Chapter 450 Let's get down to business first
As soon as Luis said so, the eyes of Miles and Matilda suddenly turned cold.
These words were too insulting, and Miles, who originally wanted to save face for Luis, immediately turned cold.
Miles said, "Mr. King, we the young people, don't do it like you do. Don't be so disgusting."
These words directly made Luis' face darken.
Luis snapped, "Kid! You are so presumptuous!"
Miles was already aroused into anger, but when he heard Luis dare to make such an accusation, he snorted coldly and said, "You family has a banquet today, and Hayden family has showed our respect. Mr. King, you spoke rudely to my partner, so malicious and arrogant. I just defend her and I don't know why you think it's presumptuous."
"You!" Luis glared angrily. Probably because he was used to being prestige in front of the big families in the past, now that Miles was so merciless, he thought he was totally insulted.
Burning with anger, he was like a clown, which was disgusting.
Matilda would not show any respect for Luis. If Miles hadn't defended her, she would not have been able to bear the insult.
It was Miles' actions that moved her.
Miles gently stroked Matilda's arm with his fingertips, implying that he will settle this matter and let her be calm.
Matilda was happy and at ease, just waiting to see how they would continue.
What happened to them had naturally attracted the attention of the guests present. They popped their heads in and looked about, guessing.
Matilda noticed Kate's expression out of the corner of her eyes, and understood her complacency in just a moment.
Even if Matilda came with Miles, she was bullied.
Matilda's eyes flickered slightly, glancing at Kate and Luis vaguely.
Kate was proud and said in a timely manner, "Hey, grandpa, what are you doing? We still have to rely on Mr. Hayden in the future. Are you not afraid that he will make things hard for you?"
Luis took the opportunity to step down, saying directly, "The young people today are not as strong as we were at that time. They're easy to get angry with just a few words."
They seemed to take advantage of the situation to ease the atmosphere, but his words made the atmosphere tense again.
Miles said, "It turns out that Miss Richardson has recognized Mr. King as grandfather. I didn't check it just now. I thought you're old but vigorous."
As soon as he said so, not to mention how ugly Luis and Kate's faces were, there was a sound of gasping for air behind them.
In fact, if Miles didn't make it clear, everyone would have guessed.
Everyone knew that, what was most notable about Luis, rather than his bandit origin, was his love affairs.
Except for the five wives who died indirectly because of him, it was said that Luis probably had hundreds of concubines.
Moreover, they all had one characteristic, that was, they looked very much like Luis' first wife.
Of course, this was not to say how much Luis loved his first wife, but just to say that his aesthetic was very unified. From the time he was a boy to the present, all the women who had caught his eyes had always had that appearance.
When Kate showed up, she had been discussed a lot, that was, she looked exactly like Luis' first wife.
Certainly, those who knew Kate well naturally understood that she was not born with this look.
However, this matter had never been discussed openly.
In particular, today was Luis' big banquet. Even though everyone had doubts in their hearts, they still showed Luis a great deal of respect and didn't say a word about it.
Unexpectedly, Miles dared to be so bold, and directly mocked and sneered, without saving Luis any face.
What shocked everyone even more was that even though the expression on Luis' face didn't look good, and the anger in his eyes seemed to burn Miles away, people still caught the unnatural flash of him. Everyone understood what this meant.
No one can accept the shock of this situation.
Even though they all came from famous families and were used to all kinds of dirty things, they were still disgusted.
Luis heard those noises. How disgusted and mocking they were. They almost had his face pressed down and beaten.
And all of this was done by this ignorant man.
Luis said, "Mr. Hayden, today you came here on behalf of the Hayden family. So you're rude and swearing?"
When Miles heard Luis say this, his sense of ridicule grew stronger.
He said, "Mr. King, it seems that you have retired for too long. You don't understand the current rules. The one who provokes first is cheap. Mr. King, remember these words. The way back will be fine a little bit."
"You!" Luis was furious, holding the crutch with both hands, and smashing it to the ground, "You have no rules!"
"Mr. King, what you said is interesting." A familiar voice came from behind them. "Mr. Hayden is very well-behaved. Mr. King, don't just rely on your old age to think it's up to you to make the rules." Miles and Matilda turned their heads together and saw that it was none other than River.
He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses today, like a refined rascal.
Matilda quickly sorted out the current situation.
People came here today were all from prominent and prestigious families in Innisrial. Even if they were not the head of the family, they had sent representatives of distinguished status.
It was just that no one would have thought that River would come here.
Miles and River nodded slightly as a gesture, but they didn't look close.
On the contrary, River's eyes fell on Matilda's face, full of interest, "Miss Duncan, you're here too."
Matilda nodded calmly, fully playing the role as Miles' female companion today. She was well-behaved and sensible, knowing her place.
River looked at Matilda with interest. The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously, and he said softly, "I thought you would yearn for freedom, but I never thought that there would be a day when you would be bound."
It was already obvious about what he said, to put her and Miles on the same side.
Matilda still didn't change her expression, but looked at River with unfriendly look.
River quit while he was ahead, and will not hold on to Matilda.
He looked at Luis, but assumed the attitude of a humble and sensible junior, "Mr. King, you don't mind if I come here uninvited?"
Luis was already livid at the moment. He certainly didn't send an invitation letter to River, but he didn't expect this person to come here so cheekily.
This made him very angry. His villa did not block a junior.
Moreover, what annoyed him even more was that he didn't know when Miles got involved with River.
It actually made River dare to be so bold and mock him.
Luis held grudges with the two ignorant young men now.
In the future, they would see.
Kate quickly said to Luis, "Grandpa, the guests are almost here. Let's get down to business first."
Luis followed Kate's words and said, "Yes, we have to get down to business."
With that, the two stepped onto the stage that had been set up.
Luis was already over eighty years old, but was still in good spirits. And the speed and accent of his speech did not appear to be old-fashioned at all, but very imposing.
He stood in the center of the stage and said, "Today, I invited all my friends here because I have two things to announce. Everyone knows that my fate is not good. My wives passed away one after another, leaving no children. Now I have hit it off with Kate. I recognized her as my granddaughter, and from now on, the property of King family will be passed on to her. This is the first thing."
Everyone was surprised by this, and some had already expected that Kate would have to be announced as a granddaughter in order for the outside world to recognize it.
However, no one would have thought that Luis would be so generous that he would hand over all his property to Kate.
This can't help but make everyone wonder what kind of means Kate had to make Luis do this.
Or, what hidden secrets did Luis have to announce this matter so loudly.
Luis ignored everyone's whispered reactions, and continued, "Originally, since my family has withdrawn from the stage of history, I never thought about coming back. However, I am old and I don't have much time to take care of my granddaughter. Today's return is to hope that all friends can consider the past friendship and give convenience to my granddaughter."
What he said was very humble.
However, the more it was like this, the more it made people feel that there must be something tricky behind it.
A guy like Luis, with all the fanfare, can't just be paving the way for Kate.
Although everyone responded on the surface, they already had their own guesses.
They had to guard against it.
