Chapter 194 The Celebratory Luncheon

Ysabel was pretty. She was fair and had a scholarly charisma.

"You're amazing, Donald," she commented.

The taxi driver watched them through the rear-view mirror and shook his head.

Girls these days...

Donald remained silent.

"Does Jennifer know how amazing you are?" Ysabel was excited.

Donald shook his head. "No, so you must keep it a secret. Got it?"

She replied, "I'm not stupid, so I won't tell a soul. Don't worry."

As she spoke, her phone rang unexpectedly. "Hey, Mom, I'm almost there. Yeah, somebody's sending me home."

"Who is it?" A stern voice could be heard from the side of the call.

"Donald Campbell, my cousin-in-law." Ysabel stole a glance at Donald.

"Be quick!" After that, the call ended.

"I won't be going with you. Your mom won't let you socialize with me," Donald said.

Ysabel hugged his arms coquettishly. "No, please. You and Jennifer are already divorced, and I'm also old enough to date. She can't control me."

He shook his head. "No, I'll get out of the car over there."

She uttered in a mysterious manner, "Wait! I bet you have no idea who my mom is going to meet at noon."

Donald was startled. "Did she replace a stepfather for you?"

"No, you silly!" Ysabel pretended to be angry. "My mom is going to meet with her two elder sisters. Oh, Aunt Linda is the second eldest sister of my mom, and she is also the mother of my cousin, Jennifer." She continued, "Mom said Aunt Linda has organized a celebratory luncheon today to celebrate Jennifer's success in securing a major project. It'll be held at Rivebale Hotel."

After giving it some thought, Donald agreed, "Fine. I'll go have a look."

Ysabel was finally pleased.

He checked his phone. Indeed, there was an update from Bradley about Jennifer's status. Jennifer was strapped for cash recently, and there was no news about the start-up capital. Nigel would be there, too.

Furthermore, many people would attend the luncheon. They were eyeing Jennifer's project.

As Donald read the message from Bradley, his phone received another message. The number seemed foreign yet familiar at the same time. After pondering for a while, he realized that it was from Kevin's girlfriend, Skylar. The message read: Hey, Mr. Moneybags. It's been a while. Are you free to meet up? Recently, I ran into some problems again. I want to take on a project, but at the moment, I'm short of three million as start-up capital. Can you lend the money to me, Mr. Moneybags? If yes, I'll do anything you want...

The text message was accompanied by a heavily-edited selfie. In the photo, Skylar was pouting and trying hard to act cute.

Donald wanted to puke at the sight of the selfie. He ignored her and deleted the message.

Kevin was strangely obsessed with Skylar, and he fancied women like her.

No matter how often Jennifer warned him about Skylar, he refused to listen to her.

He even argued with his sister because of this matter.

Kevin had told Jennifer that she did not have the right to interfere with his upcoming marriage. After all, she did not listen to him when he advised her to grovel to Nigel.

Thus, Jennifer stopped caring about Kevin's business.

She was well aware of Skylar's personality.

Earlier, Jennifer had seen Skylar sitting on the lap of a man from Yartran, and she allowed him to touch her body.

The celebratory luncheon was organized by Jennifer's mother, Linda.

Her whole purpose of doing so was to show off.

It was as if she wanted to say, "Look at how successful my daughter is! She secured the land reclamation project worth two billion, and she's about to make a comeback! As her mother, I'm so happy. After all, I raised and nurtured her."

Jennifer had another reason for attending the luncheon. The Wilson family was rather influential in Pollerton. Therefore, she wanted to gather all members of the family and see whether she could raise funds for her start-up capital. Later on, she would return the money to the Wilson family in the form of a bonus.
