Donald felt quite pleased with Cain’s demeanor. He gave a slight nod before stepping inside The Heaven Springs.


    Albert had already organized everything at The Heaven Springs, ensuring that the staff was fully prepared and all the dishes for the banquet dinner that evening were ready. Meanwhile, the other guests, invited to the banquet, had arrived early and were waiting for Donald’s arrival.


    Albert, Graham, and Zeke shared a simr stance regarding the Webb family. They were not there to tter Donald or seek any favors, but they also had no intention of offending him or the Webb family.


    This was why they epted the Webb family’s invitation to the banquet dinner that night.


    In fact, the three had thoroughly discussed their approach beforehand. They had met privately to strategize, deciding to show the Webb family some respect and politeness toward Donald, while still adhering to Charlie’s directives.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    As for the heads of other families, their main goal for attending the banquet was to endear themselves to the Webb family.


    No matter the circumstances, it was an undeniable truth that the Webb family stood at the pinnacle of society in the South Region. To many smaller and medium-sized families, they were like a towering, fruitden tree, and it was only natural for the lesser families to wish to cling to it as tightly as possible.


    When Donald and his son, Sean, entered the Diamond Room, the heads of the other families immediately rose to greet and wee them.


    Among them, the head of the Zimmerman family was the first to shower praise on Donald. “Mr. Webb, you truly are an exceptionally talented individual. Your son shares your remarkable abilities and undoubtedly belongs to the most prestigious family in the South Region! Both of you radiate an extraordinary charm and presence!”


    The head of the Kline family also nodded in agreement, adding, “Absolutely! I’ve never met Mr. Webb before, but now that I have the honor, I must say that you surpass even the impressive rumors I’ve heard about you!”


    Donald acknowledged their ttery with a slight nod, surveying the room with a dignified expression.


    It was evident that everyone present in the private room was a notable figure in Aurous Hill. The heads of the Zimmerman, Kline, and Lloyd families were clearly trying their utmost to impress and tter him.


    In contrast, Zeke, Graham, and Albert remained calm and collected. They disyed indifferent expressions but maintained a polite demeanor toward Donald out of courtesy, without offering any genuinepliments.


    Despite his silence, Donald felt a simmering displeasure toward Zeke.


    Meanwhile, Cain trailed closely behind Donald, almost like a devoted grandson. Upon spotting Albert as he entered the private room, Cain couldn’t help but fix him with a re full of resentment.


    In Cain’s eyes, Albert was the architect of his troubles!


    His son had be aughingstock in Aurous Hill, branded with the words “pathetic jerk” etched on his forehead thanks to Albert.


    The other joke circting in Aurous Hill was about Kian, the Webb family’s second son, who was humorously dubbed a “poop-eating monster.”


    However, fear of the Webb family’s power kept people from mocking these incidents publicly; they could onlyugh about them in private. Conversely, the Lloyd familycked the strength and influence of the Webb family, so the unfortunate situation surrounding Cain’s son, Marcus, became public fodder for ridicule among many.


    Just two days ago, while Cain was out, he overheard two ten-year-old boys arguing. One called the other a pathetic jerk, only for the second boy to retort, “I’m not a pathetic jerk! Marcus Lloyd is the real pathetic jerk!”<fn60c3> ??? ????? ???????s ??? ?????s??? ?? F?nd-Novel</fn60c3>


    Furious, Cain rushed over and pped the boy, sending him to the ground in shock. When the boy’s father confronted Cain, he ordered his driver and bodyguard to retaliate, resulting in the man receiving a brutal beating thatnded him in the hospital.


    Despite this, mocking remarks about Marcus continued to circte in Aurous Hill, and Cain felt powerless to stop them.


    Moreover, there were numerous individuals in Aurous Hill whom Cain could not afford to offend.


    This constant humiliation left Cain seething with rage. Had Albert not been significantly more powerful than him, he would have stormed in with his men to exact revenge.


    It was this simmering anger that surged within Cain as he faced Albert, his eyes aze as he encountered his adversary.


    Truthfully, Albert hadn’t anticipated seeing Cain at the banquet. Donald had only instructed him to secure a table for the dinner without providing a list of guests.
