Chapter 811

“Don’t worry. We’ll take our time,” Kendall said nonchalantly. As he glanced around idly, he caught a familiar face in the rearview mirror. “Haha…” He chuckled coldly. He pushed open the car door and stepped out. He headed toward a cheap-looking car behind him. “Patricia, it’s been a while.” Kendall approached Dustin and Patricia’s car and greeted Patricia with a big smile. Patricia forced a polite smile in return. “I heard you left the Yeager family. Are they going to let you in today?” Kendall asked. “It doesn’t matter. That’s still my great-grandfather. I have to go,” Patricia said, though worry flickered in her eyes. “How about you come in with me? They won’t dare say anything too harsh if you’re with me. At least they’ll show me some respect.” Patricia glanced at Dustin. “No, thank you. We’ll manage on our own.” She rejected the offer. Kendall’s disdainful gaze flitted toward Dustin. “Why are you still with him? What’s he good for, other than dragg

Damien stood at the entrance of the Yeager family villa with a broad smile to greet the incoming guests. “Sir, a 10-thousand-dollar Volkswagen just drove up,” a servant leaned in and whispered to him. “10 thousand?” Damien frowned. Today was the grand 90th birthday celebration for Terry Yeager, the great-grandfather of the Yeager family. Every guest here was rich or powerful, with even the lowest-end cars costing at least a hundred grand. Who would dare bring a cheap car? Was this a joke? There was no way anyone of such low status could be invited by the Yeager family. Sure, some people came uninvited, but even they had a certain social standing. “A cheap car like that, and they dare drive it to the front of the villa?! They’re tarnishing the Yeager family’s image!” Damien’s expression soured. “You take care here. I’ll handle them myself,” he said and headed outside toward the car. From a distance, he spotted the Volkswagen inching forward leisurely. “Stop tha

“Enough with the nonsense! Get out of here now! The both of you! And stay far away so you don’t bring shame to the Yeager family!” Damien barked harshly. “The Yeager family is about to soar to new heights and is destined to rival the most powerful families. Meanwhile, you two will be stuck struggling in poverty for the rest of your lives. You’ll never step through the Yeager family gates again. “Trying to crawl back now? Too late. Get lost!” Patricia opened her mouth to plead, but Dustin stopped her. “Damien, I hope you remember every word you just said,” Dustin said coldly. “Oh, I’ll remember. What are you trying to say? That I’ll beg you to come back to the Yeager family someday? Dream on! “Now, get out!” He stepped forward and was ready to throw them out. “What’s going on here?” a voice interrupted suddenly. The crowd parted to make way for the newcomer. “That’s Adrian! The general manager of Duscia Corporation!” someone whispered as they recognized him.

The banquet hall was brimming with guests. Morgan led Dustin and Patricia in through the back entrance and deliberately chose a discreet spot for them to sit. “Don’t let Uncle and the others see you, or they’ll throw you out,” Morgan said before hurrying off. She had her own duties to attend to. As time passed, most of the guests arrived. Damien stopped greeting visitors at the door and returned to the banquet hall to mingle with the crowd. A moment later, the frail and elderly Terry was escorted out by Damien and his brother, Percy. Leading the way was Zack. The entire room stood up immediately to show their respect. They helped Terry to the seat of honor at the table. Zack took a seat beside him while Damien and Percy sat to either side. At the back of the hall, Patricia raised her head to look at the elderly man at the seat of honor. His frail body and vacant gaze made her heart ache. “Dustin, my great-grandfather doesn’t seem to be reacting at all,” Pat

“The heir of the Pierce family personally attends the Yeager family’s birthday banquet… What an honor!” The Yeager family members stood tall and proud amid the murmuring guests. It was such a prestigious moment for them. They accepted the gift with gratitude and invited Adrian to take a seat. Next, Kendall stepped forward. “Kendall from Dhillon Enterprises presents an ancient carriage statue worth 50 million dollars.” Kendall’s smile broadened as staff carried in the item. “Such extravagance!” The guests gasped. Most gifts were worth a few million, maybe over ten million if generous. But Kendall’s gift was valued at 50 million... It even surpassed Duscia Corporation’s 30-million-dollar gift. It was a whole new level of generosity. Kendall stole the show, and no one else could compare. “Hahaha! Thank you for the generous gift, Dhillon family!” Zack beamed with joy. “The Dhillon family is ridiculously wealthy to give such an expensive gift…” “You don’t

“Pfft!” Laughter erupted in the room before he even finished. He had just taken forever to unwrap a tiny bead the size of a bean and even claimed it was worth 80 million. How dare he? The price was astronomical. It far exceeded Kendall’s 50-million-dollar ancient carriage statue. No one believed him. If he had said it was worth a thousand, maybe they would have believed him. “Is this guy a complete fool? He must be here as comic relief.” “No doubt about it. He’s just here to liven up the banquet.” The entire room was mocking him. Even the Yeager family members and Kendall were stunned. They could not believe it. A bean-sized bead? This was beyond absurd. “I overestimated him,” said Kendall and sneered. This fool could not even muster the dignity to make himself look good. How could anyone compare him to Kendall? They were not even in the same league. “Idiot! As expected, he’s completely embarrassed himself,” said Damien and cursed silently. The Y

“What’s wrong? Mr. Leach, do you recognize this item?” The guests crowded around. “This... It’s identical! But... it shouldn’t be here!” Brandson Leach inspected the bead over and over. His expression shifted between shock and disbelief. The members of the Yeager family were visibly unsettled. Even Zack stepped forward. “Mr. Leach, have you seen this before? Do you know its origin?” Zack asked. “I just returned from Summerdale, where I attended a major auction a few days ago,” Brandson said. “It was quite the event. Many powerful figures from top-tier families were present…” Everyone perked up and hung on his every word. “The centerpiece of the auction was a small bead. It was said to be over 2000 years old. It once belonged to an emperor known as the First Emperor! “Legend has it that the emperor carried the bead with him throughout his life. He was never sick, possessed divine strength, and could slay enemies effortlessly. Even when mortally wounded, he miraculous

Dustin held the bead and stood in the center of the crowd under their stunned gazes. They were stunned by the bead’s value and its sudden appearance here. No one could comprehend how or why. A bead that had sparked a bidding war among top-tier elites in Summerdale Auction House was beyond priceless. Its value was indisputable. But had Stanley not bought it for 150 million? How had it traveled thousands of miles from the Kennedy family to a small city like Hattan? There was also the fact that Dustin claimed to have bought it for 80 million as a gift for Terry. Stanley had paid a massive price for the bead. Why would he sell it away? Even if he did sell it, why would he sell it at an amount that was not even half of its original price? It defied reason. Dustin was just a useless son-in-law of the Yeager family. How could he possibly have connections with someone of such high status? Too many unanswered questions hung in the air and left the guests bewildered. But

He refused. He turned down the olive branch the Yeager family extended to him. Zack’s face darkened once again. Warren and Percy glared at Dustin. They did not bother to lower themselves. They believed that offering him and Patricia some form of acceptance was a grand act of the Yeager family’s generosity. Yet he had the audacity not to reject it? Damien and Alex smiled faintly. Patricia let out a soft sigh. She had wanted to return to the Yeager family. When Zack made the offer, she had wished Dustin would agree. Unfortunately, he refused. But she did not blame Dustin. After all, receiving so much unfairness naturally left some resentment in him. Dustin returned to the banquet while Zack addressed the guests. He told them to enjoy themselves. However, his face remained icy. “Hey there, young man. I’m the head of Aurora Enterprises. It’s an honor to meet you. Cheers…” “Young man, that bead of yours is quite remarkable. Are you interested in similar items

Dustin exchanged pleasantries with the guests for a while before returning to Patricia’s side. “You lied to me again.” Patricia pouted and pinched him. “Ow! How can you be so ruthless?” Dustin pulled a dramatic face and acted like he was in pain. “Hmph!” Patricia huffed. “You said we’d just bring something from an antique shop as a gift. Where did that bead come from? Did you really spend 80 million on it?” “80 million was necessary. Since they paid 150 million for it, I couldn’t go too low, right?” Dustin said. If anyone else had heard that, they would have been apoplectic. Was he listening to himself? It was sold for 150 million, and he got it for 80 million. Was he still not satisfied? Moreover, the bead was actually worth more than 150 million. It was priced that way only because other elite families had done Stanley a massive favor. “You’re going to bankrupt yourself. Half of your grandfather’s inheritance is nearly gone. What will you do next?” Patricia
