Just as he was about to teach this brat a lesson, Lil Michael tugged Joyce’s arm.
“Pretty Lady, my daddy is asking us to go over. Let’s go take a look!” Lil Michael spoke excitedly because he wanted to keep Joyce away from the “Old Mister”.
Joyce looked to the side and saw Clayton give her a nod, signaling her to go over. Lil Michael pulled Joyce over. Opposite Clayton was the butler who wanted to prevent her from entering, and the Jenner father and son.
When the butler saw Joyce, his face was a bit complicated, while the Jenners had a smug look in their eyes. “Ms. Powell, you know these two people?” Clayton pointed at the Jenners.
Joyce smiled and raised her glass. “Of course. Mr. Jenner is a shareholder of Powell Corporation, and this is his only son, Xion.” The butler hurriedly spoke.
“The identity of these two people isn’t fake. Ms. Powell has also personally confirmed it. Mr. Sloan, Powell Corporation met all our requirements for this cooperation, so you can consider them.”
Clayton was unmoved after he heard this, but his eyes darkened slightly. Joyce raised her eyebrows and did not speak Christian Jenner spoke. “Mr. Sloan, we are very sincere about this cooperation. If you can sign with us, all conditions are negotiable.”
Clayton exuded a chilly vibe that was very imposing He paused for a moment and looked at the butler. Clayton asked calmly, “What’s your relationship with them?” The butler froze.
Christian Jenner hurriedly explained, “Although we’re not related by blood, we’re practically brothers. It’s all thanks to his help that we’re able to have the honor of meeting we te are to rave me Treanor or meeting you, Mr. Sloan.”
Clayton was silent for a few seconds. His clear and cold gaze swept over the butler’s face. “You should know my rules. Take them away.” The butler looked a little hesitant.
“Mr. Sloan, you can really consider Powell Corporation…” “I will consider Powell Corporation, but not through these two nobodies.
Also, I don’t need a butler-like you to teach me to do things.” Clayton’s eyes were calm and emotionless without the slightest temperature.
For a moment, the atmosphere was stagnant. The mingling scene not far away felt like it was separated by a barrier. Clayton Sloan’s disgust was undisguised.
Whether it was a butler who had been with him for ten years, someone would have to pay for breaking his rules. His words were direct.
No matter who Clayton chose to work with, Christian Jenner was far from being qualified. Christian’s face changed a few times. He looked at the butler pleadingly.
“Big Brother…” The butler frowned and still tried to get another chance for Christian. It made no sense that Joyce’s sudden appearance robbed his brother of this chance.
“Mr. Sloan… Can you please reconsider?” “My daddy has made it very clear! Are you old and confused? Daddy won’t make friends with douchebags! Daddy likes my pretty lady…”
Lil Michael could not help but frown. His features on that pretty little face were scrunched up together.
This butler is really annoying as always! Usually, the butler told Michael what to d o with his life and schoolwork and drove away his favorite teachers and buddies.
He would even preach some self-righteous logic.
Now, the butler wanted to bring these two douchebags to bully Pretty Lady? Lil Michael still remembered that these two douchebags spoke ill of Pretty Lady at the lobby of Powell Corporation.
‘I won’t forget this!’ At the thought of this, Michael turned over and pulled on his father’s sleeve. He tugged on it while grumbling in anger.
“The butler is so annoying! He bullied Pretty Lady at the entrance… He called her a rando and didn’t let her in. He’s so rude!” Clayton’s expression turned gloomy and cold.
His hawk-like eyes were sharp as he looked at the butler. Manners was the basic quality Clayton required of his subordinates. The butler quivered.
“No… I didn’t. Young Master, you can’t talk nonsense!” “Why would I need to falsely accuse you?” Lil Michael snorted to show his anger and puffed up like a little pufferfish. The butler could feel the cold vibes from Clayton’s body and dared not even look him straight in the eyes.
He began to regret that he had brought Christian over. The butler thought that he had been by Clayton’s side for so many years, so Clayton relied on him and would think about his suggestions.
However, at this moment, he felt a bone-chilling cold that he could not help but shiver. He had forgotten that he was merely a butler.
No matter how honorable and admirable outsiders thought it was to be Clayton Sloan’s butler, to Clayton, he was nothing Sloan’s butler, to clon, he was nothing more than a subordinate.
The butler shivered and explained, “Mr. Sloan, I really didn’t mean it. I just saw that the gown on Ms. Powell was Madam’s dress. I was anxious and…” Clayton’s gaze stabbed him. A certain word had touched his taboo. For a moment, even Lil Michael kept quiet and looked at Clayton with a clear gaze.
In the next second, Clayton beckoned for the bodyguards in the shadows. He ordered, “Throw them out.” Clayton looked at the pale-faced butler without a trace of emotion.
“From today onwards, you won’t have anything to do with the Sloan family. Since you broke my rules, you’d better get the hell out of here before I decide to pursue this.”
The butler was so scared that the blood drained from his face. Before he could speak, the bodyguards next to him had already stepped forward.
One of them covered his mouth, while the other speak, the bodyguards next to him had already stepped forward. One of them covered his mouth, while the other dragged him out.
The remaining people, Christian and Xion Jenner, were also driven out separately. Clayton was silent for a few seconds. His gloomy face gradually eased.
When he turned around and looked back at Joyce, h e smiled. “Apologies, Ms. Powell. I shouldn’t have let you hear all this.” Joyce smiled and expressed her understanding. “It’s alright, but is this dress…”
Listening to the conversation earlier, the dress Joyce was wearing seemed to have something to do with Lil Michael’s mommy Joyce glanced at Lil Michael, who blinked his big sparkling eyes and immediately shook his head It’s not!” Clayton Sloan paused for a moment.
His expression eased as he said, “It’s not. It’s just from the same designer, so the style and color are somewhat similar. Let’s head back.” Joyce did not probe further and followed Clayton back to the table.
Lil Michael was taken outside while the adults stayed in the banquet hall. Tristan Beckett had been sitting in his seat, His eyes were staring at the trio unblinkingly the whole time.
The people around came to talk to him, but he ignored them. The main seat was occupied by Clayton who had a mysteriously powerful aura who had a Mysterio, a powerful aura very similar to the strong and cold Tristan Beckett in some ways.
The three people next to Tristan saw Clayton and hurriedly went back to their seats. Although this was a private dinner, its nature was more similar to a meeting.
It was a gathering of people in high positions discussing interests and benefits. Everyone wanted to cooperate with Clayton Sloan, but they also knew that none of them could compete with Beckett Corporation.
When Joyce arrived earlier, they had even less hope to land this deal. Joyce sat on Tristan’s left side. The air was momentarily stagnant.
Clayton paused for a moment. His voice was rich and gentle as if the disturbance earlier had not happened. “Today’s dinner is to get to know all of you.
After all, you’re all important people in the industry, and I’ll need your help to develop my business in Mediania. Secondly, I also have a project that needs partners.” partners.”
Clayton was straightforward. In fact, everyone here came for that project. Clayton’s eyes swept over the people present.
Finally, his gaze settled on Joyce. “Ms. Powell, I wasn’t aware that you’re interested in this project?” Joyce was a little stunned, but her posture was elegant and composed.
“Powell Corporation has already made sufficient preparations for this project.” Clayton nodded. His posture was gentle and humble.
“I didn’t know about it beforehand, but since I’m aware now, I certainly can’t let your preparations go to waste.” With a single sentence, the expressions of the people present suddenly changed.
Even Joyce was slightly surprised. She understood the underlying meaning of Clayton’s words, but it was unbelievable that she got this project so easily, Tristan’s gaze was slightly condensed.
His thin lips were pressed into a straight line, and his powerful aura made the and his powerful au nade the surrounding temperature drop a few degrees.
Tristan saved Joyce’s life. He’s done so much for her more than what she’s ever done for him and yet you’re still favouring her as a character. I can’t believe it. I’m starting to get annoyed with this book. .
