Chapter 0017

“A mahogany casket?!” The entire banquet hall was in shock.

What was Alexander thinking, giving Donovan a birthday gift like this?! If he showed no repentance, Donovan would never show mercy!

Donovan’s face was so ashen that everyone thought he might have a heart attack.

“You are out of your mind, Alexander!” Donovan roared, his face contorted in

anger.

What a way to ruin his seventieth birthday. The feast had not even begun, and Alexander had completely disrupted it. This was simply unacceptable!

Alexander would pay for this!

“Sir Chesire, it seems you’re quite fond of this mahogany casket,” mused Alexander as he stared at Donovan’s livid expression proudly. Then, he continued, “My wife and my daughter suffered for five years. After years of military service defending the North, I’m finally back. How do you feel about that? Donovan, it’s your turn to speak!”

Donovan was fuming, trembling as he shouted, “You’re outrageous! Alexander, do you really think I won’t kill you?”

Around him, many of the Chesire family relatives, as well as the closest guests, joined in with accusations and berated Alexander.

“Alexander, you’ve gone too far!”
