Chapter 63: Attending a high-class banquet

"Forget it, it's not a good thing to be too obsessed with controlling other people's minds. After all, this world ultimately depends on strength."

If Rumlow has the strength to resist, verbal orders are nothing, he would dare to tear up contracts written in black and white.

It’s not that you’re not as strong as others, you have to admit defeat if you’re cheated!

Carl shook his head and turned around and left the living room, intending to talk to Wanda about attending the party tonight.

12 noon, lunch time.

Carl and Wanda, still handsome in suits and ties, sat across from each other in the restaurant on the first floor of the manor.

The maids one after another brought high-end Western food dishes that were delicious, delicious, and delicious to the table.

Wanda was wearing a luxurious light red evening dress. She looked a little uncomfortable, especially the restraints on her chest made her feel very uncomfortable.

She had never worn such clothes as the ladies of the upper class would wear.

It was only when she attended a high-class party that she was ready to adapt to the feeling of wearing an evening dress.

The reason why they attended the business party was that Carl wanted to go out and relax, and he was preparing to build a reputation as a private hospital at the party.

The soft candlelight shines on the faces of Carl and Wanda, and the aroma slowly fills the air, creating a warm atmosphere and a sense of home.

"My dear, do you have hemorrhoids? Are you unable to sit still?"

Karl, the steely straight man, ruined the warm atmosphere at the dinner table as soon as he opened his mouth.

Wanda brushed her hair around her ears, and while trying to adjust her sitting posture, she said with embarrassment and anger:

“You really can’t stand and talk without hurting your back, and I don’t want to be embarrassed at the party tonight.

If you don't adapt well now, if something happens tonight, it won't be your face. "

Karl said with an indifferent attitude: “Don’t pay too much attention to this kind of high-class gathering.

Those so-called high-level elites look like shit on the surface, but you can't even imagine the dirty things they do behind the scenes.

What's more, with the famous name of the umbrella right there, who dares to look down on us?

My dear, just treat it as attending an ordinary party. There is no need to force yourself to do things you don't like just to save face. "

Nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to give up!

Now that Carl said so, Wanda was too lazy to continue adapting to this evening dress that was uncomfortable no matter how she sat.

She let go of her cautious posture, picked up her fork and stabbed the Angus steak in front of her hard, but couldn't help but sigh:

"You don't understand. Even if others don't dare to mock me openly, they might mock me behind my back for being a bumpkin from the countryside."

Carl tasted the exquisitely presented salmon pudding with California walnut salsa.

"Ahem."

Complex flavors explode in your mouth.

Karl almost couldn't help but spit it out, and quickly drank a sip of honey grapefruit tea to calm down his shock.

Even though he has eaten high-end Western food for several years, he still feels uncomfortable with it.

Carl called the maid to remove the unpalatable dish, then tried a bite of Angus steak and found that it tasted pretty good.

While eating meat with a very bold attitude, he comforted:

"Believe it or not, those ladies and ladies who like to gossip will only exclaim, "Oh, Mr. Carl's unrestrained and uninhibited look is so charming when they see my 'ugliness'!"

If you think about it, if Tony went to a party in his pajamas, others would just think he was unique.

This shows that when you reach a certain social status, no matter how ugly your appearance is, others will only think that you like to be unconventional. "

After listening to Karl's big talk, Wanda went straight in one ear and out the other, not paying attention to what he said at all.

And it’s difficult for normal people to completely care less about other people’s opinions.

Wanda was silent for a while, then suddenly realized: "I understand, wouldn't changing to a larger-sized evening dress solve the problem? I'm so smart!"

Speechless Karl: "You are so smart!"

7 p.m., the famous St. Regis Hotel in Manhattan.

A luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom arrived at the hotel door.

The two doormen hurried forward to help open the car door. Carl and Wanda got out of the car and walked into the hotel door with a calm look.

When the lobby manager on the first floor of the hotel saw the two distinguished guests Carl and Wanda arriving, he quickly stepped forward to greet them and invited them to the banquet hall with his head bowed.

Take the high-speed elevator to the 31st floor and arrive at the magnificent banquet hall.

Karl saw many well-dressed elite men drinking and chatting with socialites wearing elegant evening gowns and diamond jewelry.

Today Wanda wore a carefully selected orange-red evening dress, which just showed off her graceful curves.

Coupled with her young and beautiful appearance and a faint hint of snow-white deep outline.

As soon as she appeared on the stage, she attracted the greedy eyes of many men.

Karl frowned when he saw this. These guys really didn't even bother to show off. Are they so rude and staring at a lady?

Fortunately, just before Karl was about to get angry.

The host of tonight's banquet, the chairman of the Osborne Group, old Norman Osborne, who was elegant and elegant in a black suit, came to the rescue.

"Hey! Look who's here?

Umbrella CEO Carl Davis.

There is also this charming female companion brought by Mr. Carl. I am honored that you are willing to come to this banquet. "

Everyone at the banquet couldn't help but look surprised when they heard the magical name of Umbrella.

In New York's upper class, the outrageous things done by Umbrella have long been spread throughout this top circle.

Most people turned their heads quickly, not daring to look at Carl and the others for fear of offending this famous "death" businessman.

Except for some people standing in the corner, their eyes lit up and they were eager to find an opportunity to come forward and talk.

"Mr. Norman, thank you very much for your willingness to promote the private hospital of Umbrella."

Carl exchanged a few polite words with old Norman, and then took Wanda to the corner of the banquet hall.

This party was held by Carl with the influence of old Norman, with the purpose of promoting private hospitals.

After all, the Osborne Group is the world's largest biomedical consortium, with a market value of more than 270 billion US dollars.

With old Osborne coming out to support, the credibility will be higher.

Of course, this kind of help is definitely not free. In addition to owing a favor, some interests must be exchanged.

But these are minor issues. As long as the reputation of the fully automatic medical platform Medpod can be made a hit, everything is worth it.

Wanda was a little reserved as she followed Carl like a tail.

After all, she didn't know any of the ladies around her, and seeing that everyone was keeping a distance from her, she didn't want to rush to communicate with others.

Carl gently held Wanda's hand and comforted her: "Relax, maybe you can go and talk to some people of your age. There's a young girl over there who seems to be very interested in you."
