Chapter 177: Have Some Shame
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Burton family’s faces turned ashen as they watched the off-road vehicle leave arrogantly. It was all gone. Their Burton family was completely destroyed!
The Burton family was so regretful that they wanted to vomit blood. If they had known that Amelia was Alex’s daughter, they would have personally invited her back without waiting for her to come to the Burton family to acknowledge her family! And Alex, no matter what, they were still relatives. How could he be so ruthless! Not only did he take away the plaque, but he also said ruthless words. Who would give them face in the future? He was forcing them to death!
As expected, after Alex left, the people around him also left one by one. Not only did they leave, but they also took the gifts that they brought previously.
Old Madam Burton was very anxious. “You guys! How can you take back a gift you’ve given!”
Old Master Burton tried to persuade them to stay. “Don’t go, don’t go.”
The Burton family was overwrought. Just now, they looked down on these people Now, they actually went to beg them to stay. Unfortunately, the guests didn’t give them any face and left in a moment.
At this moment, the Spencer family’s car arrived at the Burton family’s door. James Spencer, who had just finished wrapping up his work reports, had just rushed over. He got out of the car and looked at the empty iron door frame of the Burton family.
“Let’s go.” James stepped forward and draped a coat over Sylvia’s shoulders. The coat was still warm from his body. Sylvia pursed her lips and turned her face away.
Oliver pulled a long face and looked in the direction of the SUV. When the Burton family saw James, it was as if they had seen a straw to clutch at. They hurriedly went forward and said, “Mr. Spencer, Madam Spencer, please wait. Mr. Spencer, you and Alex are comrades. Can you tell Alex that this is all a misunderstanding…”
James’s expression turned cold. “Misunderstanding? Do you know the consequences of trying to climb up the military’s relationship?”
The Burton family:
James had his arm around Sylvia, who wanted to get into the car first, and finally said to the Burton family, “Have some shame.” With that, he got into the car.
The Spencer family’s car had also driven away. Old Madam Burton looked at the mess on the ground and thought of the gifts she had just received. All of them were priceless, but they were gone again after a spin in her hand. Her heart ached so much that it bled. Old Master Burton looked at the antiques that were smashed until there was not a single one left and fainted from heartache. A birthday banquet was supposed to be the beginning of the Burton family’s meteoric rise. Unexpectedly, not only did they not get a single cent, they even spent hundreds of millions. Their trump card antiques were all smashed, and the plaque of glory was gone. They didn’t know where to cry.
After Amelia was carried into the car, she did not think of her forgotten uncle for a moment because she was lying in the front passenger seat. From time to time, she would look back at the backseat. Why was there a ghost in her father’s car?
Alex drove and pressed his Bluetooth earpiece. “Ryan, send my brother-in-law back.” After a pause, he added, “Tell my brother-in-law that I’ll visit the
Walton residence tomorrow.”
Ryan, who received the call: “… Why don’t you tell President Walton yourself?” He glanced at George, who was standing at the side. George was holding his phone and didn’t move for a long time. He seemed to be thinking about who to call.
Alex snorted. “If reasoning was useful, I wouldn’t have snatched her away.” His daughter was indeed the daughter of the Walton family, but she was also his daughter. He wanted to bring his daughter back to acknowledge her roots. He wanted to bring her to his grandfather and parents’ memorial tablets and tell them not to worry. He had a family now. He had a very obedient daughter and would not be alone in the future. He also had something to worry about in this world. However, if he didn’t take Mia away today, according to the rules of the Walton family, he would at least have to be tested first. Then, there would be a buffer period. It would take many days, so he could only take her away first.
Alex’s expression softened slightly. He looked at Amelia and instructed,
“Daughter, sit properly. Don’t keep looking back.”
Ryan exploded when he heard this. “Master! You aren’t going to let Miss Mia sit in the passenger seat, aren’t you?
Alex said, “Otherwise?” Where else would she sit if not in the front passenger seat? He hadn’t prepared a child’s seat in the car yet. If he couldn’t see her in the back seat, he wouldn’t feel at ease. Besides, someone had died in the back seat of his car. Of course, he couldn’t let his delicate daughter sit in the back seat.
Ryan’s mouth twitched. Alright, he was going to pay the fine.
After hanging up the phone, Ryan took a deep breath and said to George, “President Walton, I’m sorry. Although our family head doesn’t play by the rules, he knows what he’s doing…” Otherwise, the country wouldn’t have used him so heavily..
