Chapter 78

Eleanor instantly figured out what was going through Ryan’s mind.

He probably hosted this dinner party and invited Jason to set him up with his sister as her boyfriend.

But what Ryan didn’t expect was that Jason would actually bring a female companion, which left him a

bit unhappy.

However, Ryan was still very polite to her, so of course, she ought to show him respect.

She shook Ryan’s hand back, smiling, “Hello.”

With that, Ryan finally let go of her hand and turned his attention to Jason, saying, “Long time no see.

Let’s have a drink together.” Worried about Eleanor, Jason suggested, “Come in with me.”

Not wanting to cause any trouble with a displeased Ryan, Eleanor politely refused Jason, “I’m a bit

hungry, so I’m going to grab something to eat first.”

Before Jason could respond, Ryan quickly arranged for a server to assist Eleanor, “Take Ms. Shultz to

get some food, please.”

The server immediately complied, “Ms. Shultz, please follow me.”

Seeing this, Jason couldn’t say no, so he just reminded Eleanor, “Don’t wander off, wait for me to come

back.”

Eleanor nodded, following the server to the dining area.

A variety of dishes filled the long table, providing something for everyone.

Eleanor had a sensitive stomach and didn’t dare to eat too much, but under the server’s hospitality, she

tried some mushroom

soup.

As she was enjoying her soup, she suddenly saw a parade of luxury cars arriving at the manor.

Aidyn Reyes stepped out first and opened the door of a Koenigsegg for the distinguished man in the

backseat. Under the yellow lights, the man stood by the car door, dressed in a black suit with his hands

in his pockets.

His handsome face was flawless, and his eyes radiated cold light.

As soon as he appeared, all the high–class guests in the manor came rushing to greet him.

Even Derek Mallory, who hadn’t shown up before, popped out of the villa.

“Mr. Laurence.”

Derek walked up to Bernard with his whole family, saying respectfully, “I never expected you to attend

our family gathering. Otherwise, we would have greeted you at the door. Please forgive us.”

But Bernard simply answered indifferently, “It’s fine.”

His icy gaze swept across the crowd, unable to find her, he furrowed his brows slightly.

At the same time, Cedric also got out of a limited–edition sports car mainly to question Jason about his

intentions.

Derek felt even more honored at Cedric’s presence, “And Mr. Cedric is here too?”

Lucky him, his daughter was still troubled about finding a boyfriend, and both Laurence Group brothers

were here.

Although Cedric was known for being lazy, unproductive, and a bit of a playboy, he was still part of the

Laurence family, and their marriage alliance was worth considering.

As for Bernard, he was out of the picture, since the Ratliff family had already chosen him as their son–

in–law.

Derek, well aware of the situation, treated the Laurence brothers like VIPS and seemingly discarded

Jason, whom he had just praised. His action pissed off the Mallory Family’s daughter, Brenda

She really liked Jason and had begged her brother to invite him over. However, she didn’t expect her

father force her to please Cedric instead!

Cedric was obviously a playboy why would he ever want to marry her?

Frustrated, Brenda left secretly after catching Ryan’s glance.

While Derek showered Bernard with compliments, Ryan felt embarrassed. He gave Jason a look,

hinting him to leave and have a drink outside.

Jason wanted to get out too, but politeness stopped him. But now with Ryan’s cue, he turned around

and left immediately.

However, Cedric stopped him before he could get out of the hall, “Mr. Clowers.”

Cedric walked up to him, interrogating him like an elder, “To my knowledge, half a year ago, it was the

Clowers family who approached us for the alliance. Now you’re at Ms. Mallory’s marriage party… What

are you up to?”
