Gareth led Carlisle to the frontmost table which was where the contract was placed. With a smile, he introduced Carlisle to the crowd.
"First of all, I'd like to thank everyone for taking time out of their busy schedules to witness the signing ceremony between myself and Dragonaire Game Company.
"Allow me to introduce my business partner, the chairman of Dragonaire Game Company, Carlisle Zahn!"
"He's so young!"
"Dragonaire Game Company? Never heard of it. Do we have such a company in Riverland?" "No. I'm in the gaming industry, and I know pretty much every game company in Riverland, big or small. I've never heard of this one!"
"This kid is probably fresh out of high school and started a business with his parent's money."
The crowd buzzed with chatter.
A high-ranking official from the Department of Culture and Tourism smiled at Sheldon. "Riverland sure is filled with extraordinary people. What a young entrepreneur!" "Brookfield State has never been short of talent," Sheldon replied while smiling broadly.
Riverland is part of Brookfield State. While the officials had praised Riverland, Sheldon wanted to elevate the entire state.
"Mr. Darnell, doesn't that young man look familiar?" the secretary beside Sheldon whispered.
Sheldon nodded and smiled. "I noticed him as soon as he entered. He's the student who finished the SATs in just 30 minutes!"
Josie's calm face turned into one of astonishment upon hearing Gareth's introduction. She had finally seen who Carlisle was. It was no wonder he could win over Wanda-he had some skills. But unfortunately, that wasn't enough. Moreover, Wanda was already betrothed.
Josie composed herself and elegantly sipped her red wine.
"Hello, everyone. My name is Carlisle, and I'm a student at Riverland University. I'm a novice in the world of entrepreneurship, and I look forward to learning from all of you."
Carlisle waved at the crowd.
The crowd was taken aback once more by the fact that he was still a student at Riverland University. While their children were squandering resources at Carlisle's age, he had already started a business-and not a small one at that. They began to speculate about his origins.
After leaving the suite, Liam stormed into the elevator. It stopped on the third floor, where he ran into an acquaintance from Riverland on the phone.
Liam's eyes lit up.
"Mr. Cagney?"
Randy Cagney was startled. When he noticed it was Liam in the elevator, he hung up the phone and grinned.
"Mr. Ziegler, what brings you to Riverland?"
Liam stepped out of the elevator and shook hands with Randy.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
"I'm in Riverland to discuss a business deal!"
"If it brought you here personally, it must've been a big one."
Liam waved his hand in frustration.
"Don't get me started. I was nearly driven mad."
"Calm down. Let me take you to Mr. Spencer's signing ceremony!"
Randy chuckled.
"Mr. Spencer?"
"Come on. You'll find out soon enough!"
Randy led Liam to the banquet hall. Liam gasped in surprise when he saw the two biggest entrepreneurs of Riverland there. He became more nervous when he noticed the governor of Riverland.
Finally, Liam's eyes locked onto Gareth and Carlisle. He stared intently at Carlisle, recalling the latter's earlier words. A chill ran down his spine.
He couldn't believe that Carlisle actually had a 200 million investment deal in the works.
