Chapter 818
Dustin held the bead and stood in the center of the crowd under their stunned
gazes.
They were stunned by the bead's value and its sudden appearance here.
No one could comprehend how or why.
A bead that had sparked a bidding war among top-tier elites in Summerdale Auction House was beyond priceless. Its value was indisputable.
But had Stanley not bought it for 150 million? How had it traveled thousands of miles from the Kennedy family to a small city like Hattan?
There was also the fact that Dustin claimed to have bought it for 80 million as a gift for Terry.
Stanley had paid a massive price for the bead. Why would he sell it away?
Even if he did sell it, why would he sell it at an amount that was not even half of its original price? It defied reason.
Dustin was just a useless son-in-law of the Yeager family. How could he possibly have connections with someone of such high status?
Too many unanswered questions hung in the air and left the guests bewildered.
But one thing was certain: the rumors about Dustin were completely unfounded. He did not look like a fool at all. His composure alone put the Yeager family's own sons to shame.
Just being able to purchase an 80-million-dollar gift was enough to command respect.noveldrama
"Dustin is no ordinary man," someone murmured thoughtfully.
The guests were not fools. They could tell if someone was capable.
Based on what they had just witnessed, Dustin far outclassed the Yeager family's eldest son.
"How did the Yeager family cast someone like that out? Is there more to this story?" some guests whispered as they glanced between Dustin and the Yeager family members.
“He's here to humiliate them at the banquet, in front of the public. He's proving his worth and exposing the Yeager family's lack of judgment."
"Such a priceless gift... Will the Yeager family swallow their pride and accept it?”
Zack, Percy, and Warren all looked grim.
They were clearly shaken.
The man they had dismissed as useless had just pulled off an astonishing feat, one that overturned everything they believed.
Never mind the bead's value, its acquisition alone was terrifying in implication. How did Dustin manage it?
The possible details behind it sent shivers down their spines!
All they could do was watch Dustin stand calmly in place. No one said anything.
“Patricia and I offer this bead as this family's great-grandfather's 90th birthday gift," Dustin said.
"Warren, Percy, take the gift," Zack ordered sharply.
Warren and Percy hurried over to Dustin.
Their expressions were unreadable. One of them reached out to accept the bead.
Dustin handed it over, and the recipient's hands shook violently.
The bead was small, but its value was immense.
It was something fought over by the most powerful elites...
"This is very thoughtful of you two. Come by to visit whenever you're free." Zack said.
The guests exchanged strange glances.
Were they letting Dustin and Patricia back into the family?
The Yeager family was too greedy to reject something so valuable.
Yet, Zack was smart. He did not want to appear humbled, so he left things ambiguous. He was neither lowering himself nor outright cold toward them.
ทั้ง
If Dustin wanted to return, he would be welcome, but the Yeager family would not have to lower themselves to have him back. They would not be humiliated.
Meanwhile, Damien and Alex looked displeased. They did not want to see Dustin and Patricia return.
They were eyeing the Yeager family inheritance for themselves.
"The Yeager family is quite practical, huh? Throwing him out when he seemed
useless, then taking him back when he shows potential..."
"It's more than just potential. Dustin
is no ordinary man. He must have e I connections. That have
Yeager family can't ignore that."
"What do you think Dustin will say? Will he take the offer?"
All eyes were on Dustin, who smiled faintly.
"I've been quite busy lately, so I won't be able to visit."
What do you think?
