"But the strength behind this person is quite formidable, to be able to coerce so many companies."
Following George Robbins’ words, a few others chid in agreeably.
"But right now, there isn’t a company completely opposed to our group."
One shareholder questioned: "In the fashion industry today, our Riley Group is considered a top-tier company. Across Druarus, only a handful of companies can truly compete with us."
These remarks sparked a wave of discussion among the attendees.
Yet Justin Battleson remained silent, quietly observing everyone present.
At this mont, Justin’s assistant Michael Richard knocked on the door and entered, drawing the attention of everyone in the room.
Michael approached Justin directly and whispered sothing in his ear.
Upon hearing it, Justin’s gaze flickered with a profound aning. "Has the person arrived?"
Michael nodded slightly toward Justin.
"Let them wait for now," Justin instructed, and Michael replied affirmatively before turning and leaving.
George Robbins spoke up at this mont, addressing Justin: "Mr. Battleson, has sothing happened?"
"The person in charge of Worsen reached out to and expressed interest in collaborating with our company." Justin replied calmly.
"Worsen? I’ve heard of them before. It’s an erging brand in Ashton, with a fair bit of recognition there," George Robbins said, visibly surprised.
"Mr. Robbins is correct. That’s indeed the erging brand," Justin nodded.
"This is excellent news. Our company has been lacking collaboration opportunities recently. I didn’t expect Worsen to actively propose this partnership—it’s truly a godsend!"
George’s face instantly lit up with joy as he eagerly asked: "Mr. Battleson, judging by your earlier words, it seems the representative from Worsen has already arrived here, correct?"
"That’s right. The representative is currently in the lounge."
"Mr. Battleson, this is a trendous opportunity for our group! I think we shouldn’t delay any longer. Signing the partnership agreent with Worsen should be our top priority."
George spoke as he shifted his gaze toward the other shareholders, his words subtly urging them.
Those shareholders who were closer to George imdiately echoed his sentints.
It seed that, in the eyes of these individuals, no matter what George said, their ultimate response would always be agreent.
Justin observed this scene silently, then leaned back into his seat. One hand rested lightly on the armrest, as he spoke in a low tone.
"However... I find this situation sowhat unsettling."
"Mr. Battleson, how is it unsettling? This clearly is a fantastic opportunity," George imdiately pressed for clarification.
"Indeed, it’s a great opportunity. But doesn’t anyone find it a bit too coincidental?"
Justin paused, then slowly scanned the room, his gaze passing over the faces of everyone present.
"Our group has recently experienced a wave of forced contract terminations from several partners, causing significant disruptions. And now Worsen steps forward at this exact mont, offering collaboration. Setting aside the potential profits this partnership might bring us, if Worsen ends up like the others and reneges on the contract down the line, we won’t be able to bear the consequences."
