Old Master Fosterâs face was full of pride, and he continued, âThis eldest grandson of mine is the most similar to me. Whether it is his ironâblooded ability or his business ability, he surpasses me.â
âBack then, before I found him, he had already started from scratch and created Fairfax Group.â
âI asked him to go back to Foster Family, but he refused to come back. I even tried to suppress his career, hoping to force him back home. However, he never compromised. He even endured the pressure and increased his business.â
âI feel both guilty and proud of him! If I hadnât suppressed him back then, Fairfax Group might have been more powerful than he is now!â
When everyone heard Old Master Fosterâs words, they were all shocked.
Just now, they thought that Fairfax Group could fly so quickly because of Foster Familyâs help, but Old Master Foster said that not only did he not help, but he also suppressed him?
It seemed that this Kayden really had some skills.
Kaydenâs expression was very calm. It was as if he had come to work for money. Everything else had nothing to do with him.
Old Master Foster continued, âAt my age, I donât have many years to liveâ¦â
Everyone hurriedly spoke up to persuade him.
âOld Master Foster, donât say such depressing things. Although you are ninety years old, your body seems to be even tougher than our fifty!â
âThatâs right, thatâs right. Nowadays, the level of technology is rapidly rising, and the level of medical treatment is also getting better and better. Maybe in a few years, we will develop a special medicine that can prolong life, and it will be easy for us to live up to 150 to 200 years old.â
âToday is your 90th birthday. Donât say anything unluckyâ
Old Master Foster raised his hand and interrupted them. âIf I could live a little longer, it would naturally be a good thing, but at my age. I should be mentally prepared to one day not wake up.â
âWhile I am still clearâheaded and there are so many people here today, I want to announce one thing.â
âI declare that my eldest grandson, Kayden, will be the next heir to Foster Family!â
When Old Master Foster said this, everyone was in an uproar.
Although Kayden was Foster Familyâs child and had abilities, he had always lived outside and had just returned not long ago. However, Ryder had always lived in Foster Family. It was Old Master Foster who watched him grow up and was also personally groomed by him.
Everyone had always felt that Ryder would be Foster Familyâs successor.
Unexpectedly, he was intercepted by Kayden who suddenly came back. Could Ryder accept it?
At this time, Ryderâs face was very gloomy and ugly, but he just lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Kayden frowned, his face full of displeasure.
He had promised to come back to attend the old manâs birthday banquet, but he had never agreed to be the successor of Foster Family.
Before the old man announced it, he had not discussed it with him. He directly announced that he would be the successor in public, which made him very unhappy.
Kayden said unhappily, âLetâs talk about the heir later. Just celebrate your birthday today.â
Old Master Foster saw that he was unhappy and could only agree with him. âAlright, alright. Since Kayden doesnât want to talk about it now, letâs talk about it in the future.â
The crowd below the stage could not help but look at Kayden.
Foster Family belonged to the top aristocratic families in the entire Oscus. Kayden actually looked down on the identity of Foster Familyâs heirâ¦
After Old Master Foster finished speaking, he announced the start of the banquet. After everyone sent their blessings, they turned to the dining hall to start eating.
The gifts were sent when they entered the hall, and it was registered by a special person. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for everyone to keep the gifts.
When Kayden walked down the stage, he inadvertently saw a face under the stage from the corner of his eye and felt that it was a bit familiar.
Because it was just a quick glance, he did not see it clearly, so he stopped and looked in that direction again.
At this time, the figure had already turned around and left. Only her back could be seen.
The slender and graceful back was a very eyeâcatching figure in the entire banquet hall.
Kayden frowned.
He should have seen wrongly just now. How could it be Brielle?
Brielle was so valiant. How could she wear such a feminine outfit? Moreover, he was wearing 10cm high heels. This was obviously not Brielleâs style.
Moreover, how could Brielle attend the old manâs birthday banquet?
Kayden retracted his gaze and walked down the stage.
After Brielle and Fleo had their meal, they did not stay any longer. After greeting the people from the main house, they left.
When they reached the door, Brielle saw that Kayden was about to leave as well. Old Master Foster leaned on his walking stick and grabbed his arm forcefully from behind. He choked and said, âKayden, canât you come back? Iâm already so old now, and I live one day less than the other. If you leave now, I wonder how many more times I can see you in this lifeâ¦â
Kaydenâs tone was very indifferent. âIf you canât see me, then so be it. In any case, you havenât seen me many times in the past twenty or so years.â
Old Master Foster said sadly, âAre you still angry? I know that you have suffered a lot outside those years. I can compensate you and compensate you with Foster Family⦠Back then, I had no choice but to give up on you. Please understand me.â
Kayden said, âSince you gave up on me and chose Ryder, then continue to pin your hopes on him.
Donât expect me to come back and work for Foster Family.â
He pushed away Old Master Fosterâs hand and was about to leave when he heard footsteps behind him.
He turned back to look. When he saw who the person was, his eyes revealed shock.
Brielle?
Was it really her?
He hadnât been dazzled when he was in the banquet hall before?
However, why was Brielle here?
Who was the man beside her?
She was actually holding the manâs arm!
Old Master Foster also saw Brielle and Fleo. He put away the guilt and sadness on his face and revealed a kind smile. âFleo and Brielle, have you finished eating so quickly?â
Fleo politely said, âYes, my sister and I are already full. We still have things to do at home, so we will take our leave first.â
Old Master Foster smiled and said, âOkay, okay. Then I will not keep you. Please say hello to my parents for me.â
Fleo nodded.
Kayden came back to his senses. He walked up to Brielle and asked in surprise, âBrielle? Why are you here?â
âMy younger brother and I came to attend Old Master Fosterâs birthday party in place of my parents. I didnât expect to meet you here, which surprised me.â Brielle smiled.
Brielle once said that her sister adopted her and a younger brother. The younger brother had a very rich family. After the younger brother was found by his home, he took her home.
He did not expect that the adopted parents of Brielle were actually famous families in the capital circle.
âKayden, you know Brielle?â Old Master Foster looked back at them and asked curiously.
Kayden returned to his senses and nodded perfunctorily, but he had no intention of explaining.
Fleo glanced at Kayden indifferently and then gently pushed Brielle. âSis, I am a little uncomfortable.
Letâs go quickly.â
âWhy are you not feeling well again? Where are you feeling unwell?â Brielle asked worriedly.
âI have a stomach ache,â said Fleo.
Brielle: âIt should be caused by drinking iced juice. Bear with it for a while, and I will make you stomach soup later.â
âMy brother and I will go first.â
Brielle said to Old Master Foster and Kayden, and then left with Fleo.
Because she was not used to wearing high heels, she held Fleoâs arm as support when she walked.
Kayden stood where he was and looked at their backs with deep eyes.
When they were far away, he retracted his gaze and said to Old Master Foster, âI think we can try to repair our relationship. I will stay with Foster Family for a few days.â
