A Life Beyond Limits (Jack Holland) novel Chapter 838

Jack was wholly unconcerned with how the youngsters around him perceived him.

As he waited for Samuel to arrive, he noticed that many luxury cars stopped by the entrance of the clubhouse. Not only were these vehicles branded, such as Bentleys, Maybachs, Rolls-Royces, and more, but they also had eye-catching license plates.

If anyone took the time to look into these plates, they would no doubt discover that the owners were all reputable figures who commanded respect. These people were titans not only in Alnewgo's finance circle, but also in Chopington's economic circle, and they had all gathered here today in the tiny clubhouse.

Jack guessed that these were the upper-class businessmen that Samuel wanted to introduce to him. He lifted his hand and glanced at his wristwatch, wondering when Samuel would arrive.

At that moment, a few cars once again stopped at the entrance of the clubhouse. Among them was a Crimsontrail that attracted Jack's attention. A middle-aged man stepped out of the car before he led a few foreigners into the clubhouse.

The man spoke the foreign language fluently, and his group was surrounded by a score of bodyguards, all of whom had sharp gazes, behaving as if they were protecting the country's president.

Surprisingly, Jack recognized the middle-aged man and the foreigners. They were acquaintances of his. He didn't expect them to show their faces in Alnewgo.

However, Jack did not approach them to greet them. Instead he stuck close to the back of their group and entered the clubhouse with them.

The group of men ascended the staircase and entered the venue where the banquet was being held. Their appearance caused the guests who were already seated to let out gasps of surprise. No matter how much the men tried to keep a low profile, they were still instantly recognized.

William exclaimed, "Look! That's Louis Mackerson, the founder of the national bicycle-sharing system! His company is worth over 20 billion dollars! He's my idol. I can't believe that I get to see him in the flesh today!"

Ruth replied in a haughty tone, "See? I was right! I told you that famous people like to visit this clubhouse. Not only big shots in the business world, but also influential politicians would occasionally drop by to enjoy tea here."

Standing at the very center of the group were two men, the value of their companies exceeding hundreds of billions of dollars respectively. They were the big bosses of multinational enterprises.

One of them was Aiden Atkinson, the president of Atlas Corporation, a company that dealt in business-to-business endeavors. His company was worth over 130 billion dollars, making him one of the leaders in the group of already incredibly impressive businessmen.

When these people gathered together, it would always cause a stir, no matter if it was in Alnewgo's, Chopington's, or Iselva's finance industries. Their gathering was not something that could be overlooked by anyone.

So, the question was… why had so many leaders of the business world gathered together in the tiny clubhouse? A gathering of this scale would no doubt dominate the headlines of all the finance-related media outlets, and yet there wasn't a single reporter around to interview them.

Zeta, William, Ruth, and their group of friends suddenly felt as if they had no right to be as haughty as they were a few moments ago. They hailed from prestigious families themselves, but when compared to these business giants, they were leagues apart.
