1088: Connor is Mr. McDonald?

Connor is Mr. McDonald?

"Who is this Connor McDonald?"1

Arthur looked at the information in front of him with a puzzled expression.

He could vaguely feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what, and he felt very uncomfortable as a result.

The man hesitated for a moment and said softly to Arthur, "Mr. Synder Jr., I also heard something about this Connor!"

Arthur hurriedly looked up and asked excitedly, "What is it?"

"I heard that when Connor McDonald was studying in Porthampton, he came into conflict with Harold Phillips and Jovan Lambert. However, I'm not very sure about the specifics..." the man said slowly.

"Harold Phillips and Jovan Lambert?"

When Arthur heard the names of these two people, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Although Arthur, Harold, and Jovan were both known as the four rich heirs, the current Arthur was no longer someone that Harold and the others could compare to.

Harold was fine, but Arthur did not bother to contact Jovan at all. In his eyes, people like him were wastes of space that only ever ate, slept and fooled around. They would never amount to anything great, thus he had no use for them.

Harold was a little better; after all, Harold was destined to walk the path of the military in the future. He was still somewhat helpful to Arthur.

"I'll give Harold a call later and ask him what's going on!" Arthur said in a low voice after hesitating for a moment.

"Yes!"

The man nodded.

However, at this moment, footsteps came from upstairs, and a man in pajamas came down. 

After Arthur saw the man, he hurriedly stood up and greeted him respectfully.

"Dad, you're awake?"

"Arthur, hurry up and pack up. The two of us will go and see Mr. Canto…" Arthur's father, Jeremiah Synder, said expressionlessly.

Arthur was a smart person. After hearing Jeremiah's words, he realized that something was wrong and hurriedly asked, "Dad, is there something wrong with the open space in Yarnton?"

"Yes. Our company had already bid for that piece of land and was ready to handle the handover procedures, but now someone wants to compete with us for it. Moreover, just yesterday, Mr. Canto suddenly changed his mind and said that the procedures were insufficient for the handover," Jeremiah said.

"This…"

When Arthur heard this, he was instantly stunned. The expression on his face was flustered.

"Dad, that piece of land is very important to us. If we can't take that piece of land, our losses will be very terrifying…" he hurriedly said.

"Of course I know. Otherwise, I wouldn't be in such a hurry!" Jeremiah said lightly.

"Who is this person? How dare he compete with us? Could it be a provincial real estate company?" Arthur hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice.

"No…"

Jeremiah shook his head and continued, "This time, we're competing with the Empire World Corporation!"

"The Empire World Corporation?" When Arthur heard this name, he couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. Then, he said in a low voice, "That woman Reena Satchwell is not easy to deal with!"

"Reena is still alright. I'm mainly worried about Thomas Morgan and the boss behind the Empire World Corporation. If those people get involved, things will be troublesome…"

Jeremiah said in a low voice.

Arthur frowned and muttered, "That's not right. There's no conflict between our family and the Empire World Corporation at all, and we've always minded our own business. Why did they suddenly take action on this project? Could it be that Reena wants to make things difficult for the Synder family?"

"I don't know what's going on right now, but hurry up and change your clothes. We'll know what's going on when we see Mr. Canto."

"If the Empire World Corporation really wants this piece of land, we can only compete with them…"

Jeremiah knew that Reena could only represent the Empire World Corporation's branch company in Newtown, so he wasn't afraid of her.

"Alright, I understand…"

Arthur nodded gently and prepared to go upstairs to change his clothes.

Jeremiah sat on the sofa and subconsciously glanced at the information on the table.

When Jeremiah saw Connor's photo, he was instantly stunned. His voice trembled as he asked the man who provided Arthur with the information, "Where did you get this information?"

"Mr. Synder Jr. asked me to investigate this!" the man hurriedly replied.

"Dad, what's wrong with this document?" Arthur asked.

"Why are you investigating this person?" Jeremiah asked excitedly.

"This person is Freya's boyfriend even though I've been pursuing Freya all this time. I felt that there was something wrong with this person, so I decided to investigate him…" Arthur hurriedly explained.

"What's the use of investigating this information? Do you think you can find out this person's true identity? Even if you use all the power of our company, you might not be able to find out about him!"

Jeremiah smiled wearily.

"Dad, what do you mean?"

Arthur suddenly realized that something was wrong and frowned.

"This person is called Connor McDonald, but most people like to call him Mr. McDonald of Porthampton!" Jeremiah said in a low voice.

"Mr. McDonald of Porthampton?"

When Arthur heard this, he was stunned, an expression of disbelief on his face.

"Dad…Are you kidding me?" Arthur stuttered.

"Why would I joke with you about something like this…" Jeremiah paused for a moment before continuing, "This Connor is Mr. McDonald of Porthampton. I've seen a photo of him before. His identity and background are very mysterious. All I know now is that he's Thomas Morgan's boss and the Chairman of the Empire World Corporation..."

Arthur couldn't help but tremble slightly. He had heard a lot about Mr. McDonald.

In Arthur's eyes, Mr. McDonald was a legendary existence.

Arthur also knew that Mr. McDonald was about the same age as him, but he already had such terrifying achievements.

However, Arthur never expected that Connor was actually the Mr. McDonald!

This result made Arthur feel a little hopeless.
