Slumdog Billionaire Husband by Rayden Berg

Chapter 300 Conflict

It was noisy inside the banquet hall. Most of Wesley’s friends were farmers.

Outside, people who came and went heard the noise inside and frowned.

Just as Valery and Gerald were talking, outside, a sports car stopped at a parking spot on the roadside.

Then, two young people got out of the car.

The man was about 22 or 23 years old. The woman was about 20 years old, and he looked like a

student. She was beautiful. In a short skirt, she revealed her long legs!

After getting out of the car, she walked over and held the man’s arm.

Hearing the noise next to them, they both looked inside. The woman frowned and said, “Milford,

why do these people look like farmers?”

Then, her face showed a look of disgust.

A hotel attendant in a suit ran over with a walkie–talkie in his hand. He smiled apologetically at

them and said, “Mr. Thornton, Ms. Taylor, there you are!”

When Gerald heard this name, he was slightly shocked.

This man was called Milford Thornton, and the woman was called Athena Taylor.

And according to the name of this man, he was probably from the Thornton family in Washington

and related to Dave.

Athena looked at the banquet hall next to her in disgust and said, “Since when has the hot spring

hotel become so low? It starts to open for farmers.”

After that, Athena looked at Milford and said, “Milford, why don’t we change to another hotel? This

place starts to receive farmers. It is beneath me.”

The staff revealed an awkward expression. He hurriedly explained, “I’m sorry. After all, we are in

the service industry. We have to receive anyone who offers money. I reckon that some nouveau-

riche is treating his friends here. We can’t do anything about it. Please be a little more considerate.”

Milford frowned, then waved his hand, and said, “Athena is right. Letting these farmers come to such a

high–end hotel indeed lowers your hotel. As long as I give you money, you will do anything, right? I’ll

pay double the price. Clear these people out. The noise gives me a headache!”

Athena’s face lit up.

Gerald and Valery watched this scene and frowned slightly.

The manager was slightly stunned. Athena frowned and said, “What are you doing? We have promised

to offer double the price. Hurry up and get rid of them. I feel uncomfortable staying here

for one more minute!”

“You sound like you are noble.” Hearing this, Gerald could not bear to continue listening. He said lightly,

“You are good–looking and have hooked up with a rich man, but you can’t change your filthy and vulgar

temperament!”

When Gerald’s voice sounded, he quickly attracted the attention of several people!

Milford and the others looked over. Athena’s face was quite ugly. She stared at Gerald and said, “Did

you say that?”

Gerald nodded and said, “Yes. So what?”

Milford and the hotel staff noticed Valery, and their eyes couldn’t help but reveal a trace of amazement!

Athena was good–looking, but Valery outshone her. As for temperament, Athena stood no comparison

with that of Valery.

Athena was furious. She glared at Gerald and asked, “How dare you say that about me? Do you know

who I am? I am the finest girl at Georgetown University. The one next to me is Milford Thornton from

the Thornton family.”

“The finest girl at Georgetown University?” Gerald curled his lips and asked, “Who said that? Are you

boasting? Don’t spread it everywhere. No one will say that she is the finest girl at school. And … does

Georgetown University know about your boast? You just disgrace your university!”

“You!” Athena was furious!

As Milford’s girlfriend, whether she was in school or Washington, Athena was used to being bossy.

Gerald’s rebuke left her at a loss for what to do. Athena could only look at Milford and said,

“Milford, look at him!”

Milford felt a little embarrassed that his girlfriend had been insulted. He took two steps toward Gerald,

pointed at Gerald, and said, “Kneel down and apologize to my girlfriend!”

The staff hurriedly said, “Sir, stop talking. This is Mr. Thornton from the Thornton family in

Washington…”

“Apologize? Why? Did I say something wrong? My friends are eating here and holding a banquet.

Athena keeps chattering like a retard and says that this hotel is beneath her. What level does she think

she is at? From 1,600 dollars a night to 500 dollars?” Gerald looked at Athena with disdain and said,

“Moreover, I won’t be willing to pay 500 dollars a night to a woman like her!”

Gerald was practically sticking close to her face and scolding her for being a prostitute.

Milford’s expression was extremely ugly. He tilted his neck, walked to the trunk of the car, and took

out a baseball bat. He pointed the baseball bat at Gerald and said, “Bastard, I won’t let you off! I’ll make

you kneel down and apologize at all costs.”

“Don’t. I’m afraid you won’t get your way!” Gerald said lightly.

After Milford heard this, his face twisted in anger. He was about to rush over with the baseball bat. The

staff saw that something was wrong and quickly held Milford. “Mr. Thornton, calm down. You said you

would offer double the price. How about this? The hotel will communicate with those people and drive

them out.”

Upon hearing this, Milford looked a little better. Then he said coldly, “Also, get this brat to kneel down

and apologize to my girlfriend. If my girlfriend is satisfied, this matter can be over. Otherwise, your hotel

has to close down. You know who I am. It is simple to destroy a five–star hotel

like it.”

The staff had an ugly expression on his face. He looked at Gerald and said, “Sir, you heard it too. Mr.

Thornton said that he would give us double the price. You see. Why don’t you apologize to them? I

will give you the money.”

Gerald looked at the staff and asked, “Can you represent this hotel? Do you only listen to the rich?”

The staff was stunned!

Then, Gerald continued, “Since you said so, I will pay three times the price. Throw this bastard out. If

you don’t kick him out, I will also destroy the hotel. It will be easy for me.”

When Valery heard Gerald’s words, she couldn’t help but smile. It seemed to be a little funny.

The staff was dumbfounded. When he heard Gerald’s threat, his face darkened and he said, “Sir, it

seems that you don’t understand what I mean. Mr. Thornton’s family is the richest in Washington.”

Hearing the hotel staff’s repeated emphasis, Milford revealed a proud expression. Athena stared

fixedly at Gerald, as if she was waiting for Gerald to admit defeat.

“The Thornton family!” Gerald looked at Milford with a faint smile and said, “Jared is your grandfather,

right?”

“Exactly!” Milford said proudly.

Athena sneered, “Now you are afraid. If you are, then quickly kneel down and apologize to me!”

Gerald chuckled, looked at Milford, and said, “Even Jared has to kneel while talking to me. Who do you

think you are? How dare you show off in front of me?”
