The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power -
Chapter 410
Eric sneered sinisterly when he heard everyone's dissatisfaction. He was planning to let Kingsley drag Will down the mud!
The host introduced the guests in fear and wiped his cold sweat off his forehead before respectfully announcing, "Mrs. Hewitt, it's your birthday today. Will you please say a few words?"
Loretta waved her hands and dismissed his offer politely. Her eyes were kind, and she had a big smile. She said, "Oh, I'm already delighted that all of you are here to celebrate my birthday with me. So, I won't drag this on. Enjoy your time here!"
The crowd cheered happily upon hearing her short but sweet speech.
Immediately after, the lights slowly dimmed, and a man in his forties pushed a cart with a three-story cake forward.
That man was Walter's eldest son, Weston.
Behind him were his wife and two teenagers.
The family of four pushed the cake over to the stage and gave a toast to Loretta.
Kingsley was stunned for a moment when he caught sight of Weston's face.
Warren looked so much like his older brother...
At this moment, Kingston's eyes welled up with tears.
If Warren were still alive, maybe he would've pushed the cake up with his wife and children, along with his brother and sister-in-law.
The family would be together, all three generations under the same roof. They would be living a happy life...
At this moment, the audience suddenly sang the birthday song out loud.
The atmosphere on the stage was cozy and homely.
Kingsley's throat closed up, choking on his emotions. He couldn't even sing a single word...
The children and grandchildren took turns wishing Loretta a happy birthday. Just like that, the birthday party was almost over.
Once everyone had given their presents, Loretta was finally able to sit down again.
The guests spent the rest of the party chatting with each other, expanding their networks.
This was the segment of the party everyone was looking forward to.
Everyone wanted to take this opportunity to leave a good impression on Walter.
However, birthday gifts were more than just a simple gesture for people like Heston and Arnold. It was to showcase their power and strength.
The leaders of the provincial and city governments were the first to present Loretta with their gifts.
Some gave high-grade tea leaves, some gave antique decorations, and some gave custom art.
These leaders gave these gifts not to curry favor with Walter but to suck up to her for the title of 'the Hero's Family.'
Some even gave her ordinary gifts to show their humbleness.
When it was time for companies to present gifts, the atmosphere became very lively!
It became especially so when Arnold presented his gift, which was a jade pot worth 20,000 from the Qing Dynasty. Everyone was in awe!
Their eyes were full of astonishment when they saw the dazzling gift.
"F*ck! Sunshine Company is really something else! Did they really send out a birthday gift worth 20,000?!"
"Oh my God, 20,000?! Isn't that way too expensive for a gift?!"
Although the people here were all from affluent backgrounds, they were still shocked by the highly costly gift!
The commoners from Qustia could only afford gifts that were worth three to five hundred at most.
Even if they were wealthy, a gift worth tens of thousands of dollars was a great deal in their eyes!
Yet, Arnold casually gave away a 20,000 gift like it was nothing. It was no wonder everyone was shocked!
Walter and his wife were even more shocked by this turn of events. They carefully placed the gift down and said, "This... This gift is worth way too extravagant! President Yorkshire, please. We appreciate your gift, but this is way too valuable!"
Arnold responded with a smile, "President Hewitt, Mrs. Hewitt, I only have the utmost respect for you and your family! This gift isn't enough to express the extent of my regard for you! Please accept this as a token of my sincerity!"
