“You, sure?”
When Itai Huntington asked this question, her gaze slowly shifted to Julius Reed.
She was very clear that this matter had to have Julius Reed’s approval.
Otherwise, everything would be in vain and she would also offend a potential ally.
Itai Huntington, well-versed in the rules of the commercial battlefield, would absolutely not allow Bran Cook to usurp Quella Radcliffe’s position and dominate alone.
In that case, her position as chairman would be unstable; she needed two forces to counterbalance each other.
But she also didn’t want Quella Radcliffe to become her direct competitor.
Julius Reed’s suggestion for her to take the chairman role had clued her in on his intentions.
If it were Quella Radcliffe, she wouldn’t be able to intimidate those old slicks in Gonzalez City.
It was Itai Huntington who, with her substantial strength and fearsome reputation, could barely keep them in check.
But once one takes that position, no one wants to come down from it.
She needed the power behind both Bran Cook and Julius Reed to counterbalance each other.
While she mediated in the middle.

“If the dispute goes on like this, I’m afraid the business alliance can’t operate smoothly and promptly. Today, let’s all bear witness here and see who has the superior ability,”
Julius Reed said with a smile.
“Exactly! Whichever side wins, that victorious party will undeniably be the rightful candidate for general manager. All entrepreneurs must obey, otherwise, they will be enemies of the entire alliance!” Bran Cook said, looking toward Itai Huntington, “But I wonder… about the Willson Group…”
Previously, even after securing the support of the majority of Gonzalez City entrepreneurs, he failed to take the position of general manager.
Ultimately, it was due to the Willson Group, the financial backer, opposing him, rendering everyone else’s protests useless.
In the face of absolute power, everything else is futile.
If he won but the Willson Group disagreed in the end, wouldn’t it all be for nothing?
Everyone knew this was a game of spending money and leveraging connections!
Whoever has stronger connections and more money will win.
With the support of so many leading Gonzalez City enterprises standing behind Bran Cook, contributing both money and effort, wouldn’t they be offended if they did not reap benefits in the end?
“Rest assured about that!”
Quella Radcliffe looked at Bran Cook coldly and said dominantly, “If I lose, I will personally explain the matter to the Willson Group and ensure you become the general manager of the business alliance. With so many witnesses here today, My word is my bond!”
“Excellent!”
Bran Cook slammed the table, excitement written all over his face!
That was exactly the assurance he needed!
Under such scrutiny, if he lost credibility, how could Quella Radcliffe stand in Gonzalez City?
The small Radcliffe Group would be obliterated in an instant.
“Since both of you agree, it seems indeed to be the best solution now.”
Itai Huntington took a deep breath, feeling somewhat concerned for Quella Radcliffe.
The Cook family would definitely stir the waters from behind, and with the help of these entrepreneurs, it would be tough for Quella Radcliffe to win.
Moreover, Bran Cook had already been mixing in the capital for a long time and had particularly extensive connections.
Nowadays, the most popular stars were active in the capital; it wouldn’t be difficult for him to invite a few of the hottest young stars.
“I’ll say it outright before anything else; since all of you here agree, when the result is out, anyone who refuses to obey should not blame me, Itai Huntington, for being impolite!”
She added once again.
The best news was that, regardless of the outcome, once the final benefit distribution scheme was set, the business alliance could begin operating normally.
With the Lunar New Year approaching, once this matter was resolved before the festival, after the holiday, they could start focusing on specific matters and begin making money.
“No problem!”
Everyone answered in unison.
After nailing down the matter, the party atmosphere relaxed once more.
Everyone chatted amicably, exchanging pleasantries and enjoying the moment.
“Mr. Cook, I’ve been maintaining a relationship with a young model who knows Asher Marsh. If we invited Asher Marsh over, wouldn’t we be assured a victory?”
A greasy middle-aged man in his fifties said creepily.
He was the Chairman of the Yangtze River Seafood Group, Cormac Cook.
Although he shared the Cook last name, he wasn’t closely related to Bran Cook; at best, they were from the same ancestral lineage, but it was unclear how many generations apart they were.
“Really?”
Upon hearing this suggestion, Bran Cook’s eyes spun as he pondered the feasibility of the plan.
Asher Marsh was a rising domestic A-list actress who starred in two wildly popular web series and a movie within the same year.
In just one year, she swept numerous awards, surpassing many veteran entertainers and became one of the top stars.
She held significant clout!
To invite such an influential figure, it would no doubt cost a large sum of money.
But as long as they could win, the cost didn’t matter.
“I do have a suggestion,”
An elder suddenly spoke up, “What we need to do this time is to definitely beat Quella Radcliffe. As for inviting Asher Marsh, let’s not even talk about how many connections we need to use, just the endorsement fee alone will be a substantial amount! And we will have to pay for it!”
“Elder Mr. Bay, are you suggesting…?”
Bran Cook asked reverently for advice from the elderly man.
The old man was the chairman of a health product company, who, with his keen foresight, invested in the health industry ten years ago and now made a fortune.
Although his overall wealth didn’t match that of Ovidiu Cook, the richest man in Gonzalez City, he was still a first-rate star entrepreneur locally.
“We should strike later!”
Elder Mr. Bay gently stroked his chin, looked towards Quella Radcliffe’s position, smiled, and said, “Let her look first. Whoever she finds, we negotiate with a bigger offer. This will not only cut costs but also undermine her confidence.”
“Kill two birds with one stone! This move by Elder Mr. Bay is brilliant!”
The surrounding people all raised their thumbs up in admiration, their eyes filled with respect.
Truly the approach of someone who made money hand over fist, thinking differently from everyone else.
“Well then, I’ll listen to Elder Mr. Bay. Later, we’ll have someone monitor Quella Radcliffe the entire time. Wherever she goes, we’ll be there too! That way we can save time and effort and have the last laugh at her downfall!”
Bran Cook raised his glass from the table, squinted his eyes, and said, “To victory, shall we drink?”
“Cheers!”
Everyone drank in one gulp and continued with joyful laughter and chatter.
However, Quella Radcliffe was frowning with worry.
Representing the small and medium businesses of Gonzalez City, she certainly couldn’t simply throw money around like Bran Cook!
“President Radcliffe, what should we do about this? All of us small and medium businesses are counting on you! This Bran Cook clearly has bad intentions. He talks about forming a business alliance, but it’s clear he wants to absorb us!”
“Exactly! If this keeps up, we might all go bankrupt, our life’s work stolen by those scoundrels!”
“You have to think of something, our future is in your hands!”
The small business owners clustered around, raising their glasses with solemn faces, pleading, “Please!”
“Everyone, I will do my best!”
Quella Radcliffe raised her glass, feeling the weight of her responsibility for the first time.
