Gareth was ruthless anyway. So, why should | be kind to him.
River was still standing on the stage. His mouth tilted slightly. “Everyone used to talk about cooperating with each other at such events. So today, | will create a fast track for everyone. | have prepared a board.” Aboard? Everyone was puzzled. After River waved his hand, two tall women pushed the board out.
Lots of white stickers were neatly pasted on the board to cover the words written on it.

What is River trying to do? Elisa pursed her lips as she already knew that her name was on the board.
“To be fair, we have both men and women’s name on the board. As we aren't sure about the names of all female companions, we have written down the names of their partner. For example, ‘Mr. Gareth’s female companion’. Later on, | will randomly open up a white sticker. The person whose name is called will need to come up the stage. After he or she is done, they will open up another white sticker and call the person up. Of course, you don’t have to come up the stage if you don’t want to.” Everyone was still confused and couldn't truly understand what River meant. So, they asked, “What are we going to do on stage?” “Just listen carefully. Since it is a fast track for us, maybe it's something we have hoped for.” Everyone was looking forward to the game. River smiled and continued, “After coming up to the stage, you may talk about the development of your company, your future plans for your company, any deals that you would like to negotiate, or any of your wishes. It's open communication, so everyone should have fun. | will randomly select five lucky guests among those who came on stage and provide help.” Everyone was completely stunned! Why is the Morris family investing so much this year? Five lucky guests! Those local tyrants wouldn't be moved if this game was put on in other events, but it won't be the same case when it was organized by the Morris family. A small help from the Morris family could be a hundred million agreement! Besides, this fast track was really convenient! One of their purposes of coming to the birthday banquet was to be able to curry favor with the people they wanted to form a partnership with! There were so many people at the scene. The people that they wanted to curry favor with might also be busy currying favor with someone else.
That was why being given a chance on stage was a great opportunity for them indeed! Everyone was looking forward to the game and couldn’t wait to be the first to be picked by River! River chuckled as he saw everyone's reaction, “How is it? Is it a great surprise?” Someone in the audience held up his champagne glass and tried to propose a toast to River.
At the same time, Mr. Morris, who was sitting near the stage, took over the microphone and said happily, “No matter how far you are or how busy you are, you guys have always come to celebrate my birthday with me. | will always remember our friendship in my heart. Today, it's my pleasure to be able to repay one or two of you. | hope that no one will feel bored today.” Although Mr. Morris was a high-ranking businessman, he had always been very easy-going. Everyone was really grateful to be able to cooperate with him! River was already standing in front of the board. He raised his hand and said, “Since everyone's ready, I'll open the first sticker.”
