Someone as prestigious as Mr. Rodman Sear, when he met Lucas Quinn, treated him with the utmost respect in the Western manner.
"Young sir, I'm very pleased to have the opportunity to meet you here in Kingstown. The old gentleman..."
"Cut the crap, I'm here to ask if Charlotte Allison is looking to collaborate with you?" Lucas stretched his legs lazily on the chair, hands behind his head, looking both impatient and feral.
If anyone else had behaved this way before Mr. Rodman Sear, they would surely be seen as disrespectful and promptly thrown out.
But this was the "young sir" he referred to, and seeing him was already an unexpected gain.
Realizing the inquiry was about Charlotte Allison, Mr. Rodman Sear was a bit surprised but answered respectfully and honestly.
"Yes, Miss Allison hopes to collaborate with the Sear Group."
"Did you agree?" Lucas stared at him, ready to explode if he heard a 'no'.
"Miss Allison's proposal was such that I couldn't say no," Mr. Rodman said.
