Chapter 1281 Yelzog was dressed in a sharply pressed suit coupled with leather shoes. Even his hairstyle was trendy. He and Isaac were like polar opposites ‘Urgh, | just don’t get it. They're almost the sage! Why is there such a striking difference? God, this is so embarrassing,’ Isadora thought to herself.
Hearing his daughter's words, Isaac glanced at Isadora, obviously displeased. He scoffed. “What do you mean by that? Am | embarrassing you? I'm telling you, nobody in this room has the guts to make fun of me!” Isaac was known as the Lord of Henley. He was sometimes referred to as Lord Isaac of the Nine States.
He becone of the top businessmen in Henley after graduating at the age of 21.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt the age of 40, he expanded his business and was now the main player in the business sector in all nine states of Henley.
For that reason, even the Ten Families in Capiton treated him with respect.
“Arthur, why don’t you take them to their seats? | need to attend to other guests.” Harold smiled warmly at Yelzog and said, “I'll be taking my leave now, Mr. Blanco. | have other guests to attend to. | hope you'll enjoy the party!” Yelzog returned his smile and said, “Sure. Thanks for thgospitality!” Arthur gestured to the nearby tables and said, “This way!” Harold then walked up to Isaac and greeted, “Isaac Sloan! Long tno see!” Taking off his sunglasses, Isaac flashed Harold a smile and said, “It's been a long tindeed. How's it going?” Gazing at Isadora, a smile slowly formed on Harold's face. “I assshe’s your daughter?” Harold had successfully set Arthur up with Rosella. He believed a marriage was on the way.
Driven by the lust for power, Harold reckoned the Freemans would gain even more social influence if he was able to set up another arranged marriage with the Sloans.
Isaac cursed Harold silently upon sensing his ulterior motive. Keeping a polished smile plastered on his face, he said, “Yeah, she is. Isadora, where are your manners? Hurry up and greet Mr. Freeman!” Isadora kept her voice devoid of emotion as she said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Freeman.” Hearing her response, Issac’s face fell as he questioned, “What's with that attitude?” Inwardly, he was thinking, “What is she thinking?! We're in Xanthalos, not Henley City, for Christ's sake! | know she doesn’t like the Freemans, but can’t she at least put on a smile? Urgh. Even I'm putting on a front. Can't she be a bit more cooperative?’ However, Harold was not offended by Isadora as he had already regarded her as his grandaughter- in-law.
Instead, he laughed and said, “It's okay, Mr. Sloan. As a matter of fact, | find her personality quite refreshing!” With a wave of his hand, Harold gestured for Hershel to cover. He asked, “Why don’t you take them to their seats, Hershel? Table 3!” Hershel was Thames’ grandson.
He had reached the great-grandmaster realm at the age of 28.
He was wearing a tailcoat and slacks, and his hair was neatly combed back, giving off a classy vibe.

Hershel walked toward them, bent slightly with a hand on his chest, and said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Sloan. Please, allowto take you to your seats.” Isadora was disgusted at his behavior.
‘What kind of etiquette is this?! Who still does this nowadays?!‘ she thought.
Taking her seat, Rosella glanced at her from the next table and sneered, “Like father, like daughter. What's with that outfit? This is such an important occasion. At least wear a proper dress!” Stunned at the sudden comment, Isadora turned and gave Rosella a quick scan from head to toe.
She then sneered, “I was wondering who was making such petty remarks. Turns out it's the CEO of Amazon Group.
“Didn’t your company nearly go bankrupt after losing like what, 50 billion dollars last year? | just don’t get it. Mr.
Blanco is such a decent man. How did his daughter end up like this? Are you sure he’s your father?” A hint of anger flashed across Rosella’s eyes as she said, “It’s only 50 billion dollars. I've been the CEO of Amazon Group since | was 19.
“If I'm not mistaken, you're just the planning director of Universal Group, no? What's there to be proud about? You should really start treating people with more respect!”
