Chapter 0381
“Alexander!”
As soon as Roslyn left, Coral closed the door and rushed to Alexander’s side with a grin on her face.
“My cousin is in the shower. Tell me your secret. I promise I won’t tell my cousin. Is that woman
interested in you?”
Alexander’s face turned pale, and he slowly raised a finger. “One word of nonsense, and your
salary will be halved.”
Coral stuck out her little tongue and tried to cover her giggle with a hand over her mouth. She was not
threatened at all. “It seems to be a one–sided feeling on the part of the woman. I can be at ease for my
cousin!”
She chuckled and looked earnestly at Alexander. “Say, are you going to the gathering tomorrow with
my cousin? Can you take me with you? I want to join in the fun too!”
It was a simple request, so Alexander smiled and nodded. “Okay.”
Eminence Palace International Hotel was located in the most prosperous business district in the middle
of Zabaleta, where every inch of land was gold.
The minimum spending for a meal at the hotel was an astonishing 420 dollars, and the slightly more
luxurious private rooms started at 1500 dollars per meal. Still, the Saunders family had generously

The Saunders family spared no expense as it was a great opportunity for them to make friends with
Alexander. The Saunders family had used their connections with the bigwigs in the Zabaleta to invite
almost half of the known bigwigs in the entire Zabaleta to the gathering..
“Arnold, today’s banquet is very important, especially the security of the event. Nothing can go
wrong.”
In the hotel lobby, Roslyn looked at her cousin, Arnold, and solemnly declared, “I don’t care what you’re
up to usually, but you have to be on your toes tonight. The VIP I have invited here tonight has the
power of life and death over the Sounders family.”
“Is he that powerful?” Arnold kept his hair very short and usually looked a little flippant. He was
shocked to hear Roslyn’s warning and asked, “Say, what’s the name of this VIP? Out with it. I can’t
afford to slip up!”

Roslyn nodded and said softly, “His name is-”
“Arnold!”
A loud laugh came through the door of the hall. A red–haired young man in a casual suit waved his
hand to Arnold from a distance. “Aren’t you coming to greet me?”
“I wondered who it was. It’s you, Malvin!”
Arnold’s mood greatly improved at Marvin’s presence. He turned to Roslyn and said, “Look, I know
you’re busy. Go on and leave everything in the hall to me. Don’t worry, I’ll take very good care of your
distinguished guest!”
With that, Arnold ran toward Malvin without waiting for Roslyn to answer.
“Arnold… Hey!”
Roslyn watched Arnold’s back as he disappeared quickly. She shook her head helplessly. She turned
and walked to the lift beside her, lamenting silently in her heart. ‘I haven’t told him the name of the
distinguished guest yet. He is Alexander Kane!‘
“Has Roslyn gone upstairs?”
Arnold and Malvin saw that Roslyn left in the elevator and they bumped fists. They held out their hands,
pointed behind them, and said with big smiles on their faces, “Look who it is!”
Ah, the boys.
There were a total of seven or eight young misters, all of whom were the rich second generations who
usually hung out with Arnold. Of course, there was also Levi Locksong, arm–in–arm with Arnold. He
kept whistling at the young girls who entered the hall.

Although Arnold was a flippant man, he had not forgotten his important assignment from Roslyn. He
waved his hand at several young misters and said, “Roslyn told me that an important man would be
here tonight. Hey, Levi, I saw your father go upstairs. Would you like to go up and say
hello?”
Levi’s face turned dark, and a ball of fire lit up in his heart.
He recalled the recent incident with the concert tickets when his father had almost disowned him.
Besides, Wayne was invited to the banquet, but Levi was not. Had it not been for his good relationship
with Arnold, he would not have been able to attend the event at all.
“Levi, come and talk to us.”

“I heard that you suffered a loss yesterday and lost three hundred million dollars. Who was the guy who
dared to do that to you, Mister Locksong?”
Levi gritted his teeth and reluctantly admitted, “Yeah.”
He was about to say something when he spotted some people out of the corner of his eye who had just
entered the hall. His eyes lit up.
“It’s them!”
