"License plate 8888, who’s the big shot this time?"
"Isn’t that Lord Keaton’s car?"
"Is Lord Keaton attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony today too?"
"If I had known Lord Keaton was coming today, I would have brought my daughter."
Victor Hawthorne was busy following his parents to welcome Roman Kidd when he suddenly heard the gossip from the bro crowd and those who had just seen Roman’s arrival, all eager to make an impression in front of him.
Victor quickly followed everyone’s gaze and saw the limited edition Maserati, which flaunted the owner’s extraordinary status, slowly come to a stop.
That car... wasn’t it the same one Lord Keaton personally drove when Victor went to The Keaton Estate for dinner before? Chapters first released on novel fire.net
Does this mean that Lord Keaton is also attending their family’s mountain estate opening ceremony today?
But Lord Keaton’s name wasn’t on the guest list his parents had mentioned earlier.
Victor was utterly puzzled and quickly looked toward his parents for answers.
But the problem was, in their eyes, he also saw confusion.
Clearly, they too hadn’t expected that Lord Keaton, who hadn’t even attended The Keaton Family’s annual banquet, would grace their small estate’s ribbon-cutting ceremony with his presence.
How could The Hawthorne Family possibly warrant such an honor?
A mere ribbon-cutting for their small estate, and it astounded both Lord Keaton and the Vice President to attend!
But more excited than The Hawthorne Family was, naturally, Bianca White, standing behind Roman Kidd.
Even she didn’t expect to see Lord Keaton at The Hawthorne Family’s vacation estate opening ceremony.
After starting intensive training for the international elite competition, she’d been living at the headquarters daily, and it had been a good half a month since she’d seen Lord Keaton.
Moreover, she hadn’t received any news about Lord Keaton attending this ceremony.
If she had known, she would have definitely picked a prettier dress and done her makeup more meticulously.
While Bianca was excited, she heard Victor muttering, "Why would Lord Keaton show up?"
Bianca discreetly rolled her eyes.
Why would Lord Keaton come?
Of course, he came for her, Bianca White!
It’s known that Lord Keaton detests crowded and noisy places.
Even at The Keaton Family’s big and small parties, he rarely appears.
If he made an exception to attend such a small ribbon-cutting ceremony, it’s certainly because there’s someone special in attendance.
Gazing at the men and women who came for the ceremony, Bianca was more convinced that Lord Keaton was there for her.
Since she’d been busy with intense training these days and he hadn’t been able to see her, upon learning she would be at the ceremony today, he had to make time amid his busy schedule just to see her.
The more Bianca thought about it, the more excited she became.
Even her cousin, Brandon White, muttered, "Did Lord Keaton know you were here, and that’s why he came?"
In the eyes of other members of The White Family, Bianca grew up with The Keaton Family, so Lord Keaton was fond of her.
The only one who could make Lord Keaton attend such an event must be Bianca.
"Perhaps, I’ve hardly been back lately, maybe he has something he wants to tell me, so he came over,"
As excited as Bianca was inside, her response was as calm and nonchalant as ever.
Exactly, she wanted to demonstrate just how different she was in front of Lord Keaton.
Look, among all those meticulously dressed young ladies hearing her words, which one didn’t cast envious glances at her?
And as Bianca basked in their gazes, she was also secretly triumphing over potential competitors.
