129. Tristan
At that moment Winthrop snr’s phone rang while he swiped it. “Alright… I'll be there now!” He said calmly and looked at his daughter. “Scott is about to grace the occasion. We need to leave now…” At that moment, Tristan figured that if he probably saw Scott, he could show him mercy instead. Slowly, he trailed off them till they got to the dining room. The moment Scott saw Wallace, his heart became filled with joy. However, the look on everyone's faces showed that Scott was definitely medically unfit or had travelled for business. Even though some of them seemed genuinely happy to see him around, some wondered if it was truly him because they were too shocked to see him stay fit. “Good evening, everyone. Thank you for having this dinner moment with me.” He began while everyone focused on him. “It's a thing of joy to see everyone hale and hearty just like me.” He continued while someone cleared his throat. Then, Scott laughed. “I know I have always not been around. Even my niece d

“What?” Tristan asked shamefully. How could he dare to leave at his weakest point? This was the moment he needed the mysterious Smith and he needed to confirm if it was truly Wallace.“You can't do this to me… I really supported you throughout this dinner moment.”He said and went on his knees. One thing about Winthrop Snr was that whatever he said was final no matter how calm he was. If anyone dared to mess with him, he would definitely be gone. Instead of that, one could just do what he was told. However, Tristan still believed he could reverse his words and if he did not agree, he could perhaps go see Scott. He was definitely a good man unlike the brother. “I can't do this to you? I was once like you. I needed help and I sourced for it. If you think asking for help is too much, you don't deserve to be here.”Only then did he look at Becca who causally took a seat, while silently happy that her father hadn't descended on her. “Becca…. We're family, right? Please talk to your fath
127. The turnaround
Becca's father calmly dropped his gun and stared at Wallace for a minute. It felt as if there was more to what he knew. Yet, he did not want to judge too quickly. “What are you doing? Shoot him dead!” The member exclaimed while the man shook his head. Even though he disapproved of the relationship between this young man and his daughter, there was something so special about him. Could he really be the mysterious Smith he also looked forward to hoping that he would guide his daughter when he was gone?Just then, the butler and Yemeni entered and whispered something into his ears while he frowned. “How many times have I warned you to be so polite when talking about guests? Besides, you do know that this person is your sister's guest!” The man said coldly while Yemeni lowered his head. He truly did not understand what he took to please his foster father and no matter how much it felt as if he was doing well, it was never enough in his eyes. Now, he not only embarrassed him in the prese
126. Dangerous looking man
At once, the man's phone rang continuously while he glanced at Wallace coldly before staring at his phone wondering what boldness he had to tell him nonsense. Just with a tap on Wallace's phone however, he did not realize it was a done deal. A minute later, a call came in when the member ignored the continuous one. The moment he picked it, his eyes widened in shock. “What do you mean there's a business fold?” He whispered, not wanting others to hear and forgetting what Wallace had said in an instant.Immediately, he walked out of the venue in cold sweats. “This is the business deal we've been talking about. What the hell are you my assistant for? I have invested so much in these people and now, you call to tell me they are pulling out? For what reason?”“Sir… I was told you offended some big shots and they do not want to work with you. In fact… the little shares you have with the Winthrop group are no longer available.”“What?” He whispered and gasped. That was definitely the last
125. The letters
“Wait, don't tell me what this man said is true?” Another family asked as they pointed at the member, Tristan while he shook his head. “Hold on… are you trying to believe this commoner over me? Do you think I would stand here and let this man bully me? What the hell does he take me for?” Tristan asked as he clenched his fist. If this person could guess accurately, then what else did he know about him? Does it mean that what he had been trying to hide had finally come to light? How on earth would he be able to show his face in public after this?Wait… only a few people know about this. Tristan thought and shook his head. Does this mean that he's the mysterious Smith that everyone had been talking about? What if that hidden man was just someone simple instead of the usual wealthy man they were all anticipating?Should he be worried or what? He couldn't help but wonder. Somehow, a lot of thoughts seemed to ponder within him. Yet, he could not wrap his head around the whole thing. “Exac
123. Bankrupt
“And you think he will come just because you asked him to over some silly validation?” Yemeni asked again. Immediately, the butler walked towards Yememi and whispered something into his ears. “Good riddance to bad rubbish!” He finally said and looked at his sister. “Truly, Scott is expecting an important guest aside from the mysterious Smith. However, I was told he's not here. Definitely, Scott never handed you that card.”Wallace laughed shortly. “He probably never knows I'm around…”“Can you guys just stop this? This person is Scott's guest. Let's not do this… it's possible he doesn't even know that he's here. Let's give Scott a minute for him to come and…” Again, another member interrupted Becca. “Do you think we all want to be around someone of a nameless background?”What? Wallace thought and bit his lips. “I see you on social media. The owner of Goldberg pharmaceutical company who had recently wanted to sign a huge contract with Chairman Charles. Isn't that so?” Wallace ask
