The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power

Chapter 412

"What else?" Kingsley looked up and wiped his mouth with the serviette. "Aren't you here to eat?"

Eric pointed at Mrs. Hewitt and exclaimed, "It's Mrs. Hewitt's 60th birthday! Since you're sitting at the main table, aren't you going to come up and present her a gift?!"

Will hurriedly came to Kingsley's defense. "Mr. Nicholson is my friend. The Scarlet Heart Group's gift is also Mr. Nicholson's gift!" All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

"That's different!" Eric waved him off. "By your logic, since more than half the people here are my friends, doesn't that mean everyone here doesn't need to give a gift?!"

The leaders of the provincial and city governments were very disgruntled with Kingsley, who remained at the main table.

He acted as if he didn't hear what Eric said and quietly enjoyed his tea.

However, Arnold berated Eric coldly, "Keep your mouth shut, Eric!"

"What's wrong with you today, dad? Why won't you let me talk?" Eric's stubbornness showed in his voice, and he couldn't help but grumble, "I didn't cause any trouble. That Kingsley guy didn't even prepare a gift. Why should he sit at the main table?!"

Then, he lowered his voice immediately after and whispered, "Besides, you just watched the Scarlet Heart Group humiliate us, and you didn't even do anything?!"

Arnold's face immediately twisted with displeasure when he heard this., "Of course, we can't let the Scarlet Heart Group go so easily, but for Mr. Nicholson…"

Before he could finish his words, a loud shout came from the crowd,

"That's right! Everyone here came to celebrate her birthday and brought gifts! So, how can he sit at the main table without even preparing a suitable birthday gift?!"

The man who shouted was none other than Zeke Pena!

Everyone started whispering to one another after hearing Zeke's words.

The crowd was immediately dissatisfied with Kingsley's behavior.

"Mr. Yorkshire is right! Look at Director Marshall from the Cleapolis City Hall. Look at Lenny Karrs and Finley Collins!

Even Chairman Lewis gave a gift worth 30,000, and Chairman Turner whose gift was around 200,000! Yet, they're all sitting at the smaller tables. Why is that kid allowed to sit at the main table? Is it just because he is friends with Will?! This is outrageous!"

As soon as these words were said aloud, everyone at the party nodded with mutters of agreement.

"That's right! Although we shouldn't poke our nose into how Mrs. Hewitt's party is organized, shouldn't we at least show some respect with so many powerful people around?!"

"Exactly! How can he be so rude? They can't just let an unknown kid step all over their heads like this!"

Walter and Loretta exchanged glances but remained silent as they listened to the guests basically throwing a tantrum.

Walter was an intelligent man who had worked hard to get to where he was today.

He knew that this situation had nothing to do with the birthday party.

Instead, the spirit of competitiveness had arisen amongst the guests!

There was a competition between the Scarlet Heart Group and the Sunshine Corporation.

There were even competitions between small leaders of the provincial and municipal governments over statuses and seating.

Moreover, among the guests were supporters and opponents of these groups.

Zeke and his supporters were constantly pouring fuel on the flames.

In short, things were starting to get out of hand!

Everyone was pointing fingers at Kingsley, urging him to either come up with an adequate gift or give up his seat for the other leaders!

Eric was delighted when he saw the chaos and continued to taunt Kingsley, "Kid! Are you hearing this?! If you don't have the power, don't be so shameless to hog this seat for yourself!"

With that, he turned to Will and continued to attack him, "Mr. Maslow, you've seen it for yourself! Everyone's very upset with your actions! Is the Scarlet Heart Group really going to make things difficult for everyone?!"

Will and Heston's faces turned pale, but they couldn't even utter a single word in their defense.
