When the senior learned that Gibson's car had broken down, a loud growl echoed from the other end of the line, chiding him for his inefficiency. 1
Gibson said apologetically, "Senior Lance, I'm very sorry, this is indeed my fault. The car I used is quite old, but I'm not very far from Sudbury. I'm about a few kilometers away now, could you come and pick the children up, please?" 5
The other side cursed aggressively, "I wouldn't have given a f*cking damn if not for the high number of goods you supply this time!” 1
Then, he huffed a breath and said, "Send me your location, I'll get there soon."

At this moment, Nelson, the Beggar Clan leader, and his wife, Kelly, had just walked out of the Webb family mansion with their daughter. 2
Today was Alice's birthday. Alice, who was Donald's wife, was also Nelson’s sister. 6
Usually, Alice would organize an extravagant birthday party, but due to Kian's unique condition, she chose to hold a small luncheon at home, i
She did not invite many guests to the luncheon as well. Apart from the Webb family, she only invited her
brother, her sister-in-law, and her little niece.
Kian was still his usual self after such a long time, needing his 'special menu' every hour. So, during the banquet, Kian disappeared for about twenty minutes. Everyone knew where he was going but no one dared t o mention it at all. s
After the luncheon, Nelson and his family were ready t o go home.
