His Lordship Alexander Kane

Chapter 0629 Two days later, at the Springvale Grand Hotel in the third ring of Mosgas City...

As the capital of Wyverna, the prosperity of Mosgas City was not hard to imagine.

I There were three seven-star grand hotels in the city, and the Springvale Grand Hotel was one of them. It was luxurious and magnificent.

» The minimum expenditure in the hotel, even for the most ordinary standard room, started at over 30000 dollars. As for the luxury ballroom on the top floor, which was the ninety-sixth floor, the price even reached a staggering 400000 dollars. That was just the price of the venue, not including the drinks and food.

Evelyn chose to host the reunion party there as she wanted everyone to know she was the top of the top, no matter the year.

Besides Evelyn, the other classmates

were also materialistic and eager to prove their success. For the sake of the reunion j party, many old classmates spared no { expense, renting expensive sports cars from car dealerships. Some even took out loans to buy luxury goods just to show off in front of people.

After all, that was their first and only reunion in the 30 years since they graduated, so no one wanted to look inferior to the other.

"My old classmates! We haven't seen each other for about ten years, have we now? Where are you working now?" "Sarah, right? When we were in school, we often went to the library together, do you remember?" "Wow, I recognized you right away! Isn't this our class monitor, Aiden? I haven't seen you in so many years, and you ) haven't aged a bit. Back then, you were the star of our school's soccer team..." I I

A large group of old classmates reunited after a long time, seemingly chatting enthusiastically, but in reality, the vast ¢ majority of people's eyes were intentionally or unintentionally fixed on Evelyn. She was the one who organized and paid for the reunion party, so she deserved to be the center of attention.

Evelyn was over 50 years old, but she looked very good for her age. She dressed gracefully in an exquisite handmade dress. She also wore her earrings, which were a limited edition from the top international luxury brand, Hennessy Ville. There were only ten sets of those earrings in the whole world and were hard to get, so it was priceless.

It was no exaggeration to say that just the pair of earrings was worth more than an ordinary person's life.

"Susanne, I've been looking forward to seeing you, and I finally see you here!" Evelyn stood in the middle of the crowd,

keeping a constant eye on the entrance to the banquet hall. She immediately I greeted them with a smile when she saw Susanne, Amber, and Alexander walk through the door.

I "Oh dear, isn't this beautiful lady your I daughter, Amber? Oh, and this must be your son-in-law who married into your family! I heard he goes by the last name of Kane.

"It's okay to live off your wife, but the key is to be obedient! I know you young people would rather find a good wife than struggle to make a living. Hehehe!" Susanne and Amber's faces changed instantly.

In the eyes of outsiders, Alexander was a son-in-law who married into the Chesire family for wealth; he was known as a good-for-nothing who lived off his wife.

However, since Alexander returned from the military, he repeatedly solved many issues for the Chesire family and even

+ single-handedly supported the Chesire family by growing the New Chesire Group I into a huge business empire witha market value of hundreds of billions of dollars.

Without Alexander, the Chesire family would not have been as successful as they were. Amber would be the first to stand’ up for Alexander if anyone dared to call Alexander a son-in-law living off his wife.

i "'Speaking of living off someone, I just remembered something.

Amber held Alexander's arm and looked at Evelyn steadily in the eyes. "When you were destitute, my mother fed and clothed you, found jobs for you and your daughter. However, you both were lazy and chose to rely on men, never thinking of relying on your strength to make a living.

"Now you're holding a reunion party, making such a big scene just to tell

I everyone that you and your daughter have found wealth through marriage.

People rely on clothes to look good. I ~~ ¥ must say that your outfit today looks exceptionally expensive!" Evelyn's expression froze when she heard Amber’s ridicule, and she felt very close to cursing. \ Amber was right. Evelyn's second marriage was to a middle-aged businessman who had a comfortable life.

He was a vegetable vendor in a small county who could not rise to the occasion.

On the other hand, Evelyn's daughter married into a wealthy and prominent family influential in Mosgas City. The mother-daughter duo relied on the son- in-law to greatly improve their standard of living, and they made contact with many wealthy missuses.

"Amber, watch your words. How could you be so rude to Evelyn?" Without giving Evelyn a chance to

respond, Susanne pretended to rebuke Amber then she took Evelyn's hand and ' smiled apologetically. "Evelyn, we've { been sisters for many years. Please forgive the youngsters for their ignorance.

I "Then again, you have mistaken something. Alexander is not good for nothing. Although he is a son-in-law who married into our family, he came from the famous Kane family up north — "Mom." Alexander gently stepped forward and smiled at Susanne. "I don't have anything to do with the Kane family.

Evelyn just said something reasonable, a good son-in-law should indeed be obedient." Having said that, he turned his head to Evelyn again, seemingly smiling.

"Evelyn, is your son-in-law here? I'm sure he's very obedient, right?" The reality was Evelyn and her daughter

relied on her son-in-law to live in dignity, so they had to look at the son- ! in-law's face for everything. How could * he possibly be obedient to her? At most, he would give Evelyn face for her daughter's sake.

I "You're provoking me, aren't you? You'll pay for that." Evelyn glared viciously at Alexander and violently threw Susanne's arm away while waving over someone in the distance. "My dear son-in-law, Erhard, come over and say hello to Susanne!" Evelyn's son-in-law, the eldest young master of the Eastwood family in Mosgas City, Erhard Eastwood.

The head of the Eastwood family gave him the name, intending to make him someone who brought honor to his family. Although he had a good name, his appearance was quite unsightly. He was short and stout, and his face was filled with pimple scars. Even the mostProperty belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

expensive skin care products could not save his face.

A! "Mom?" On the main seat of the banquet hall was Evelyn's daughter, Jennifer Gosling, who was a whole head taller than Erhard. She "held his arm and walked to Evelyn's side, frowning. "What's going on? Erhard and I are very busy. Why do you want us here if there’s nothing much going on?" "Evelyn smiled at Erhard and then pointed at Alexander contemptuously. "Good son-in-law, tell this kid here that you're willing to listen to me, why don't you? "I want you to tell this boy that you're not only an obedient son-in-law, but that the Eastwood family is prominent and influential as well. Everyone must bow and submit to the Eastwood family. Even if I kill stray cats and wild dogs, no one will dare speak out for fear of the Eastwood family's retribution."
