Still, Javier confidently addressed Ezzo, “Mr. Ezzo, the Beckett Group owns our racecourses in Sna


    City and other cities. We’re


    considered the most experienced in developing racecourses.”


    Hearing that, Cornelius, scoffed under his breath. “Pfft. That’s very cocky of him.”

    Victor could no longer hold back and opined, “Mr. Javier, the Beckett Group indeed owns racecourses,


    but it’s an overstatement to im that you’re the most experienced in building one. We’re the host of


    the horseracing event this year. You do know that this is thergest racecourse in Sna City, don’t


    you?”


    Javier calmly argued, “That’s because it’s built new. Back in the day, the Beckett Group was unrivaled.”


    Equally irked, Victor countered with an example of Winston’s, “The KS Group built its racecourse 30


    years ago. Not only was it thergest in the country, but it is also the only racecourse in Belbanks until


    today. Quite a stretch to say that you’re the most experienced in racecourse building when Winston has


    not even imed that title.”


    Winston was surprised when Victor dragged him into the argument. Javier, feeling humiliated, breathed


    deeply to calm himself down. He knew Victor had deliberately pitted him against the Taylors, possibly


    because the Schmidts nned to work with the Taylors against the Becketts.


    “Besides, building the racecourse is not the priority. The quality of the horses and the sourcing process


    are very important. Even in those aspects, the KS Group is more experienced than the Beckett Group.


    They have ess to pure-bred horses abroad and own vast stables in Belbanks. The quality of their


    horses is assured.


    “Oh, Mr. Javier, you don’t seem to be in touch with thetest market developments. That’s


    understandable, though. It’s the era of the younger generation, after all,” Victor continued his verbal


    attack, showing his displeasure with the Beckett Group.


    His final remark touched the sore spot of Javier. Since it was inappropriate for Cornelius to make any


    comment, Preston took the chance to pitch the Harper Group’s capabilities. “Mr. Ezzo, we have our


    own stables too! The quality of our horses is top-notch. In fact, we bred and trained horse No. 8 in this


    race! Isn’t eight a pretty good number?”


    Preston knew that he would score points with Cornelius and gain respect in thepany if he


    managed to bag this lucrative.


    coboration with Jesselton Incorporated. If he secured the win, it would be easier for him to counter


    Landon’s influence. To him, Landon was a good-for-nothing who should be wasting away his life. with


    Lauren instead of meddling withpany affairs.


    Except for Winston, the other three men were at war.


    Jasper whispered in Alyssa’s ear, “Lyse, Uncle Winston is prettyposed, isn’t he? He doesn’t even


    bother topete.”


    With a glint in her eye, she turned to him. “Do you find the Jesselton. Incorporated project attractive?”


    “Of course.”


    “If you think so, do you believe Winston isn’t interested in it?” She elbowed Jasper and whispered back,


    “Winston is just faking it. If he isn’t greedy, why would he get himself four wives to begin with?”


    Jasper was rendered speechless and pretty entertained by how Alyssa took a jab at her father. She


    continued, “He’s too used to having the upper hand. It’s been years since he initiated a partnership.


    Most of the time, his business partners woulde to him, or Jonah would be neyouquny un mis

    She crossed her arms and shook her head disapprovingly.


    “So, what happens now?” As he spoke, he ced a hand on her wrist. When no one was looking, his


    hand traveled down to the small of her back before proceeding further..


    “Um…”
