Outside the villa, neatly parked cars stretched as far as the eye could see.In the garden, by the pool, and on the court, there seemed to be shadows of people moving about. Sophie Smith was puzzled. Who were these people?
But she didnāt have time to think much about it now. Eva Miller was still waiting for her outside the villa. She just wanted to quickly gather her things and leave, so she hurried towards the hall.
However, as soon as she stepped through the door, she regretted her rashness.
In the living room, there were inexplicably so many strangers...
Men and women, young and old...
Sophie found it hard to move. The initially noisy living room fell silent upon her entrance. Perhaps because there were so many people, she looked around for a long time without spotting Asher Land.
She steadied herself. In this large living room, there were at least twenty people standing, yet she only recognized three.
Asher Land, Irene Morton, and Luke Land.
But wasnāt Luke Land supposed to be back in Europe? Why was he here? Could it be that all the people standing in the living room had come to Eastern City to celebrate Asher Landās birthday, his family?
Irene had said just this morning that they would come in a few days. How could they arrive so quickly? She wasnāt prepared at all.
Sophieās mind was racing back and forth, and she didnāt make a sound, while everyoneās eyes focused on her āstrangerā face.
Irene, standing a few steps away, didnāt speak. She thought to herself, letās see how Sophie handles this situation.
Asher Landās dark eyes were slightly startled. Just as he was about to walk over and pull her to his side, Luke Land quickly stopped him.
"What do you intend to do?" Luke Land whispered, "Father and big brother are here. Donāt cause a scene." He kindly reminded him.
"Donāt meddle in my affairs." Asher Land shook off his hand. She stood there so helplessly, and he didnāt want to see her like that.
But Luke Land got to Sophie first.
"Wow, little brother, I didnāt realize you knew your second brother so well!" Luke Land affectionately wrapped his arm around Sophieās waist, pulling her into his embrace. Sophie didnāt understand and instinctively tried to resist.
"Iāve just arrived in Eastern City, and youāve already prepared such a beautiful woman for your brother. Tsk tsk, thank you so much."
Sophieās face gradually darkened. What on earth was Luke Land up to now?
Just as Asher Land was about to step forward, a strong, authoritative voice sounded behind him.
"Luke, mind your manners in front of your Uncle Morton!"
Sophie looked in the direction of the voice and saw an elderly man, around sixty, walking out with a dragon-topped cane. Though aged, he exuded an aura of silent authority.
The old man wore a black Zhongshan suit, looking vibrant and spirited. However, there was a few-centimeter-long scar on his right cheek, giving him a somewhat sinister and intimidating appearance.
This elder was none other than Asher Landās father, Nathan Land.
Luke Land didnāt dare to say anything more after Nathan Landās angry rebuke.
Luke Land was known for his romantic escapades, and the family was used to this behavior. But with the Morton Clan Group also present today, Nathan Land couldnāt let his son bring shame?
"Asher, donāt bring any more disreputable women to your second brother in the future!"
