No! Impossible! It’s absolutely impossible! Who in the world does Skylar think he is to be able to
convince all of them to show up?
Yvonne and the others were in a complete mess as that thought flashed through their minds. However,
before they could do anything, Dudley led the others to Skylar and Yulia as everything that happened
just moments ago repeated itself.
“Greetings, Mr. and Mrs. Stone! I was told that today is Mr. Sue’s seventieth birthday and I’ve prepared
a gift for him. Please forgive me for showing up uninvited.”
Dudley greeted Skylar and Yulia politely while the others followed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis immediately shocked everyone as Calvert, Yvonne, Georgia and the others were all stunned by
the situation as waves of mixed emotions washed over them.
They could not believe that the remaining three families were all there to greet Skylar and this situation
was so outrageous that none of them was able to accept it.
Meanwhile, Calvert began to breathe heavily while his mind was in a complete mess.
Nolan and Yvonne on the other hand felt incredibly nervous as waves of unrelenting anxiety washed
over them. This overwhelmed them so much that their legs began to tremble uncontrollably. If they
were not focused on keeping themselves standing, they would have already collapsed on the ground.
The situation was too terrifying for them to handle.
Although Homer and others were there for Skylar as well, their arrivals were still something they could
somewhat accept. However, the person who was greeting Skylar so politely then was none other than
the most powerful man in the city. Three of the most powerful families in the coutry were all being so
polite to Skylar.
Even Jeffery and Faye were shocked and nervous when that happened. Although Nimrod was able to
remain calm, he was also quite taken aback by what happened.
Both the Shepard and Currey family’s power combined would be more than enough to surpress any
reach their family’s reputation could have. Even if they were all equals, he would still need to back
down when both the Shepard and Currey families were present.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe could not believe that Skylar only replied to them with a smile without saying much in front of such
overwhelmingly powerful people. Moreover, they seemed to be afraid and were revering Skylar as soon
as Skylar nodded at them. It almost seemed like Skylar was their boss. He had never seen anything
like this before despite living for so long. He could not understand just who exactly Skylar was to be so
highly respected by them.
However, while Nimrod was lost in his thoughts, Waylon suddenly turned around to drag someone from
the crowd as he said, “I want you to kneel and apologize to Mr. Stone!”
That man was none other than the eldest grandson of his family, Lucas Currey.The same person who
showed up to bully Harper and his wife two days ago. Since Waylon was seething with rage, Lucas
dared not fight back as he immediately knelt in front of Skylar.
