Their dispute attracted the attention of many people, who curiously stared at them.
In the banquet hall, John was conversing with another person with a glass of champagne in his hand when Dan his secretary suddenly came forward and whispered a few words into his ear. He immediately smiled and said "excuse me" to the other party before passing his glass of champagne to Dan and quickly leaving the banquet hall.
On the other hand, Serenity and Sam were still pestering Zander to persuade him into accepting their interview at the parterre located outside of the banquet hall.
Zander was very persistent in his attitude, which was making it very clear that there was no room for negotiation. Yet, faced with such a situation, his expression turned very sour and he was almost on the verge of losing it.
