Chapter 193 Sounds Too Good to be True
At the entrance of YJ Club, there were many luxury cars parked, and a lot of people had arrived.
The Watson family's ban didn't have much effect on these businessmen. They either directly ignored Rodrigo's ban or sent someone to attend the event, evading the rules and restrictions of the agreement.
In addition, William also noticed another phenomenon. Many of the businessmen attending the party this time had brought their younger generation, mostly girls, and they were all dressed exquisitely! Each dress was prettier than the last!
"So many people, even more than last time, and there are so many girls coming to a business party?" Michelle opened her mouth in disbelief, unable to understand why there were so many girls here.
Just with a quick glance, she could see at least a hundred beautiful waitresses.
"There are really a lot of beautiful girls this time." William sighed. He couldn't understand what these businessmen were thinking.
"Are those girls pretty?" Michelle saw that William kept looking at those beautiful girls not far away, and felt a slight trace of jealousy, especially because those girls were dressed provocatively.
"They're alright." William subconsciously nodded, then felt something was wrong and quickly corrected himself, "But none of them are as beautiful as my Michelle."
"That's more like it." Michelle said playfully and wrinkled her nose.
As they spoke, they tightly linked their arms together and walked towards the entrance of YJ Club.
William's heart was touched.
While the two of them were in an intimate conversation, a familiar voice came from behind.
"William, Michelle, what are you two doing here? It's so hot, aren't you sticking too close?"
Upon hearing the voice, William and Michelle both turned their heads almost simultaneously, only to see Elisa standing there with a smile, looking at the two of them. However, today; Elisa was dressed very sexy and seductively.
She wore a strapless pink dress, exposing her two fair lotus-like arms and tender shoulders. Hanging on her neck was a dazzling pearl necklace, the one that William bought at the charity auction for five million dollars and gave to Michelle, who then passed it on to Elisa.
She wore a pair of sexy high-heeled shoes in purple and pink, with exquisite makeup on her face. Coupled with her wavy hairstyle, she truly gave off a stunning feeling.
"Oh my goodness, Elisa, you look so beautiful ready to go on a blind date!" Michelle opened her mouth in a surprised expression. She had never seen Elisa dressed so provocatively before.
"Did you think I wanted to? My mom made me dress like this early in the morning! She even said it would attract Mr. Brown's attention." Elisa was a bit annoyed herself. After wearing this strapless dress, it was not easy to walk, and she almost tripped several times.
"I thought it was only my mom who forced me. It turns out your mom is the same." Michelle said with a smile.
"Not only us, look at those girls attending the party. Almost all of them are dressed up, like peacocks showing off their feathers." Elisa pouted, but she was still somewhat looking forward to Mr. Brown's presence.
It was an opportunity that could not be sought after, for a top-tier heir of a wealthy family to come to New York.
Elisa also had a glimmer of hope that she could have a love affair with this kind of top-tier wealthy heir. Just thinking about it made her feel wonderful. If she could marry into a top-tier wealthy family, she would practically wake up from a dream with a smile on her face.
"Michelle, you're dressed too casually today! But it's understandable, you already have William. Leave these wealthy heirs to me!" Elisa joked, also harboring some expectations deep down.
Although Michelle dressed casually today, her beauty surpassed all the other girls present!
"Let's go inside first, I have an invitation." William said, and he walked into the YJ Club ahead of them. This time, William had an invitation, so the three of them went in easily. Elisa chose to accompany Michelle and the others instead of walking with her parents.
It was still the same grand reception hall, but there were many more people here today compared to last time. Fortunately, Antony and the others arranged it properly. The reception hall was filled with various self-service delicacies, wines, and even dedicated servers to guide the guests.
By the time William and the others went in, there were already many people in the reception hall, with more than a thousand attendees.
The scene was indeed lively, with more people coming in. "William, let's grab something to eat first! I was in a rush and haven't had breakfast yet," Michelle said, pulling William to the buffet table to grab some snacks. Elisa couldn't resist the temptation of all the delicious treats and followed them. William had no choice but to go along since Antony had arranged everything for the party, and William's role was to make a grand entrance at the end.
As they were eating, a seductive and graceful beauty caught their attention. Holding a glass of red wine and stepping in golden high heels, she walked towards William. "William, what a coincidence to see you here," came Kayla's clear voice from behind him. William instinctively turned around and indeed saw the alluringly dressed Kayla.
"Kayla, isn't the Garcia family standing with the Watson family? Why are you attending Boss Jones' party?" William was surprised, but quickly understood that Kayla probably didn't have a choice now and had to stand by Antony's side.
'I'll support whichever side you're on,' Kayla added flirtatiously, with a hint of ambiguity in her tone. While speaking, she even threw a seductive glance at William. Normally, she wouldn't do such a thing because she knew it wouldn't work on him. But today was different. This glance wasn't meant for William—it was meant for Michelle, who was next to him.
'William, let's go over there,' Michelle said jealously, afraid that the seductive Kayla would steal William away.
'Oh,' William nodded, still not understanding why Michelle suddenly wanted to go over there.
Kayla watched as William was pulled away by Michelle, feeling inexplicably disappointed.
Soon, almost everyone arrived in the reception hall. There were nearly two thousand people in total. This scale of a party was undoubtedly the largest in history.
Antony took the microphone and stood at the center of the stage, greeting everyone and thanking them for attending his party.
Without beating around the bush, he directly stated the purpose of the party.
'This gathering, the Power Group will collaborate with all of you to establish a new chamber of commerce alliance. The benefits, discounts, and development prospects will far surpass those of the CC Alliance,' Antony announced. Suddenly, a buzz of excitement erupted from the crowd.
Antony was indeed planning to directly confront the Watson family. Now, everyone was eager to see what kind of benefits he would offer."
Attracting them to join.
"The new guild is temporarily named WE ARE Guild. Anyone who joins my guild can enjoy the following benefits."
Antony didn't waste any words and continued his announcement after clearing his throat.
"Firstly, you can participate in the development and construction of the North district market. Secondly, you can enter YJ Club without any qualifications. Those who meet the conditions can enjoy an interest rate 1% lower than that of the Watson family bank for loans. Thirdly, the Morris City port will be unconditionally open to all. Fourthly, you can collaborate with the Brown family's industries nationwide. And fifth..."
With each item Antony mentioned, the people below were shocked because these benefits were far better than those of the CC Alliance. What's more, Antony skillfully targeted the advantages of the CC Alliance, systematically attacking each one. This was what made it most terrifying.
The Watson family was in the financial industry, so Antony used the wealth and influence of the YJ Club to specifically target them by offering an interest rate 1% lower than that of the Watson family bank.
Similarly, the Harrison family focused on port operations, so Antony unconditionally opened the ports of nearby cities, specifically targeting them. Collaborating with the Brown family's industries was also a targeted attack against the Walsh family.
At the same time, Antony wanted those business owners to see that joining the WE ARE Guild had a much brighter future, both in the present and in future development prospects, compared to the CC Alliance.
Just as Antony finished announcing these benefit policies, the various business owners below began to discuss excitedly.
"Will these policies really be implemented?"
"If what he said is true, the CC Alliance of the Watson family will be completely overwhelmed!"
"No wonder Antony is so remarkable. He can take people down with just one move. I'm lucky to have attended this gathering. It was truly worth it."
"This WE ARE Guild seems to offer much better benefits than the CC Alliance!"
Many business owners placed their trust in Antony's character, so they naturally believed his words and eagerly waited to sign the guild agreement and join. However, an untimely voice broke the crowd's thoughts.
"Boss Jones, what you say sounds good, but could it be a lie?" The voice came from Manuel, who was now smiling faintly.
