Wilson was so frightened that the wine in his glass spilled out.
"Mr. Yoxall, I'm sorry. I did not know who you were. Please forgive me!"
At this time, Wilson's face was pale and there were beads of cold sweat on his forehead.
In the beginning, he also knew that he was the president of Golden Banner Bank, and he was also a very remarkable person.
But relying on his relationship with the War Department, although his words were polite, he always revealed a condescending attitude towards him.
Only now did he know that the young man in front of him was not just the president of Golden Banner Bank!
The top commanders of the three battle groups in Junclein City dispatched together, treated him respectfully, and used the highest standards of etiquette of the war department!
Although he didn't know the background of this young man at this time, based on the scene just now, he was a super big shot that even hundreds of people tied together could not afford to offend!
Horacio looked at Wilson's panicked look and smiled lightly, "It seems that you are right to leave the war department. With your courage, how can you go into battle to kill the enemy?"
"Mr. Yoxall, please forgive me. I deserve to die. I just..."
"Okay!"
Horacio raised his hand slightly. "I don't like eating with unfamiliar people."
Wilson was stunned and said quickly, "I'm leaving now, right away!"
After saying that, he almost stumbled out of the private room.
The atmosphere in the private room was terrifyingly solemn.
Burchard and Zenon were so nervous that their teeth were chattering.
At the same time, they secretly felt lucky just now. Fortunately, they didn't follow Wilson to make noise. Otherwise, it would be over now!
They never expected that in addition to being the president, this young man also had a more terrifying background!
Sharon was so nervous that cold sweat broke out on her palms, and she was so stunned that she didn't know what to do.
"You just said you were allergic to alcohol?"
Horacio suddenly spoke calmly.
Sharon trembled with fright, quickly poured a glass of red wine, and drank it down.
Seeing that Horacio didn't respond, she continued to pour wine into the glass.
She might be allergic to alcohol. After two glasses of wine, her face began to turn red, and her lips began to tremble slightly.
However, she didn't dare to stop at all. She suppressed the turmoil in her stomach and continued to pour one glass of wine into her stomach.
After drinking about seven or eight glasses, Horacio gently pressed down her glass.
"I was very grateful for the divine feather necklace you gave me at the wedding last time. You are a very smart woman, but sometimes being too smart can only harm yourself. Please take care of yourself in the future."
Horacio looked at Sharon and smiled playfully, then stood up and walked toward the door of the private room without looking back.
After several minutes, Sharon's legs were paralyzed. Whether it was from fear or alcohol allergy, she suddenly fell to the side.
"Oh, Ms. Carson, Ms. Carson, you are overconfident!"
Burchard and Zenon, who were next to her, quickly helped her up, sighed, and dialed the ambulance in time.
After Horacio left the restaurant, he didn't pay much attention to what happened just now. Such a trivial matter was not worth worrying about.
This was a small punishment for Sharon, but Horacio actually always thought that she was too smart.
At his wedding, Sharon apparently just gave him a necklace, but in fact, she had a lot of thoughts hidden behind it.
When Burchard and Zenon were busy, she disappeared without a trace, and then appeared again at the most critical moment, adding a magical touch.
She probably did this intentionally to leave a very special impression on Horacio.
So behind this incident, Sharon must have carefully planned and thought.
Her real purpose in the dinner just now was to show her strength in front of Horacio, to increase her bargaining chips when dealing with Horacio in the future.
Even Horacio admired her thoughtfulness.
But unfortunately, she kicked the steel plate this time. In the face of absolute strength, no matter how smart the mind was, it was just a little cleverness.
As for the small red box sent by Janko and others, inside was a letter of appointment for the title of general-in-chief with the official seal of the Supreme Command Center, Land of the Red Dragon.
Horacio casually crumpled the letter of appointment into a ball and stuffed it into his pocket, then threw the red sandalwood box inlaid with gold wire into the trash can nearby.
He wondered how the brains of these people had grown. It was just a thin piece of paper. Why should it be placed in such a big box?
Then, Horacio took a taxi to Sunset View Villa.
This was one of the three largest luxury villa groups in Junclein. After returning for so long, he couldn't let his wife and daughter live in that shabby private house all the time.
"Hello sir, may I help you?"
As soon as he walked into the splendidly decorated sales hall, a sweet-looking real estate agent came forward with a smile.
Horacio walked directly to the model sand table and looked at the models on it to select.
The beautiful real estate consultant next to him smiled and introduced, "Sir, our villas here are divided into three levels: area A, area b, and area c. May I ask what your general intention is? I can help you as a consultant."
Horacio walked around the sand table and asked, "Is there one that has been renovated, and we can move in directly?"
"Yes, the villas in Area C are all directly renovated, and you can move in at any time."
The beautiful saleswoman pointed to the villa group at the bottom of the sand table and replied.
Horacio shook his head slightly, feeling dissatisfied with the villa complex, and said, "This is at the foot of the mountain. The view is not good. Is there nothing else?"
At this time, an old salesman with heavy makeup happened to pass by. Probably she was menopausal or too idle. She interjected, “If you want a good view, buy a landmark villa on the top of the mountain. One hundred million. The view is particularly good.”
Horacio's eyes fell on the villa on the top of the mountain and asked, "Is this renovated?"
The old saleswoman sneered. "Renovation has not been completed, but you can buy a landmark villa, but you still lack the money for renovation?"
"Rachel, why don't you take this guest to sit on the sofa? There are free fruits and snacks there. Introduce the situation here to the guest first."
The meaning of these words was very obvious. It reminded the beautiful salesperson that he was not here to buy a villa at all, or he did not understand the market and did not know the prices here.
Or he simply came over and grabbed some free fruit while pretending to be rich.
They encountered many customers like this every day.
Although the company had regulations, as long as anyone walked through the door, no matter how high or low they were, they must be treated equally.
But as a salesperson, she didn't want to waste time on people who didn’t have purchasing power.
Without a doubt, Horacio could hear the meaning of these words, but he didn't care and continued to ask, "What about halfway up the mountain? Are there any villas with complete renovation?"
"That's really such a villa!"
The old saleswoman pointed to a villa halfway up the mountain and slightly closer to the top of the mountain, and said, "This is a single-family villa. It has been renovated to the highest standards. It is just what you want. The price is also affordable, only 5 million. It contains all the furniture and electrical appliances, and they are all the best brands.”
After speaking, she gave Horacio a playful smile and said, "Sir, would you like to swipe your card or transfer money?"
Although the saleswoman said this with a smile, her eyes were very clear. Weren't you trying to show off? This was the right one for you. How did you get off the stage?
"Well, this villa is nice!"
Unexpectedly, Horacio nodded with satisfaction.
Before the old saleswoman could be surprised, she heard Horacio add, "It's just that this is too close to the villa on the top of the mountain. Living here feels like being overlooked by others. I don't like this feeling."
The old saleswoman almost couldn't hold back and squirted out on the spot, thinking that he was showing off so well.
He had no money. Why did he get so many excuses?
The beautiful saleswoman looked a little embarrassed next to him. Although she didn't think this was a customer with purchasing power, she didn't want to make the customer embarrassed.
"Yes!"
At this moment, Horacio suddenly took out his bank card and pointed at the villa halfway up the mountain. "I want this kind of villa, swipe my card!"
The old saleswoman was stunned, and the beautiful salesperson was also a little surprised.
Was he really here to buy a villa?
However, before they could react, Horacio added, "I also bought the villa on the top of the mountain. In this way, no one will live in that villa. It's the best of both worlds!"
