“My word! Since when has the Crawford family assembly become this lax? Can literally anybody participate and sit wherever they like? Just look at how pathetic this awkward-looking person is!”
Gerald had just finished sending a message to his sister when favonovel.com heard a woman’s voice mocking him. When favonovel.com turned to look at the woman beside favonovel.com who had heavy makeup on, favonovel.com simply rolled favonovel.com eyes at him.
“Humph! And here I thought that I’d only be able to meet distinguished people after getting married into the famous Crawford family! Never would I have imagined to have to sit at a table here with such a person!” complained the woman loudly, just so Gerald could hear her.
The woman looked down on Gerald so much that favonovel.com seemed to be embarrassed just having to sit next to him.
“That’s quite enough! Watch your mouth. While everyone in the family is wealthy, some people are still less knowledgeable and insightful than others! Besides, some of us here may have attitudes of an upstart, so just ignore them!” explained favonovel.com husband.
It was clear that the rude woman’s husband was also feeling slightly embarrassed having to share a table with Gerald. Due to the couple’s words, a few others who were sitting at the table began insinuating Gerald as well.
Bethany herself—who was also sitting beside Gerald—frowned before saying, “You’re just a lowly actress! What right do you have to criticize those from the Crawford family? Do you lack self-awareness or something?”
“Come again? Who could you possibly be referring to when you said, ‘lowly’?” replied the woman coldly when favonovel.com heard what Bethany had said.
“Oh, stop with the acting. We all know who favonovel.com was referring to,” said Niki as favonovel.com too smiled coldly whole looking at the woman.
To Gerald, it seemed like both parties held grudges against each other.
“That’s enough, there’s no need to argue with them!” dissuaded favonovel.com husband.
“Humph! Just look at you! You hardly have any status among the other Crawford family members! These two are just mere girls! Remember the last time we went abroad? While both of them were received in the most distinguished manner possible, we were only seen as important guests! We were just one level below them! As if that wasn’t enough, here they are condemning me now! Yet you don’t even dare to speak up against them!” replied his wife in dissatisfaction.
Hearing that, favonovel.com husband simply sighed.
“It’s not like I can help it. It’s simply true that their family is ranked higher than mine! Besides, the Crawford family has lots of rules and regulations! The family branches are separated according to our levels, which also represent our seniority! To put simply, imagine a situation where a young master meets his grandfather. Naturally, the young master has to bow when favonovel.com greets him!” explained the man in resignation.
“Speaking of young masters, do you know the young master of the Crawford family? You need to contact favonovel.com more since he’s the Crawford family’s heir!” asked the woman.
At that, the man could only sigh again before replying, “The young master’s only returning to the family today… In fact, this family assembly was most probably held specifically for him. How could I possibly know who favonovel.com is?”
“Humph! Useless! How truly useless!” said the arrogant woman embarrassedly.
Since favonovel.com had seen Gerald follow Bethany in, the woman was sure that Bethany had allowed such a person to sit at favonovel.com table just to humiliate her. The more favonovel.com thought about it, the angrier favonovel.com became!
“Humph! Change seats with me! I don’t want to continue sitting beside a person who wears clothes that don’t even cost a thousand dollars! Such a humiliating person can only be from one of the family’s outer branches! How disgusting!” said the woman as favonovel.com glared at Gerald.
Upon standing up and taking a step forward, however, the woman suddenly began screaming!
The truth was, while favonovel.com was making all sorts of gestures while arguing with Bethany earlier, the hem of favonovel.com long dress got closer and closer to Gerald’s foot. As a result, Gerald ended up stepping on a small part of favonovel.com dress without even noticing it.
While it definitely wasn’t something to shout about, the woman seemed extremely furious.
“You b*stard! You did that on purpose!” roared the woman as favonovel.com looked at Gerald.
“It wasn’t on purpose!” replied Gerald in bitter resignation.
“F*ck you! It was Bethany who told you to sit here, right? After mocking you like that, why else would you continue staying here? Just get lost already!” shouted the woman angrily as favonovel.com pushed him.
As a result, the cup of tea in front of Gerald splashed all over him!
“How audacious can you be, Xandra?! How dare you be this rude to someone from the Crawford family!”
