“Your tongue sure is sharp, eh? Probably the only skill you’ve mastered in this lifetime, right?” Norton James sneered and opened his mouth to speak.

“No need for you to worry about that, at least I’m not stingy like you.” Finn Lewis calmly retorted.

Damn it! Norton James nearly lost his mind. Damn, why do you have to bring up stinginess? Am I really that stingy? Have the guts to show me some generosity! “Alright, you’re tough. I’d like to see if your abilities are as strong as your talk.” Norton James dropped a statement and promptly turned to go in another direction. Thunder Davis and the others naturally followed.

Most of the Davis Clan followed. Seeing them leave, Finn Lewis didn’t say anything, just shrugged. If it weren’t for the fact it was Grandfather Davis’s birthday today, he wouldn’t have let Norton James leave so easily. This wasn’t like Finn Lewis at all. You think you can just walk away after showing off your cockiness? You’re being too arrogant. Showing off calls for preparation to face retaliation.

At least look at the guy standing nearby. His family influence isn’t worse than yours, right? But he still maintains basic manners. It seems he also admires Kay Lee. But he didn’t make any excessive moves.

“What’s this Finn Lewis’s background?” Having left Kay Lee and the others, a slightly infuriated Norton James asked Thunder Davis.

“Nothing special, just one of Kay Lee’s suitors, I guess. I’m not entirely sure, but she did bring him back this time.” Thunder Davis responded immediately.

Shit! She’s already being coveted, he blurted out.

The young members of the Davis Clan trailing Norton James felt a bit awkward. After all, even though Kay Lee carries the last name Lee, there was no essenitial difference between them and her. Norton James’s attitude was undoubtedly a slap in their faces, but none of them dared to say anything. They knew Norton James’s social standing, many of them were acquainted with Norton James, including Thunder Davis.

“Apparently not yet,” Thunder Davis whispered.

“Really? She’s already brought him home, I don’t believe there are any men left who can restrain themselves.” Norton James winked, completely ignored the expressions on Davis Clan’s faces. Apparently, he didn’t care about them at all.

Everyone else had left the area leaving only Kay Lee, Finn Lewis, and Elegant Sky. The relationship of Finn Lewis and Kay Lee wasn’t a secret. Elegant Sky felt awkward to continue being a third wheel. He smiled slightly, and promptly said: “You two carry on, I’ll head somewhere else.” Having said that, he nodded at Finn and Kay Lee, and then left alone.

“Why is there such a difference between people?” Looking at Elegant Sky’s receding figure, Finn Lewis shook his head and said, these two families should be of similar social status, or even Elegant Sky’s family might carry more weight. But Elegant Sky has always been very lowkey. Prior to Norton James’s arrival, many people from Davis Clan greeted Elegant Sky, and he always responded modestly, never saying more than necessary.

On the contrary, Norton James, right from the start, behaved as if he was the most important person there, overshadowing the host himself.

“Let it go, ignore him, as long as he doesn’t cause a scene, we’ll eat dinner and leave tomorrow.” Kay Lee slightly shook her head, understanding that the reason Finn Lewis did what he did earlier was to prevent the situation from escalating and to save face for her family. Otherwise, with Finn Lewis’s status, if he wanted to turn this into a big fiasco, the scale of it could be much larger than the one caused by Norton James.

“Mmn,” Finn Lewis nodded in agreement. freewёbnoνel.com

In addition to Norton James and Elegant Sky, several other guests arrived. But these guests were not as high-ranking as Elegant Sky and Norton James. Although Grandfather Davis greeted them all, some of them were just ordinary people like Grandfather Davis, most likely old friends of his. These elders brought along their own young relatives. After all, at their age, their families would worry if they went out alone.

The mansion quickly became lively. The older folks didn’t pay much mind, but the conflicts between Finn Lewis and Norton James had spread amongst the youngsters. Of course, having learned of Norton James’s identity, most of the young people didn’t hold out much hope for Finn Lewis. Even though they didn’t know much about his background, could he really compare to Norton James?

But Finn Lewis didn’t care, he didn’t need recognition from these people, as long as Kay Lee thought highly of him. Soon it was time for the dinner banquet. The first part of the birthday party was the ceremony of salutation. Although Grandfather Davis didn’t want to make a big fuss, there were so many guests, and many insisted on offering a salute, especially Norton James, who was the loudest.

It didn’t need much thought to know that this guy was preparing to show off again, or planning something nasty. Otherwise, he wouldn’t make such a fuss about paying respect to Grandfather Davis. Now that it was time for paying respect, naturally gifts were involved. The gifts from Grandfather Davis’s own children were not a problem. As for others like Cypress Davis, they hadn’t really prepared any gifts. Grandfather Davis didn’t lack anything, so everyone only brought some common items.

Everyone knew when it was Norton James’s turn, he bowed ceremoniously to Grandfather Davis, then raised his head and said, “Grandfather Davis, I wish you a very Happy Birthday, good health, and a long life. I personally went to the Terra Hall Headquarters in the capital to choose this for you.” After saying that, he took a box from one of his men behind him and handed it to Grandfather Davis.

Thunder Davis, being the eldest grandson of Grandfather Davis, naturally accepted the gifts on his behalf. He stepped forward, took the gift from Norton James, and immediately opened it in front of everyone. The box was not large, but when he opened it and exposed the contents, everyone couldn’t help but be moved. Inside the box was a well-preserved ginseng.

“This… This is too much.” Upon seeing the size of the ginseng, Grandfather Davis, having received a number of ginseng gifts over the years, knew that the price of this ginseng must be staggering, especially considering the giver’s social standing. The ginseng he was giving couldn’t possibly be ordinary; It must be a wild ginseng.

“Grandfather Davis, you were my grandfather’s comrade-in-arms, and my grandfather often said that if you hadn’t saved his life when he was young, he might have died in the field. Without my grandfather, there would be none of us descendants. It’s only right for me to give you this gift. Although this century-old mountain ginseng is rare, I hope both you and my grandfather will live for another thirty years. This is also what my grandfather personally told me to give you.” Norton James lowered his head and said respectfully.

His words were beautiful, not only pointing out the value of his gift but also incorporating the themes of respect and filial piety, which left Grandfather Davis unable to refute. All he could to was sigh, “Then I’ll accept it. Mr. Laurence, this talk about saving lives, we were war comrades. Who hasn’t saved who back then?”
