His Devious Rule-Chapter 330 Break The Hell Loose
"Hello everyone, I'm so grateful to welcome you all to the inauguration ceremony of Skylark. I feel privileged to open this event and stand here, addressing the many accomplished people who I admired while growing up." In complete composure, Ean gave the welcome speech without bothering to introduce himself as everything was behind him on the screen.
His eyes often brushed over the crowd in a relaxed manner. There was no nervousness in him. Rather he could see the impatience of the people to know who was above him, the one who is the owner of the Skylark.
"We are thrilled to see your response and enthusiasm for our event. Our first step towards fulfilling the desires, hopes, and dreams we all share." Whereas the deal breaker was Alvin's master strike on the Matthews Industries. Or else none of them would have bothered about Skylark.
Ean's father and brother looked at each other. They knew Ean was purposefully making the people impatient. On the second note, they were glad his name was disclosed now or else everyone would have bombarded the Watson family with numerous questions.
Ean's brother commented seeing his baby brother enjoying the limelight, "Dad, you did well by letting him go." He was proud of Ean.
When Alvin left the country, Ean had become a depressed being who had no interest in anything. As soon as Ean got a call from Alvin, he was thrilled to reach Alvin, having no idea about anything.
Ean's father didn't stop him when he saw Ean's eagerness to leave and do something with Alvin without their support. Honestly, he wanted Ean to work in their family company that was in the fashion industry. He never wished for Ean to work for or under somebody else. Oddly enough, he never sees Ean thrilled about anything but working with Alvin.
What could he do?
He let Ean enjoy his life by thinking of bringing him back before he turns thirty. Now, Ean is back in the country but father Watson doubted if Ean was going to work in their company after working as CEO of Skylark.
Father Watson was a proud father of his sons but the one he esteemed was Alvin. Ean had his family fall back. Whereas Alvin was struggling alone, trying to get far away from the clutches of the Matthews family.
Ean continued, "I know everyone is curious to see who caused the chaos in the Narnia business. Before that, let's welcome our prime investors of Skylark…"
Ean turned to the foreign investors and introduced each one. Most of them were clients of Alvin's antiques and artifacts. They believed in Alvin and Ean's business strategies and invested quite a large amount.
Many Narnia businessmen who had heard only the names of those foreign investors were shocked to know Skylark had such a deep connection and network. Forget the Matthews, they were eager to get close to Skylark and their big shot stakeholders.
Ean stopped irritating Casper and making the businessmen and women impatient. "I request Mr. Patterson to introduce the founder and the President of Skylark."
A hush fell in the hall. Joseph Patterson was a renowned investor. Getting a chance to meet him was a difficult task, much less invite him and ask him for the introduction speech.
A man in his forties left his champagne glass on the table and went to the stage. He had a mild smile but his catlike eyes were sharp and scrutinizing. After shaking Ean's hand, Patterson stood in front of the microphone and faced the crowd.
As if he could read the minds of people, "Let me clarify first. If you are thinking of the founder, the young man as my godson or something, you are wrong." Then he added humorously, "Now I regret why I didn't consider it."
The crowd chuckled as they had indeed got that thought. Anyway, they looked forward to finding out who this young man was.
Patterson continued ignoring Ean who was confused. He had given them the gist of what he might tell in his speech but he wasn't following it.
"When I met this handsome young man five years ago, he was alone in a foreign country. There was no one to support him, guide him, or encourage him. All he had was his determination, stubbornness, and a plan in his hand."
Ean opened his mouth and closed it. He hadn't expected Patterson to mention the beginning days of Alvin. Listening to him, Ean didn't want to stop him. Because Casper was a snake who would take credit for Alvin's hard work. So Patterson's words will make everyone know it was Alvin's empire that had nothing to do with the Matthews, other than his second name.
"Honestly, when I lent him a million, loving his project proposal, I expected nothing in return. What could a young man do in a foreign land? Right?"
Patterson looked at the faces who probably agreed with him. However, he continued, "Wrong. And he proved it in just three months, returning to me with ten times my investment. And… There is no turning back for him." He shrugged his hands in the air.
There was thunderous applause hearing the story. Now they were curious who was the gem in the business world who came to Narnia.
Whereas Benjamin wanted to flee from his table. Casper was seething but he was standing as if he heard nothing. He didn't know what was going on in Casper's mind.
Nevertheless, Harrison was well aware of what irked Casper. Casper was planning to stop whatever Alvin's plan was by taking the credit for Alvin's success. Patterson's words meant that Matthews didn't help Alvin and kind of abandoned him in the foreign country without even giving him a million.
After Alvin's introduction, people won't congratulate Casper, instead, they will look at him in contempt and laugh behind his back.
Patterson came to the point, "So when he met me this time, I knew my money would be safe and multiplied in his hands. So here I'm, thrilled to introduce him to you all."
He pointed at the doors in front of him at the far end. "Let's welcome the man with his dream, his lovely wife."
'Wife?' Hearing as a young man, they were expecting an unmarried, dashing man. Well, it didn't drop their eagerness to know about the man. They turned to the door which opened wide.
In the hall filled with dark-colored suites, the light brown suite was refreshing. What was more stimulating was the gorgeous man with the captivating young lady.
Their heights, their physiques, their demeanors, their style, everything completed one another. As if they were made upon order, they looked perfect, balancing each other.
Anya tried her best to look calm when she felt her cheeks hot hearing 'His dream, his wife.' Holding his left arm, she glanced at him who smirked meeting her eyes.
Anya faintly shook her head in resignation, "How could you be happy even after knowing I'm going to ruin your party?" She asked in a low voice and turned front.
Everyone's eyes were drilled through them. Whoever identified her husband was in disbelief. Women ogled her husband and judged her. Anya could care less. f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎
Her eyes fell on the blonde man who was in front of the microphone. Her husband might not be his godson, but a million he gave to Alvin meant a lot to Alvin.
Alvin smirked, hearing Anya and looking at her confidence. Happy was a small word. Anya had no idea she was going to turn the Matthews family upside down. So Alvin was looking forward to the evening party she was going to light the fire.
Now it's the wife's turn to break the hell loose.
