Daniel smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. After all, I'm still young, right?"
Alice was touched and said, "You are such a good boy."
Although Daniel was thoughtless about dealing with the matter between Amelia and Brittany, it was her daughter that disappointed her.
If it wasn't for the fact that Brittany seduced him to bed while Daniel was drunk and threatened him to commit suicide afterwards, there would be a lot of things that could be avoided.
In the meanwhile, at Century Hotel.
When the family came out of the Land of Fragrance, it was during a thunderstorm. When the car arrived at the hotel, the rain had stopped.
Amelia put the umbrella back in the car, which she brought back from Hawoi City.
Surprisingly, they were the first to arrive. From the corner of her eyes, Amelia saw Granny Hopper's unhappy face. She guessed it was because of Eve and others being late.
Even naive Florence felt that something was wrong, "What are they doing? It's already late!"
Amelia secretly tugged Patrick's clothes and whispered, "Aren't you going to call and urge them?"
Patrick looked at her helplessly and said, "I have already done that. Mom said that they would be here soon. She said let us enter the private room first."
Putting her hands in front of her, Granny Hopper said with a poker face, "What a lesson."
Patrick hastened to comfort Granny Hopper, "Grandma, it's not what you thought!"
Granny Hopper glanced at Patrick, as if her anger just now was just an illusion. "It is a good day. I don't want to haggle with her."
Listening to their conversation, Amelia was full of emotions. Granny Hopper despised Eve just as the way she looked down on Amelia. What a fate!
They went to the luxury box with the waiter's guidance, while the dispute ahead of them made them stop.
A young man, holding a beauty around her slender waist, shouted to the manager, "I said I will pay more to use this box. Why are you so stubborn?"
The manager said with sweat dripping down his face, "Sir, this room was reserved by a big shot in Northville. No matter how much money you pay, we wouldn't dare to give it to you easily."
The young man guffawed, rubbed the beautiful woman's butt, and asked, "Baby, tell me, who can be called a big shot in front of me?"
"You are so annoying!" The woman patted the man's arm and said flirtatiously, "No one can compare with you in my heart."
Hearing this, the young man was pleased. He leaned forward to kiss her and yelled at the manager, "If the big shot comes, bring him to me, and let me talk to him personally. How about this?"
"No need. I'm here." Patrick, who was standing not far behind him, opened his mouth.
The manager turned around. When he saw it was Patrick, he immediately greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Hopper! You're finally here!"
"Mr. Hopper..." The young man's Adam's apple bobbed. There was a flicker of fear in his eyes.
Patrick recognized the young man. He smiled and said, "I'm wondering who this man is. It turns out to be Secretary Grant. How's the chief recently?"
