The sky above was clear as Linwei Ding, tall and imposing dressed in a tailored sharp black coat, stepped out of his car and into the grand lobby of the Emerald Hotel, one of the finest establishments located in the heart of USL.
His aura of sophistication matched his refined appearance and steely gaze. He moved with the quiet confidence of a man well accustomed to power while being followed by his discreet entourage of guards.
His keen and observant eyes took in the lavish surroundings before settling on a figure awaiting in the room to greet him.
Steven Hook, CEO of Pears Inc., stood watching his rival approach, a faint, predatory smile playing on his lips. As Linwei drew closer, Steven broke the silence, his tone cool and edged with calculated politeness. "So, you're finally here, Mr. Linwei."
