Chapter 94 An Exclusive Event

 

Before I’ve even entered the mansion, the insults I’d expected have already started!

 

 

In the blink of an eye, Jonathan’s expression went chilly.

 

The scenes from three years ago played in his mind once more.

 

“What has my dressing got to do with you?” Regarding Ezra coldly, he drawled, “Besides, I don’t think you have the right to decide whoever is allowed to attend the Smith family’s annual party, no? Has Hugo gotten up in years that you’re now the patriarch of the Smith family?”

that, he grew so livid that steam was coming out of his ears. But just when his words fell, a sharp female voice rang out from the direction of the Smith mansion. “What’s all this commotion? I can hear you all making a racket out there from a few dozen meters away! Why is the lot of you squabbling here on such an occasion today? Are you all deliberately making a joke out of the Smith
