Chapter 195 The Sought-After Elite Second Generation
The business owners in the reception hall were eagerly awaiting the arrival of the so-called top elite second generation. The girls gathered in front of the stage, eagerly anticipating Mr. Brown's arrival, hoping to catch a glimpse of his charm.
Manuel was particularly eager to see what tricks Antony would play and was ready to expose him.
Soon, William, exuding an air of luxury, walked out from behind the stage corridor. He looked magnificent, with a breeze accompanying his every step. Several security guards cleared the way ahead of him, with Antony, Steve, and Gerardo bringing up the rear.
Three top figures from New York followed closely, what a grand and powerful lineup!
Instantly, they caught the attention of everyone present.
"Look, they're coming out, and Mr. Parker is with them."
"Where is Mr. Brown? Which one is Mr. Brown?"
"That person walking in front, wearing a white mask, is that Mr. Brown?" The voice could be heard from the crowd.
Instantly, everyone's gaze focused on William.
"What a powerful presence. There are security guards in front, and three top figures from New York following behind. Such a grand scene!" Suddenly, a girl was mesmerized by William's entrance.
"Mr. Brown has such a cool way of walking! Even Mr. Parker and Antony, who are important figures, can only follow behind him. He truly deserves to be called the heir to the world's top luxury family."
"It's a shame we can't see his face, but judging from what he's wearing, they are all top brands in the world. I really want to marry into a wealthy family!"
...
Those materialistic girls were fantasizing about marrying into a wealthy family, just so they could wear the world's most expensive and revered clothes and accessories.
However, unlike the infatuated girls, what astonished those business owners was William's aura.
"Mr. Brown truly deserves to be the heir of the world's top family. He even has the three most influential figures in New York following him!"
"It really is Mr. Brown! Who else has such grandeur? He's truly amazing!"
"With Mr. Brown joining, the CC Alliance is no match at all, and Antony's announced welfare measures are far better than the CC Alliance's!"
"That's right! Now we just have to wait for WE ARE Chamber to join!"
...
Merely witnessing Mr. Brown's entrance, these CEOs and chairmen almost subconsciously decided to join the WE ARE Chamber.
Among them, the most incredulous of all was Manuel, whose face turned extremely unpleasant.
"How is this possible? Antony actually managed to invite Mr. Brown. It must be fake, it simply can't be the actual Mr. Brown. I will expose him." Manuel was starting to go mad. He absolutely could not allow himself to lose.
When William stepped onto the stage, Manuel couldn't wait any longer and stood up to question.
"Mr. Brown is wearing a mask, he must be an actor hired by Antony. Nobody should believe him. This is a fake Mr. Brown. Why else would he be wearing a mask?"
At this point, Manuel knew he had to raise doubt amongst the people gathered here, so he could only raise this issue for questioning. If he did not act out in this manner, the strength of the WE ARE Chamber would soar, and their CC Alliance would crumble.
"What? Fake?" Many business owners also voiced the same doubts.
When their gaze fell upon the white mask worn by William, there was a hint of belief that couldn't help but flicker in their hearts.
However, William merely lifted a corner of his mouth and cleared his throat before stepping onto the stage to explain.
"Ladies and gentlemen, due to the countless enemies the Brown family has made, there are many who wish to do harm to me. So, I have no choice but to wear a mask to conceal my identity. I sincerely hope you can understand."
"I see. That explanation from Mr. Brown is understandable. After all, he is the rich second generation of a top-tier global family, and there must be countless individuals watching him every day. It's understandable that he chose to hide his face for the sake of his own safety."
However, Manuel couldn't resist jumping up and shouting.
"You are only making baseless claims. What evidence do you have to prove that you are Mr. Brown? I think you're just an actor, a fraud!"
Manuel's repeated provocations caused William to furrow his eyebrows slightly, but he patiently replied.
"If you don't believe me, you can have these three individuals behind me testify. Antony, Steve, and Mr. Parker. You should be able to trust their words, right?"
William was already showing considerable patience. Under normal circumstances, he would have punched this jumping jester below him a long time ago.
"Naturally, we trust them." The people below immediately spoke up. After all, these three individuals were influential figures in New York.
Antony, Steve, and Mr. Parker soon took the stage to provide a brief proof of Mr. Brown's identity, primarily to confirm that this Mr. Brown was indeed Mr. Brown. Although he wore a mask, it was also for his own safety, and they hoped everyone could understand.
These three individuals were the most powerful figures in New York. Their words were undoubtedly trustworthy, and their testimonies left no doubt about William's identity.
However, Manuel refused to give up. He gritted his teeth and could only make one final attempt.
"Antony, Steve, and Mr. Parker are colluding to deceive us. Mr. Brown is a fake. Don't believe them. They're all in on this deception."
Manuel's repeated challenges infuriated even someone with the best temperament, but it was Gerardo who stepped forward first to accuse him.
"Manuel, are you even questioning my words? Furthermore, the CC Alliance formed by the Watson family is suspected of coercing others to sign a chamber of commerce contract. Many people have reported this to me. It's your security guards forcing them to sign, not allowing them to leave without doing so. Therefore, your chamber of commerce contracts are declared void from this moment on." Gerardo had initially not wanted to mention this matter, as he didn't want to get involved in the business world. However, Manuel's repeated and blatant questioning in front of so many people, including casting doubts on him, was something he couldn't tolerate.
In addition, Mr. Brown has agreed to invest in the Bay Area development project and deserves some dignity.
Mr. Parker's words instantly stunned Manuel, causing a cold sweat to break out on his forehead. Without the constraints of the Chamber of Commerce agreement, the members of the CC Alliance would be completely free, and the collapse would happen even faster.
It's over, everything is over. It seems like Manuel's intelligence has backfired on him, and his heart sank instantly. However, what made him even more desperate was still to come.
Suddenly, Antony stood up and angrily rebuked, "Manuel, it seems that the Watson family didn't receive an invitation. How did you manage to get in? Security, escort him out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, four security guards immediately surrounded Manuel and forcefully dragged him out.
"Mr. Brown is a fraud, everyone, don't believe them, it's all a sham! They've conspired to deceive you."
Manuel desperately tried to make one last struggle, but no one believed him anymore!
In the end, Manuel was finally carried out of the YJ Club.
The crowd suddenly fell silent, and now it was Mr. Brown's turn to address them.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Brown family's surrounding industries will gradually join the WE ARE Chamber. As members of the Chamber, you will have the opportunity to collaborate with The Browns' Property. In addition, the port of Moris City will be unconditionally opened to Chamber members, so companies engaged in foreign trade need not worry about a lack of ports for transporting goods. Furthermore, the Chamber members can exchange information and we will also hold an annual Chamber gathering, which I will personally attend!"
William's words filled the hearts of the business owners below with anticipation, and they couldn't wait to sign the Chamber of Commerce agreement immediately.
"Alright, those who are ready to sign the membership agreement can find Boss Jones later, but I need to remind you of one thing. Once you join WE ARE Chamber, you cannot join any other similar chambers. Please take this seriously!" William's mouth curled slightly as he aimed to strike at the Watson family's CC Alliance and make them collapse.
"I'll sign, I'll sign!" someone quickly shouted.
"I will too."
One by one, the business owners began eagerly lining up to prepare to sign the Chamber of Commerce agreement. William nodded in satisfaction when he saw this. This reception was not in vain.
He then gave the stage to Antony and walked off the stage himself. Upon seeing William descend, the girls promptly rushed forward. A few security guards quickly intervened, fearing that they might harm Mr. Brown.
However, the crowd was too crowded and enthusiastic, and a girl suddenly got pushed down, falling to the ground.
Originally, William wouldn't care about it, but the girl he recognized turned out to be Elisa. She was wearing a long strapless evening gown, which she had never worn before. In the chaotic crowded situation, she accidentally stepped on her own gown as all the excitement was surrounding her and fell to the ground.
She was accidentally stepped on by several girls around her. She tried to stand up but couldn't because of the crowd. She felt helpless and pitiful.
When William saw this, he suddenly stopped in his tracks and instinctively walked towards the place where Elisa fell. He was afraid that Elisa would be trampled by others.
"Excuse me, please make way," William frowned.
Initially, those girls didn't realize what was happening and thought William was coming towards them for some reason. But then William coldly said, "Step aside, didn't you see someone fell?"
This time, those self-righteous girls all moved aside. Elisa, feeling helpless, was still lying on the ground with shoe prints on her. She looked quite miserable.
"Are you okay?" William reached out his hand and helped her up.
Elisa was about to say thank you when she was startled to find that it was Mr. Brown who was supporting her. Her face turned crimson, and her heart started pounding. This was the legendary heir of a wealthy family, and she was so nervous!
"This gown doesn't suit you, don't wear it again!" William said as he took off his black suit jacket and draped it over her.
He left gracefully, fearing that if he stayed too long, Elisa would recognize him.
Elisa remained stunned in place, unable to react for a moment. She never expected to really capture Mr. Brown's favor. But when she realized it, Mr. Brown had already left, and she could only see his back. Her face blushed and remained so for a long time.
