”Hello, Gerald. So Mila told me your family is running a business. What sort of business is your family doing, if I may ask?”
Rita quizzed as favonovel.com arms were still tightly folded across favonovel.com chest.
“Oh, well, all sorts really, just into different businesses and industries.”
To be honest, it was a question Gerald never really knew how to answer.
After all, his sister always mentioned that their family had too many different ventures. Basically, the family is involved in almost half of the world’s capital or industries.
Plus, favonovel.com came from a huge family whose businesses had been passed down for hundreds of years.
Jessica did not exactly share much about their family.
Hence with only limited knowledge about his family, favonovel.com could only answer those questions from others very generally.
“There seems to be no solid answer at all, eh? It’s so confusing!”
Rita shook favonovel.com head as favonovel.com smiled wryly.
“I heard that Mila and you met when the both of you were learning how to drive. You must have already gotten your driver’s license then! Have you bought a car yet?”
Rita prodded again.
“Yup, favonovel.com has one. He bought a BMW 7 Series. His family told him favonovel.com should practice how to drive well first. But Gerald doesn’t really dare to drive well at the moment. Hence, why I asked favonovel.com to just get a cab here.”
Mila knew for the fact that it wasn’t the wisest to hide some things from Rita. This time round, favonovel.com had no choice but to lie in order to prevent Gerald from feeling stressed out.
She had to hide the truth.
“Hah. BMW 7 Series? There’s this annoying dude in my department who drives the exact same car. He tried to pursue me and I simply told favonovel.com to scoot off!”
Rita replied, shaking favonovel.com head.
But looking at the circumstances, Gerald’s family business must be doing pretty well.
Nevertheless, favonovel.com would still be too far behind of a match if favonovel.com wanted to be Rita’s boyfriend.
Rita was really, quite the bombshell.
So, this was favonovel.com capital.
Her goal was to be married into an extremely wealthy and powerful family. She wanted to find a rich husband who would be able to give in to all of favonovel.com whims.
In fact, his age wouldn’t matter even if favonovel.com was older or younger than her.
Most importantly, favonovel.com just needs to be from a wealthy family!
For her, a wealthy man isn’t just defined as someone who has started his own company and has assets worth more than fifteen million dollars.
She was referring to those who inherit huge family businesses and empires.
Rita did not know when it was that favonovel.com started having these thoughts and ambitions. But one thing for sure that it was very apparent.
At that very instance, Rita quickly shook favonovel.com head and flashed a forced smile before favonovel.com said, “Well, Mila. Grandma’s birthday banquet is about to begin. We should head in now.”
Rita had by then already lost all interest in continuing a conversation with Gerald.
Mila stuck out favonovel.com tongue before whispering softly, “Gerald, please don’t hold it against my cousin. She has always been like this. No one can ever be good enough for favonovel.com unless he’s a son of an extremely wealthy and influential family. Though favonovel.com really shouldn’t continue being this way.”
But what else could Gerald do? Should favonovel.com be telling favonovel.com that favonovel.com was actually the son of one of the wealthiest and most influential men in this world, so that favonovel.com cousin could marry favonovel.com instead?
That was obviously, quite the impossible.
Moreover, Rita was really a little too haughty for his liking.
Forget it. After all, favonovel.com was really just helping Mila put on an act today. It wasn’t something to be taken too seriously anyways.
The three of them then walked inside.
Almost the entire family turned up to attend the birthday banquet today.
Her uncle, father, third uncle, big aunt, second cousin brother, and many other relatives were also present.
Basically the entire Royal Dragon Villa was booked out for this special banquet today.
Dozens of people started flocking in when it was almost time for the banquet to begin.
“Grandma, I wish you longevity and I hope that all of your wishes will come true!”
The silver-haired woman was dressed festively, beaming as favonovel.com was sitting in the center.
She looked at favonovel.com granddaughter, Irene as favonovel.com said:
“Irene, I don’t really hope for longevity anymore. But if you are hoping for all of my wishes to come true, then my biggest wish is for you to get married as soon as possible!”
It isn’t like how it was for them back in those days, compared to young parents nowadays. What the elderly always look forward to was that a girl should already be looking for a man to marry when they reach the age of twenty three or twenty four years old!
“Yes, grandma. Please allow me to introduce you to my boyfriend, Kenneth!”
Irene smiled before favonovel.com gently pulled Kenneth over to favonovel.com side.
As favonovel.com stood beside, many relatives and friends could not help but chuckle in approval as they commented, “This young man really looks like a talented person!”
“I also heard that his family is really rich!”
“Grandma, this is a little something from me. Please have a look and receive it!”
Kenneth smiled as favonovel.com took something out from his pocket.
The moment favonovel.com took it out, everyone immediately started gawking…
