"I forgot to bring my membership card, Mrs. Marina. Connor is my good buddy, and I'm a third-level member of the club, according to the rules of Verona. I can bring two people in, is that okay? "George asked impatiently.
"Of course! Welcome to Verona! "The beautiful blonde woman named Marina nodded with a smile. She waved her hand and said, "Young Master George, Mr. Connor, please follow me!"
Under Marina's lead, the two of them walked to a quiet, luxurious private room on the second floor of the club. When the two of them were seated, Marina clapped her hands lightly. Instantly, a fragrant wind blew in. Four sexy and graceful young ladies dressed in gorgeous gowns walked into the private room in a single file. Each of them held a bottle of precious red wine in their hands.
They placed the wine on the glass table in the private room and stood in a straight line in front of George and Connor.
"Good day to you, Sir!" The young ladies lifted their skirts and bowed slightly to Connor and George.
Looking at the ladies in front of him, Connor couldn't help but feel thirsty. He was very clear that if he wanted to, he could push them down.
Connor's throat wriggled for a moment, but he still showed a calm expression on his face.
"Thank you, Madam Marina. You can keep all these ladies!" George's eyes were like a hungry wolf as they wandered around the curvaceous and beautiful bodies.
"As you wish, Young Master George. I believe that our ladies will give the two of you a very big surprise!" After saying that, the blonde lady Marina smiled sweetly and winked at George. She then walked out of the room and carefully closed the door.
With two young ladies in front of him, the atmosphere in the room instantly exploded. After three rounds of wine, George's flushed face suddenly turned vicious. "Connor, sometimes I really want to find two Bohemians and f * ck Olsen up!"
Hearing George's words, Connor's face instantly turned cold. He pushed away the young lady who was serving him and signaled for the four of them to leave the private room.
Olsen was George's half-brother from a different mother. He was also George's greatest enemy when it came to inheriting the Sanchez Family's business! It was said that George and Olsen's father, Mr. Harvey and Olsen's mother, were a couple and had a very good relationship. However, due to family reasons, Mr. Harvey finally married George's mother and gave birth to his eldest son, George. However, Mr. Harvey also made a mistake that any man would make. He took Olsen's mother as his mistress and gave birth to Olsen.
Logically speaking, in the Kahman Empire where the eldest son inherited the throne, Olsen's existence wouldn't pose any threat to George. However, perhaps because he wanted to compensate his beloved for not being able to give her a status, Mr. Harvey doted on Olsen a lot. He even gave Olsen a portion of his family's assets.
If that was all, perhaps George wouldn't be so angry and want to start a massacre. After all, Mr. Harvey was still the head of the family. Moreover, no matter how much Mr. Harvey divided the family's assets to Olsen, the core business of the family would still be inherited by George.
What really made George extremely angry was that his beloved half-brother, Olsen, was very ambitious. After receiving Mr. Harvey's share of the family's assets, he wanted to take over his brother's position as the first successor. This was something that George couldn't tolerate.
After the young ladies left the private room, Connor poured half a glass of wine for George and asked in a serious tone, "What did Olsen do?"
George drank the wine that Connor handed over to him and said bitterly, "Last month, the old man asked me to manage a small dock. There is a batch of goods stored in the warehouse. This batch of goods exists on the account, but in fact, this batch of goods has already been taken away by someone, and no trace is left!"
After listening to George's narration, Connor couldn't help but feel a little incredulous. "George, don't tell me you didn't bring an accountant and just accepted it after checking the assets?"
"Connor, do you think I, George, am that stupid? The accountant that I brought with me should have been bribed by Olsen. When I went to look for him yesterday, I found out that he had already committed suicide! "George gripped his wine glass tightly and said coldly.
"The accountant was silenced? Why? Was that batch of goods very valuable? "Connor realized the problem and asked.
George shook his head and took another big gulp of wine. He sighed and said, "They were all custom-made tableware that was going to be shipped to the New World. The total price was about a hundred pounds. The goods weren't the main point. The main point was that in three days, my damned uncle Elkan would be coming to check. If he found out about this problem, I would definitely be criticized at the family meeting!
"If I were to embarrass myself at this juncture, the opportunity that my mother fought so hard for me to manage Port Hope would definitely be gone. Olsen is so ruthless!"
Port Hope was one of the top ten private ports in the entire Loen City. It was one of the most important core industries of the Sanchez family. George was now taking over the management of this small port to accumulate experience in managing Port Hope in the future. Elkan was Mr. Harvey's younger brother, which meant that he was George's uncle. Port Hope was currently under Elkan's management, so George was trying to steal his cheese. If Elkan caught George's weakness, George's desire to take over Port Hope would be ruined!
"A hundred pounds worth of goods? You're so rich, George. You don't lack this little bit. Could it be that there's a problem with this batch of goods? "Connor immediately grasped the crux of the problem.
"The problem lies with this batch of goods. If it were ordinary cutlery, I, George, would have paid for it even if it was a thousand pounds, let alone a hundred pounds!"
"Unfortunately, this batch of goods is what the director of the East Hoy Company in the New World, Ranieri, wants. Furthermore, Ranieri likes this set of custom-made cutlery very much. He has been urging us more than once. Our family's business focus has gradually shifted to the New World over the years, and it wasn't easy for us to get in touch with Ranieri. The custom-made cutlery that he wants is only produced in Bernabeu, and it can't be found anywhere else. Even if we wanted to ship it over from Bernabeu, it would take at least a week to reach Loen, even if we took the fastest train!" George's expression was gloomy, and he looked a little dispirited.
"George, are you sure that this was Olsen's doing?" Connor thought for a moment and asked with narrowed eyes.
He had met Olsen a few times. In Connor's impression, Olsen was a shrewd young man, but he didn't have the ability to silently take the goods out of the Sanchez family's warehouse.
"At first, I didn't believe that this trap was set up by that kid, but I received news that Olsen met with Elkan two months ago!" George said bitterly.
