The arrival of the Reed family brought a slight shift to the ambiance. It was clear that Gregory and the Hoffman family members were weing toward them. With their wealth and status, there was no need for them to humble themselves. However, inparison to how they behaved with others, one could say they were rather courteous.
Only Justin, resembling the status of a Greek god, sat with dignity beside Gregory, gazing intensely and affectionately at the person hecared for.
In another corner of the room, Wyatt was deep in conversation with Be, who appeared serious and focused without noticing Justin’spiercing gaze.
His expression darkened suddenly when Christopher lifted his champagne ss and unintentionally blocked his line of sight. Christopher slowly turned to him, wearing a casual smirk as he raised his champagne ss in a moving toast.
Justin’s blood surged, making it hard for him to breathe. He tightenedhis grip on his ss with rage.
Suddenly, the ss shattered in his hand, causing the champagne to spill all over him.
“Oh! Justin, your clothes are wet!”
All attention shifted towards Justin as Zoe quickly moved to his side. Much to everyone’s surprise, she kneeled in front of him and startedwiping the stains from Justin’s trousers with a handkerchief.
Everyone was stunned.
“Damn! Ms. Hoffman’s behavior is just outrageous!”
Logan’s and ire’s faces turned livid. Liam watched his own niece being ridiculed, but instead of feeling embarrassed, he stood by and found amusement in the scene, unable to hold back a chuckle.
Ryan noticed his uncle’s actions, and his eyes darkened. But he hadno ns to intervene and stop Zoe.
As far as he was concerned, Justin should take advantage of this opportunity to let Zoe embarrass herselfpletely. It would teach her a valuable lesson that she would never forget. A reminder not to chase after men from prestigious families in the future!
“Ryan…” Carrie called out softly as she tugged gently at his sleeve.
“Hmm? What’s wrong?” Ryan asked gently as he lowered his gaze.
“I… I can’t exin it, but every time I see your second uncle, I feel a bit uneasy.” Carrie was simple-minded and would say whatever came to
her mind without any twists.
Even though she spoke softly, Liam still managed to catch fragmentsof her words, causing his ears to prick up like antennas.
Ryan embraced his petite girlfriend and spoke loudly. “Then don’t stare at him. It’s not good for your eyes to look at filthy things toomuch.”
Liam felt a surge of anger rise but couldn’t show it, fearing he would appear as though he was eavesdropping on the young couple.
Carrie quickly closed her eyes with an adorable little expression.
Ryan lovingly caressed her silky hair and leaned in to give her a peck on the cheek. “In the future, we’ll have many more lovely children.
Staring at unpleasant things too often can affect our kids’appearance.”
Carrie blushed with embarrassment, her face turning red.
Liam coughed as he choked on his drink, his face also turning red.
Be noticed that Zoe was making a move on her man and felt a surge of anger rising in her chest, causing her to lean forward slightly.Copyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.
However, she had no intention of going over. She wasn’t asshameless as Zoe.
