The Next day at 10 a.m., at the Montgomery Group office building, twelve ceremonial cannons fired in unison, and red banners hung high. [Welcome Cooper Reese, Chairman of Star River Capital!] From Duke, the head of the Montgomery family, to the managers of each department within the group, and even a specially hired honor guard, a total of over two hundred people lined up downstairs to greet him! Duke's face glowing with pride, he stood at the top of the steps, leaning on a cane, exuding confidence. Who was Cooper? He was the pride of the Reese family in the capital and the chairman of Star River Capital! He was such a big shot. Not to mention Duke, even the mayor of Ramapo would find it difficult to get a meeting with him. But just last night, Duke received a phone call from Cooper!
