To Live an Eternal Life

Chapter 54: It's Not Too Late to Offer The Betrothal Presents

"Who are you?"

Spencer turned around angrily and questioned.

The one who spoke was not Charles, nor Isabella, but a man in a suit who came from outside.

The man laughed loudly and said coldly, "It's only been half a month, and you don't recognize me, the

people of the Hunt family really have a poor memory. On the day of Old Lady Hunt's birthday, wasn't I

the one who came with betrothal presents?"

When he said so, Spencer had recalled something.

Charles sitting on the front raised his eyebrows, and then loosened up, watching the man with interest.

"So it's you, but you are just a subordinate who is sent to offer betrothal presents, the master is here,

how dare you to be so arrogant?"

"Master? Ridiculous. Mrs. Hunt did not listen clearly to what I just said, the bride-price was not offered

by that Mr. Lloyd, but by someone else."

At once, the Hunt Family was stirred up.

Spencer's face turned red with anger and shouted, "Don't talk nonsense, who is it if is not Mr. Lloyd?

You, a subordinate, how dare you are offending your master?"

"Mrs. Hunt has an ear problem? I repeat here, that Mr. Lloyd on the seat cheated you as the one who

offered the pride-price and came to the Hunt Family to pick a young lady. Firstly, he is disrespectful to

my master; secondly, he is treating the Hunt family like pigs; thirdly, he is a despicable and shameless

hypocrite!"

Well said.

Charlie beside Katherine secretly gave a thumbs up to that man. This person was obviously sent by

Jaiden, with a smart brain.

The Hunt family were all whispering. Spencer was at a loss and Axel pulled her aside.

Old Lady Hunt stared at the man in the suit and said coldly, "Although the Hunt Family is only a small

family, but not everyone can come to humiliate. Without making things clear, I will never let you leave."

"Old Lady Hunt, what I said is true."

The middle-aged man was calm and humble and looked at Charles and said, "Mr. Lloyd, you are a

duke in Jinling, to do such a shameless thing - pretending as the man offering betrothal presents is so

cheap."

"Actually, it's very simple to prove it."

"Can Mr. Lloyd name a few kinds of presents that you said you have offered."

Everyone's eyes fixed on him, but Charles did not panic, sipping a mouthful of tea, trying to look as

decent as he could.

Katherine frowned and said in her heart, "this guy, doesn’t he have a second plan?"

"Indeed, I am not the one who offered the betrothal presents."

The crowd exploded again, surprisingly, he was really a liar.

Old Lady Hunt slapped the table and stood up, "Mr. Lloyd, you are so deceitful. It’s so humiliating to my

Hunt family, what do you think we are!"

"Old Lady Hunt, calm down, listen to me."

Charles helped Old Lady Hunt sit down, he glanced at Katherine, with an odd smile on his face, then

he gave a wink to his bodyguard.

The bodyguard took out his phone and sent a message.

Three minutes later, only six men were seen carrying three large boxes and coming into the lobby.

"What is this?" Old Lady Hunt asked.

"Just now it is a joke, but actually it is also a test for the Hunt Family's girls. For example, that Miss

Maggie just now is not good in nature, so naturally she can't be my love."

Charles clapped his Hands and the three boxes were opened.

At once, the golden light rushed to the sky.

The jewels were dazzling and glorious, and there was a big box full of cashes.

Two people with redwood sticks to carry the box, you can imagine how heavy it could be. There were

more ten million dollars.

The Hunt family members were all startled, looking at the golden and silvery jewelry, with their jaws

dropped.

His betrothal presents were way more expensive that the previous one.

"It's just betrothal presents, it's nothing. It's not too late to give betrothal presents. Do I look sincere

now, grandmother are you satisfied?"

Charles stood with his hands in the air, his handsome face was radiant, everything was under his

control. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Axel and his wife couldn't stop smiling.

Katherine was a little panicked, instinctively grabbed Charlie’s hand. No one noticed the coldness in

Charlie’s eyes.

Very well, it turned out that this was his second plan.

After a short period of silence, Old Lady Hunt took a deep breath, she was in a better mood and said.

"Mr. Lloyd has come well prepared, now it is not too late to give your betrothal presents."

"Grandma, I... "

"Shut up!"

Old Lady Hunt scolded, scaring Katherine to back off.

"I'm not dead yet, I'm still in charge of this family."

Old Lady Hunt's voice was stern, and her cane struck the ground, causing the Hunt Family members to

tremble.

"I have decided, tomorrow, you two should get a divorce."

Spencer and Axel cheered, and as parents, they didn't notice the despair in Katherine's eyes. Perhaps

even if they found out, they would not care.

Almost everyone in the Hunt Family was blinded by money.

"Sister." Isabella's eyes were red and she choked slightly.

Just then, that Mr. Lloyd came with fast steps.

"Katherine, I will treat you well."

He comforted Katherine, as his head was close to Charlie, smiling grimly and saying in a low voice,

"Fighting me, you're still a bit young. What's the feeling now, are you happy that your wife is going to be

my woman?"

"Do you want to die?"

"Furious? Angry? That's exactly what I want to see. Oh, you want to kill me, I'll wait."

Charles snickered, he was not afraid at all.

In the province, who dared to touch him, unless the one wanted to ruin his own family.

However, he did not know that he had provoked the wrong people. Death scythe had already on his

neck, black and white unusually ghost had come to hook the soul of his.

Can Katherine’s contact to the Lloyd family make the Hunt Family rise again?

Old Lady Hunt was thinking about this when suddenly, Ewan on the side interrupted her thoughts,

"Grandma, it's your phone."

"Who is it?"

"I don't know, an unfamiliar number."

Old Lady Hunt picked up and before she could speak, a cold voice came from the phone, "I am Jaiden,

you should have heard of my name."

The richest man in Z City!

Old Lady Hunt was startled and got up and went to the back hall.

There was no one here, so she spoke in a gentle tone and asked, "Jaiden, I have the honor of hearing

your speaking at the Business Exchange Meeting in J City back then. I wonder what can I help you

know?"

"I don't like the Lloyd family in Jinling, and I loathe Charles Lloyd even more. The Hunt Family had

better not agreed to his marriage proposal, otherwise, I, will do something out of the ordinary, and that

would be bad for both of us."

"Sh, what?"

Old Lady Hunt was baffled, but the phone had already hung up.

Ewan quietly slipped in and saw that Old Lady Hunt's face was not right through and asked, "Grandma,

what's wrong, who's calling?"

"Nothing."

The old woman's face was stony, and before she took a few steps, the phone rang again.

She trembled.

Looking at the number, she realized it wasn't the last one. After picking up, she asked, "Hello, who is

it?"

"Jackson."

Old Lady Hunt's pupils shrank and she was scared, "Jackson."

"I'll be straightforward, I heard that Mr. Lloyd in Jinling came to your door to propose a marriage, and I,

Jackson, have a friendship with the Xiang family in Jinling. The Xiang family and the Lloyd family are

rivals, so naturally I won't let the Lloyd family get what they want. I hope Old Lady Hunt will reject this

marriage."

Jackson’s name was known to everyone in J City.

Even hearing his voice from the phone, you could feel his frightening power.

"I just took care of Elliott, and now I am the king in J City. What I need now is to punish someone as a

warning to others. And I hope the Hunt Family does not become the one that I punish first."

Beep beep beep.

The phone was hung up, Old Lady Hunt could not come back to her senses for a long time.

Ewan listened clearly on the side, he didn't want to see Katherine become rich, now it was the right

time to do something.

"Grandma, this is not good. The man is Jackson, even the most powerful officer would be polite to him,

we can't offend him."

Old Lady Hunt shouted, "Not only him, there is also the richest person in Z City - Jaiden."

"Really?"

Ewan hurriedly added, "Grandma, I think it is better to turn Mr. Lloyd down. The Lloyd family is a big

family, how could they like our Hunt family. Katherine is your granddaughter after all, you can't be too

cruel to her."

"Heh, when did you feel sorry for Katherine."

"Grandma, I'm thinking of the Hunt Family."

Ewan continued to say, "Grandma, think about it, if Katherine is forced by you to marry into the Lloyd

family, will she still be grateful and help the Hunt Family rise? It's impossible."

"She has a grudge against you, and we have been suppressing their family. The day when Katherine

becomes a phoenix is the day when our Hunt family will be destroyed, she will destroy our family!"

"She dares!" Old Lady Hunt's face was frozen.

Ewan laughed bitterly, "Grandma, are you going to gamble with the entire Hunt family! Even if

Katherine doesn't retaliate, the richest man, Jaiden, the emperor on the earth, Jackson, how are you

going to cope with them? Will the Lloyd family help us?"

"Distant water can't put out a nearby fire, in J City, even the Lloyd family can not help us either."

After hearing all these, the Old Lady Hunt wavered, with her forehead overflowing with sweats.

Ewan felt that there was a hope, his was overjoyed, "Grandma, please think deeply, it’s no good to walk

to fast. How about refusing Charles’s proposal to win the favor of the richest man and the emperor on

the earth, by then should you worry about the rise of the Hunt Family?!"

In an instant, Old Lady Hunt was enlightened.

She gave a relief, looking at Ewan and nodded happily, "My good boy, you are a man now, a smart

man."
