    “I swallow your sister!”


    Sam retorted icily, “You think you can just talk about Chairman Sun like that? If he finds out you’re lying, you’ll be the one in trouble!”


    Charlie chuckled and replied, “If you don’t believe me, feel free to call Chairman Sun and ask him if he personally gave me this fan.”


    “Pfft!” Sam scoffed, “Even as the young master of the Thomas family, I can’t just contact Chairman Sun directly. Do you really think I can confirm its authenticity with him? I’m here, and you’re just pretending!”<fn9f0a> Read full story at fι?dnοvel</fn9f0a><h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Charlie smiled casually, “Talking about this is pointless. It’s better to have a professionale in to verify it.”


    “No need for that,” Sam snickered. “I specifically invited Trevor, the eldest son of the Sun family, toe today. If what you’re saying is true, then this fan belongs to him, and you’ll know the truth soon enough!”


    Charlieughed even harder at this. “Alright, if you’re waiting for the eldest son of the Sun family, then let’s wait for him to arrive.”


    Sam was taken aback; Charlie didn’t seem the least bit intimidated. If he were in Charlie’s shoes, he would be rushing to hide, worried about being caught by Mr. Sun.


    But Charlie showed no signs of fear at all, which left Sam puzzled. Why was this kid so self-assured?


    Even though Charlie had some connections in Aurous Hill, it was hard to believe he could really be linked to Orrin, the head of the Sun family—one of Eastcliff’s top ns!


    Not even Sam’s father could secure such a rtionship, so how could a son-inw from a small ce like Aurous Hill have ties to Orrin? It seemed impossible!


    Just then, someone shouted, “Mr. Sun has arrived!”


    Suddenly, everyone’s attention sharpened.


    Even Loreen’s grandparents quickly became serious.


    Trevor, though just a young man in his twenties, was a significant figure at the birthday banquet for the Thomas family. Mrs. Thomas felt the need to be polite and even ttering towards him.


    As Trevor entered with a haughty demeanor, all eyes were on him.


    Loreen’s father and uncle followed closely, their faces stered with smiles as they bowed and ttered him, clearly eager to please.


    Initially, Trevor hadn’t nned on attending this gathering. His rtionship with Sam was merely cordial, and while the Kilgore family was currently stronger than the Thomas family, it was still dwarfed by the Sun family’s prestige. Trevor wasn’t particrly interested in Sam.


    However, he decided to show up because he had heard from Sam about a stunning sister who had just returned from Aurous Hill and wanted an introduction.


    Even though Trevor’s situation wasplicated, he still held onto the youthful fantasies and desires for romance.


    This inclination is quite natural, as history has shown that even eunuchs in ancient pces would often interact with the pcedies.


    Moreover, Trevor had long heard that Loreen, the granddaughter of the Thomas family, was exceptionally beautiful, making this an opportune moment to see her.


    As soon as Trevor arrived, Loreen’s grandfather stepped forward, beaming with respect as he said, “Master Sun, I didn’t realize you wereing! Please forgive us if we overlooked you!”


    Trevor casually waved his hand, responding, “Sam mentioned it was his grandma’s premiere and invited me, so I came to join in.”


    Loreen’s grandfather quickly replied, “Master Sun, your presence here is no interruption at all!”
