Chapter 68
The Remorseful Brothers
Chapter 68 Thomas and the others spotted Madeline.
He looked slightly gloomy, but he still went to meet her, âThank you for coming to my daughterâs enrollment celebration banquet.
Glorious Group is truly magnanimous. I man humbled.
Madeline raised her eyebrows. âNo, I just happen to be here, so Iâm only dropping by a little embarrassed. âOh, well... Thatâs great, too. Please, sit down.â
Thomas was a âItâs all right. Iâm just going to a lake a brief look around,â Madeline said.
Madeline waved her hand and added, âI have to go to the seventh floor late later.
Regina was also here.
âWhatâs going on?â She pulled Benjaminâs arm and asked, âWhy are there 200 to 300 tables here?â
Benjamin was confused. âI donât know, either. I thought there wouldnât be many people coming to the Larson familyâs enrollment celebration banquet. But I didnât expect so many people to come. Moreover, they are all prominent people.â
Benjamin frowned and was confused as he said, âMaybe I guessed wrong. It seems that you canât underestimate anyone.â
âItâs not underestimation. The problem is today-â Regina stopped talking.
Today was the enrollment celebration banquet for the CEO of Glorious Group.
âHow could these people not participate in Ms. Houghtonâs enrollment celebration banquet? How could all these prominent people attend the enrollment celebration banquet of the Larson familyâs fake heiress instead? Regina wondered It was impossible for these people to choose to offend the Glorious Group and Caleb in order to please the Larson family instead.
Benjamin looked at Madeline and found another excellent man standing next to her.
He couldnât help but feel a sting in his eyes, which forced him to look away. âSheâs not Madeline anyway By then, it was already three oâclock.
Everyone who saw Madeline had to go over and say hello.
âWelcome to our enrollment celebration banquet. Itâs a great pleasure to be here with you,â the emcee announced onstage.
Everyone paused and sat down again.
It was more appropriate for them to go toast again after the ceremony.
The emcee gave some opening remarks before announcing, âNow, letâs publish the gift lis list first.â
He smiled and said, âTrâs quite generous, Judging by what Iâm seeing here, even I think that my imagination is too poor.â
Everyone looked at the emcee.
They were afraid that their gifts would be embarrassing.
The emcee stood on the stage with a gift list in his hand.
1Bearing this, Winslet was slightly surprised and then turned happy.
It seemed that the gifts for her were very good. Otherwise, the emere wouldnât have said so.
Thomas patted Winslet on her shoulder and said, âWinnie, everyone here values you so much. You should also study hard to live up to everyoneâs Expectationsâ
Winslet nodded solemnly. âYes, Daddyâ
Layla and the others also come upstairs.
Joel crossed his arms around his chest and leaned slightly against the elevator, looking at the stage.
Chapter 68 His face was full of relief Harley walked to Winslet and whispered a few words, making Winslet laugh more happily.
Lucas didnât show up.
Jacob looked worried.
Henry sat in a remote seat and looked at Madeline.
Madeline stood in the light, looking dazzling.
He was sure that it was his sister Madeline at first sight, but he didnât dare to get close. He felt ashamed of himself.
The emcee announced, âMr. Ross from Ross Beauty has sent a set of highâend pearl jewelry. Mr. Sollace of the Sollace Group has gifted a diamond studded ornament. Mr. Kirby from Kirby Hotelâs gift is a highâgraded vicuna fabric!â
The emcee continued after a brief pause. âMr. Powell, from the city council, has gifted paintings from past imperial dynasties.
These are antiques collected by famous artists! Ms. Hayes from Zaidham Pharmaceutical has gifted topâtier truffles! The certificate is complete. It was the auction item of Zaidham Pharmaceutical Company worth ten million dollars last quarter!
Meanwhile, the chairman of the chamber of commerce, Mr. Lowe, has gifted a piece of land of 5,300 square feet!â
à¼à½¼à¼à½ After the emcee finished speaking, his tongue was a little knotted as he thought, These people are truly wealthy to be so generous with their gifts!â
He took a deep breath and left after he was done with his announcements.
He could brag about this event for a year or two with his friends.
Even by the most conservative estimation, he e reckoned the gift list alone could be well worth over 20 million dollars.
Winslet was dumbfounded and wideâeyed.
She wanted to applaud, but she didnât have any strength. She felt like standing on the clouds.
It felt like she had hit the jackpot out of nowhere!
Windlerâs heart beat fast, and she murmured to herself, âAm I dreaming?â
She hadnât expected to receive so many gifts.
After all, the Larson family could only earn 2 million dollars a year.
Joel was also surprised. âItâs too generous.â
Harley was perplexed. Their friendship with the Larson family is weak. Why would they spend so much on a mere enrollment celebration banquet?â
Jacob sighed. Iâve already felt that somethingâs not adding up.â
He turned to Thomas and said, âDad, itâs really not right that the gift is over tens of millions.â
Hearing Jacobâs words, Thomas looked around and said. âCould it be theyâve all sent the wrong gifts? Thatâs really unlikely He couldnât help but wonder if the Larson family from the capital had done something to support them.
If it were the Larson family in the capital, they would have such a reputation here.
Layla replied, âWell, just take the gifts, then. Whatâs so difficult about that?â
She took the gift list and looked at it with a smile.
She could wear clothesâmade from vicuna fabric and precious jewelry every day.
There were also 5.300 square feet of land, which was very valuable. They could build a manor there and plant flowers Layla was so happy just thinking about it.
Layla was already thinking about how to deal with these gifts.
âWinnie, youâre making a fortune todayâ Layla was so excited that she wanted to take the gifts back home and open then one by one.
Chapter 68 Winslet tried his best to control her smile and didnât want to look too happy âMom, this is all because youâre wellâconnected.â
Layla said. âOf course.â
The elevator door opened again with a ping.
Everyone was too busy to notice that the temperature dropped a lot in an instant.
Caleb walked out with a dark face and a steady pace.
He looked extremely cold.
It was hard to miss the hint of anger in his deepâset eyes.
His aura was so intimidating that it sent chills down everyoneâs spine.
âMr. Simmons, youâre here!â Billy suddenly got up and rushed over like a lackey, was really ignorant as he thought, âGet out of the way, damn it! How dare he block Mr.
He squeezed Thomas out of the way and felt that Thomas was really i Simmonsâ way!â
Billy made a mental note to warn Thomas later.
Billy smiled flatteringly. âYouâve changed the place without letting us know, Fortunately, we have all found the venue. Iâm the first one to come here. I hope your sister likes my gift.â
The Larson family were petrified right then as they wondered, âWhat did he mean by that?â
âMr. Lowe...â Thomas was speechless.
âOh, Mr. Larson. Why donât you hurry up and welcome him in? You r welcomed Mr. Simmons properly.
really canât do anythingâ Billy frowned and said, âIf I were you, I would have With that, Billy waved his hand and said, âGet out of the way!â
The Larson family made their way to the side.
They were all perplexed by the turn of events.
Layla didnât know what was going on. She asked, âWhat is this?â
Madeline smiled. âWhatâs going on? You brought all my guests on the seventh floor to the second floor. Madeline narrowed her eyes and asked coldly. âAnd yet you have the cheek to ask whatâs going on!â
Caleb sneered, touched the rosary beads on his wrist, and held his chin up. I kindly invited you to attend my sister Madelineâs enrollment celebration banquet, and you dared to trample all over my invitation. Are you looking down on me?
Billy was stunned, and his back turned cold.
The others were also confused.
They were all ushered here, but they didnât expect this to happen as they thought, âHave we all gotten to the wrong place and presented our gifts to the wrong person?â
Caleb stood still, raised his hand, and made a gesture. âTrash this place.â
A group of people in black began to smash the scene without hesitation.
Those businessmen were so scared that they all screamed and dodged away However, offending Caleb was scarier than getting their tables smashed Clatter!
The sound of the cups falling to the ground was endless It was still a feast moments ages, but now was already a temble mess.
