NovelEnglishChapter 314
Looking thrilled, Helen and James exited the hotel to where Liam and Demi were waiting for them in the car.
"Dad, Mom, how did it go?" Demi asked with anticipation written all over her face.
Helen spoke with a smirk, "Of course it went well! We're talking about your father and I! Well, Young Master
Hughes was very polite to us. He made us tea and was very welcoming.
As the successor to a prestigious family, he's indeed different from ordinary folks. In terms of the way he spoke
and his demeanor, he is a far cry from those bumpkins in Eastcliff. Demi was elated to hear that. "Seriously? D-
Does that mean Young Master Hughes will be my brother-in-law in the future? That's fantastic!
With him as my brother-in-law, let's see who will have the guts to be rude within Eastcliff in the future! Mom,
please bringalong tonight because | have to seize the chance to chat with my future brother in-law and bond
with him!"

Helen shot her a supercilious glance and turned her down. "No way! Why do you need to be there? Tonight is
very important for your sister and you'd better not interfere!"
With her lips pouted, Demi persisted, "Mom, | just want to be there to put in sgood words for Sasha. Judging
from Sasha's personality, she might not be respectful to Young Master Hughes even if she is willing to be there
tonight.
If the dinner is ruined by her attitude, the hard work you guys did will go in vain! Witharound, | can at least
help with mediating the dispute and making the atmosphere less awkward!"
James nodded and agreed, "Demi's right. It's only reasonable for Demi to be there because Sasha is her sister.
The dinner later will be the first official meeting our family has with Young Master Hughes."
It was only then did Helen agree. "Okay, let's do it that way. Liam, remember to cand pick us up later at
night."
Reluctantly, Liam nodded and said, "Okay. I'll go back and get changed."
Helen glared at him and questioned, "Why do you need to get changed? You're not attending the dinner and just
need to drive us there."
Liam was dumbfounded. "I-I don't have to be there?"
Helen snapped, "That's right! Young Master Hughes only wants to meet the people of our family. As our son-in-
law, it's not appropriate for you to be there.
What's more, your reputation is bad because you used to mingle with gangsters and thugs from the streets. The
Hughes is a prestigious family and they only want to be associated with families with a clean background. You
might spoil our plan if you are there, do you understand?"
Liam was infuriated by Helen's comment. Damn it, now you think my reputation is bad? Back then when your
family were down in the dumps, the two of you literally beggedto marry your daughter! Every t| pulled
the strings to help you guys settle your problems, you would spread good words aboutaround and tell
everyone | was the best son-in-law one could get!

Now that you guys have found another man from a prestigious family as your son-in-law, I'm suddenly deemed
as someone who will embarrass the family. If | had not been eyeing Sasha back then, | wouldn't even have
married a girl like Demi! Of course, he could only think this.
The Cunninghams were no longer the family which were down in the dumps before and he had no choice but to
put up with them.
Demi, who did not see any problem with the arrangement, concluded, "Mom is right. After driving us to the
restaurant later, you can find another spot to grab something to eat but don't go too far away because you will
have to pick us up after we are done with the dinner.
Although our family isn't as prestigious as the Hughes, our image will be affected adversely if people know that
we don't have a driver. Liam, please don't screw this up, alright?"
Liam nodded but no one noticed the bleakness in his eyes.
Demi went on to discuss with her parents how they should dress up for the occasion, and no one cared about
Liam's feelings.
