Chapter 1203 Appearance
The ti went by quickly. Theo and Jeff had left the house while Ergene and the others did their jobs perfectly.
After a week, Theo returned to the mansion, preparing for the banquet that they were going to attend.
This ti, Theo, Isaac, and Rea would go together. Mark, Maya, and Patrick also followed suit because Theo finally made his move.
The news shook the country since they could finally witness the battle between two giant figures.
So people called him a coward because he never ca out this whole ti, to the point the Star Group had begun to collapse. So expected him to turn around the situation, wanting to know how he would defeat this new challenger. So didn't care much about the whole situation.
However, there were two people that actually cared about this. They were Lexie and Winston.
"What do you think about this news, Winston?" Lexie asked with a calm expression.
After the defeat, Winston had been very silent, so this was the first ti he finally talked to others again. "I'm going to the banquet."
"Are you sure about this? Others might think…"
"I know. If I'm aspiring to be the hero in everyone's eyes, I can't afford to show my face right now. However, I also have a heart of a Martial Artist. No matter what, I will watch the fight to its conclusion." Winston nodded with a serious expression.
"If you say so, then I'll accompany you."
Winston looked at Lexie for a while before lowering his head. "Thank you for doing all this, Lexie. Even though I've been ignoring you this whole ti."
"Haha, you're simply too focused on your training." Lexie chuckled. "I like your stubbornness."
Winston was stunned to see her smile this ti. It might be the first ti in his life that soone had enough patience to keep up with his bad attitude. Although she was forced by her family, no one would have this patience.
"Mhm… I'm really sorry for ignoring you this whole ti. I promise I'll make up for it." Winston lowered his head again.
"Is that so? I'm truly okay with it." Lexie smiled while waving her hands.
"Then, I also want to apologize for all my bad behaviors… I've truly treated you poorly. For that, I apologize."
"You're being weird right now, you know that?"
"I guess…" Winston smiled awkwardly.
"But I guess I'll accept your offer. I'll be waiting for you to show how you want to make it up to ." Lexie smiled gently.
Winston nodded with a serious expression. "After this banquet."
"Looking forward to it."
…
A few days passed by.
Theo wore a plain white shirt and long black pants covered by a huge cloak and mask that covered his hair and face.
Isaac wore short pants and a blue t-shirt as if they were going on vacation. On the contrary, Rea wore a sleeveless orange shirt and a white mini skirt.
With just a single glance, Theo knew that Rea was influenced by Isaac, thinking this was a vacation.
In the end, he let them go and picked up the other participants.
As they went toward the venue, Maya glared at Theo the whole ti.
"What?" Theo asked with a small smile.
"You must want to laugh at . Despite my confidence, I still couldn't fight back. Even now, the two companies are going to collapse soon." Maya looked at him coldly as if she was ready to be laughed at.
Theo shook his head calmly and replied, "There's no way I'm going to laugh at you. I truly respect you from the bottom of my heart. Look at you right now, you're the CEO of both the Star Group and the Starry Group… I can say that you're one of the most influential won in the world."
Maya clicked her tongue. She wanted to rebuke him, but Theo had been praising her this whole ti. In the end, she couldn't say anything and simply looked away to distract herself.
'This is surprising. Miss Maya has been contained with just a few praises… that should make her beco even more arrogant.' Patrick was surprised. 'Miss Maya said she would marry the person that could defeat her… it seems that marriage is going to happen soon, probably…'
The trip was silent because no one seed to be comfortable chatting in this situation. The company was in an awkward situation, so they didn't want to accidentally ntion it here.
After a few hours, they finally arrived at the sa mountain range where the arena and hotel were built to host this specific event.
As expected, there were already so many people inside the hotel. So even waited for the Star Group and the Starry Group to appear because they were the main attraction for this year's banquet.
Everyone wanted to see whether there was going to be another number one person in the Asda List.
Those who were swimming in the pool on the roof suddenly stopped and looked at the bottom.
"Hey, look at that!"
"The Star Group and Starry Group have arrived."
"It seems they're planning to settle this in one go."
"That's right. What will they do this ti?"
"I'm waiting for the challenge!"
From Isaac to Theo, they all started coming out of the car and entered the hotel.
"There it is! As expected, Joker is here. We're going to see sothing interesting this year."
"Maya's complexion is not that good. Well, it can't be helped. She's the one controlling both companies. She must have a hard ti."
"Isaac seems to be together with them."
"Yeah. And who is that girl? She's a foreigner?"
"Huh? Their group can't afford another Mythical Rank Expert to even have a foreigner Supre Rank Expert to co to protect them? I bet Joker is even stronger than her."
"But why do I feel like I have seen her sowhere… I can't rember."
The rumors of Theo's appearance started going around. It made everyone curious about this banquet, especially tonight.
Rachel, the woman who defeated Winston, would certainly challenge him tonight.
