Chapter 450 Everyone Kneels to Apologize
Archer's sudden change left everyone in the private room extremely shocked. The impact was ten times, even a hundred times stronger than when James successfully paid $990,000 earlier.
Especially Yael, who was completely dumbfounded, his mouth agape, constantly gasping in astonishment.
Archer was the Vice President of the Serenity Haven Hotel, backed by the Smith Family, a powerful force in this area. Now, he was so scared that he knelt before James like a dog, continuously kowtowing.
Yael had known Archer for three years and had never seen him so frightened. Even in front of the hotel owner, Wylie, Archer was only respectful.
Quickly, he thought of a possibility. James might be from the Smith family, the force behind Serenity Haven Hotel.
As for True, his shock was no less than Yael's because he knew Archer's status even better. He knew how high Archer's position was in the industry. As long as President Wylie was not around, Archer was the absolute authority.
In the City of Mysteries, running a five-star hotel of such caliber required more than just money; it needed connections and power.
But someone as formidable as Archer was so terrified in front of James that he knelt and begged for mercy. This meant James had a very powerful background. At that moment, True felt immense fear.
Especially when True remembered how he had threatened James earlier and even teamed up with Yael to bully him, his soul trembled. In his decades of life, he had never felt such fear.
Quade and Juniper were pale and trembling, filled with regret, their legs shaking so much they could barely stand.
They were so scared that they started crying.
As for Brandy, her shock was the same as them.
It was more of a jolt than a shock.
That sensation was indescribable, beyond the realm of words. It felt as though something had filled her heart to the brim. She stared blankly at the imposing figure of James before her, her mind a void, and her heartbeat rapid beyond any precedent.
In fact, this wasn't her first time meeting James. She had known about him from a medical conference in M City and regarded as her first idol.
Brandy had always wanted to find James, to meet this legendary genius in the medical field, but she never had the chance. As time passed, she gradually gave up.
Later, by chance, she discovered that James was the new honorary professor at their university. When she saw James, she was so happy and excited.
During that class, she couldn't take her eyes off James and didn't miss a single word he said.
James did not disappoint her; his medical skills were truly impressive, once again touching her pure soul. She raised her hand many times when James asked questions, but he had never noticed her or chose her, which made her feel very disappointed.
After that, Brandy kept an eye on James's classes, wanting to attend his lecture again and find an opportunity to get close to her idol.
Unfortunately, after that one class, James disappeared for almost half a month, making her feel disappointed again.
Finally, when she had given up hope of ever seeing James again, she unexpectedly encountered him, sitting next to her. At that moment, she was incredibly excited, more than ever before.
Brandy even believed she was hallucinating until she pinched her thigh hard and realized she wasn't dreaming; It was real James before her.
She quickly sat down and started chatting with James, admiring him greatly.
She tried to control herself, to remain reserved, but she couldn't stay calm; she was just too excited. She didn't understand why she was so excited; after all, James wasn't a big celebrity, just a doctor, a professor.
She loved the medical field so much, and James was a standout in that field. The charm he exuded fascinated her immensely.
Later, after some conversation, she wasn't disappointed. James's skills were indeed very high, solving many problems that had troubled her for a long time.
After that, Brandy invited James to dinner.
During the meal, to be honest, she felt disappointed for the first time, as if her dream had shattered. She found that James, despite his medical prowess, was too flamboyant, even arrogant and foolish.
Her admiration for James plummeted, and she even felt a sense of disgust.
But at this moment, situation had changed. The authority and presence James displayed were like a devastating tsunami, violently flooding her mind and soul, completely overturning her thoughts.
Looking at James, she felt an emotion she had never experienced before. It seemed to be more than just admiration; it was a higher level of reverence.
It turned out that James wasn't arrogant or dismissive of others; he was just that powerful.
James didn't notice Brandy's change in thoughts. At this moment, he coldly looked at Archer, who was kowtowing before him, a fire of anger burning within him inside.
He had left the City of Mysteries for five years and had just returned, only to encounter such a situation.
If Serenity Haven Hotel belonged to someone else, he wouldn't be so angry. But Serenity Haven Hotel was his creation, like his child. Now this child was being ruined. No matter how good his temper was, he would be very angry.
"Archer, who gave you the guts to be so arrogant in my hotel?" James's tone was icy.
Archer felt his anger, trembling even more. Even though his head was starting to spin, he kept kowtowing persistently, not daring to relax for a moment.
James looked up, his gaze falling on True. True shuddered violently and quickly knelt down, kowtowing for apology.
Next were Quade and Juniper. When James's gaze swept over them, they were terrified and knelt down, kowtowing and apologizing.
In the private room, only Brandy was left standing.
