Chapter 7 Want to Meet Someone Important
“Pietro’s boss? Isn’t that Giovani Beneli?”
Miru scoffed and said, “Kaze, do you even know who Giovani Beneli is? That is a big shot with a vast network and influence, even my godfather has to respect him. You are here saying that Giovani Beneli is hosting a feast for you as a token of apology? Are you trying to get yourself killed?”
“Miru, if you don’t believe me, you can go up there and see for yourself,” Kaze said calmly but Miru rolled her eyes at him.
Henry regained his composure and said with a smile, “I think he saw Giovani’s car at the entrance, that’s why he said so. Fortunately, there are no outsiders here, or else all of us would suffer if it reaches the © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
man’s ears.”
Everyone was afraid.
“I’ve had enough of your nonsense!” Agnes slammed the table and shouted, “You keep being a retard and it embarrasses us. Get out of my face or I’ll slap you to death!”
“Kaze, why don’t you go first? I’ll come home after dinner.”
Darcy was embarrassed as well. She got up and dragged Kaze
outside.
Kaze felt helpless. “Alright then, don’t drink too much, Darcy. I’ll come pick you up later.”
After Kaze left, the room regained its peace and quiet.
Agnes had a few cups of tea to calm the anger down.
Henry did not mind the farce at all. The stupider Kaze was, the higher
and retarded forever.
“Mr. Beneli, who are you welcoming tonight?”
“Yeah, you’re hosting the feast in Emperor Hall and invited us all here. as guests. This is a little over the top, isn’t it?”
In front of the elevator of the Emperor Hall, several imposing men and women surrounded Giovani and asked him what the event was for.
They were some of the most powerful figures in the city.
The person in charge of the Provincial Urban Development System,
John Walker.
President of Lilyrose Bank, Genji Lord.
Chairwoman of the Sixth Eye Jewelry Group, Jasmine Sundar.
They were all movers and shakers of the city who could shift the city with a single word.
Giovani said coldly, “His identity is confidential. I invited all of you
here to make things more lively and it’s your honor to be here. All of you are here because we are close. Remember, whatever you say or do, do not be rude or offend him.”
Confidential identity?
The men and women present were veterans in their respective fields and they had the demeanor to navigate even the most challenging situations. However, Giovani’s words somehow managed to make
them nervous.
“What should we call him?”
“Hmm…” Giovani pondered and decided to go with the most
respectful way
Ding!
The elevator door opened and revealed Kaze alone inside.
John and the others were surprised by the age of the important figure.
“Master Lee, you are here!”
Giovani went up to Kaze and held the door for him, making sure that
Kaze could walk out without hindrance.
“Master Lee!”
The men and women replaced their surprise with a respectful tone and bowed to Kaze, before extending their name cards to him.
After they were seated, the President of Lilyrose Bank, Genji, offered Kaze a meticulous gift he had prepared.
“Master Lee, here’s a little gift that we prepared for you. Inside the box is our premium Black card. With it, you will be a premium VIP of Lilyrose Bank.”
“Thank you.”
Kaze took it and said, “Since we are here to eat, don’t mind the formalities. Make yourself at home.”
They enjoyed a few rounds of drinks and delicious dishes that delighted everyone.
When Kaze had enough, he got up and said, “Let’s call it a day. I have to go downstairs to pick up my wife.”
After sending Kaze into the elevator, Giovani said to his men, “Find
out where Ms. Quint is and take care of their bill.”
Dinner at Moonlight Breeze Hall was still in progress.
Henry excused himself for a while and came back with a few more
young men.
The leading young man looked sharp and energetic.
“Let me introduce to you all, Geoffrey, son of John Walker, the person in charge of the Provincial Urban Development System.”
Henry introduced the young man to the Quint family and everyone got on their feet to greet him.
Henry, I did not know you were friends with Mr. Walker here,” Miru sesaid with a delighted smile.
Henry said, “Geoffrey here wants to meet you. He heard you were hahaving dinner with us, so he came here to meet you in person.”
MiMiru was surprised. She realized Geoffrey’s eyes were glued to her as sosoon as he entered the room.
Shishadtadeseen many men with such a gaze on her, so she smiled and extreladed her hand. “Mr. Walker, if you want to meet, just give me a patla Morosi shouldn’t have come all the way here.”
1 hearary Ms. Scarlet is a beauty, so I want to witness your with my ovowayeyes.”
Miru blue heidechupon hearing her praises sung.

Geoffrey showered eagerness in his eyes but he knew impatience would not get emim the prey. He waved his hand and said, “Alright actually here with my father. Mr. Beneli is hosting some importa figure on the rainth thatoor, the Emperor Hall. My father was invited, an he brought me alotong.
‘However, Mr. Benetiesasa ibyoungsters like us are not qualified to be at the table, so we are not allowed inside.”
Geoffrey looked helpless bubut it did not conceal the delight in his eyes.
He might not get the chance to meet the important figure but his father did, along with only a handful of other influential figures.
The others were shocked.
Agnes and Hector thought of what Kaze said earlier. Could he be the important figure that Giovani was hosting?
However, they shook their heads after a second. A recently recovered retard had nothing to do with such an important figure.
Miru was surprised as well. She asked, “How important is this person for Mr. Beneli to receive them in the Emperor Hall?”
Delighted, Geoffrey said, “My father doesn’t even know the person’s true identity, but it was said that this person is closely related to Draco Lang, the new chief commander.”
Everyone gasped in shock.
Recently, something big happened in Lilyrose.
The first would be Sky High Investment Group’s entry to the city, and the other would be the newly arrived Chief Commander of Lilyrose Strategic Department, Draco Lang.
The important figure was closely related to the new chief commander? He must be someone important as well.
Miru was deeply enthralled, which made Geoffrey smile. He said,
When the dinner at the Emperor Hall is over, I can take you to meet them when they come down.”
“Great! Thank you!”
Everyone was buzzing with excitement.
