Under the attentive service of the front desk lady, Lott got on the elevator smoothly and arrived at the top floor.
It was the place where the company's directors had converged to discuss important matters.
The front desk lady stopped here. She was not qualified to linger any longer here.
Next was the director's assistant to receive Lott.
The front desk lady gritted her teeth at this time. She stuffed her contact information into Lott's pocket.
The people who came here were rich and powerful.
It was the quickest way for the front desk lady to get in touch with the top level of the glamorous metropolis.
Lott smiled at her. He had suppressed a lot of things in the past five years.
No man could resist the one who first came to his door. However, Lott was a man who knew his priorities.
The most important thing now was the next deal.
'Let's put the women aside for now and send each other off with a smile.'
Lott looked up at the conference room on the top floor.
There was already a crowd there.
Lott saw right away who he was looking for today.
Schubert, the director of the real estate group.
Schubert was extremely resourceful. From a small estate company, he had successfully grown it into the huge Chicago real estate group today.
Not only was it a strong company, but it was also one of the top 10 companies in Chicago.
Unfortunately, with the rise of the Ian Family, Schubert's life became more difficult.
Not only did his market share continue to shrink, his profits also continued to decline every year.
The real estate group, which was controlled by Schubert, was beaten down. Even now, it was losing a lot of money.
It was because the Chicago Corporation knew Schubert's company strategy every single time.
Needless to say, this kind of confidential information must be leaked out to the Ian Family.
Recently, the company's directors had been investigating who the mole was.
Schubert swore that he would not spare the mole once he was!
This was something that only a few people knew as the investigation was going on secretly.
However, to Schubert's surprise, a young man claimed today that he knew who the mole was.
It made Schubert take it seriously. The people who knew about it were people he trusted so it could not have been leaked.
Schubert wanted to know who it was.
Top of the 38th floor of the Chicago real estate building, bodyguards in black suits lined up in the room.
When they saw Lott in the conference room, they turned their glances to him.
These bodyguards were even more exaggerated than the ones Ica from the Chicago Corporation had hired.
This was not any ordinary protection.
However, Lott was not surprised.
This was the key to the survival of the group.
Sending more people to protect oneself was responsible for oneself.
When Schubert saw Lott appear at the door of the meeting room, the bodyguards first went forward to scan and check Lott's body.
Lott naturally cooperated because even if he wanted to hide any weapon that he had, he would make sure that the other party would not find it.
Schubert's personality was very strong.
The other party took all the initiatives in his hands by saying that he knew the mole.
Naturally, Schubert was not satisfied.
In the business world, whether it was from a personal or interest point of view, being led by the nose was a very dangerous thing.
Therefore, there were bodyguards standing in a row, staring at each other, and examining Lott's entire body.
This was a suppression against Lott, but also a test.
Schubert wanted to use these behaviors to test Lott's reaction. This way, in the following conversation, he would know the other party's temper, so as to grasp the situation of the matter.
Schubert was not afraid of confrontation, but he was afraid of not knowing his opponent.
In front of the director's office.
Although Lott raised both of his hands, he still had a confident expression on his face. The dull and tense atmosphere did not make him feel uneasy.
At this moment, the bodyguard had finished their inspection.
One of the bodyguards pushed Lott out forcefully with his hand.
The bodyguard wanted to let Lott make a fool of himself first to create a psychological advantage.
As if he had predicted it, Lott's left shoulder deflected the force, directly ignoring the opponent's attack, and slowly walked into the hall.
All of this was seen by Schubert.
'He didn't come with good intentions...'
Schubert saw that Lott's expression was not affected in the slightest.
Schubert's psychological evaluation toward his opponent had suddenly increased by one level.
At this time, Schubert, who was wearing a suit with a meticulous and exquisite appearance, came in front of Lott.
Although Schubert was facing the unknown danger, he still maintained his dignity. Behind him was his assistant.
Lott stood in the center.
Receiving everyone's gaze, with a relaxed smile on his face, those who did not know would think that the director here was actually Lott.
...
"I know you, young man."
Schubert saw Lott's reaction and suddenly said.
After the dull voice sounded, Schubert looked meaningfully at Lott who was standing in front of him.
"You were the one who did those things to Ian and Ica, right?"
Schubert paused.
The atmosphere in the office suddenly became tense.
As a real estate company that dominated a region in Chicago, especially Schubert who had been keeping tabs on the Ian Family every day, naturally, he knew something.
Perhaps Lott himself did not realize that some of his information had already been passed around among the big shots in Chicago.
Of course, ordinary upper-class people still had no access to the truth about the Ian Family.
These big shots were not omnipotent.
They did not pay much attention to Lott at first.
However, since last night, the big shots in Chicago's top circles who were constantly investigating Ian and Ica's cases had hit a wall.
The reason was that the information about the people they were investigating had been blocked and was put on a high level of confidentiality.
This shown that in this case, the special services had taken action.
Although the special services did not say it, their actions had proved otherwise.
All of Chicago's top brass knew that Lott was a big problem.
Lott had become famous overnight.
'I don't know why he went up against the Ian Family but the situation is clear. The enemy of your enemy is your friend.
'Your enemy is the Chicago Corporation.'
It just so happened that Lott's enemy was the Chicago Corporation.
That meant they had a chance to work together.
Lott's identity was unquestionable.
If an ordinary person dared to impersonate Lott, what awaited him would definitely be endless enemies and assassinations.
Faced with Schubert's question, Lott shrugged, neither admitting nor refuting.
"I'm here today to discuss another business deal."
Lott naturally knew the other party's current situation through the search results. His identity had been confirmed.
Next, it was time to talk about the price.
"One piece of information for ten million."
Schubert extended a finger in front of Lott.
"And it must be verified on the spot!"
Hearing this, Lott nodded his head in satisfaction.
"You want to know who the mole is?"
Lott looked at Schubert with a smile.
