Philip was a bit nervous, his palms were sweaty.
From his first day in Golden Port City, he had been hearing rumors related to Lance.
People loved to talk about things associated with Lance, not just the imperial immigrants, but other minorities and Federation people themselves often mentioned Lance.
Because Lance too had climbed up from the bottom, he had gone from being an exploited worker in an ordinary bakery to a family leader in just one year.
It seemed a bit incredible, but Federation people didn't think so, as they had witnessed too many miracles!
Like those who came to the big city with a bag of potatoes and became the largest shareholder of a listed company with a worth of hundreds of millions in three years, starting from scratch.
Or the inarticulate high school graduates who, after self-redemption and enlightenment, suddenly became star salesmen, senior partners of a company, with uncountable wealth pouring in every day.
