Chapter 94
*With her looks, she could have any man she wanted. She could have even married into one of the four prestigious families. But she ended up marrying a cripple. It’s truly baffling
“She was a rose in the hands of those who had no intention of keeping her.”
The crowd sighed with pity. But more than that, they were envious. They wished they could take Sebastian’s place instead.
“Dad! I’ve brought you a beautiful painting. It was drawn by a famous painter. I wish you a very happy birthday and that you’ll live a hundred years more.” Ronan and Evelyn presented their gift
Elijah merely nodded. He really couldn’t bring himself to be happy, especially after catching sight of Sebastian,
Jamie could read Elijah like an open book, and he immediately confronted Sebastian, “What are you doing here? Are you trying to embarrassush
“It’s because of you that our family is being ridiculed. Belinda sneered. “We would usually turn a blind eye to you, but it’s Grandpa’s 30th birthday today Are you here to deliberately cause trouble for him?”
“Jamie, Belinda, please don’t say that. Sebastian is here to congratulate Grandpa,” Lahan hurriedly explained.
Lucas sneered. “Since you’re here to congratulate him, where’s your gift? Could it be that piece of junk in your hands?
Belinda scoffed. “That box looks like some ordinary trash. Hurry up and open it. Let’s see what trash you’ve brought”
Everyone was waiting for Sebastian to make a fool of himself. They knew that Sebastian was penniless, and Lillian didn’t have much money either. The gift that they had brought had to be mediocre at best.
Lillian glanced at Sebastian nervously. She didn’t know what he had bought. She regretted not checking beforehand.
“No matter what the gift is, it’s the intention that matters most,” Lilian piped up.
Belinda rolled her eyes. “Don’t say these hypocritical words. I think that you just didn’t want to spend money on Grandpa and have bought a piece of junk”
Lucas laughed mockingly “Lillian, I’m not trying to mock you, but you refused to marry Mr. Harris and chose this jerk instead. Now, you can’t even afford a decent gift. You’ve dog your own grave.
“Since you’re all dying to see it, I’ll satisfy your curiosity. Sebastian prepared to open the box.
“Alright, stop arguing. Can’t you see where we are? Do you want to make a spectacle for the guests? Elijah reprimanded in a low voice, his face extremely gloomy.
As for the gift Sebastian held, he didn’t even bother to take a look at it
“Grandpa!” Just then, Lyra walked in with a man…
The man had an average appearance, but he exuded a strong bearing. He wore a brand–name suit and an expensive watch. He looked arrogant, with his nose in the air. Lyra, on the other hand, was beaming with joy.
Elijah noticed the extraordinary bearing of the man and hurriedly asked, “Lyra, who is this?”
Lyra announced proudly, “Allow me to introduce you to my boyfriend, Jordan Hunter, the second son of the Hunter family!
Lyra even raised her voice so that it was loud enough for all the garsts to hear.
“The Hunter family? As in the richest family in Wave City? someone asked uncertainly.
Lyra smirked. “That’s right. My boyfriend is the second son of the Hunter family, the richest family in Wave City”
“Wow, the Hunter family is truly a powerhouse. Even with all four of the prestigious familles combined, they still can’t compare to the Hunters.”
“That’s right. The Hunter family is influential throughout Dragotha. And I heard that they have ties to Lord Wavebreaker. I didn’t expect Ms. Lyra to have the second son of the Hunter family as her boyfriend. She’s amazing.”
be able to
“I thought that the Smith family was at its end. I didn’t expect them to have ties with the Hunter family. As long as the Hunter family helps them, the Smith family will be ab return to their former glory and even surpass it”
The guests were all shocked, while Elijah and his family were ecstatic.
“The Hanter family..” Sebastian’s expression grew complicated at the name. He wasn’t unfamiliar with the Hunter family.
He had only had two girlfriends in his life. The first one was when he was in high school, and the second one was Elsa, the precious daughter of the Hunter family, whom he had pot at the Border.
