Everyone at the banquet rushed forward, eagerly presenting their gifts.
The gifts were extravagant.
Some were worth millions.
There were even people offering villas.
Seeing everyone else giving such expensive gifts, Malcolm and Helena lowered their heads.
Even Seraphina wanted to leave.
On the stage, Wesley looked at the mountain of gifts piled in front of him.
His expression suddenly turned cold “What do you think you’re doing?” Wesley’s voice immediately stunned the entire hall.
Even Dean, Ravenmere City’s highest-ranking official, fell silent.
Everyone looked at Wesley, confused by his reaction.
“Are you insulting the general?” “No!
No, absolutely not!” Everyone panicked “I warn you!” Wesley’s voice grew colder “This is what the general hates most!” “Don’t bring your usual tricks and use them on the general!” “By doing this, you’re insulting him!” Only then did everyone understand.
Besides, would the God of War really lack money or expensive gifts?
There was no shortage at all!
The God of War possessed unparalleled wealth and financial power!
“Major General Wesley, please calm down!
We know we were wrong!” Wesley glanced around at everyone and asked, “Did anyone miss giving a gift just now?” Everyone looked at each other and realized that there was no one who hadn’t given a gift.
“Dad, raise your hand!
Something good is coming!” Darius reminded him.
Just now, Malcolm and the others had been listening.
They had felt relieved when they heard that the God of War didn’t like receiving gifts.
But they still didn’t dare raise their hands.
“Raise your hand.
Seraphina believes me.
It’s definitely a good thing!” Seraphina raised her hand, and everyone looked over.
Wesley’s eyes immediately fell on Seraphina.
“Okay, very good!
Not bringing any gifts means that your attitude is right!
You respect the general!
Well done!” Hearing the major general’s praise, Seraphina was flattered and subconsciously stood up.
“What is your name?” Wesley asked.
“Hello, Major General Wesley.
My name is Seraphina.
This is my father, Malcolm…” Seraphina politely introduced the few people with her.
“Very good.
I’ll remember you.
If there are any good opportunities in the future, I’ll give you priority.” Wesley promised.
At that moment, everyone in the hall looked at them with envy, including Dean.
Seraphina and Malcolm quickly thanked him.
They had never dreamed that such a good thing would fall into their hands.
Even after the banquet ended, they still felt as if they were dreaming.
“My God, all of this turned out to be real.” Malcolm had also stuffed the business cards of several important figures into his pockets.
Many people had just shown goodwill toward him.
“Girl, you’re really lucky!” Helena smiled.
Seraphina looked at Darius.
“Mom, I have to thank Darius for all of this!
He expected that the God of War didn’t like receiving gifts, and he asked me to raise my hand.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have dared to do it!” “Tonight, everyone in Ravenmere City looked at us differently!
Several of our problems have even been solved!” “Isn’t that right?
If it weren’t for him, would we have even been able to attend the banquet tonight?” Malcolm and Helena’s attitudes toward Darius had changed a lot.
Darius smiled.
“That’s because you’re lucky.
I only asked a friend to help us get a few invitations.” Seraphina looked at Darius differently.
It seemed as though everything that happened tonight had been under his control.
As if he could solve everything with just a few words.
Did he have some powerful background?
Had everything been arranged by him?
But when she thought about it again, he had been in prison for six years.
How could that be possible?
Soon, she dismissed the idea.
Tonight had been thrilling Fortunately, everything had ended well.
Malcolm and Helena were very happy and finally let out a breath of relief.
Especially in front of Doug and the others.
But at this time, Doug called, and Malcolm answered.
“Starting tomorrow, you and Seraphina don’t have to go to work anymore!” “What?” Doug’s cold and merciless voice came from the other end of the phone.
“You have disappointed me too much.
When will the 2.8 million you owe me be paid back?” “Dad, I…” “Since you still can’t pay it back, I’ll take the company back.
If you can’t do it, hand it over to someone who is capable.
I’ll let Sebastian and Katie take over.
You can figure it out yourselves!” Beep.
Beep.
Beep.
“Patter!” Malcolm’s phone fell to the ground.
After learning about what had happened, Seraphina and Helena hugged each other and cried, “What happened?” Darius asked, watching his wife’s dramatic family.
Seraphina cried as tears streamed down her face.
“Grandpa took the company away, and we’re unemployed.” “Hmph.
Don’t worry.
They will regret it!” The other side.
The Logan family’s ancestral home.
Doug had just hung up the phone.
Alfred asked cautiously, “If we suppress the third family like this, there won’t be any accidents, right?
Darius doesn’t have any powerful background, does he?” Benedict said, “Dad, brother, I’ve inquired clearly.
My friend’s old classmate is from the Metropolitan Infrastructure Authority, and he also went to the banquet.
He said that Darius had no background at all, and he relied on a friend to get in.
What’s more ridiculous is that they were the only ones who didn’t bring gifts.
People say that they like not to give gifts, and Malcolm’s family took it seriously.” “Hahahaha…” Everyone laughed together.
Augustus sneered and said, “The Vale Family dared to lose face at Highcrest Manor.
I must take the company back and let them lose their jobs!” Augustus was very angry about what happened tonight.
Benedict had made a plan to get Augustus to take the company back.
Sebastian also echoed, “Yes, this family is a bunch of ungrateful ingrates!
They don’t even respect Grandpa.
I promise they won’t have a place to survive!” Augustus looked at Sebastian with an expectant expression and said, “Sebastian, the Vale Family will depend on you in the future.
There will be an ecological park development project in the west of the city tomorrow.
We won’t be able to catch up, but it doesn’t matter.
Sebastian, you have to work harder.
Rely on your connections to get a few more projects.” Sebastian smiled.
“Don’t worry, Grandpa.”
