Chapter 685
Chapter 685
After the Rolls-Royce pulled into the parking lot, it was closely followed by a yellow Ferrari, two BMWs, two Mercedes, and a black seven-seater Honda.
As soon as the car stopped, Wendell quickly exited the passenger seat and opened the door for Carlisle. Carlisle stepped out as Selena descended from the other side on her own.
Dressed in black suits and sunglasses, Francis and Wendell walked by Carlisle's side, scanning the surroundings. The sunglasses not only shielded their eyes but also concealed their expressions, adding an air of authority and helping them blend in with the occasion.
"Oh my gosh! The boss of Aurora Holdings looks so young!"
"Is he even legally an adult?"noveldrama
"He's so handsome! I've got to meet him later."
The young entrepreneurs buzzed with excitement.
Austin greeted them with a smile.
"Mr. Zahn."
"Mr. Gust."
Carlisle shook Austin's hand.
Noticing the two bodyguards behind Carlisle, Austin joked, "Your bodyguards seem to be sticking close by. Are you in some kind of trouble lately?"
"Yeah. Someone's been trying to kill me. I even wondered if you were so frustrated about not being able to acquire Alumni Network that you hired someone to take me out," Carlisle replied, grinning.
"Murder? Who in their right mind would hire killers these days?" Austin exclaimed, taken aback.
Although Austin didn't mind taking extreme measures to achieve his goals, he had never considered hiring someone to eliminate an opponent. After all, money might be able to compensate those he had wronged, but it could never bring someone back from the dead.
"Well, money is the root of all evil. With the right amount, people will always be willing to risk their lives for a job!" Carlisle responded, still smiling as he retracted his hand.
From Austin's reaction, Carlisle could tell that the former wasn't the one who hired the assassin.
"Why don't you head up to the third floor first, Mr. Zahn? I'm a bit tied up now, so I can't escort you personally," Austin said.
"Okay," Carlisle replied, leading his group toward Imperial Hotel.
Behind him, Gareth had brought Christine, Phoebe, Jenny, and Oscar along. His secretary accompanied Hank and Logan. Sean arrived with Lily and Isla, while Owen was with Laurel and Sunny. Ryan came with his secretary, Daniel, and two bodyguards for added security.
The banquet hall on the third floor was sparsely arranged and filled with over 30 round
tables. While this number might have seemed packed in an ordinary hotel, Imperial Hotel was the only five-star hotel in Riverland. Its expansive banquet hall spanned over 16,145 square feet.
The hall was luxuriously decorated, with stunning crystal chandeliers that sparkled brilliantly. Beautiful paintings adorned the walls, adding an extra touch of elegance. Hosting an event here truly made a statement of sophistication and grace.
The room greeted its guests with pleasant warmth with the heating set to a cozy 80.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
