Chapter 60: The Reality
At Lancaster Global Holdings,
The headquarters of Lancaster Global Holdings towered like a fortress of power. The silence echoed like authority. Every inch of it whispered control. And an entrance that doesn’t welcome, but warns.
Walking into one of the most prestigious and powerful office buildings, Henry didn’t flinch even without an appointment and without an assistant beside him.
He seamlessly fetched his wallet from his blazer and flicked out his card. Standing in front of the receptionist, he said, "I don’t have an appointment with Chairman Lancaster."
The receptionist was about to apologize and refuse him, but the logo on the card caught her attention. She flipped it, her eyes narrowing at the name.
Immediately, she donned a professional smile. "Sir, please wait while I make a call."
Henry merely nodded and sat on the couch. He thanked the one who served him water and refused the coffee.
In less than two minutes, the same receptionist appeared before him. "Chairman Laurent, let me guide you to Chairman Lancaster’s office."
....
The top floor,
Henry walked in like he owned the place. The complex emotions he carried earlier were long gone. Now he looked cold and authoritative, just as much as the man sitting behind the desk.
