Inheritance of Two Trillion Chapter 2689 - 1928: Let’s Call It Here
Previously on Inheritance of Two Trillion...
The hotel’s general manager personally led the way, bringing some people directly towards Bai Xiaosheng and his group. Among those following behind, leading the way were an elderly man and a young man.
The elderly man looked about sixty, was Caucasian, with hair and beard partially grey, dressed like a gentleman, robust and strong, even walking with a swift and powerful stride.
The young man appeared to be younger than Bai Xiaosheng, also Caucasian, handsome enough to be mistaken for a movie star, his eyebrows inadvertently revealing the pride only found in elite families.
Bai Xiaosheng and his companions observed the others, but didn’t feel anything particular.
However, Lorna was clearly nervous, tightly clutching the hem of her clothes, murmuring to herself, "They’ve arrived!"
In truth, Lorna was quite tense at the moment, yet hopeful with anticipation.
She was eager to find out what was truly going on, whether the Maiyous Family really had her relatives.
After all, when her mother was alive, she never mentioned having any other relatives.
Rumor had it that the Maiyous Family was a prestigious family, unlikely to wrongly recognize her as kin...
As someone who was displaced at a young age with a kind and gentle nature, family ties were more precious to Lorna than any gold and silver treasures in the world.
She longed for family bonds, thus her restless mind.
Seeing the others approach, out of courtesy, Bai Xiaosheng and his companions stood up to greet them.
The hotel manager saw this scene, appeared flustered, wanted to make a gesture, but Bai Xiaosheng signaled him to stop, hesitated before withdrawing.
The elderly man and young man behind looked directly at Lorna upon arriving, then began to examine her further.
This made Lorna increasingly anxious.
The reason they identified Lorna as the one to meet was not difficult. Among Bai Xiaosheng’s group, three were Asian with yellow skin, only Lorna was mixed-race, making the target easy to determine.
"Mr. Bai, your guests have arrived," the hotel manager respectfully said to Bai Xiaosheng.
"You can go now, don’t let anyone disturb us," Bai Xiaosheng said softly to him.
The hotel manager heard, slightly bowed, then nodded to the elderly man and young man, before retreating.
"You two must be from the Maiyous Family, we’ve been waiting a long time here on behalf of the Anlos Family," Bai Xiaosheng proactively smiled at the elderly man and young man.
The young man glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, politely nodded.
The elderly man raised his gloved hand, signaling the people behind to retreat far, to avoid disturbing this side.
Once the attendants retreated, he smiled slightly at Bai Xiaosheng, introduced, "Mr. Anlos appointed three...Chinese to meet with us, very considerate, preventing this matter from being too conspicuous, thoughtful indeed."
Bai Xiaosheng and his companions were stunned by these words.
It seemed the elderly man misunderstood.
However, they didn’t mind, today’s focus was on Lorna, solving her issues was the priority.
As for Bai Xiaosheng’s in-depth conversation with the Maiyous, it wasn’t urgent at this moment.
The elderly man continued, "I am a housekeeper of the Maiyous Family, named Levante. This gentleman—"
The elderly man pointed to the young man beside him, "is Mr. Jim."
Levante’s introduction stopped there, he only gave the young man’s name, sounding not like the true name.
Jim smiled and nodded to everyone, full of grace and polite.
Everyone nodded in return.
Levante finished speaking, directly looked at Lorna, straightforwardly said, "Presumably, this must be Miss Lorna!"
Lorna nodded repeatedly.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled, "Indeed, this is Miss Lorna. Should we all sit down and chat slowly?"
Levante smiled, ushering Jim, and Bai Xiaosheng with his group, including Lorna, to sit around the table together.
After seating, Levante looked at Bai Xiaosheng, seemingly confirming him as the leader of the conversation.
"This gentleman, Mr. Anlos entrusted such an important matter to you, I assume he trusts you immensely, may I know your name?" Levante asked politely.
"You may call me ’Bai,’" Bai Xiaosheng replied.
For foreigners, Huaxia names are always difficult to remember, better to remember a single character, easier to pronounce.
"Mr. Bai," Levante smiled and nodded, "It seems you are a trusted confidant of Mr. Anlos."
Such words implied Bai Xiaosheng could never be Anlos’s subordinate.
Lorna immediately wanted to correct.
Unfortunately, Levante didn’t even glance at her, continued speaking to Bai Xiaosheng, "I heard Mr. Anlos is busy with important affairs in Europe. I guess he already entrusted you to fully represent him, anything I say can be conveyed to you?"
Levante was clearly confirming Bai Xiaosheng’s authority.
Jim also focused on Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng nodded, said, "You may."
Lin Weiwei, Lei Ying couldn’t help but exchange a surprised look.
Except initially when Levante focused on Lorna, upon sitting down attention shifted to Bai Xiaosheng.
"Mr. Levante, what would you like to say?" Bai Xiaosheng asked.
Levante smiled openly, "I am merely a messenger, everything I say is meant from Mr. Maiyous."
"Mr. Maiyous believes, this matter is an opportunity, not between individuals, but between families, a chance bestowed upon both sides by destiny."
"We’ve heard the Anlos Family, Keruoge Company, and the Hogson Family in Oshan have gained unprecedented development opportunities, potentially influencing the business landscape in West Africa."
