William casually glanced around the hall and saw a few people he knew; however, most here were rich children from other cities, so he didn’t know them.

At this moment, a few men and women standing in the middle of the hall and chatting suddenly walked toward the corner where William was.

“Zara, why did you come over here?”

The leader of these people was a wealthy heir of about twenty-seven years old, who was dressed fashionably in an expensive and decent suit.

The red segment of hair hanging in front of his head was particularly eye-catching.

He didn’t know why William asked him again.“I mean, what is Bill’s position in Vice City? What kind of work does he do?” William asked again patiently.“Uh? He… My nephew isn’t an employee of Vice City!” Desmond looked even more bewildered.William, Celia, and the others looked at Bill with an even more peculiar gaze.At this moment, Desmond realized that there seemed to be something he didn’t know about and quickly yelled at Bill, “You bastard!

  • A thick skinned woman without shame

    Nessa rushed toward Celia and yelled at the top of her voice, “Celia Rodriguez! You did this on purpose, didn’t you?“You deliberately hid your boyfriend’s identity from me and watched me show off in front of you just so you could shame me, didn’t you?!“Well, now you’ve got your wish. I was dumped mercilessly by that shameless man, and all he gave me was some worthless garbage. I became a laughing stock in front of everyone. Did you enjoy the show?“Celia Rodriguez, we’ve been best friends for years, yet you actually wanted to see me make a fool out of myself. You felt pleased to see me getting deceived and laughed at like a clown, didn’t you?

Or else, I won’t be able to explain to my grandfather!”William shook his head, “If I wanted them for myself, I wouldn’t be polite with you. But these are gifts meant for my family.”If Lucas wanted to give something to William for free, he wouldn’t mind accepting it.But he thought that it was insincere to gift his family things someone else gave him.After figuring this out, Lucas stopped persuading him and quickly said to Jane, “Wrap the two pendants up for Mr. Belmont immediately and give him a twenty percent discount!”William didn’t decline the 20% discount, which meant he would only be paying the cost price.“Yes, Mr. Clement!” Jane carefully took the Black Diamond Card from William with both h
