Chapter 7 You-again
You again The Hemsworth Family are also invited to the Greenfield's banquet. The Qin family might be a low-key family. however, their impact on the business world is quite big. Befriending them won't be a bad thing.
Grandmother Hemsworth, Edward's Mother(Rachael), Edward, and the old Lady last child, Emilia decided to represent the Xie family today.
Dressed in outfits that say nothing but elegance and luxury, the Hemsworth family arrived at the Greenfield mansion. They brought two cars with them: Grandmother Hemsworth and Emilia used one while Edward's Mother and Edward used the other car.
As they got out of the car, Jeff's cab arrived at the same time. Edward was the first to notice Jeff and was instantly surprised to see him.
However, being that tricky boy. he composed himself and put on his facade. He ran towards Jeff. hugging him tightly like a spoilt brat "Brother! T missed you so much" Edward hugged Jeff tightly. shedding crocodile tears The other Hemsworth members stared in awe, wondering why Jeff was there.
Edward grabbed Jeffs hand, his back facing the Xie members. "What are you doing here.
‘brother? Did Liam invite you? Or are you here to beg him for mercy? I would advise you to 20 back and think carefully. Don't ruin today for me. for the Hemsworth family." Jeff smirked, grabbing Edward's other hand. "Let go of my hand while I'm being nice. Or do you want me to break your hand? I think it would be better though. I would rather have my ‘blood wasted than to have it flow in your body." Edward's gaze darkened and he immediately let go of Jeff's hand. Just as he let go. he grabbed Jeff's other hand, wearing his pretentious expression "Grandmother is here, brother. You should greet her and maybe beg her to take you in again.
You look so thin!" He dragged Jeff to the other Hemsworth family. an innocent smile on his face.
"Grandmother! Brother is here to greet you" Edward pulled Jeff's hand.
“What are you doing here?" Rachael asked, her eyes holding some hostility. "If you are here to cause trouble, just know that the Hemsworth family won't be held responsible. You are no longer pat of us!" "Mom!" Edward called, trying to stop his mother from saying further.
However, Grandmother Hemsworth picked up from where Rachael stopped, her wrinkles appearing even more ugly.
"Are you here to take back the envelope you left?" The Old Lady said. "You think the money you left is enough for all we did for you, ungrateful bastard? If you are here to beg me to take you back, you better don't disgrace yourself and leave now!” Jeff stared at the Old lady, a mocking smile on his lips. His gaze shifts to Edward's hand that was holding his. Yanking Edward's hand away, the latter fell to the floor, an ugly expression appearing on his face.
“You like making assumptions, don't you?" Jeff chuckles mockingly. "Me? Beg to go back to the Hemsworth family? That hell? It seems like you've aged during the three weeks I left Tm not here for you if you will excuse me.” With that, he walked away from them. He felt contented when he saw the look on their faces.
Thinking of something, he turned back and called out to Edward “You should stop that childish act, ifs getting boring." Finally, out of their sight, he walked towards the entrance. He was let in without the invitation card as Liam had informed the people outside.
The Greenfields's Mansion is no different than the other rich people's mansion but when Jeff entered, he could feel some sense of tranquility.
The exterior was gentle rather than expensive, if gave off a cool feeling. Jeff immediately felt at case.
S— He tumed around, his eyes meeting with Liam's pair of brown eyes. A smile tugged Jeff's lips as he thought of something.
Liam looked more mature than a year ago. His black hair which was normally let down was styled properly. Maybe the University makes people change "Oh my God! You look taller!" Liam exclaims, raising his head to look at Jeff who was one or two heads taller than him.
"And you look taller too but not taller than me” Jeff replied, a small smile still tugging his lips.
Liam and Jeff exchanged a few words before they walked into the venue for the birthday, the grand hall "I'm sorry for whatever happened!” Liam apologized, unable to look at Jeff in the face.
He had indeed behaved stupidly for believing that spoilt brat.
If not because of what he witnessed some weeks ago at the bar, he would still hate Jeff now.
At first, he didn't believe an innocent looking boy like Edward would do that. But he clearly saw what transpired at the club and what happened before Jeff arrived.
Liam felt sorry after he found out that Jeff was kicked out of the family and he suddenly realized why Jeff was despised... Jeff doesn't belong to the Hemsworth family.
When Edward badmouthed Jeff then, Liam was really surprised. How could Edward hate his own brother so much to say such words? But Edward is cunning, he made Liam believe that Jeff is a bad guy "Whatever" Jeff replied nonchalantly. "If it was someone else, they would have done the same." Of course, Jeff understands how Edward can be when he's hellbent on getting what he wants.
But he still thinks that Liam is just someone who is easy fo fool.
"Take me to your Mother,” Jeff said The grand hall was full of people from the elite circle, cach wearing expensive clothes to show off their wealth. Not all of them are really here to celebrate Mrs. Greenfield's birthday.
