"No, I'm not," Carlisle replied flatly, showing no interest in conversing with her.
Sensing Carlisle's displeasure, Sean didn't bother to stand up to greet Nina. Although Nina was a client, her
position as a director was lower than his, so Sean saw no need to introduce himself.
"Ms. Cambert, this is Mr. Woodsen from Alumni Network," Grey Swenson introduced Sean to Nina, smiling.
Grey was a manager in Hermeés' business department and was responsible for handling the advertising
collaboration with Alumni Network.
Nina raised her wine glass and smiled.
"Hello, Mr."
Sean sipped his red wine, avoiding eye contact with Nina. Nina smiled uneasily, feeling a bit awkward.

Grey frowned and said, "Mr. Woodsen, we're still your clients. Is this how you treat your clients?"
Seeing this, Isla stood up and smiled.
"Allowto introduce you. This is Carlisle Zahn, the chairman of Aurora Holdings.
"Since your company invited Mr. Zahn, you should know that Alumni Network is part of Aurora Holdings. As one
of the top international luxury brands, surely you, as a director, would understand basic social manners, no?"
"Oh my God. What a terrible attitude! | thought this country was known for its courtesy. Has no one ever told you
that the customer is always right? For heaven's sake, you'd better apologize to us now!" Grey exclaimed, glaring
at Isla.
Grey felt that Hermés deserved respect everywhere as a top international luxury brand, not provocation.
Before Isla could respond, Sean slammed a fist against the table and stood up, his expression darkening.
Glaring at Grey, he retorted loudly, "You're just clients, not gods, for crying out loud! Alumni Network would be
perfectly fine without you.
"And yes, our country is known for its courtesy, but respect goes both ways. If you can't show us some, don't
expect to get any in return. Being an international brand doesn't give you the right to have everything your
way!"
All of Hermes' collaborators were visibly impressed by Sean's and Isla's boldness. Despite their own displeasure,
none of them dared to offend Hermes, a top international brand and a dream partner for many in the industry.
Lethan was also fired up, but he couldn't help worrying about Alumni Network and Carlisle. After all, such actions
might lead Hermes to pull the plug on their advertising deal.
Nina quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, her eyes showing a hint of apology as she said, "Mr. Zahn
and Mr. Woodsen, | sincerely apologize for my lack of manners."
Grey looked at Nina in disbelief.
"Ms. Cambert, do you realize what you're doing? You're the representative of Hermes. You can't just "
"Shut up!" Nina snapped at Grey.
Noticing Riverland's governor, Sheldon, and his entourage entering the venue, Nina quickly said, "Please excuse
Sitting back down, Sean fumed.
"Carl, maybe we should end our partnership with Hermés. Their attitude is getting on my nerves!"
Carlisle sipped his red wine and replied, "Are you out of your mind? Hermes is an international brand that
everyone is dying to work with, yet you want to end our collaboration?"
Partnering with an international brand would not only enhance the company's image but also help expand its
market share. Moreover, it would allow them to learn cutting-edge technology and management skills, improving
product quality, service standards, and much
more.
It was like choosing between two bodyguards. One had experience protecting a local tycoon, while the other had
guarded a national figure. If both asked for the spay, most people would choose the one who had worked
with the national figure.
Hermes might have displayed a terrible attitude earlier, but they had apologized. Moreover, Grey was merely a
manager. He alone couldn't speak for the entire company.
