. I know him too. He's been living here for a few years. It's fine if you don't know him since you rarely go around the neighborhood. Stop acting like something is strange." Henry understood what was going on when he heard that. Emily had also just wondered whether Thomas had attempted to murder her. Which was not the case.But after thinking about it carefully, Emily came to the same conclus
Henry raised his brows, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly picked up the phone. After the call was connected, a low male voice came from the other end of the line. "You're Henry Brown, right?" The man's voice was cold, causing Henry to frown subconsciously. "Yes. Who are you?" Upon hearing Henry's acknowledgment, a sneer was heard on the other end of the line, and the voice became more ferocious. "Henry! You just beat me up two days ago and now you can't recognize my voice?" Henry immediately reacted when he heard that. The person on the other end of the line was Brad. Henry chuckled as he thought about it and said, "Mr. Brad, you're recovering well. Are you calling me to discuss the matter regarding the Shipping docks area?" Henry's extremely relaxed attitude was something that Brad had not expected. There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line, and then there was a rustling sound. Henry heard the phone being taken away. Soon, another
In a flash, the wines were unboxed for public sight."Teh, and I felt they were of a respectable caliber here." These appear to be simply lower-quality wines from Yan brewery, maybe only worth $500." Vanessa's expression was one of contempt."How could these be compared to the rare and excellent wine Darus Flameni?""Yan wines are no longer worth as much on the marketplace. Someone said, "We don't even give these to our servants!" Although the Yan wine wasn't all that bad, it was nothing in comparison to the Darus Flameni wine."What a shame!" Mrs. Millers mockingly said,"Considering their recent ascent in the nation, how come Yan wine is so inexpensive? Do you just like good wines that are produced abroad?" Henry answered nonchalantly."Considering that they just cost a few dollars, how is that not cheap? The price of Robert's wines exceeds one hundred million dollars," Vanessa rolled her eyes."Expensive wines don't always have to be good. Furthermore, you are unaware of the preci
“You must be kidding, right, Dad? This can’t be aged wine!” Vanessa‘ eyes were wide as dinner plates. “Look at how colorless it looks, though. It must be fake!” Mrs. Millers accused.“You guys must not have seen wines like this before. Aged Yan Wine gets this color, and it only loses its color the longer it’s been aging. I think this particular wine must have aged over two centuries. Every wine connoisseur knows this.”The looks on everyone’s faces quickly changed. Their accusations had just been dampened significantly, not by just anyone but by Mr. Millers himself, a well- known wine enthusiast. His judgment couldn’t be wrong. “I was blessed to be able to try such a fine wine years ago with a government official, but this Yan wine right here must be finer than the one I had that body and finish tell me it must’ve been aged for at least 200 years!” Mr. Millers smacked his lips, still enjoying the wine's aftertaste.“How much would it cost on the market?” Vanessa asked curiously.
