Love At The Wrong Table

Stanley was as respectful and courteous as ever, but Emmanuel was a bit uncomfortable with this form of communication and said directly, "Old Mr. Silverbane, speak your mind. No need for pleasantries!"
Stanley nodded and went straight to the point, "Mr. Lowe, I wonder, is your goal
to help the Silverbane family win the Grand Martial Showdown or to let the Quillen family win?"
Ronnie and Angela looked at Emmanuel with curiosity rather than pressure. Seeing Emmanuel's displayed strength a few days ago, Ronnie no longer doubted Emmanuel's ability to win the championship. The question was, with his dual identity, which identity he would use to win?
Mackenzie also looked at Emmanuel without pressuring him. Of course, she wanted her family to win, but she was also afraid of attracting unwanted attention and suppression. The Quillen family was still establishing itself in Onza, and climbing too high too quickly might invite attacks from others.
"Old Mr. Silverbane, I'd like to know your thoughts first!" Emmanuel didn't directly answer, even though he had promised Santiago via video to help the Quillen family win the presidency of the Nuthana Chamber of Commerce. But who knew what Stanley was thinking?
Stanley glanced at Ronnie and Angela before sighing slightly. "We're all family here, so I won't beat around the bush. I'm old and can't keep going. Of course, I hope my family can take over my unfinished business, maintain the peace of the Chanaea Chamber of Commerce, and create a good business environment for Chanaea. But..."
At the "but," Ronnie lowered his head. Angela, on the other hand, remained calm, even more so than her father. Emmanuel continued to listen silently without interrupting.
"But my eldest son and his family have ill intentions. They only care about power and status. Recently, they've even been colluding with the Tanner family of Onza. If they get the presidency, the business world of Chanaea will undoubtedly be completely controlled by Teddy Tanner, with unimaginable consequences!"
Although Chanaea was vast and divided into five major business districts, Nuthana was the largest in terms of economic size among the five major chambers, even comparable to a country on its own in the world rankings, firmly in the top ten. That was why Teddy was desperate to control the Nuthana Chamber of Commerce, not giving up until the day he died.
Emmanuel continued to nod, wanting to hear more.
"As for my second son's family in Onza, they're still not as good as the Eshal Silverbanes in terms of business, connections, strength, or any other aspect. Even though I've focused on helping them develop over the past year, the gap is still very evident! Even if you help them win the championship, Mr. Lowe, and if I hand over the presidency to him, he might not sit securely in that position in the future. There might even be life-threatening dangers."
At this point, Mackenzie understood the purpose of Stanley's visit to Emmanuel.
Emmanuel was also somewhat surprised and said directly, "So, President Silverbane, you want me to help the Quillen family win the championship and then let them take over the presidency?!"
He had originally thought that Stanley had come that day specifically to ask him to help the Silverbane family of Onza win, but he had completely guessed wrong!

"That's right!" Stanley nodded,
sighing, "During my tenure as
president, I've received at least a hundred assassination attempts. The past year aldre was even more
outrageous, almost two to three
times a month. If I hadn't run into you last time, Mr. Lowe, I would've likely died! So, I thought that if the presidency is passed to Ronnie, it might be harmful to him, but it's different if it's handed over to the Quillen family!" Visit Novelxo.org to read the latest chapter of this novel
The elder was still very worried that Emmanuel and Mackenzie might misunderstand.

Without waiting for them to speak, he
quickly added, "Your strength is extraordinary, Mr. Lowe, and the m Quillen family also has a top-notch expert-Alfred. Whether Terence or Ms. Quillen becomes president, with experts like you protecting them, they will surely be safe!" Visit

Emmanuel and Mackenzie could
accept this reasoning. However,
Mackenzie was still apprehensivem frie not because she didn't trust
Emmanuel but because she was
pregnant and afraid of accidents
caused by one wrong move. So, she
was now hesitant to take on the presidency of the Chamber of
Commerce. Visit Novelxo.org to read the latest chapter of this novel
