Chapter 266 After hanging up the phone, Christine kept sneaking peeks atlike she was hiding something.

"What are you looking atfor?" I asked, puzzled.

"Do you think" she started, her voice laced with suspicion, “the investor Laura's setting us up with could be Bryant?" "Doubt it." I shook my head, even though a part ofwasn't so sure. "He just got out of the hospital. I haven't heard him or Kevin talking about anything like this lately." "Then who could it be?" Christine was genuinely puzzled.

I didn't have a clue either, so I simply said, "Well, we've already agreed to the dinner Let's just go and see. RiverCity isn't that large; if it's someone we know, it's bound to cout." "Fair point," Christine agreed.

w outfit and Later, I changed into a new out grabbed a beige wool coat before heading out to dinner with Christine.

Christine had booked the restaurant. Having navigated the Marketing Department for years, she had a knack for these social gatherings. When we arrived, a waiter escorted us to a private room.

The room overlooked the river, offering a stunning view of the city lights reflecting off the water. The atmosphere was tranquil and classy, and the menu boasted authentic local cuisine.

Laura was already there. She greeted us warmly, quickly diving into conversation with Christine. "You two are familiar with our guest tonight, right? I've got a big project and I'm really looking to collaborate with their group. Put in a good word forlater okay?" Christine didn't beat around the bush. "Laura, is it the Ferguson Group?" "The Ferguson Group?" Laura frowned and gave Christine a playful glare. "Have you lost your mind? You and Ms. Webster just left the Ferguson Group. Why would they want to support a new brand that competes directly with their own?" So it wasn't the Ferguson Group. And it certainly wasn't Bryant.

I breathed a sigh of relief. If it were him, I'd have no choice but to refuse.

And that would mean missing out on another investment opportunity.

"Well, I overthought it." Christine, keeping my history with Bryant to herself, raised an eyebrow and probed, "So, spill the beans. Which company is it?" Laura was surprisingly open. "The RF Group, which just went public on the NYSE last month. Heard of them?" "AFT Christine sounded shocked. "You mean the one that emerged in New York and built a financial empire in just three years? That RF Group?" Her reminder jogged my memory.

The RF Group was known for its formidable wealth, having built a business empire in a short span, yet its enigmatic boss remained out of the spotlight.

Laura nodded. "Surprising, right?" "Are you serious? You've got us an investor like that?" Christine swallowed hard. "Is this restaurant classy enough? Who are we meeting?"

"Their Chief Executive Officer Laura the perfect smiled, then added, "But you've chosen the perfect spot. He's been abroad for years and just returned recently. He'll definitely appreciate the taste of hhere in RiverCity" Knowing who we were about to meet made both Christine anda bit nervous.

I squeezed Christine's hand. "It's okay. If they agreed to this dimen after seeing our profiles, they must see something in us." Although the RF Group seemed out of feach, it was worth a shot.

Who knows? Maybe we'd get lucky.

Even if it didn't work out, we had nothing to lose.

Soon, we heard the waiter's voice from outside. “Right this way, please." Chapter 266

Then the door opened, and standing there, besides the waiter, was a tall young man who appeared to be in his late twenties. He had sharp, striking features and a hint of mixed heritage, giving off a sophisticated yet youthful vibe
