Chapter 880 Duncan Von
Mackenzie took a car to the seaside. A seaside villa shimmering with dazzling lights in the night stood before her, resembling a paradise on earth!
The Chapmans truly are an elite family!
She couldn’t help but admit that to herself. Although the Quillens were a prominent family in Yeringham, a noticeable difference in wealth and power still existed between them and the Chapmans. To put it simply, a locally known wealthy family was nothing compared to a nationally known wealthy family.
“Excuse me, have you received an invitation?” The Chapman family’s guards approached and asked for identification before Mackenzie could get out of the car.
“Lexi, please wait for me outside. I’ll go in alone.”
After presenting her identification and invitation, Mackenzie entered the palace–like seaside villa under the guards‘ guidance, where the private banquet had already begun.
The banquet was neither large nor small in scale and covered two floors. The attendees were all attractive men and women trying to outshine the others.
She did not come in fancy attire but in a high–end business suit, yet her unique cold and elegant temperament caught the attention of many as soon as she entered.
“Who is she?”
“Is she from Chanaea? How beautiful she is!”
“Her eyes carry a hint of arrogance. She’s just my type!”
Many people fell into discussion, and several confident men even approached Mackenzie.
“Hey, my name is Duncan Von. Can I have a drink and a dance with you to get to know you?”
Eventually, a tall foreigner approached Mackenzie first. Upon seeing Duncan Von’s interest in her, the other proud heirs could only shake their heads and sigh, knowing they had no chance.
Mackenzie also noticed the commotion around her and could sense the dignified air the man before her bore. Von was the literal Chanaean translation of a surname but wasn’t a common local surname; instead, it belonged to a genuine foreign noble family.
She knew that she was considered a high–born heiress in Yeringham, but abroad, she was just an ordinary girl from a wealthy family. The man in front of her definitely had a special status, so if she were to reject his invitation bluntly as she did in Yeringham, it would probably bring her great trouble!
“Sorry, I already have plans!” Mackenzie politely smiled, exuding a hint of frigidity in her rejection even though she tried her best to be gentle.
Sure enough, he reached out and stopped her just as she was about to leave.
She furrowed her delicate eyebrows, never expecting things to go so poorly. She hadn’t even seen Nathan yet, and already she was being bothered. She even regretted a little why she didn’t wear a mask when entering. After all, many people at the scene were wearing masks, creating an enjoyable party atmosphere.
“Miss, a Chanaean saying goes, ‘We can do this the easy way or hard way.‘ My understanding of your language is poor, so can you please tell me what this means?”
His expression was arrogant, while a disdainful curve lingered at the corner of his mouth. He had forcefully won over many women from Chanaea with his status, so having one more tonight wasn’t a big deal. Mackenzie also sensed his malicious intent, and her fist tightened as she tried to think of a solution.
Just then, she heard a casual and condescending voice coming from the second floor.
“Duncan, shall I explain it to you?”
As soon as they heard this voice, the men and women at the scene turned their heads in unison. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“Oh! Mr. Chapman is here!”
“Mr. Chapman, I fancy you!”
“Mr. Chapman, can I have a drink with you?”
The arrogant young men and women at the scene instantly became fawning fans, all of them trying to flatter and please Nathan.
