Sean shivered in elation at the thought of killing Albert tonight! His father was right, Don Albert was Charlie's firearm in Aurous Hill! If they wanted to attack Charlie, they must first remove his firearm! Not only must they remove his firearm, but they also had to turn the firearm into their own! That way, the firearm would becthe bridgehead for the Webb family to march into Aurous Hill in the future! At that time, Charlie would pay the price with his own life for insulting them and tackling Sean's girl! The Quinton family and the White family would also pay the price for not taking the Webb family's side! Donald looked at Sean and said flatly, "You must learn to calm down and put up a poker face, don't let your true emotions show so easily on your face and body language." Sean quickly retracted his grin. "Okay, Dad, I understand!" "Good." Donald nodded, putting Charlie's matter behind him, and he asked, "Have you prepared the birthday gift for Lord Moore?" Sean nodded. "Yes, I have. I've inquired and found out that Lord Moore likes the works of Johannes Vermeer. He owns a tiny collection himself, so I specially asked someone to take a copy of The Geographer from our hgallery as the birthday gift. It is worth at least two to three billion, I believe he will like it!" 5 Donald nodded, a hint of satisfaction appearing in his eyes.

With the painting as a stepping stone, he was certain that it would open the Moore family's door and be more welcoming to their family, and they might even agree to the marriage proposal. 2 Finally, the birthday banquet had officially begun. 1 Lord Moore walked onto the small stage and thanked all the guests present for attending his 80-year-old birthday banquet. 1 After a short speech, the next agenda was the guests taking turns to congratulate Lord Moore and present their gifts.
Two bodyguards in black suits carried an imperial armchair onto the stage and assisted Lord Moore to sit on the chair.
Reuben's father, his third uncle, and fourth uncle stood up first and lined up on the stage.
They knelt and bowed before Lord Moore before offering their gifts one by one.

"The eldest son, Tyler Moore, presents a tropical island in the Maldives, worth 500 million!" 3 Loud gasps echoed through the banquet hall! Tyler was indeed generous as his gift was an island! Tyler was Reuben's father, Jasmine's uncle. 2
Tyler spoke to Lord Moore, "Father, I heard that you were not feeling well a few days ago, so I bought a tropical island for you so that you can go there to escape the cold when winter comes!" 1 Lord Moore smiled and nodded. "Good, good. Tyler, thank you!" "The third son, Branson Moore, presents a villa in Hawaii, worth 200 million!" 6
A middle-aged man who was much younger than Tyler said hurriedlyn "Father, I didn't experien "Ndidn't that that Tyler would give you an island, the villa really pales in comparison!" Lord Moore smiled warmly. "Nonsense, my son. I appreciate your thought. Thank you for your gift." "The fourth son, Anders Moore, presents a luxury yacht worth 150 million!" 5
Another middle-aged man hurriedly said, "Father, Branson and I bought the yacht and the villa for you. When you go to Hawait you can enjoy a day of two on the yacht." Then, he said complementing, "But we didn't expect that Tyler would give you an island! We can send you to the Maldives with the yacht!" 1 Lord Moore laughed. "Good, good, when winter comes, we can go to the island in the Maldives for a vacation!" X
