The kindergarten that Deborah attended was semi-public and had very basic facilities. Many of the children who studied here are from the lowest backgrounds.
Therefore, top luxury cars like Rolls-Royce were out of reach in their eyes.
Everyone looked sideways, their eyes full of envy and yearning, and with the kind of caution from the bottom of society.
The car door opened, and a young woman in black professional attire stepped out.
After looking around, she walked straight in one direction.
The people around her dispersed and took the initiative to make way. In their eyes, making way for such a noble person seemed to be a natural thing.
After walking a few steps, the car key suddenly fell from her hand and fell to the ground.
The insurance man hurried up and picked up the car key. He bent down and handed the car key back to the woman as if he were holding a holy object.
Seeing the woman frowning slightly, the insurance man quickly grabbed the hem of his suit, wiped the car key, and handed it over again.
The woman then stretched out her hand to take the car key and nodded slightly as a token of gratitude.
The insurance man's face instantly relaxed, and his eyes were filled with a sparkle of excitement.
For him, this was already a great gift. He could brag about this for several years.
The woman continued to walk straight forward and came to Horacio and Deborah.
"Excuse me..."
As soon as the woman spoke, the insurance man hurriedly stepped forward and said with a flattering smile, "Hello, Miss, I'm quite familiar with this area. If you need anything, just give me instructions. These two are from the countryside. You don't need to talk to them."
He took it for granted that the woman wanted to ask for directions or inquire about something. How could he miss such an opportunity to talk to the top class?
But the woman didn't even look at him and continued to ask, "Are you Mr. Horacio Yoxall?"
Horacio nodded slightly, and a flash of excitement flashed in the woman's eyes. Just as she was about to say something, she accidentally glanced at the insurance man next to her from the corner of her eye.
Immediately, the woman's expression returned to calm, her eyes fell on Deborah, she smiled slightly and said, "Miss, I'm here to pick you up from school. Please get in the car."
After finishing speaking, she smiled at Horacio and said, "Mr. Yoxall, please."
Deborah timidly hid behind Horacio. Horacio stared at her for a few seconds, then took Deborah's hand and walked toward the car without saying a word.
The woman quickly followed and helped open the car door. After the two were seated, she helped close the car door, then walked around to the driver's seat and drove away in the car.
The insurance man looked blankly at the direction the vehicle was leaving as if he were under an immobilizing spell.
"Dad, I want to eat!" The naughty kid tugged on the insurance man's shirt.
Snapped!
The man in the suit reacted and slapped the little boy hard on the face. "Eat, eat, eat, eat your ass, now we are in big trouble!"
The naughty child burst into tears, not knowing why he was being beaten.
"Shut up! Don't cry!"
There were beads of sweat on the insurance man's forehead, and he yelled angrily, "When you go to school tomorrow, you go and apologize to Deborah. Even if she hits and scolds you, you are not allowed to talk back, let alone fight back. Understand?"
Deborah held Horacio's arm tightly, so nervous that she didn't even know where to put her feet.
She had never been in a car before.
In her impression, ladies who drove like this were very aggressive. Once, when she and her mother were crossing the road, they were almost hit by a car that ran a red light.
After the lady who drove the car got out of the car, she pointed at their noses and scolded them severely.
So from that time on, every time Deborah saw a lady driving a car, she would timidly stay away.
"Child, can you tell me what your name is?" the woman looked through the rearview mirror and saw the nervous Deborah, and asked with a smile.
Deborah timidly replied, "Madam, my name is Deborah Yoxall."
"Deborah... This is a very nice name."
The woman took a box of candies from the side and handed it to Deborah. "Deborah, do you like sweets? Let me treat you to some sweets."
Deborah's eyes brightened for a moment. She had never seen this kind of candy before, but she still swallowed and declined cautiously, "Thank you, Madam. I won't eat it..."
"If you want to eat, take it."
Horacio reached out to take the candy and handed it to Deborah.
Deborah happily accepted the candy, then took out a candy from her pocket. "Thank you, Madam. I also treat you to some candy."
"Thank you, Deborah. You're so good."
The woman smiled and took the candy from Deborah's hand, peeled off the wrapping paper, and stuffed the candy into her mouth. "This candy is so sweet. I like it."
Deborah's expression calmed down. "This is a reward from the kindergarten teacher for my good grade today."
"I still have one, but I have to take it back to my mother to eat. When I get a reward next time, I will definitely give the candy to you again."
"Really? Deborah is really great. Okay. Then I'll wait for your candy."
The woman was very good at chatting. Soon, she became familiar with Deborah.
Deborah also lost all her nervousness just now, started to talk more, and chatted non-stop with the woman.
Horacio sat beside her without saying a word but looked at the woman's profile and nodded slightly.
When the car arrived at the door of his home, Deborah warmly invited the woman to their home.
"Thank you, Deborah. But I have something to tell your father alone today. Deborah, please go back first, okay? When I'm free, I will come to your house to visit you." The woman smiled.
Deborah was stunned and then looked up at Horacio next to her.
Horacio smiled and said, "Hey, Deborah. She and I still have something to talk about. You go back first. I will be back soon."
Deborah stared at Horacio for a few seconds and turned to look at the lady in the front row. Subsequently, she snorted, opened the car door, and trotted toward her house.
"Why is Deborah suddenly angry?" The woman asked with some confusion.
Horacio asked calmly, "Who are you?"
The woman was stunned for a moment, and her expression suddenly changed wildly after she realized what she was doing.
She had fun chatting with Deborah just now, but she neglected the business.
"Hello, Mr. Yoxall. I am Nelly Larson, CEO of Golden Banner Bank. Now, I will officially transfer all the shares of Golden Banner Bank to your name," the woman said respectfully.
Horacio frowned slightly as if he didn't quite understand. "Do I have anything to do with Golden Banner Bank?"
The woman explained, "You were originally the founder and owner of Golden Banner Bank. I just took care of it for you. Now that you're back, it is natural to transfer the equity to you." Horacio looked a little confused.
Golden Banner Bank was one of the largest private banks in the world, with branches in almost every larger city in the world.
The head office was located in Junclein City in the Land of the Red Dragon, and there were countless branches in the Land of the Red Dragon. Its influence was definitely comparable to the four major banks in Land of the Red Dragon.
If overseas assets were included, the comprehensive strength would be even stronger than the four major banks.
At this time, Horacio suddenly glanced at the rearview mirror from the corner of his eye and understood instantly.
"Okay, I got it. You did a good job just now."
Horacio spoke calmly. He was referring to the woman's behavior toward Deborah at the school entrance and in the car.
These details might seem simple, but they showed that the woman had a very high IQ and EQ. She was skilled at evaluating situations and seizing opportunities, as well as at understanding the main points of things.
"Thank you, Mr. Yoxall!"
The woman was very excited to receive Horacio's praise, "Mr. Yoxall, I won't disturb you today. If you have time, please go to the office tomorrow morning to make some handovers."
"All right. I'll go over tomorrow if I'm free."
Horacio nodded, and the woman quickly got out of the car and opened the door for Horacio. She saw Horacio exit the car, then she got back to the driver's seat, said goodbye to Horacio, and drove away.
After the car drove away, Horacio took a deep breath and shouted, "Gavril, get the fuck out of here!"
Gavril walked out of the car next to him with a smile, scratched his head, and chuckled, "Boss, how do you know I'm here? I think I'm already very low-key?"
