Chapter 11
The Old Master, Albert Downey, was truly infuriated. He rushed out the door, knocking the door off its hinges in the process.Quentin slumped down on the chair limply.None of the rest of the Downey family dared to probe any further. So, they left one after the other.Only when everyone left did Quentin take a deep breath. Then, he dialed Naomi Downey’s number.…Naomi Downey was seated on the sofa as she glanced at the clock.Half an hour had passed, but nothing had happened.She picked up a cushion and tossed it at Arthur Grey. However, he was easily able to dodge it.Just then, her phone rang.Naomi was about to pick it up when her spouse shouted, “Don’t pick it up.”Then, he strode toward Yvette Larson and saw that the call was from Quince Larson.Arthur picked up the call.“Naomi, Grandpa is asking you to come to the office and accompany me to Starlight Inc.”“Naomi’s sick.”“Oh, it’s Arthur. I have something to tell Naomi. Put her on the phone.”“No, she’s sick an

After finishing his cigarette, Arthur stubbed his cigarette on Quentin’s hand.Only when the fire was out did he stand back up.Having received a beating, Quentin no longer dared to kick up a fuss. Nonetheless, he was terribly displeased.?‘Today, I’ve been beaten up by the good-for-nothing, matrilocal son-in-law of the Downey family! This is the greatest blemish in my entire life!’“Arthur Grey, just wait and see! I won’t let you off so easily!” Quentin backed away toward his car as he said that.“Remember to tell Grandpa that Naomi is sick and needs his car to send her to the hospital. He’d better come personally.” Arthur raised his arm, waving goodbye to him.By then, Quentin had already reached his car.Thinking that Arthur was about to beat him up again, he quickly rushed into the car, started the engine, and drove off.Hearing a din coming from outside, Naomi had come to check on the situation. But all she saw was Arthur waving goodbye to her cousin, who was escaping in his

“Hello, Madam Gill. What’s the matter?”The din drew the attention of many.The hotel staff rushed over.The general manager realized that the rich lady in her forties was the wife of the Ramsdale family’s Young Master, Samantha Gill.Although the Downey family wasn’t entirely unknown, they were still a second-tier family in San Francisco. The Downey family was far from being the protagonist of tonight’s party.The Ramsdale family was different; they were a renowned family in San Francisco.Now that the Ramsdale family had gotten into an argument with some unknown people, it was only natural that Carlos Peña sided with the Ramsdale family.“Mr. Peña, what’s going on? Ever since they entered, they’ve been eating and drinking. I wonder if they sneaked in without an invitation.”Carlos nodded, turning his gaze to Naomi and her party. “Please show me your invitation.”Naomi had only received a single invitation. Logically, she should’ve brought only one person in. But this time,

Neither Naomi Downey nor Melissa Flair knew the man who was bowing before them. They were still in confusion over where these two invitations had suddenly appeared from.However, Liam Ramsdale knew this man, and so did Carlos Peña.His name was Peter Grover; he was one of the most important members of Chicago’s Grover family and the right-hand man of All Stars Hotel’s boss, Andrew Grover.At certain events, Peter represented the Grover family as well as Andrew Grover. It was incredulous that he was bowing before Arthur now.Carlos Peña was dumbfounded and couldn’t utter a word. Even Liam Ramsdale was trembling slightly.Arthur was just about to step forward to receive the invitations when Samantha Gill cut in and snatched both invitations away. “These invitations must be fake. He’s just the useless matrilocal son-in-law of the Downey family. How could he have an invitation?”Before Samantha could open the invitations to take a look, Liam slapped her right in the face. “How much

“Naomi, let’s go. Follow me backstage; I want to meet this violinist. I love him so much! I think I’m in love!” Melissa was completely smitten. Naomi was dragged along to the backstage. But in the end, they were utterly disappointed. Arthur had already left a long time ago, and the other musicians told Melissa that they didn’t even know the violinist. After they left the backstage, Arthur walked over with two cups of milk tea. He handed one of the cups to Naomi. Then, he started drinking from the second. Melissa watched on in disbelief. “Isn’t that cup of milk tea for me?” “You’re not my wife. Why should I give it to you?” Melissa was stunned for a moment and didn’t know how to rebut him. “Why don’t you drink from this cup?” Naomi felt a little awkward and handed her cup to her friend. “Forget it; it’s yours. Your husband bought it for you. When I find that violinist, I’ll make sure to get him to buy me a carton—No, a truck-load.” Melissa was full of confidence and determinat

Chapter 17
Arthur had come to pick his wife up with an electric scooter, but it had run out of battery. In the end, he had even wanted to push her home.In the short span of a night, the entire Downey family learned of this situation.The next day, after Naomi Downey returned to the office, Kate Downey walked into the CEO’s office with a document. “Naomi, you’re a CEO. Why are you taking an electric scooter home? Hasn’t the company provided you with a car?”Naomi was fuming.?‘Of course, I could’ve taken the company car, but I had been trying to give Arthur an opportunity. Who would’ve known that he would screw up such a small matter? That is why I have become the biggest joke in the whole company.’Naomi was infuriated and swore never to believe in her husband ever again.Naturally, Arthur knew that he had caused a mess the previous day.?‘It had been an amazing opportunity. Naomi definitely would’ve hugged me from behind as I rode the scooter. In the end, I landed myself in this state.’‘Fo

Chapter 18
There was a hidden meaning in between Kate Downey words. She was clearly trying to insinuate that Naomi had only managed to sign the contract because of her beauty.Quentin burst out into laughter and looked at Arthur, saying, “Arthur, I’ll give you a present. I wonder if you like being cheated on, but I guess you quite like it. Otherwise, why aren’t you angry at all?”Arthur ignored the pair. The more he tried to retort them, the more they would try to provoke him.It was meaningless.But the more Arthur tried to ignore them, the more they tried to annoy him by staying by his side.Arthur walked out of the lift and headed toward his wife’s office.And both of them followed him right into the office.“What are you doing here in the office?” Obviously, Naomi was still upset about what happened yesterday.“I… I got you a present.”Hearing that Arthur was gifting her something, Naomi felt rather moved in her heart.No matter what, she was his wife, after all. Which woman didn’t

The identity of the man who was trembling and didn’t dare to sit down would definitely stun anyone if they were to see him. That was because this man was the head of Chicago’s Grover family, Andrew Grover.“Master Atlas, I…” Andrew attempted to explain himself, but the coldness on Arthur’s face scared him off.“Andrew, you should know exactly why I called you here today.”“Yes, yes. Of course, I do.” Andrew was clear that Arthur and his wife—Naomi Downey—had attended a party at his All Stars Hotel a few days ago.In the end, the Ramsdale family had even accused them of not having any invitations and having snuck into the party to get free food and drinks. Not only had the manager of the All Stars Hotel not stopped them from doing so, but he had even stood on the Fleming family’s side.Thankfully, Peter Grover recognized Arthur in time and had saved him from any embarrassment. Otherwise, he dared not even think of the consequences.He didn’t even dare to think about whether the G

Naomi slammed her fist down on the car. “If you two continue with your nonsense, I’ll exercise the rights Grandpa gave me and kick both of you out of the company.”Only then did Quentin and Kate back down a little and stop mocking Arthur.“Arthur, carry these things into the orphanage . These are the things our company is going to give the children later. Say, CEO Downey, you aren’t going to fire me for asking your husband to work for the company, are you?”Quentin was clearly getting his revenge privately. They had brought more than ten security officers, but he insisted on Arthur doing the job.Before Naomi could say anything, her husband waved her off. “It’s alright; I’ll move them. If Grandpa knows that our family personally got involved in charitable work, he’ll definitely be happy.”‘Since Quentin wants to take revenge on me, I will just take it in stride.’Arthur’s words caught Quentin slightly off-guard. This made it seem as though his family was less than Naomi’s if he
