Everyone looked at each other in speechless when they noticed Kingston's sudden outburst. They all saw the ridicule in each other's eyes.
What Kingston just said could not be trusted. Everyone in the circle knows that he failed to use his daughter to curry favor with Kaiden not long ago, and he was humiliated by Kaiden in person!
Kaiden had a weird temper, but he was a rare talent in the industry. Even the British royal family had invited him to design a private garden.
Since then, Kaiden's reputation raised tremendously!
Later, the price of each and every buildings and interior designs that was sketched by him skyrocketed.
Kaiden was talented but he was also willful.
He had always like to have short term job rather than a permanent job. Sometimes, he would leave half way for a project when he lost his temper. Even if the partners sue him to court, he could easily pay the compensation.
Amelia did not know how lucky she was to sit with
Kaiden. Instead, she glanced at him with disgust. "Why is it you!"
"Why it can't be me?" Kaiden laughed. His face was so handsome with fair skin and red lips, which he could outstand any other young lads.
Amelia pointed at the name card at the back of the chair and said, "It's not your name at all!"
Then, the real owner appeared.
He stared at the back of Kaiden's head and said with some displeasure, "Sir, can you please go back to your seat?"
Amelia secretly displayed a happy look to Kaiden, implying that the owner was coming.
Kaiden looked back slowly and said, "Mr. Woods, I want to sit here today. Well, my seat is arranged at the middle of the hall. It's next to Zheng Yiqiang. You can sit next to him."
Mr. Woods was over surprised with the sudden lucky he got! He immediately said 'thank you' to Kaiden and walked to the direction of Kingston.
Amelia was stunned by what she saw.
Kaiden looked at her and said in a domineering tone, "Now, the seat is mine!"
Amelia looked at him incredulously. "Why are you qualified to sit in the middle?"
"Don't be unconvinced." Kaiden laughed and showed his white teeth. "My personal value now is much more valuable than your entire company's. Do you believe it?"
A strong displeasure flashed across Amelia's beautiful eyes. "I don't believe it! Although you have your talents, you can't compare with Apex Construction Corporation at all!"
Jonathan just recovered from his shock and asked Amelia carefully, "President Ramsay, did you know Mr. Wright?"
"I don't know him!" Amelia quickly turned her face. It was obvious that Kaiden's words had offended her.
When Kaiden looked at Jonathan's curious eyes, a faint friendly expression appeared on his handsome face.
He stretched his hand to Jonathan and said, "Hi, President Ramsay and I have just known each other not long ago but we are like close friends now. I was thinking of using the government's bid event to cooperate well with Apex Construction Corporation."
When Jonathan heard the word 'cooperate', he was overjoyed.
Apart from his gender and age, the information were basically his work resume.
Amelia scrolled through it and her eyes were getting bigger especially when she saw the photo of Kaiden and British royal family. She felt chills in her spine.
She finally knew the reason why Jonathan treated him like a treasure when he saw him. It turned out that Kaiden was a genius in construction.
After returning to Jonathan's side, Amelia strangely kept silent and she just let Jonathan and Kaiden talk to each other.
The more she listened to the conversation, the more frightened she became. Especially when she heard that the Apex Construction Corporation should have cooperated with Kaiden a few months ago, she could not help but scream at Kaiden, "You mean, Daniel did find you to enquire about the tourist development project?"
The corners of Kaiden's lips became wider. He knew that Amelia was interested in this topic, or else he would not have mentioned it!
Kaiden tighten his lips and put on a serious face, "Yes, Daniel invited me to design the interior design for him. The price he offered me was quite reasonable as well. However, when I went to the construction site and took a look myself. I found that he used cheap materials which saved him a lot of money. At that time, I thought that the project was not very reliable, so I refused to sign the cooperation contract with him."
Amelia gritted her teeth and said, "You found out about it?"
"Yes. In fact, who doesn't know..." Kaiden said meaningfully.
Amelia's pupils trembled. Kaiden's words conveyed a message that everyone in the industry were waiting to see how was Apex Construction Corporation going to be destroyed.
Jonathan who was aside blamed himself. "Actually, I was responsible for this matter as well. Back then, your father was seriously ill and had been hospitalized. I was powerless. Daniel was in cahoots with Kaleb and the others, which result in the accident. I've asked myself many times before. If I had insisted a little earlier, would we end up in the current situation?"
Amelia's face turned cold and she thought that it was all Daniel's fault!
