Chapter 1169 Regretting It
However, there were always some stubborn, slick old folks in the Chamber of Commerce who refused to budge.
What happened last time was a good example of this. Daryl thought the other party, who was money–crazed, would surely agree. But after he arrived, although he drank quite a bit of wine, they didn’t discuss any business at all.
It took Daryl two days of hangover to realize he had been fooled. That cunning old man!
Daryl looked at the screen, refocused, and continued, “Mr. Yarwood, it’s not just Hawford’s company now. Even the Winston family from Kingbourne is considering collaboration with Mrs. Yarwood.
“If you have any concerns, you can tell me. However, there’s an old saying in Cascadia–time and tide wait for no man. I hope you consider carefully, as the risks sole proprietors face will be considerable.”
As Dalton listened to these words, he remained completely impassive. He even extended his arm to make Wynter more comfortable.
The attendant looked on with envy before she asked softly, “Dinner for one, sir?”
Dalton nodded. Still sporting a Bluetooth earpiece in his left ear, he signaled the
attendant to bring him a cup of tea, polite yet distant.
The attendant had spent enough time in the business–class cabin to encounter
countless guests.
Rich people were often successful in their careers but generally out of shape. Plus, as if dreading others not knowing how big their business was, some bosses would speak loudly on the phone/disturbing everyone.
And then there were the very delicate ones who bullied the weak and cowered in the presence of someone more powerful. If someone walked by, they would complain, claiming it affected their sleep.
There were many such typés, of course, and also many guests with excellent

manners.

But men like Dalton were indeed rare.
At first glance, he looked like a new movie star in his meticulously tailored suit.
However, his aristocratic air revealed it wasn’t something cultivated overnight.
Even so, he was young. With his sharply defined features, he was handsome and noble in a way that seemed out of place in this era. Whether reading or looking up, he
maintained a low–key demeanor.
The other gentleman who came with him was similar. They were clearly raised with excellent manners, though their presences differed. The woman with them sure was
fortunate!
As the attendant marveled, Dalton raised an eyebrow at Daryl’s remark. Setting down
his book, he glanced over, his deep gaze entrancing.
“Do you think I’m here to negotiate with you?”
His tone was casual, as if he was discussing an ordinary matter.
Daryl was taken aback.
Dalton pressed the number 1 key. “Notify all ships under the Yarwood Group to cease trading at Port Victoria in favor of the opposite port. After all, our incentives
differ.”
Daryl hadn’t expected Dalton to have his threat countered.
Ships under the Yarwood Group frequently docked, supporting numerous local jobs beyond a mere few individuals.
If the Yarwood Group changed ports, Angelica would definitely admonish him!
“Mr. Yarwood, let’s talk it out. I didn’t mean that. I’m not very fluent in Cascadian. Please don’t act rashly.” He tried to persuade Dalton to reconsider.
However, Dalton wouldn’t give him the chance.
The convenience of landing ports indeed affected costs.
It seemed that, with the Yarwood family staying out of direct action, even Angelica

had grown bold and was attempting to use import and export trade as leverage in
recent years.
