Chapter 23 A Stunningly Luxurious Wedding

After Iwan gave Warrior No.1 the call, the two biggest forces in Pasoland City instantly braced themselves for Iwan's order. Dawson hastened to call Eden over. Any operation was suspended in Cleveland Group and all the top executives were called for an urgent meeting in the top conference room.

As the one in charge of the

biggest underground forces and most of the entertainment industries in this city, Eden ran Mellon Group, a leading enterprise only second to Cleveland Grou. It involved businesses like amusement parks, shopping malls, cinemas, Karaoke, night bars, and high-end clubs. But just like Cleveland Group, Mellon Group suspended all its operations and got all the top executives to rush to Cleveland Group's headquarters for the meeting.

When hundreds of top executives from different industries of both groups ended up filling the large conference room, those elites were greatly shocked since it was extremely rare for the two most powerful men in this city to attend the same meeting despite the rift between the two of them. So they all wondered what made it happen.

But what happened next made them even more shocked when the presidents of both groups, Dawson and Eden, followed a young man respectfully into the conference room. The moment Warrior No.1 showed up, all the elites were shocked again as a crazy guess that the top two groups in Pasoland City might have been merged into one popped into their heads. They were so confused about who the man was.

Even when Warrior No.1 took the seat of honor, both Dawson and Eden showed no discontent. Instead, the two of them seated themselves at his sides. Instantly, the large conference room which contained hundreds of people was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.

When all of them took their seats, Warrior No.1 said lightly to Dawson and Eden, "I've made it clear to you and you have to know whether your work is effective isn't up to me. I'll repeat it one more time. There's a grand wedding to be held on the fifteenth of next month with a budget of at least one hundred and forty million dollars. For this wedding, you need to pick one thousand couples from hundreds of cities in the Central Region and all their wedding expenses including the catering will be covered. But make sure all the couples are good-looking enough and exclude any frauds. There's only one hour for your discussion. An hour later, make sure the news is made public across Pasoland City and even the Central Region! Anyway, try to give the wedding a huge build-up. Well, that's all the instructions. Then you can start to work on the specific plans for it."

When he finished speaking, he sat there leisurely without any further advice. Although he was silent, his imposing manner which even permeated the air spoke for itself. He had a great presence that even overshadowed that of Dawson and Eden just by sitting there casually. As a top powerhouse in the world, Warrior No.1 was powerful enough to be a peerless force wherever he was and would only be humble in front of Iwan.

Hearing his words, Dawson and Eden hastened to nod respectfully as all the top executives present were shocked at the news.

At this point, one of the top executives of Cleveland Group in the middle of the room was bold enough to stand up suddenly and say to Warrior No.1, "Ex, excuse me, my wedding is scheduled for next month. So, could I ... could I sign up for it?" Despite his fear of Warrior No.1 who might be some powerful figure, he still made this bold move to hold a grand wedding for his beloved woman.

"Stop it! Were you allowed to speak? Get out of here!" Upon seeing him, Dawson instantly turned pale with fear as he hurriedly stood up and snarled. As for that top executive who was quite handsome, he was so scared that his legs felt weak.

"Mr. Gill, please ... please excuse me for it. I ... I'm getting out of here right now." The man was extremely scared by the fear in Dawson's eyes and was about to leave in a hurry.

"Wait," Warrior No.1 who had been silent said at this point.

Dawson was almost scared to death and immediately explained to him, "Mr. Warrior, I'm sorry for his rashness. Please pass over his stupid remarks."

The way Dawson condescended to plead with Warrior No.1 frightened the man even more. But Warrior No.1 just waved his hand, saying, "Well, it's fine. Since he's handsome enough and we've made no exclusion of insiders from the wedding, they should be given priority over any bonus. So you don't have to be so mean to your employees, Mr. Gill. Just include him in it and remember to allocate more resources to him on the wedding day."

Hearing that, Dawson instantly heaved a sigh of relief and looked back at the man, saying, "Shouldn't you thank Mr. Warrior for it?"

The man hurriedly thanked Warrior No.1 who just waved his hand and nodded with a smile. This incident made the atmosphere electric in the conference room. Among all the top executives present at the meeting, more than fifty of them planned a wedding for this year. They were greatly enthusiastic about the idea, so they worked out all the specific plans soon.

An hour later, a statement was issued on Cleveland Group's and Mellon Group's official websites. "The mysterious president schedules a grand wedding at Pasoland Cathedral with a budget of at least one hundred and forty million dollars a month later, the fifteenth of next month. For this wedding ceremony, 1314 couples from all the cities of the Central Region will be recruited to hold the wedding. Each couple included will get a 140 thousand dollars sponsorship for the wedding. All the wedding necessities, including jewelry and wedding outfits, can be purchased autonomously or provided by Cleveland Group or Mellon Group. No expense will be spared! Places are limited and volunteers are welcomed!" After the discussion between Dawson and Eden, they added another 314 couples whose sponsorships would be on the two of them since 1314 was a lucky number that represented their best wishes for a happy marriage.

Ten minutes after the statement was issued, it was scrolled on all the advertising boards in the city. Besides, some well-informed people learned soon that Pasoland Cathedral had been booked by the mysterious president for further decorations.

This upcoming luxurious wedding scheduled by the mysterious president was a great shock to everyone in Pasoland City. More than 140 million dollars would be used to sponsor 1314 couples' weddings and each couple would get a 140 thousand dollars sponsorship. People couldn't even imagine how spectacular this wedding would be. More importantly, the 140 million dollars only meant the sponsorships for those recruited couples and didn't include other expenses for the wedding. Given some couple's rough estimate, this wedding would cost at least one billion dollars.

Everyone in Pasoland City was astounded at the news and so were people from more than one hundred cities in the Central Region several minutes later. After all, it was so rare to see one spend so much money holding a wedding.

Subsequently, all the couples who were to be married from Pasoland City and other cities in the Central Region began to sign up for it. Any woman would find it too hard to resist the temptation to share such a grand wedding with this mysterious president with a 140 thousand dollars sponsorship. So the news caused a sensation across the Central Region.

At the same time, the Browns who were still in conversation also saw the news. Krista even screamed, "Oh my god, what a luxurious wedding!"

Then her eyes rolling, she said acidly as she looked at Jayna with contempt, "Well, Jayna, given what your boyfriend said just now, this should be the wedding he is going to hold for you, right? Wow, he must be rich enough to spend one billion on this wedding."

Aware of Krista's obviously sarcastic tone, Jayna shivered with embarrassment. She felt so helpless after Iwan's bragging to her family was immediately followed by the news that some mysterious rich man scheduled such a luxurious wedding for next month. Thinking of this, she couldn't even live with the overwhelming shame. She would never daydream that Iwan would be that mysterious rich man. It was just pie in the sky since Iwan was too poor to afford a phone himself when she met him five years ago. So she believed that Iwan couldn't even have an earthly chance of earning so much money in only five years.

But the truth was Jayna was wrong this time. If Iwan were here, he would scoff at Jayna's thoughts by saying, "I'm the mysterious rich man. Do you have a problem with it?" But it was a shame that he wasn't here.

"Enough already! Hasn't it been humiliating enough? Krista, stop talking about it anymore. Anyway, Jayna is your family. Why can't you act like an older sister?" William got angry since Jayna's affair humiliated him a lot.
