“Levi, what are you doing?” Anson stopped him when he saw Levi sitting down.
“I’m taking the place they have reserved for me,” Levi casually replied.
“Are you out of your mind? Look at how many elders are standing, so what gives you the right to sit?” Anson scolded.
“Is Michael’s grandson sick in the head? Or is he just arrogant? Since when is he qualified to sit there?”
“That’s right! He keeps behaving rudely in front of the Patriarch. Michael, what’s the meaning of this? Are you doing it on purpose?”
After berating Levi, the crowd turned their attention toward Michael.
“I…”
He was close to bursting a vessel.
To him, Levi was an idiot who insisted on creating unnecessary drama.
Meanwhile, the South Hampton Jones family stared at Levi as if he was their mortal enemy.
If not for his presence, they would have outshone everyone else during the anniversary meeting.
Amongst the crowd, Calvin pulled Mia over and warned her, “Mia, you should not have anything to do with Levi from now on. Or else, he will be the death of you!”
“Why? He has always treated me well. Don’t worry, he won’t harm me,” Mia replied with a smile.
“You’re still young, so what do you know? I know a scum when I see one.” Calvin hated Levi’s guts now.
Mia retorted, “Dad, you’re the one that’s ignorant. If Levi’s true identity is revealed, he would outshine everyone here. No one can compare to him.”
Calvin gave her an exasperated look. “Did Levi poison your head?”
Mia replied in glee, “Dad, you will know soon enough.”
Meanwhile, Westley suddenly remarked, “Michael, what’s the meaning of this extra chair? Did you prepare it for your grandson?”
“Hahahaha…”
The crowd burst into laughter, causing Michael to feel humiliated.
“Michael, tell me. Who is that seat for?” Even Joey was concerned.
At that moment, Michael knew he couldn’t maintain his secret any longer. “Joey, I wanted to give you a surprise at the end. Given the current circumstances, I have to choice but to tell you now.”
Westley’s heart sank when he realized Michael must have invited someone extremely important to the meeting.
He knew Michael planned to solidify the South Hampton Jones family’s position in one move.
Westley began to panic as he did not make any other preparations.
When he turned to look at the South Hampton Jones family, all of them looked extremely confident.
It was obviously someone very important who would help them reinforce their position.
In his curiosity, Joey couldn’t help but ask, “Hmm? I am very interested to know who this person is?”
Michael replied with a smile, “I’ll not hide it from you any longer. The seat is prepared for the God of War.”
