Margaret laughed coldly. Then, she said sarcastically to Allegra, “Oh, I’ve told all our relatives that my granddaughter is having a birthday party next Monday. I even notified your father’s relatives. I bet they’ve never seen the Backlane Boys in the flesh! Look at me; I’m getting all excited. It’s all thanks to you.” Allegra’s face darkened. At that moment, Isaac stood. When Margaret saw Isaac get up with a gloomy expression, she immediately turned around to leave. There was a cold smile on her face when she said, “Well, we won’t take more of your time. Oh dear, if the Backlane Boys can’t make it, everyone will spit at you.” Andrew turned around to glare icily at Isaac. Smirking, he said, “Garten, don’t get all giddy. You won’t be happy for much longer.” The living room fell silent. Allegra closed her eyes and took a deep breath, muttering coldly, “Isaac, I don’t care what people think of me, but you made a promise to Bella. She knows about everything now. If you upset her,
Looking at the letter in his hand, particularly at the large red seal at the bottom, Nick furrowed his brows tightly. He took another hit of the cigar and said lowly, “But we’ve already promised Mr. Garten. Why did they send out a notice at this time? Not to mention, they've said attendance is mandatory.” “Nick, you cannot skip the meeting with the communications department. After all, they’re an official organization. But Mr. Garten… he's someone we shouldn't cross.” The elderly butler sighed. “Since I received this notice, then the other three must have as well. Daley, please get them to gather at my house. I want to discuss this with them,” Nick said, frowning. Daley nodded, turned around, and immediately set to work. The next day, the weather was absolutely gorgeous, as if it was predestined to be a great day. Allegra woke up at the crack of dawn. She didn’t get much sleep last night. Until now, she still hadn’t heard any news of the Backlane Boys coming to Cloud City.
Oliver said coldly, “Hmph, I refuse to believe that he managed to invite the Backlane Boys. At most, he probably got in touch with a few small celebrities. Herbert, you’ve been in the entertainment industry for years, and even you weren't able to invite those godly figures. Isaac is a martial artist, and I doubt he has influence over celebrities. Let’s send someone to go take a look later. If no one is there, then we must take this opportunity to thoroughly humiliate him today. Also, while he and his family are busy celebrating that bastard child’s birthday, I’ve asked someone to set fire to the Springview Clinic. That Stewart asshole will never be able to steal our business ever again!” Ever since Harry took over the Springview Clinic, the Crowe family’s Beacon Clinic had seen a decline in business. However, they didn’t dare to incur Isaac’s wrath, so they could only swallow their anger. However, today was a good chance for them to strike back! At 4 p.m. that afternoon, the entire
When Isaac saw Harry’s expression, his heart stopped. Could something have happened? “Sir, I just gave Nick as well as Brian’s secretary a call. They're currently at a meeting in the capital city. They got the notice late last night, and it seems like they still can’t get out of it yet.” “Is that so?” Isaac’s eyes narrowed, his body exuding waves of fury. How dare they stand him up? The Backlane Boys sure was a piece of work! “Sir, don’t get mad yet. They said they’ve made some arrangements and will come right away!” Harry was also confused, but from what Nick said, it seemed as though he had a surprise planned. Edward, who was seated with the rest of the Gould and Booth families, burst out laughing at that point. He said in a loud voice, “I happen to have a friend from the capital city, and he told me that the Backlane Boys are still stuck in a meeting there. Pecling is over 1000 miles away from here. Even if they somehow grew wings, they still wouldn’t be able to fly over.”
In the stadium, four huge spotlights came to life, lighting up the entire venue. The beams of light fell onto the red carpet. Serena was the first to shriek, “Oh my god, it’s really Jake, Wyona, and fuck, that’s Justin Donda, Kaitlyn Ross, and Johnny Bennon…” Allegra shivered and couldn’t help but take a step backward. Isabella’s tears stopped, and a wide smile bloomed on her face. She reached out in front of her. “Mom, that lady is so pretty! I’ve seen her on TV before. And that man…” Everyone stood, turning their heads to look at the parking lot and the red carpet in utter shock. The emcee was tongue-tied. After a moment, she finally grabbed the microphone and stuttered, “L—let’s welcome our first guest, Jake Minner. Let’s hear some applause.” Old Brooks jogged over to Isaac and said softly, “Mr. Garten, a lot of people outside are trying to force their way in. There are still several empty seats toward the back. Why don’t we let some of them in? If they come in through the
As soon as the news broke, everyone headed straight for the French windows to have a look for themselves.The French windows were positioned in such a way that they gave a clear view of the stadium. The roads leading into the stadium were crammed full of people, and they could hear a lot of screams even from afar. Standing right on top of the luxurious, 1000-foot-long stage were exactly 100 artists and idols from all over the country.“Oh my god! That’s Jake Minner! And Wyona Rider! Johnny Bennon! Dean Mertenn!” The girl screaming out the superstars’ names couldn’t believe her eyes.Without thinking any further, she bolted straight for the door. As she did so, more and more guests put down their glasses of wine and ran out after her.They would rather watch the concert across the street than stay here with the Crowes.Lenny, Kris, and Baby Angel were still singing onstage with Prince when they heard the commotion and stopped in their tracks. They looked at each other before immediately
Around 10 p.m. that night, the artists and idols were almost done with their performances. All of a sudden, Harry walked over to Isaac with a grim look on his face.“Isaac, there was a fire at Springview Clinic. I have to go over and take a look.”“There was a fire? Is it serious?” Isaac asked, turning around to look at him.“One of my guys came out unscathed, but the other was badly burned. I’m taking 20 people from the Assassin Squad to see what’s up,” Harry replied lightly. However, there was a deadly look in his eyes.Isaac nodded and said, “Alright, be careful.”He watched as Harry left. Then, Isaac turned around and looked in the direction of the Bayou Hotel, seemingly deep in thought.By the time 11 p.m. rolled around, the performances were coming to an end.Just then, two black cars drove into the stadium. A crowd of security guards immediately flocked over to the cars.A few eagle-eyed fans caught sight of the cars at once and immediately looked over.The doors opened slowly.
Allegra never dreamed that she would one day be standing in the middle of the stage with Isabella, surrounded by hundreds of megastars from all over the country.A seven-layer cake was wheeled onto the stage. With help from the Backlane Boys, Isabella closed her eyes and blew out the candles. Then, Allegra helped with cutting and distributing the cake.In the end, all 100 artists and idols sang the birthday song for Isabella. The fans in the rest of the stadium also lit up their phone flashlights and sang along with them. It felt just like a concert for them.Isaac lit up a cigarette and smiled as he looked at the happy expressions on Allegra’s and Isabella’s faces.He didn’t care if he went bankrupt, as long as he could make them happy. He'd give them the moon if he could.Just as the birthday song was coming to an end, the Crowes received some shocking news.The core members of the Crowe family were also gathered in the same presidential suite, waiting for good news from their people
