The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1011

The Draven Group was the largest antique consortium in the region. Seeking their assistance would be the most convenient and swift way to find what Joshua needed.

Once they were apprised of Joshua's quest, the Draven Group immediately sprang into action, and organized an event to gather an array of fine gemstones at the hotel for display, all to facilitate Joshua's search for that particular jade bead.

"It's alright. We'll organize another one when the opportunity arises." Richard said, taking the setback in stride. "Today would be just for Mr. Joshua and Lysander to catch up."

Richard, the suave young proprietor of the curio shop, was in his element when it came to brokering relationships between businessmen, a skill he had mastered.

"Ha, indeed." Joshua chuckled. "It's been a while since Lysander and I last met. I should pay a visit to your grandfather at the Sinclair estate someday."

Lysander, cloaking his typically frosty demeanor, raised his glass toward Joshua with a nod. "You're welcome anytime." he said.

"Ha, excellent." Joshua replied with a hearty laugh. He clinked glasses with Lysander and took a sip.

Lysander, breaking his usual custom of downing his drink in one gulp, also took a mere sip and set the glass down.

"We're out of drinks; I'll go fetch another bottle." Richard observed, ready to rise as the glasses emptied.

"Mr. Richard, allow me." Thalassa interjected, quickly standing. Without waiting for a response, she made her way to the door with such determination that Richard found himself settling back into his seat.

He continued to discuss with Joshua and Lysander the efforts being made at the cocktail party gathering to locate the jade pearls.

"Mr. Joshua, please rest assured. Now that the Draven Group is on the case, we will find it for you for sure." Richard assured him with confidence.

"I trust in your family's capabilities." Joshua responded.

Lysander inquired, "Are these pearl of great importance to you, Mr. Joshua?"
