Chapter 195
At Jack's words, a rare hint of shyness appeared on Feena's face. She said softly, "Thank you. What brings you here?"
Jack replied casually, "I came here with a friend to do something."
"I see."
Although Feena was extremely smart, she would never have associated Jack with the IT summit that was happening upstairs. After all, only top-tier leaders were invited to it. It was also a distant dream for someone like her, who wasn't particularly famous yet.
Still, Feena asked with concern, "Jack... Have you settled the matters regarding Soul?"
Ever since the controversy around Soul blew up, Feena had thought of asking Donald to help Jack, but in the end, Donald was powerless. After all, Jack had not only offended a powerful figure behind the scenes but also the entire music industry.
It was simply because Jack was so talented that he had threatened the other musicians' interests.
That was it.
Jack knew that Feena was referring to the controversy and hateful comments toward his identity as "Soul". He smiled bitterly and said, "It's fine."
Although Jack didn't fully rely on his identity as "Soul" to make a living, that was still something he had built with immense effort. Now that he was in trouble because of it, he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated-but only a little.
Seeing this, Feena decided not to ask further. She knew the details, and she also knew that Jack had offended an incredibly influential person. However, when she thought about how Jack's talent would be buried, with no possibility of him ever making a comeback, she felt bad.
Sensing that the atmosphere was getting heavy, Jack chuckled and changed the subject. "Alright. My friend's probably waiting for me, so I should get going. Let's talk next time."
After that, he turned and left. Feena looked at him, and her lips parted as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she just let out a sigh.
Jack returned to the hall and saw that it was bustling and packed with people. Finally, the summit hosted by the municipal government had officially begun.
In the venue, the business leaders listened to the municipal government official's speech while looking for potential business partners.
In the center of the stage, aside from the mayor of Alnewgo, there was also a middle-aged couple standing there. They were Sandalwood Group's CEO, Quintis Lycan, and his wife, Emily Dawson.
When Jack spotted them, a flicker of darkness and even hatred flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
Not too far away, Patrick was also searching for suitable business partners. Although he was surrounded by many tycoons who were eager to pour their money on him, Patrick still wanted to find a rich but suitable investor for Drakengard Games.
Today, Drakengard Games wasn't small in scale, but if they wanted to make their ambitious plans a reality, they needed to find a wealthy and influential investor without having to pay a price that would cripple the company.
In the hall, beautiful waitresses moved gracefully through the crowd of political and business tycoons, serving drinks while looking for potential "prey". Many of these women were university students.
At this event, the guests invited by the municipal government were all successful entrepreneurs and tycoons. Therefore, they were naturally irresistible targets to the waitresses.
If they could marry a rich man in his 50s or 60s, it would be worth it. After all, he would pass away in a few years, so he'd spend lavishly.
And if they met a young bachelor, their life would reach its peak. However, this seemed like a far-fetched dream, as there were almost no young bachelors who could make it to this elite summit, unless they were born into an extremely rich family.
But this was extremely rare. Even if there were such people, there'd be hundreds and thousands of admirers around them, making it difficult for ordinary people to get close to them.
Very soon, several of the women's attention were attracted by Jack.
With a height of over six feet and with his striking presence even among the tycoons, it was difficult to ignore him. Thɪs chapter is updated by Find★Novel.net
