Upon hearing this, Juan Diaz burst intoughter, “It’s not time yet? It’s already ten o’clock at night. Are they going toe after midnight?”
Ethan Smith didn’t bother to argue with Juan Diaz, so he said nothing.<div>
After that, more people arrived at the hotel one after another.
These people were all dressed luxuriously and of high status.
And they had almost alle for Juan Diaz.
“Mr. Diaz, I’m from Sunrise Real Estate. I brought a small gift for you. Please ept it.” “Mr. Diaz, I’m from Cloud Enterprises. I’ll need your help after the New Year.”
“Mr. Diaz…”
So many peopleing to pay their New Year’s greetings made Juan Diaz even more smug.
“Our family really made a good match! So many bosses came to pay their respects to you!” Juan Diaz’s rtives couldn’t help but sing his praises.
“Yes, Juan is definitely the most capable one in our family!”
“You’re so lucky to have such a good husband!”
Hearing all thepliments, Juan Diaz casually replied: “They’re just some small bosses, not worth mentioning. After New Year, we’re nning to cooperate with Conrad Schroeder.”
“Conrad Schroeder? Who’s that?” asked someone.<div>
Juan Diaz smiled faintly, “Conrad Schroeder is a big shot from Shince City. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him the richest man in Chuzzle.”
Juan Diaz wasn’t a martial artist and knew nothing about Conrad Schroeder’s real strength, but knew he was very wealthy.
“Juan really knows how to coborate with Chuzzle’s richest man?” “I believe it won’t be long before Juan surpasses this Conrad Schroeder! ”
Juan Diaz chuckled, “I wouldn’t dare say that, but Conrad and I are old acquaintances. He even nned toe to pay me a New Year’s visit, but I refused. ”
Hearing Juan Diaz bragging, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but burst outughing.
What a brilliant real estatepany, Ethan Smith hadn’t even heard of it. In Shince City, it probably wasn’t even a second-rate family.
Coborating with Conrad Schroeder? Ethan Smith doubted that Juan Diaz had even seen Conrad Schroeder.
Juan Diaz shot Ethan Smith a re, scolding him, “What are youughing at? Is it that funny?
Ethan Smith waved his hands, “Sorry, I just couldn’t help it.”
Juan Diaz snorted and said, “Where are the people who are supposed to give you their New Year’s greetings? Why haven’t they arrived yet?”
Ethan Smith thought for a moment and said, “They’re all in Shince City, I suppose it takes some time for them to get here.”<div>
Upon hearing this, Juan Diaz burst intoughter again, “So you mean someone from Shince City wille to pay New Year’s greetings to you? It’s not your security colleagues, is it?”
Upon hearing this, the people at the table couldn’t help but snicker.
Ethan Smith didn’t mind. In his eyes, Juan Diaz was just a clown not worth mentioning.
Just then, Ray Walters suddenly appeared at the entrance of the hotel.
He stood at the entrance, scanning the room before quickly spotting Ethan Smith.
Then, Walters picked up the gifts and hurried over.
“Mr. Smith, why didn’t you tell me you were back? It took me so long to find you,” Ray Walters said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
“This is a small gift I brought for you. It’s said to be a hundred-year-old herb!” Ethan Smith took a sniff, and it really was a hundred-year-old herb.
“Ray Walters, you’re very thoughtful,” Ethan Smith said as he took the gift box.
Juan Diaz nced at Ray Walters and casually asked, “Who is this guy? Another security guard?”
Juan Diaz’s wife quickly tugged at his sleeve and whispered, “This is a big shot from the underworld in River City, not to be messed with!” Regardless, Juan Diaz didn’t seem to care.<div>
He sneered, “So, it’s just a hoodlum who can’t show his face.”
Upon hearing this, Ray Walters’s face changed instantly.
With slight displeasure, he asked, “Mr. Smith, who is this guy? Your friend?”
Ethan Smith shrugged, “He’s the boss of a bigpany in Shince City, we can’t afford to offend him.”
Ray Walters was somewhat confused about the situation, so he didn’t get angry.
Juan Diaz sneered, “So, this ‘Mr. Smith,’ you waited so long for just one hoodlum to pay you a New Year’s greeting? That’s not good, is it?”
Ethan Smith opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly several people with gifts appeared at the door.
Ethan Smith looked at these people, feeling as if they were somewhat unfamiliar.
“Mr. Smith, I’m Mr. Massy from the Der Group in Shince City. I’ve always wanted to visit you, but I was afraid you wouldn’t have time.”
“I’m Phillip Perez from Goldford Technology in Shince City. You can just call me Phillip.”
“Mr. Smith, I’m Ruben from the Runi Group. I especially came to pay a New
Year’s greeting to you.”
Hearing the introductions, Juan Diaz’s face changed slightly.
Thesepanies were all well-known, and in Shince City, they were bigshots!
“Mr. Smith, I’m Qiue Ohli’s secretary. He’s really too busy toe, so he asked me to say hello to you on his behalf.” At that moment, a young man dressed in a Chinese jacket said respectfully.
Upon hearing this, Juan Diaz’s face suddenly turned uglier!
Qiue Ohli’s secretary? He actually came to pay New Year’s greetings to Ethan Smith?
“Impossible! It’s absolutely impossible! They must be actors hired by this kid!” Juan Diaz thought to himself.
Before Juan Diaz could speak, Conrad Schroeder appeared at the door.
He walked up to Ethan Smith, looking travel-worn and said, “Mr. Smith, why didn’t you stay in Shince City for New Year? Many people have been thinking about you.”
Ethan Smith smiled, “River City is my hometown after all.”
At this point, Ethan Smith pointed at Juan Diaz and casually asked, “This kid said he was going to cooperate with you. Do you know him?”
Conrad Schroeder nced at Juan Diaz and frowned, “Who are you?”
Juan Diaz impatiently replied, “I should be asking you that!”
Ethan Smith, half-smiling, half-serious, said, “Didn’t you say you wanted to cooperate with Conrad Schroeder? He’s right here and you don’t even recognize him?”
