Chapter 3241
If Adolf had not saved him, he would have died at the bottom of the ocean. Also,
Adolf’s wooden house by the sea was really shabby.
“It’s great to have gratitude. You’re rare,” Damien nodded in approval.
Then, he ordered his servants to give the gold coins to Adolf and his grandson. Adolf
got his life back and received a large amount of gold coins. He was stunned for more
than 10 seconds before he came back to his senses and he expressed his gratitude
to Darryl.
Then, Adolf and his grandson were sent away.
“Mister Darryl, I feel sorry that you won’t get any reward. So, I’ll prepare a banquet
and it would be my honor to have you as my guest,” Damien said, unable to hide his
excitement.
Darryl did not hesitate to nod and smile. “Sure! ” 1
He was taken to Pear City right after he woke up from the coma and had been there
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfor a long time, so he was hungry. Moreover, Darryl found that Lolita really looked
like Lily and he wasn’t sure why, so he wished to stay a little longer.
Damien was delighted Darryl had agreed to attend the banquet and ordered his servants
to prepare it immediately.
Later, Damien arranged for his people to set off fireworks in the mansion to celebrate. His
granddaughter had finally been healed from the illness that tortured her for over a year.
How could he not be happy?
When it became nighttime, the main hall of the mansion was bustling with energy. Only
Darryl and Damien were at the dining table, but there were more than a dozen maids
around them in charge of serving tea or pouring their wine. It impressed Darryl.
Damien was in a really good mood and kept toasting to Darryl. After a few rounds of
drinks, Damien had a thought.
“Oh yes. I haven’t asked you what your next plans are?” he asked, smiling.
Darryl thought about it for a while and said with a smile, “I’m still not sure.”
As he was speaking, a guard walked in quickly with a conflicted expression and said to
Damien, “Master, Mister Grady is here! ”
Damien’s expression changed instantly when he heard Grady’s name. He turned gloomy
and became annoyed. “What’s he doing?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a burst of laughter from outside the hall. Then,
a handsome figure walked in. The man was about 25 years old, well -dressed and had an
impressive aura.
He was the Young Master of the McClaren family, Grady.
Like the Damien family, the McClaren family was one of the richest families in Pearl City.
Due to their business growing bigger and bigger, their status had overtaken the Damien
family’s in recent years.
As he entered the hall, Grady greeted Damien with a smile, "Old Master, please forgive me
for the surprise visit.”
Grady would not even look at Darryl. In his mind, Darryl must have been Damien’s
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnew subordinate, so he did not take him seriously.
“What are you doing here?” Damien asked, expressionless.
“Oh! Old Master, our families are family friends.
You’re an old friend of my grandfather; why are you so annoyed to see me?” Grady
laughed and tried to please Damien.
Then, he took a look outside and continued, “In the afternoon, I saw fireworks at the
mansion and I heard Lolita had recovered. I made a special trip here to congratulate
you.”
"Really?" Damien chuckled, unable to conceal the disgust he felt.
Grady should not have mentioned it, as Damien was furious when he heard what
Grady said. The Damien family and the McClaren family were friends for generations.
Three years ago, the two families had even agreed on an arranged marriage
between Grady and Lolita.
However, everything changed when Lolita fell ill a year ago. Not only did Grady call
off the engagement, he even worked with other families to go against the Damien
family, causing the Damien family’s wine business to plummet.
