Several of the nearby guests craned their necks, catching a glimpse of the name, and within seconds, the ridiculing began.“Seriously?Is this guy serious?” Greg scoffed haughtily.“Is that supposed to be a joke? Edward Crestwood? In your wildest dreams!” Another person in the crowd sniggered.The crowd erupted instantly with mocking laughter. They clearly believed that Ethan, being the boastful fraud that he was, had resorted to cheap tricks like creating fake names on his phone to impress people. The idea that the head of the Crestwood family, one of the most powerful men in the city, would call someone as unremarkable as Ethan was too far-fetched for them to entertain.Aria and her friend, Natalie, crossed their arms and stared at Ethan with an amused expression on their faces. They were eagerly waiting for Eth

I have already assessed the situation with Jason on my way here. I know exactly what to do.

Instead, he focused his attention on Professor Davies.“You’re making a mistake, I’m telling you.” Ethan said coldly.Professor Davies let out a frustrated sigh at Ethan’s stubborn attitude.

The fact that Ethan was still very young and far less experienced than him also made him extremely annoyed.Jason, sensing Professor Davies' frustration, turned to him and pleaded in a soft tone.“Professor Davies, please ignore him! He must be a fraud that had somehow managed to con my father!” Jason said, casting a venomous glance at Ethan.Ethan sneered at Jason’s words.“Me? A fraud?”“Yes. You’re nothing but a con artist!” Jason shot back.“You really think I’m a fraud?” Ethan asked coldly, his pos

Ethan was about to step out of the Crestwood manor when the butler hurried after him, calling out in a desperate voice.“Master Ethan! Please wait!” The butler's voice was urgent as he drew closer.

I don’t want any distractions.” Ethan retorted coldly.Jason crossed his arms, his expression hard.“I don’t trust him! There’s no way I’m leaving this room!” he said stubbornly, narrowing his eyes at Ethan.
