Ivanca
Henry Manor was built in 1799. The original owner was a capitalist. His family had become a wealthy family in the slave trade that lasted for a hundred years. At the peak of the family, Henry Manor was built.
Perhaps it was the cycle of nature. After the destruction of this family that had done evil things in the slave trade and the political struggle in the United States, they declined from then on. After that, they became worse and worse with each generation, and there were not many people left.
When the last member of the last generation of the family passed away, Henry Manor was auctioned off to pay off the debt. After a few rounds, it was finally bought by Pelant. He then pushed the manor back and spent a huge sum of money to rebuild it in the European style, which was how Henry Manor was today.
Being able to own a manor in New York was a manifestation of a family's prosperity and strength. For example, the families in the top ten consortiums had their own manors, such as the Rockefeller family, the Morgan family, etc., while those consortiums with joint stock systems had their own buildings, such as the headquarters of the Citicorp Bank and the Dupont Consortium.
In short, in New York, which was known as the heart of the world economy, this was a display of strength.
The car drove smoothly on the suburban road. Ye Nanfeng admired the night view on both sides of the road. Soon, they drove into a vast and magnificent manor and stopped in front of a European-style building.
"This is Henry Manor?"
After getting out of the car, Ye Nanfeng looked around. There were all kinds of luxury cars parked around him. One by one, noble ladies of society got out of the cars and entered the villa under the escort of the waiters.
There were many people who had gotten off the same car as him, but he noticed that none of them had a car that was higher than his.
"Mr. Ye Nanfeng?"
Just as Ye Nanfeng was about to follow the crowd into the villa, an excited voice sounded.
Ye Nanfeng heard someone calling his name and turned to look. Not far away, a blond man with a slightly plump figure and a comical appearance was walking quickly towards him.
Donald Pelant!
After seeing Ye Nanfeng's face and confirming that it was Ye Nanfeng himself, Pelant was overjoyed. He walked up and held Ye Nanfeng's hand, saying happily,""Mr. Ye, I didn't expect you to come to my ball. I'm really honored!”
Pelant's enthusiasm made Ye Nanfeng uncomfortable. He pulled his hand back and smiled.""Mr. Pelant, I don't think we've interacted before. Why did you invite me?”
Ye Nanfeng had never had any interaction with Pelant before. Today, he had suddenly received an invitation. He had come to attend because he wanted to see what Pelant was up to.
Hearing Ye Nanfeng's question, Pelant's expression did not change. He smiled and said,"" Mr. Ye Nanfeng is the youngest Nobel Prize nominator today. A few days ago, he spent 300 million yuan at the auction of 'Brilliant Stars' to keep a low profile for charity. How can I not know Mr. Ye? So I hereby invite you to the ball.”
"I originally thought that Mr. Ye wouldn't be interested in a ball of this level and wouldn't attend. I didn't expect you to actually show up. You've really given me a lot of face.”
Pelant's words were very humble, giving Ye Nanfeng enough face. His humble attitude made the surrounding guests, who were attracted by the commotion, look surprised.
"Isn't that Mr. Pelant? Why was he out of the villa? It seemed to be specially for receiving that young man?”
"It's not like, it's definitely! I saw Mr. Pelant waiting there for a long time. Who is this person to make Mr. Pelant receive him personally? Could he be the heir of a large financial family?”
"That person looks familiar…I remember now, he's that Ye Nanfeng! The person who had bid for the " Brilliant Stars " for 300 million the day before yesterday!”
"It's actually him! But even so, it was not worth Mr. Pelant's serious treatment.”
"What the hell."
…
The surrounding guests whispered about Pelant's behavior, and these voices made the blonde beauty on the second-floor balcony of the villa not far away frown.
This beautiful woman was tall, had a delicate face, and had a sexy figure. Unlike Su Mei, her sexiness carried a mature and mature older sister's style. Her long, slender, and fair legs were enough to make all men go crazy. God knew how seductive these beautiful legs would look if they wore black silk.
"Dad told me that the key person who can support him to become president is this man?”
The golden-haired beauty frowned at this scene and muttered to herself.
She was Donald Ivanka, Pelant's daughter.
Pelant had been married three times and had five children. The eldest daughter of his first wife, Ivanca, was his favorite. Her achievements were the highest among his five siblings. She was extremely capable and had already left Pelant's protection to take charge of her own affairs. She could even help her father a lot of times.
Before Ye Nanfeng arrived, Pelant had told Ivanka that if Ye Nanfeng came to the ball tonight, it would be the key to whether he could become the president! He hoped that she could build a good relationship with Ye Nanfeng.
However, Ivanka had secretly investigated Ye Nanfeng's background and found out that he was only the boss of a chip company and an entertainment company in China. He was just a university student. What was the big deal about his background? He couldn't even compare to the lowest level of her pursuers! So what if he was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Economics?
What she didn't know was that what she found out was only what others could find out about Ye Nanfeng. Who else in the world knew about his real background except for a few people?
"Dad is really old and muddle-headed. The financial resources needed for a presidential election are huge. This Chinese man is so young. How can he have the financial resources to support a presidential election?”
If Ye Nanfeng was outstanding enough to help Pelant, then Ivanka would be willing to give herself to him for Pelant's presidential dream. However, after seeing Ye Nanfeng's age, she did not have much hope.
Although she was reluctant to go down, this was her home. As Pelant's eldest daughter, she had to go down to receive the guests.
Downstairs, Pelant had already pulled Ye Nanfeng into the villa.
