Return Of The Prodigy
Return of the Prodigy Chapter 85

"You ready to be slapped in the face?"

Adam's voice was ear-piercing, stunning everyone present.

At this moment, a light laughter suddenly came from the inner room.

"Heh!"

The laughter was full of contempt and disdain. Then, Daniel walked out, supporting Dave.

Matilda found her backbone and walked over, linking arms with Daniel, "Husband, why did you just come out?"

"Daniel is here."

"Hello, Mr. Smith."

The people of the Hartleys immediately greeted Daniel with smiles.

Daniel smiled, "Hello to all uncles and aunts. I had a long conversation with Grandpa. I apologize for keeping you waiting."

"No problem, you are a great contributor to the Hartleys, having signed a big order and opened the way to the provincial capital for the Hartleys."

Daniel modestly replied, "Thanks for your kind words. I dare not accept such praise."

The people of the Hartleys continued with praises.

"Look, both are Hartleys's sons-in-law, but it's like night and day."

"Hehe, comparing him to our Daniel? He's not even worthy of carrying Daniel's bags."

Listening to the praises, Matilda was extremely pleased, holding onto Daniel's arm, she walked up to Katie.

"Darling, guess who this is?"

Daniel reached out, smiling, "Katie, long time no see."

Katie frowned but didn't answer, her face filled with embarrassment.

Matilda, even more smug, said, "Darling, and him, guess who he is?"

Daniel turned to look at Adam, still reaching out, "Hello, I suppose you should be Katie's husband. I'm Daniel, nice to meet you."

Adam coldly said, "I have no interest in knowing you."

Daniel was slightly stunned. He hadn't expected Adam to be so... foolish!

In front of so many people from the Hartleys, even if he was pretending, shouldn't he pretend with more grace?

Hehe, truly brainless!

He had even investigated Daniel's background, considering him a rival.

Now it seemed that he wasn't even qualified!

"Look, this is quality. Lower-class people will always be lower-class. People are compared, and goods are compared."

"Hehe, talking about manners with a lunatic? He's just uncultured!"

"Haha, manners? I bet he's an orphan without parents. Who knows where his folks kicked the bucket. What kind of manners could he possibly have?"

"Without a comparison, there is no harm. Our family has been unlucky for eight generations, how could we encounter such a thing."

The people of the Hartleys took the opportunity to make sarcastic remarks, indirectly flattering Daniel.

"Hehe, uncles and aunts, there might be a misunderstanding. I believe he hasn't been in contact with our upper-class circles, so a little rudeness is understandable," Daniel explained for Adam.

In an instant, the distinction was clear!

The people of the Hartleys praised Daniel with more flattery.

"Hehe, Katie, is this your husband? Look at my husband."

"Do you know what a world of difference is?"

"My husband is like an eagle soaring in the sky, while your husband is just a toad in a well."

"It's a pity, originally, you had a chance to marry Daniel. It's all your fault for not being self-disciplined and ending up with a lunatic. All of this is your own choice, who can you blame?" Matilda boasted proudly.

It had to be said that Daniel was indeed well-groomed, standing tall at 1.8 meters, with a refined face. Wearing a well-tailored expensive suit, sporting glasses, a watch on his wrist, and leather shoes on his feet... tall and handsome, he was the dream prince of countless women.

Looking at Adam, wearing inexpensive clothes and old cloth shoes, there wasn't a single place on him that caught the eye. He couldn't be compared at all.

Katie looked bleak, biting her lip but had nothing to say.

Sometimes, she couldn't help but wonder, if she had married Daniel six years ago, would her life be completely different now?

Could she also ride in luxurious cars without enduring the humiliation from the Hartleys every day? And not worry about her child's tuition fees? But, reality was reality.

"Hehe, regretting it now? Unfortunately, there's no regret medicine in this world!"

"You have to spend your life with this lunatic. Who asked you to be so foolish and not keep your virtue? You won't have a life of enjoyment!"

"Oh, by the way, your lunatic husband also said that he wants to single-handedly fight the whole world for you. Didn't you kiss him out of gratitude?" "Hahaha, I wish you happiness!"

Matilda kept mocking, laughing heartily.

Meanwhile, Daniel calmly watched the scene, maintaining a smile that made people feel like they were in a warm spring breeze.

This made Katie even more uncomfortable!

It also made Adam appear even more useless!

"Hehe, aren't you very capable? Weren't you going to fight the whole world for her?"

"Now that you see your wife being bullied, why don't you dare to step forward?"

"Stop boasting? Scared? Become a coward?"

Matilda continued to mock.

Katie, trembling with anger, was afraid that Adam might suddenly resort to violence. "Adam, let's go."

Matilda stepped forward to block their way and shouted, "Go? Did I let you go?"

Adam sneered, full of killing intent. "The good show hasn't started yet. Why should we leave?"

Katie was stunned!

At this moment, there was a sudden, piercing roar outside the villa, and cars rushed to the front gate as if escaping for their lives.

The screeching of emergency brakes was incessant.

The next moment.

All car doors opened simultaneously, and figures rushed out of the cars. The sounds of thumping and kneeling echoed, and everyone knelt on the ground. Then, cries and pleas filled the entire villa.
