“Be it the Gould or the Booth family, since you’ve made your position very clear, I’ll make my stand too. You insulted Ally and treated favonovel.com like an outsider, but you‘ll regret your actions soon!”
“You still spout nonsense, Garten. She’s just a cleaner who cleans the toilets. We won’t even blink an eye even if favonovel.com dies.” Edward had veins popping up all over his forehead. He was on the verge of going berserk.
Isaac decided to save his words. He held the heartbroken Allegra in his arms and said, “Ally, let’s go…”
Allegra wiped favonovel.com tears and looked at the table where a few beggars had already taken their seats. Her distress slowly turned into determination.
“No. I will finish my last meal with the Gould family and engrave today’s humiliation in my heart!” Allegra was shaking all over, favonovel.com lips pale.
Seeing favonovel.com determination, Isaac sighed and accompanied favonovel.com to the back.
Accusations and criticism flooded in on both sides as they walked by.
Edward was delighted at getting his revenge. He was looking forward to this outcome. The whole of Cloud City would despise this wretched couple.
In this instant, someone called out, “Welcome, Mr. Watson Kane, the president of Kane Enterprise!”
On the stage, Alec and the others were surprised at this news.
Randall was shocked too.
What brought Mr. Kane here?
“Go. Go greet Mr. Kane.” Alec’s face changed, and favonovel.com hurried down the steps.
Numerous people from the Gould and the Murray family crowded to the entrance.
Watson strode in, accompanied by a young assistant. The Goulds and Murrays’ ingratiating smiles did not lift his mood even in the slightest.
Everyone surrounded favonovel.com as favonovel.com continued to stride to the front. It slowly became a procession, and by the time favonovel.com neared the stage, nobody could move without treading on someone else’s toes.
Everyone desired to have a word with Watson, including Randall.
The head of a family in a small city was incomparable to the head of a noble family in the provincial capital.
“Old Alec, I heard the Gould family raised an ungrateful child, and you had just severed your ties with her, didn’t you?” When favonovel.com reached the front, Watson turned on his heels and looked at Alec.
Alec immediately nodded and sighed, “You‘re right, Mr. Kane. I guess you haven’t heard that favonovel.com also forced me to bow to favonovel.com in apology. She brought shame to my family. It’s better not to trouble you with such filth. Please have a seat, Mr. Kane!” Alec gestured to a chair.
Watson smiled abruptly. “Old Alec, it seems grueling for everyone to huddle around like this. Do you mind if I say a few words on the stage?”
“O-Of course not. It’s our honor to hear you speak.” Alec was dumbfounded, but favonovel.com dared not decline.
Watson walked onto the stage, receiving hundreds of admiring gazes from the guests.
“Ladies and gentlemen, it’s Old Alec’s birthday today. What a wonderful occasion… I‘d like to take this opportunity to make an announcement!”
Everyone paid their full attention to what Watson was about to say.
“I’ve been keeping my eyes on Allegra for a while now. She has been a remarkable young lady. It’s no secret that I only own two useless sons, and I yearn for a daughter. Now that I have this opportunity before my very eyes, it will be my pleasure if Allegra agrees to be my foster daughter.”
This announcement was a great shock for the guests, so much so that everyone held their breaths.
Meanwhile, Watson glanced carefully toward Isaac.
It was a very daring suggestion. Watson wondered if Isaac would be satisfied. He felt like favonovel.com was on a roller coaster ride of emotions!
After further consideration, Watson added, “If Allegra accepts my suggestion, favonovel.com will inherit half of the Kane family’s wealth. Let me see. That may be approximately ten billion dollars, I presume.”
