"The Wynns have a family banquet today!" Reene slurred as she checked her watch.
"It's starting in less than an hour. I can't be late!"
"I'll go with you," Kingsley insisted as he stood up.
He wanted to see what kind of bustards Clarence and his family were when they dared sanction his sister!
"Just wait for me here, Kingsley. The Wynn Family is complicated. It's best that you don't get yourself dragged into it."
With that, Reene pulled a bank card out of her handbag, handing it to him. "Go down and shop while you wait. Buy whatever catches your eyes. There's still about a hundred thousand in there. Spend it however you like!"
However, Kingsley felt upset when he took the bank card from her. As the president of a large department store, how could she only have a hundred thousand in her bank?! Clearly, the Wynns had seized the money she earned!
"I'll run away again if you don't take me with you today."
"There's really nothing I can do about you, is there?" Reene sighed with mixed emotions.
Victorious, Kingsley grinned.
Sure enough, after all these years, Reene still couldn't resist his 'pestering'.
After sitting in Reene's red BMW, Kingsley twitched his nose while smelling the enticing perfume in the car. "Sweet ride you have here, Reene." He grinned.
"You like it? Why don't I get you one when I get my Christmas bonus?"
"No, no..." Kingsley hurriedly waved his hands. "I've got a car of my own."
They happened to pass by where he parked the janky Santana, and he pointed toward it. "There, see? That's my car."
Reene was rendered speechless for a moment, and her eyes turned red-rimmed.
"Kingsley, I can't imagine how much you've suffered these last few years," she said with a broken heart. "Don't worry, now that you've come home, I won't sit by and watch you drive a janky car like that."
It was Kingsley's turn to be speechless this time. He had pointed it out so that Keene wouldn't get him a car, but who'd have thought it did the complete opposite?!
"Keene, that car is just so that I can get from point A to point B. I'll find a new car in a couple of days."
"Alright, leave it to me then."

That's not what I mean!
The Wynn Family banquet was held in the Paragon Hotel. Meanwhile, the eldest young master of the Wynn Family, Clarence, crossed his legs and quirked his lips with dissatisfaction. "Elijah, why hasn't your adoptive daughter shown up yet? Look at the time now!"
At that, Elijah and his wife, Ysabel Joslin, exchanged a glance with grim faces. "It's only natural Reene is swamped with work when she has a large department store to manage."
"Pfft!" Alex Wynn sniggered. "You sure know how to blow your own trumpet, Uncle Elijah. Busy? More like incompetent!"
