Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years

Chapter 366 Going into business together.

The two girls called by William were frightened by Zach's scolding, and then William said to them, "You can go now."

"Fuck!Are you sick or something?" The first girl who spoke to Zach cursed, then angrily dragged the other girl away with her.

Was there any need for further explanation?

Maria wasn't particularly angry; Zach was just a date she had recently met.

Wealthy and playful wasn't unusual.

"Waiter! Check, please!"

Maria felt there was no need to continue the conversation with Zach and decided it was best to pay and leave.

Zach wanted to say something but couldn't utter a word, nor could he even stand up.

He kept asking the system in his mind what had happened, but there was no response.

All his abilities had been stripped by William, rendering him a useless person.

"William, thank you for this time. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known Zach was such a person." Looking back, Maria felt somewhat scared. No matter how wealthy Zach was, with such character, he was certainly not worth entrusting her life to.

"Why thank me? It was just a coincidence that I happened to see this." William's visit wasn't just to deal with Zach; he also wanted to test if he could extract the mysterious energy from these "Chosen Ones" without killing them.

Of course, this experiment was driven purely by curiosity.

Those who deserved to be killed would not find mercy in him.

"Maria, do you want to open a store? I can find investors for you." William and Maria were walking on the street, and he still intended to help Maria out a bit.

He had promised before that if Maria ever needed his help, she just had to ask.

"Still looking for investors, do you think I can do a big business?" Maria laughed, recalling her youth. When she was young, who didn't want to achieve something?

But now, after going through so much, she just wanted to raise Amy. Other things seemed to lose their significance.

Starting a big business?

She didn't think she had the capacity for it.

William said, "It's not about starting a big business. How about opening a restaurant? I'll teach you a few dishes, consider it my technical investment. Plus, I'll find another investor for us. Essentially, it will be a partnership between the three of us. How does that sound?"

William knows a vast array of cooking recipes. As time goes by, he might forget other skills, but for William, a lover of fine food, the methods of cooking delicious dishes are something he will never forget.

If he taught Maria a few of his techniques, opening a restaurant would likely be a success.

"What kind of dishes? You sound pretty confident," Maria wasn't new to the restaurant business. She knew that success wasn't easy unless the menu was truly unique. And with three partners, how much profit could each person really make?

It seemed like a lot of effort for potentially little reward.

William smiled slyly, "You'll know once I cook for you."

"Who else is involved?" Maria asked, puzzled.

"Of course, the other partner."

William was meticulous in his planning, like how he had arranged for the two young women to play their part in the Zach incident. Before approaching Maria, he had already contacted Bella.

Bella, as the CEO of Whitestone Group, surely had some spare cash.

Investing in a small restaurant would be nothing more than skipping the purchase of a designer bag for her.

William had a rough idea of the spending habits of wealthy heiresses like Alice and Bella. Alice was relatively frugal, but according to her, she still spent around a hundred thousand dollars a month.

It wasn't that they were extravagant,it was just their normal. A single piece of clothing could cost tens of thousands of dollars, and spending a hundred or several hundred thousand dollars on an item seemed normal to them.

It had become a habit.

William led Maria to the Whitestone Group building, where Bella was already waiting in the lobby.

Although William had rejected her marriage proposal, he had helped her several times afterward. Apart from anything else, given her grandfather Daniel Bell's attitude towards William, Bella felt it was worth coming down to meet him personally.

"William, you're finally taking the initiative to meet me," Bella said with a smile upon seeing William. Previously, it was always her seeking him out, and his indifferent attitude was somewhat disheartening.

To the point where Bella even started doubting her own charm.

"This is about discussing business, isn't it?" William had fully adapted to this society by now.

He understood what it meant to be in a business partnership and was aware of the current level of consumer spending. As for Bella, he had no ulterior motives,being friends was good enough for him.

"What business do you want to discuss with me? Let me tell you, my personal charm in romantic relationships has been quite impressive lately, so I don't need to pay you to take me out for a meal," Bella chatted casually with William before turning to Maria. "Maria, are you the potential partner William mentioned? Are you planning to open another bar?"

Maria, of course, remembered Bella, the wealthy heiress. As the young lady of the Bell family and the CEO of Whitestone Group, Bella's personal assets had already exceeded one billion dollars at the young age of twenty-five.

Maria was surprised that William's mentioned partner was her.

Maria was almost too nervous to speak.

She vividly remembered Bella's first visit to the bar, where she had ordered wines worth several hundred thousand dollars. With Bella's status, any business deal she discussed would likely be worth millions. Smaller deals probably wouldn't even merit her attention.

Now, William was bringing her to Bella to discuss partnering in a small restaurant...

"William, didn't you say you were going to cook two dishes for me to try? Let's go to my house. Whatever ingredients or kitchenware you need, I'll have someone arrange it now." Bella originally had some other things to do today, but when William came to find her, she promptly put all her work aside and took William back home. Her grandfather should be very happy, she thought.

"That's fine," William had three reasons for approaching Bella.

The first was to find an investor for Maria.

The second was to deal with the "Chosen Ones" around Bella.

And the third, when William used his divine sense to scan the Bell's house, he discovered that Daniel Bell's life force was about to extinguish.

Daniel had once been a chef in William's household. Although William only taught him a few simple dishes and the rest was Daniel's own learning, since he was going to cook at the Bell house, it seemed right to see Daniel one last time.

"Should I come along too?" Maria was still feeling somewhat out of place.

What right did she have to enter the mansion of a wealthy family like the Bells?

"You're William's friend, which makes you my friend. Of course, you should join us for the meal," Bella, linking arms with Maria, smiled. "Don't worry, there's not many people at my house. My parents are working outside. I think only my grandfather is at home right now."
