Travis Lane’s unexpected remarks sent shockwaves through the office, leaving the Wilson family members in a state of disbelief.
Could it be that he had come to congratulate Claire?
After all, he was the wealthiest individual in Lancaster!
How did Charlie and Claire even establish a connection with him?
Christopher was taken aback. He never anticipated that Travis would be so blunt and dismissive towards him in front of everyone. Feeling humiliated, he quickly stepped back and kept to himself.
Wendy, puzzled, leaned over to Harold and whispered, “Is this chubby guy really the richest man in Lancaster? He seems more like an actor playing a role to trick us. Why would someone of his stature be so nice to a nobody?”
Harold nodded, whispering back, “I’m not convinced he’s the real deal either…”
None of the attendees had ever encountered Travis Lane in person, but they had heard tales of his strict management style and notorious reputation. The man before them was nothing like the harsh figure described in the rumors; he spoke softly and kindly to Charlie.
Travis then produced a beautifully crafted box from his bag and presented it to Claire. “Mrs. Wade, congratulations on the launch of your company. Please accept this small gift.”
Claire was taken aback. She hadn’t invited Travis, nor did she know him well enough to feel comfortable accepting his gift.
Charlie smiled warmly and nudged her gently. “Honey, it’s a congratulatory gift. You should definitely accept it…”
Reluctantly, Claire took the box but was hesitant to open it. Wendy prompted from behind, “Come on, Claire! It’s a gift from Mr. Lane. Shouldn’t we see what it is?”
“Yes, Mr. Lane is a billionaire; his gift must be something spectacular,” Harold chimed in.
Claire glanced at Charlie for reassurance and slowly began to unwrap the box as everyone watched eagerly.
Inside the elegant box lay a stunning jade pendant.
The pendant was flawless; the emerald jade sparkled brilliantly under the light, showcasing its radiant and translucent qualities.
Lady Wilson’s eyes were glued to the pendant, captivated by its beauty.
She recognized it immediately—it was The Breezy Moon, which had been auctioned in Eastcliff not long ago!
It had fetched a staggering fifty million dollars, purchased by an ultra-wealthy individual in Lancaster. She had never imagined that the buyer was Travis.
Her eyes glinted with envy as she stared at the pendant. If the Wilson family could acquire it, it might just turn their fortunes around!
Wendy remarked enviously, “Wow, I can’t believe someone actually came to our little gathering. I wonder what kind of luck they must have to know Mr. Lane…”
Just then, the front desk’s announcement echoed through the room, “Miss Claire Wilson, your congratulatory gifts have arrived!” This was followed by a deafening rumble from outside.
Everyone hurried outside, and when they looked up, they were astonished to see the square cleared for a massive helicopter descending gracefully.
Immediately, the building’s staff sprang into action.
They began moving flower arrangements and gifts from the helicopter into Claire’s office.
