The invitation itself is like an audition for those aiming to step-up in the hierarchy, it is at this stage where connections played a part and the banquet isn't just another glamourous night but an arena of pride and prejudice.
As the party started, Helena Keir graciously greeted her guest as she strut around like an empress looking all n.o.ble and elegant.
Meanwhile, Allister Keir is quietly drinking his wine looking uninterested as he sat along with a group of business investors. Since his demonic son took over the CEO position, he turned into a recluse and stopped caring about the company.
In spite of his age and poker-face, Allister still looked like his just on his late-30s and most people who isn't familiar with the Keir's, would mistake Elli Keir as the oldest brother and Allister as the youngest.
Even younger women of Yeri's age, were shameless enough and tried to flirt with Allister but ended up being ignored.
Time didn't change Allister's undying love and obsession to s.h.i.+n's mother, one can say it was the right love at the wrong time and her death almost drove him to insanity.
It is for this reason he wanted to meet his son's gf Yeri Zhi, Allister knew his son inherited his possessive nature and if he truly love this Yeri Zhi, then s.h.i.+n might be just repeating history if he would be too controlling.
"enjoying your time brother?"
Allister turned around and saw Elli Keir and his wife. He then stood up and casually greeted both of them.
"h.e.l.lo uncle Allister, how long has it been since we last saw you?" Hiro spoke, elli's first son.
"it's been a while Hiro..." Allister responded, his face devoid of any expression.
"Uncle, where's cousin s.h.i.+n? I haven't seen him yet" Hadi, elli's second son asked.
"he will be here soon." Allister briefly replied and gestured to leave, not enjoying playing family with snakes.
Elli's family seemed perfect and harmonious...a gorgeous wife and two filial sons who married women from reputable families, unbeknownst to the outsiders, Elli down to his two sons are abusers, they aren't just thirsty for power but there wives meant nothing but useful tools.
However these women aren't innocent either, they are equally greedy and stayed not because of love or fear, afterall being a Keir has a lot of privileges and ent.i.tlement.
Minutes later, there was a commotion amongst guest especially the women. s.h.i.+n along with Tristan can be seen at the garden entrance, both imposing and looking regal.
s.h.i.+n is wearing a navy blue suit while Tristan is donning a tan suit, if only looks could kill, s.h.i.+n can effortlessly transform a banquet into a scene of carnage.
Most women, especially young ones blushed for no reason and their legs turned wobbly, they were initially trying to seduce Allister Keir but instantly change their mind at the sight of the younger version of Allister.
Who cares about Calin w.a.n.g when she's not around yet! as long as a man is still single there's always a room for opportunity!
Noticing the love-stricken expression from women, Hiro sneered inwardly. 'b.a.s.t.a.r.d! what an attention-seeker, he purposely arrived late just to show-off!'
"tsk! such a poser, just like his mother." Hadi voice out while swirling his wine.
"shut-up! what if someone can hear you?" Hiro reprimanded his younger brother knowing his easy to incite.
"so what? isn't it true? i can't wait for the day the people would know his the son of a mis-"
"Hadi!" Elli Keir gaze at his son with stern warning. It's not the right time yet, if people finds out the CEO is a mistress son, it will only be an insult on their end.
On the other hand, s.h.i.+n is completely unaware of his chick-magnet talent nor did he glance at the women gazing at him with indecent thoughts clearly showing in their eyes.
Earlier his bodyguards reported that some random woman slandered his beloved Yeri, when he asked for the cctv record the mall reported that someone hacked on the security system and deleted all videos between 11am-2pm.
Very well! not only did they do it right under his premises but also involved his woman.
s.h.i.+n already started by firing the useless tech personnels and security staff at the mall, what happened is not only a display of incompetency but it had also imperiled the safety of all the customers.
Unless this matter is resolved, s.h.i.+n wanted to stay with Yeri, if not for Tristan's relentless coaxing he won't bother attending the witch's banquet.
"grandma happy birthday!" Tristan greeted Helena Keir.
"Tristan! oh my most handsome grandson!" Helena happily hug Tristan, "look at you! just like my beloved daughter mian."
"Thanks grandma, sorry were late though...something came up at work." Tristan explained.
"it's fine you don't have to explain..." madam Keir warmly smile but it swiftly turned to a bitter grin as she gaze at her b.a.s.t.a.r.d grandson. "so your here too...are you trying to show-off your authority by showing up late?"
"grandm" Tristan spoke but madam Keir cut him out.
"i know!" madam Keir said in a contemptuous tone. "well, did you at least bought some gift for me?"
s.h.i.+n who looked expressionless despite of madam Keir's sarcastic remarks gradually frowned. "you're already this old yet you still want a gift?"
Madam Keir felt a sudden rush of blood to her head, this disrespectful b.a.s.t.a.r.d really didn't change at all!!!
