It was the same kind of feeling as how those that do legal business do not respect those that got rich from illegal businesses. Both are rich, but the former looks at the latter full of contempt and disdain.
Saar and the other three bosses just loved the way these guys despised them yet had no choice but to call them over to negotiate.
Damn, that feeling was pretty satisfying.
