Chapter 677: You’re Mocking Me

In fact, Lucas really wasn’t sure who the current deputy general manager of the Solar Corporation was.

Previously, Lucas had left the entire Solar Corporation in Flynn’s hands. But just a short while ago, he sent Flynn to the Stardust Corporation Headquarters in DC. Thus, Flynn left the Solar Corporation to a subordinate he trusted.

But if the deputy general manager of Solar Corporation was Brian, Lucas felt that he really had to consider thoroughly and carefully review the organizational structure of the current Solar Corporation.

After hearing what Vanessa said, Charlotte had a trace of surprise appear on her face. She turned to look at Lucas with a tinge of doubt in her eyes, but she was smart enough not to voice her question out loud at this moment.

“So… he’s the deputy general manager of the Solar Corporation. That’s very impressive.” Charlotte could only give a perfunctory compliment.

But after hearing the compliment, Brian immediately puffed his chest up and said confidently and smugly, “It’s not too bad. It’s mainly because I’m quite outstanding and driven. Although I can only represent the Solar Corporation to attend the ordinary business exchange, I believe that in a few more years, I can definitely qualify with my own abilities to be invited to the Elite Business Exchange, a top event in the whole of California!”

“Wow, Honey, you’re really impressive! I’m sure you can do it! You’re still so young, and you’re already the deputy general manager of the Solar Corporation. Maybe you’ll be promoted to general manager soon. Afterward, you’ll continue growing step by step and eventually be invited to the Elite Business Exchange!” Vanessa hugged Brian’s arm and praised with admiration and joy written all over her face.

“…” Charlotte looked at their expressions and then at the silent Lucas. She was suddenly full of complicated emotions, and she even felt some sympathy for Vanessa and Brian.

If they found out that Lucas, standing right in front of them, was the chairman and true owner of the Solar Corporation, who could single-handedly decide Brian’s future career path and had already received an invitation to the Elite Business Exchange they longed for, she wondered how they would feel.

But seeing how elated and proud they were, Charlotte decided not to tell them the cruel truth.

“Oh, I guess you two probably still don’t know what the Elite Business Exchange is, right? It’s okay. Let me explain it to you!” Brian suddenly said, perhaps because he noticed the lack of awe in their reactions to his great ambitions.

Before Charlotte could decline, he had already started babbling non-stop.

“Generally speaking, only the top-tier families and forces in each city of California, such as the Coles, the Kingstons, and the Walkers of San Francisco, are invited to the Elite Business Exchange. These three are the top families in California, and they’re bound to participate in the Elite Business Exchange every year.

“Then you have the four major families that you people in Orange County are familiar with. They’re all powerful top-tier families, so they’re invited too.

“Of course, the Parkers of LA are even more outstanding this year. Initially, the Parkers and the Owens were the two major families of LA. But not long ago, the Owens were destroyed, leaving the Parkers alone to dominate. Now, their power has far surpassed that of most first-tier families and can almost compare to the top three giants of San Francisco.

“The Solar Corporation now belongs to the Parkers, who should be able to go further during this Elite Business Exchange. Hence, the Solar Corporation will definitely get a larger space for development, and we may even be able to expand to the San Francisco market in full swing!”

Brian was behaving like an experienced person as he rattled on and on about the matters of the top families in California.

But at the end, he shifted the topic back to himself because his main intention was to praise himself and brag about how impressive he was.

Unfortunately, the expression on Charlotte’s face remained indifferent, and she seemed to be completely uninterested, making Brian, who was determined to impress her, feel dejected and frustrated.

But what made him even angrier was that Lucas, next to Charlotte, didn’t show any envy or awe at his achievements either, and he even seemed to be smirking.

It was obviously just a very faint smirk, but Brian found it an eyesore and thought that Lucas was clearly mocking him.

“Why are you laughing? Do you think that what I said is ridiculous?” Brian suddenly snapped at Lucas angrily.

“Did I laugh at you?” Lucas asked innocently.

Although he really felt that Brian’s behavior was ridiculous and amusing, he had, in all fairness, shown Brian due courtesy by holding his laughter back and refraining from making any remarks.

“You’re still denying it, huh? You were clearly mocking me by smirking. What right do you have to mock me?” Brian hollered in exasperation.

He had just spoken to show off in front of Charlotte to make her realize how high his status was. But she was completely unfazed, and Lucas was even smirking, so he started venting all his anger on Lucas.

“I’m in a good mood now. Why can’t I smile?” Lucas raised his eyebrows, surprised by Brian’s reason.

“You weren’t smirking at any other time. But when I talked, you smirked. You clearly did it on purpose! Don’t think I don’t know what you’re really thinking!” Brian looked indignant. Those who didn’t know would probably think that Lucas had done something to him.

Of course, Vanessa stood on her boyfriend’s side, and she shouted at Lucas, “What are you?! How dare you mock my boyfriend? I’m afraid you haven’t even heard of the things he just said. He was kind enough to explain things in layman terms, but you mocked him. You’ve really gone overboard!

“Now, you must apologize to my boyfriend immediately!”

Charlotte instantly frowned.

She was initially in a good mood to suddenly meet Vanessa, her best friend from her high school.

But Lucas merely smiled and was rebuked by both Brian and Vanessa as if he had committed a heinous crime.

Why?

“Vanessa, when did Lucas ever mock your boyfriend? You’re saying that he mocked your boyfriend just because he smiled. That’s absurd! If you’re forcing him to apologize just because of such a ridiculous reason, I won’t allow it!” Charlotte said extremely sternly.

An aura of a superior emerged from her body, instantly making Vanessa feel overwhelmed by a domineering might.
