Slumdog Billionaire Husband

Chapter 202 The Banquet Comes to an End
Sergio wasn’t interested in competing with Leo, and many people felt that Leo was the heir of the Clay family.
In fact, the relationship between Sergio and Leo was quite subtle.
Though Sergio did not like to compete, Leo was different. He had to compete with Sergio for everything since he was a child.
Leo was humiliated, which somehow made Sergio feel good.
Around them, almost everyone was dumbfounded.
Leo and Glenn were particularly stunned.
They thought, Arthur is a top big shot in Washington, and he is bowing to Gerald. Who the heck is Gerald? They panicked.
Gerald let go of Monica and looked at Arthur. He said, “It has indeed been a while.”
Gerald saved Arthur about five years ago. In the two years after that, Gerald sometimes came to Washington to carry out some
missions. During that, he would occasionally ask those big shots in Washington for help, so he and Arthur stayed in touch.
Such a situation kept going on until Gerald went missing three years ago.
Arthur quickly nodded and said, “Some stupid assholes offended you because of my negligence. I will deal with them now.”
After that, he turned to look at Leo and Glenn.
Leo and Glenn’s bodies could not help but tremble slightly. Glenn’s face was especially ugly.
Glenn thought, Leo might survive. After all, the Clay family is among the top in Washington. Arthur needs to be cautious when
dealing
with Leo.
But I’m just a nobody! I can’t afford the consequences!
“Apologize to him,” Arthur said to Leo and Glenn indifferently.

Leo exhaled. He was a sensible person who could read the situation in time. Although he was unhappy, he still quickly nodded
and said to Gerald, “I’m sorry, Gerald. I didn’t know that you were so close to Kerr and Mr. Frey. I hope you can forgive me for
offending
you.”
“You are quite shrewd.” Gerald touched his nose and glanced at Arthur.
Glenn, who was next to them, gritted his teeth. Then, in front of everyone, he knelt on the ground with a thump and hurriedly
said, “Gerald, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. I was wrong. You are the bigger man here. Forgive me.”
Everyone looked at Gerald. Gerald sighed and waved his hand slightly. “Forget it. Just go away and stay aside. I don’t like to be
disturbed.”
Glenn wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and looked at Arthur..
“You heard him,” Arthur said.
Glenn hurriedly nodded and walked to the side, and Leo also stood up and walked not far away.
Glenn and Leo were utterly embarrassed today.
Besides, what happened today would be known by all of their family members. Their families would be implicated by them. Who
knew what their families would do to them after they went back?
Leo would be the unlucky one.
He was walking on thin ice for the inheritance rights of the Clay family.
Though he had shown the others how strong his comprehensive quality was till now, it couldn’t be said for sure that he would be
the
heir.
Sergio had been a playboy all the time. Even so, many people at home still supported him.
The reason was that Leo was not the son of the eldest son of the Clay family.

After they left, Gerald said to Arthur, “Go ahead and do whatever you have to do. Don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine staying here
alone.”
“Alright then. I will go and host the banquet.” Arthur nodded.
After Arthur left, Kerr came over. He looked at Gerald complacently and said, “Gerald, I can’t believe you showed up here
without.
telling me. That’s not a decent thing to do. If you told me in advance, I would make sure that no one would dare to offend you, let
alone Glenn and Leo! I would break their legs if they showed you any disrespect!”
Then he said slyly, “Do you want me to find someone to beat the shit out of these two assholes later? Especially Leo. He has
been a pain in the ass for me for a long time. What a hypocrite.”
Stacey patted Kerr’s head and said, “Kerr, stop with those violent words. Believe it or not, I will tell Grandpa after we go back.”
“Stacey, I was just joking!” Kerr quickly said.
Gerald smiled at Kerr and said, “You guys go and have fun. Don’t worry about me.”
Stacey nodded. She looked at Gerald and said, “Alright then. Let’s grab dinner some other time”
Gerald nodded.
After Stacey and Kerr left, Arthur walked up to the stage and said, “Everyone, the main purpose of today’s banquet is to help
everyone
get along. Also, I’d like to officially introduce my son, Colby. I know some of you might have a bad impression of the brat. But
from
today onwards, he will take over some of our family’s businesses, and I hope that you might lend him a hand when the time
comes.”
Gerald watched with interest.
Beside Gerald, Monica pouted and said, “My dad is crazy. He actually asked my brother to do business. My brother doesn’t have
what

it takes at all.”
When Gerald heard her ridicule, he couldn’t help but burst out laughing. He rubbed Monica’s head and said, “How old are you
now?”
“I’m sixteen,” Monica said. “I’m already in my first year of high school now. Speaking of which, you promised me before that
when I was in my third year of middle school, you and Carolyn would bring me out to have fun.”
Gerald was dumbfounded. Monica was right. When Gerald saved her for the first time, she was only eleven years old, yet now,
she
had become a beautiful teenage girl.
“Something has happened in these three years,” Gerald touched his nose and said. “Besides, Watchmen can get very busy
sometimes.”
Monica said, “Anyway, I will join you in the future. I have already told my dad that I will join you when I graduate from college.”
Gerald scratched her head and said, “Focus on your studies, OK? Stop fantasizing.”
Monica stuck out her tongue. Then she looked around and asked, “Gerald, you still don’t have a girlfriend, right? Do you fancy
anyone
here? I can set you up with someone.”
“You quick-witted girl!” Gerald rubbed her head and said. “Enough. Go and sit aside. Leave me alone for a while.”
“No! I haven’t seen you in a long time. You have to stay with me for a while,” Monica said.
They chatted while sitting on the sofa.
When Ingrid saw that Gerald was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief deep down and then chatted with her friends around her.
The banquet went on. Meanwhile, many people took the initiative to greet Gerald and handed him their business cards, and
Gerald put them away properly.
Gerald was now utterly famous among the richest in Washington.

The banquet continued until around ten o’clock in the evening. Colby behaved decently and chatted with many people.
Gerald had been sitting in the corner and chatting with Monica. At ten o’clock in the evening, the banquet came to an end.
Gerald said goodbye to Ingrid and took a taxi back to the place where he lived.
There weren’t too many surprises during the whole banquet.
Gerald returned home with countless business cards.
What surprised Gerald was that Valery and Macy, again, did not go out. The three girls were sitting on the sofa.
“You didn’t go out on night duty today? Again?” Gerald asked.
Valery looked at Gerald. A smile gradually could be seen on her cold face while she said, “Washington Great Five, huh? What a
great
reputation.”
Gerald was speechless. Obviously, other Watchmen were also at the banquet today, or perhaps Valery had seen the surveillance
video.
of the venue.
He coughed and said, “Kerr was blabbering. I was not interested in such a title.”
“Is that so?” Valery glanced at him and said. “Birds of a feather flock together. You look pretty close to Kerr to me.”
A smile appeared on Carolyn’s face. Then she said, “Dr. Manning, stop teasing him. Get down to business!”
“What business?” Gerald asked.
“About the Dempsey family,” Valery smiled.
“Huh?” Gerald’s expression changed.
