Chapter 1112
Jasper and Alyssa might have only exchanged glances without a word, but everyone felt
the affection between them. No words were needed when two people were in love. The
way they looked at each other and their actions were proof.
Victor frowned and turned to Winston, who appeared equally troubled.
Alyssa grumbled at Jasper, “Fine! I don’t care. You’re an ATM yourself, so bet however
much you’d like.” She turned away with a faint smile.
Meanwhile, Jameson was fuming because he had been ignored. Jasper noticed the change
on Jameson’s exquisite face, giving off a devilish feeling.
Instead of feeling triumphant, Jasper worried that Jameson might be scheming again, and
he didn’t want to see Alyssa hurt. So, he closely followed behind her, offering her
protection, as dependable as a rock
The tycoons had placed their bets by now. Landon didn’t bet on th Becketts’ or the Taylors’
horses. He took Lauren’s suggestion and be on a shiny racehorse that didn’t seem very
competitive, all because it was good-looking.
For young ladies like Lauren, appearance mattered the most, even if it came to horse or
car selection.
Feeling upbeat, Landon generously bet 20 million dollars on horse number 14. As he was
rich, he could place a bet of any amount he wished. The 20 million was nothing, as long as
he could make Lauren happy.
Javier stood beside the Jesseltons with a smile and questioned, “Mr. Ezzo, would you be
interested in placing a bet?”
“I am, but betting on horses isn’t just entertainment for me. It’s an investment,” replied
Ezzo, who looked at the spacious racecourse through the binoculars.
He added, “I’m looking for a well-bred horse. I assume the owner of a well-bred horse
would be equally capable in business as well.”
Javier frowned. From Ezzo’s tone, he seemed ready to select a new business partner. This
was after the Beckett Group had signed an agreement with Jesselton Incorporated. Next
year, they would build a commercial complex in the biggest city of Mosgravia, and the
preparations were complete.
Javier wondered if Ezzo was seeking a new business partner in Solana City for other
business partnerships.
Ezzo chuckled. “As you all might know, the Mosgravian flag carries the drawing of a horse.
Horses hold significance beyond mere luck in our culture. From royalty to the working
class, our people harbor a collective enthusiasm for equestrian sports.
“That is why our company decided in a meeting last month to find at partner among the
well-known companies in your nation. We plan on building four five-star hotels in
Mosgravia and Cyrris that will offer entertainment and equestrian facilities.”
He added, “We’ve done some market research. We might not be the pioneer of building
such hotels in Mosgravia, but so far, there is no such hotel in Solana City. If we could
introduce these hotels to large. cities like Solana City, I believe it will attract considerable
attraction and generate huge business returns.”
Ezzo wrapped up his speech proudly with a smile. As he was chatting loudly with Javier,
the business magnates around him overheard the idea.
Victor and Cornelius looked keen and ambitious. If one of them could
in Solana City, as the Becketts would not be monopolizing the scene. Anyone running a
business would be interested in expanding their market share.
Similarly, Javier rolled his fist and seemed interested in the project, though he was upset
that Ezzo did not pitch the partnership to the Becketts. After all, the Becketts had secured
a partnership with the Jesseltons.
Still, he understood the reason behind Ezzo’s strategy of partnership diversification.
