“Old Mr. Belmont, Mr. Oakley, Mrs. Oakley, thank you for gracing me with your presence.”
“By inviting so many distinguished guests to my father’s birthday banquet, you truly honor the Sue
family.”
Charles sneered inwardly as he said that.
So what if Homer and Brad showed up because of Skylar?
They were like peanuts in front of the Belmonts!
How could he have chastised him because of one little girl?
Especially that Homer, who slapped Caleb across the face.
He would try to find a way to use the Belmonts’ power against them later!
While Charles was contemplating this, Nimrod frowned and said, “Who do you think you are? Is it
necessary for me, Nimrod Belmont, to show you any respect?”
Even though Nimrod had just bowed his head and apologized to Skylar, he was no pushover.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe strong would only submit to those who were stronger than themselves.
Charles dared to brag haughtily about how Nimrod honored the Sue family by inviting many people
over.
Was a mere Sue family worth his laborious effort, regardless of whether he invited these people?
Charles’s heart was racing as he heard Nimrod’s words, but he calmly complimented, “Old Mr.
Belmont, you are right. You didn’t need to show me any respect in the past.”
“My lovely daughter, Yvonne, is now your grandson’s girlfriend. We can be considered in-laws.”
“Aside from you, who can invite the heads of the other Three Great Families here?”
Nimrod was initially displeased because Charles’ words sounded sarcastic to him.
Immediately, with a livid face, he scolded, ” Who the heck are your in-laws? How is your idiot daughter
qualified to be my grandson’s wife?”
“I…”
Charles intended to use this opportunity to praise Nimrod to highlight his excellent relationship with the
family’s oldest member.
He had not expected Nimrod to say such a thing.
He opened his mouth but couldn’t think of anything to say. He was deeply embarrassed.
Nimrod was no longer interested in talking to him, so he turned his head and said to Nolan, who was
standing behind him, “There are so many good women out there for your picking. How did you end up
falling for an idiot?”
“Grandpa… I…” Nolan briefly struggled to find the right words.
Based on what Nimrod said, even his foresight was called into question because of Yvonne.
“Do you plan to spend New Year with her if you’re not breaking up?” Nimrod inquired, his face solemn.
How could Nolan dare to defy him?
He lowered his head and agreed without pausing to think for a second. “Yes, grandpa. I’ll make it clear
to her in a while.”
Yvonne, who was standing by the side, became pale.

Furthermore, once word of today’s incident spread, no wealthy heir in Cloudtopia would dare to pursue
her.
Dudley looked at Charles and couldn’t help but sneer, “Do you believe Nimrod had the ability to invite
me, Waylon Currey, and Blanc Whitlock? Aren’t you assuming too much about him?”
“We came today to celebrate Old Mr. Sue’s birthday entirely because of Mr. Stone and Mrs. Stone.”
“Mr. Stone… Mrs. Stone?”
Those strange names came up again.
It came from Dudley’s mouth this time!
Charles was momentarily shocked to the core.
So Dudley and others came here because of Skylar and Yulia?
That was inconceivable!
Of course, he wasn’t the only one who had trouble believing it. Caleb, Lincoln, Madam Sue, and all of
the Sue family’s relatives all displayed looks of disbelief.
How could Skylar and Yulia be regarded in such high regard?
