Chapter 24

    Chapter 24


    It was a session of top end luxury cars which included Maybach, Rolls Royce, and many more.


    Each of these cars could easily cost over tens of millions!


    The Lopez family looked on with a dazed expression. What the hell is going on here?


    What are all these cars doing here?


    Everyone went pop-eyed when they saw the faces of the people who alighted from the cars. They were


    a group of impably dressed, middle-aged men and women who carried an overpowering air of


    status and power.


    Each of them carried a business savvy look synonymous to the directors of some top corporations.


    “Huh? Isn’t that the President of Far East Investments, Mr. Feliciano Hayes? What brings him here?”


    “Look, that’s the General Manager of Orc Investments Limited, Mr. Roberto Norris!”


    “Isn’t that guy the boss of Starlight Property Development Limited, Mr. Lorenzo Woods?”


    “Oh, my god! Even Pedro Zinno, the President of Hercules Property Development Company, is here


    too!”


    …


    Fabian, Henry, and the rest of them murmured among themselves into a frenzy.


    The names they had murmured were the super-rich and powerful leaders who ruled the corporate


    world of North Hampton. Each of their worth were in billions.


    Lopez Group looked so insignificant in the eyes of these super rich. Any one of them could easily take


    out the Lopez Group without even battling an eyelid.

    The scale and grandeur of so many big shotsing together was a sight to behold for Harry and his


    men.


    It almost took their breath away.


    Harry led Fabian and the rest to hurry themselves forward and greeted the billionaires with fawning


    attention; “Greetings, Mr. Zinno, wee….”


    However, nobody responded to their greetings. All the billionaires walked past them as if they were


    non-existent and headed straight to where Levi and Zoey were standing.


    “How could it be?” Harry said in disbelief, “Could it be they are here to provide funding for Zoey’s


    project?”


    Harry’s eyes widened in stupefaction, his jaws stiffened with astonishment.


    Zoey froze when she saw the billionaires walking towards her. She wondered if her eyes were ying


    tricks on her. These were the same group of people she had approached before to solicit for their


    interests in her project, and they had all rejected her proposal.


    What’s going on? What are they doing here?


    “Hello, Ms. Lopez. I’m Feliciano Hayes from Far East Investments!”


    “Good afternoon, Ms. Lopez. I’m Pedro Zinno and I represent Hercules Property Development.”


    “Nice to meet you, Ms. Lopez. I’m Lorenzo Woods from Starlight Property Development.”


    …


    All the billionaires introduced themselves in a humble manner towards Zoey.


    Everybody gasped in awe.


    Harry and the others from the Lopez family were utterly lost for words.


    It was beyond their wildest imagination to think that these billionaires would show up to fund for Zoey’s


    project.


    Zoey was still trembling inside even though she tried to rpose herself, “H-Hello everyone…how


    are you…”


    “Don’t be nervous, Ms. Lopez! We’re here to discuss our cooperation on the project!”


    Feliciano Hayes shed a cheesy smile, “Far East Investments would be interested to invest one billion


    into your project, Ms. Lopez!”


    Lorenzo Woods counter-offered immediately, “Ms. Lopez, Starlight Property Development would be


    willing to provide up to two billion to fund your project!”


    “No, Orc Investments is willing to invest up to three billion!”


    “We are more than happy to provide up to three billion in funding and even take over the construction


    of your project. Please let Hercules Property Development be your partner instead!”


    “Spark Corporation would invest up to five hundred million in your project! We would not ask for a share


    of your profits, Miss Lopez. All we want is to offer our sincere help!”


    …


    It was like some bidding war that had gone out of control. Every billionaire waspeting to provide


    funding for Zoey’s project.


    The highest bidder had offered to invest up to seven hundred million.


    Everyone was reluctant to give up on the project, which could not had taken more than a billion in total.


    But the bidding war had skyrocketed the total avable funding by ten times its original amount.


    The unexpected twist of events caused Harry’s blood pressure to shoot up exponentially, causing him


    to pass out on the spot.


    Samuel, Shaun and the rest were almost on the verge of puking blood.


    What the hell is going on here?


    Why is everyone behaving like maniacs?


    It was an earth-shattering feeling for Zoey as well.


    She could still recall the smug and dismissive look in their eyes when they snubbed her initial proposal.


    Yet the same group of people were now lining up to impress her, begging her to let them invest in her


    project.


    Aaron and Caitlyn were too emotional to say a single word. They could only respond with their


    quivering bodies.


    “Calm down, Zoey.” Levi put his arm around her to offer his support, “Why don’t you say a few words to


    show your appreciation for their interest in your project.”


    “Right, I’m so d that all of you are keen to invest in my project.” Zoeyposed herself and said,


    “All of you are wee to invest in my project!”


    “Really? That’s good to hear it from Ms. Lopez herself.”


    All the billionaires let out a hefty sigh and wiped away the sweat on their brows after they heard this.
