Winston narrowed his sharp eyes slightly. He remained calm and glorious. His hands gripped Ezzo's tightly.
He held his own in all aspects.
"I know that you were disturbed by the previous incident at the horse racing arena, Mr. Ezzo. This daughter of mine is rather mad. She is still inexperienced. I hope for your understanding over her inappropriate ways," Winston said in a raspy voice.
He had a smile on his face as he spoke eloquently. He gave off the air of an aristocrat in every way.
The people were amazed.
They weren't dreaming, were they?
This was a nobleman from Mosgravia and the heir to the Royal Castle. This top-tier financial leader actually took the initiative to reach out to Winston in such a friendly manner, even though the Taylor family's riches were known to be unparalleled. However, this was only true in Belbanks.
The Beckett Group and the Schmidt Group were the top financial groups here at Solana City. How could Ezzo simply disregard them like that? Winston was so thick-skinned!
Then, Javier, Cornelius, and Victor also rushed over and stood by the side.
While they witnessed the scene in front of them, each of them had different expressions on their faces. They were each thinking of their own agenda.
The others' expressions were still pretty decent. It was only Javier who couldn't quite conceal his feelings. His jawline was so tense that it was as sharp as a blade.
Everyone in Solana City knew that Jesselton Incorporated's first business collaboration in the country was with the Beckett Group.
This was supposed to be when both corporations were working closely together. However, Ezzo's attitude toward Javier appeared to be cold.
On the contrary, he seemed to be closer to Winston, whom he wasn't partnering with.
This made Javier feel a little embarrassed. It was like a form of oppression.
"You're being too humble, Mr. Taylor," Ezzo chuckled.
He didn't hold back and continued to sing praises about Alyssa. "Your daughter is a rare gem. Not only does she have the looks, but her horsemanship is comparable to that of a jockey's. Among all the female riders in our country, her skills are top-notch.
If he had fallen for such a stunning and talented woman like Alyssa, he would have been heartbroken from worry.
"Glad to see you again, Ms. Taylor." Zeke reached out his hand to Alyssa gentlemanly while he stared at her with a burning gaze.
Jasper held his breath, his eyes red from fury.
Even though that was just a polite gesture, he knew that Zeke wasn't harboring good intentions!
Right when Jasper was about to rush forward, Landon held him back just in time.
"Hey, don't be impulsive. That blondie is just shaking hands with Alyssa. Are you going to let envy take over you already? You shouldn't lose your cool. If you do, it will only make you look petty.
"It's either that or it suggests you don't trust Lyse, and you're constantly concerned that she might be seduced by other men."
"That fellow has bad intentions."
