Noble Husband At the Door

Chapter 19

Three days later at the Sue family villa.

The old lady held a celebration banquet for Yvonne and all relatives of the Sue family were present.

During the banquet, Yvonne explained the cooperation with Weakriver Real Estate in detail and the old

lady was incredibly happy when she heard it. Meanwhile, the rest of the Sue family’s relatives had

sinister intentions because Yvonne's future position i n the company was bound to be unshakeable

after her advancement to a more senior role became a reality.

After all, Weakriver Real Estate wanted to develop the city's west side into a city center. A project like

that would no doubt take a long time to finish.

If the project was not yet over, could anyone even upend Yvonne's status?

Harvey's expression was exceedingly ugly. He was originally the highest-ranking person within the

younger generation in the company, and he was expected to become the successor to the Sue family's

chairman. With Yvonne in power, his influence in the company would be eroded silently. In any case,

he was still rather thankful that Yvonne was a woman-Harvey believed that his grandmother would not

hand the entire company over to a woman. 3

In addition to the celebration banquet, there was

another major event happening in Cloud City that day -the auction for the hillside villa at Cloudridge

Hill.

Although the Sue family were unable to entertain their fantasies, they still paid close attention to the

development.

"The hillside villa is going to auction today. I wonder who's able to get it."

"There are only three families in Cloud City who have the strength to bid for it. It depends on who's

willing t o spend more money to prove themselves."

"I heard that the estimated transaction price fluctuates at sixty million bucks. It’s practically living i n a

pile of money."

"These people are the cream of the crop amongst the rich. They couldn't care less about money if it

means adding to their reputation." 1

Vara, Yvonne's cousin, was very confident in herself when the Hannigan family presented the betrothal

gift last time. She thought that the Hannigan family’s betrothal gifts were given to her, so at that

juncture she concluded. "Maybe there are other people that might bid for this villa."

"Yara, you mean ..."

"Didn't the Hannigan family present us with a betrothal gift? It's been so long, but he hasn't revealed his

true face yet. We have no idea why he's being so mysterious. Maybe he just wants to give me a big

surprise." Yara smiled confidently as if she was

certain that the Hannigan family came for her.

The rest of the Sue family’s younger generation females were a little unhappy when they heard that, 1

Indeed, Yara was the most beautiful amongst all of

them, so it was most likely for her to be taken a fancy upon.

"If that’s the case, wouldn’t our Sue family have the chance to live in Cloudridge Hill Villas?"

Even the old lady was a little moved when she heard that. Although the cooperation with Weakriver

Real Estate was likely to elevate the Sue family into one of Cloud City's first-rate families. If that

Hannigan family really did buy the hillside villa, some of the prestige would also rub off on the Sue

family. Should they join forces, the Sue family’s status in Cloud City was likely t o surpass the three

great families that existed as of

then. It was something the old lady did not dare to think about.

"It’s a pity that he hasn't shown up yet," the old lady lamented. The benefactor sent such an expensive

betrothal gift, but he still did not show up even after s o much time had passed. The old lady found it

very puzzling.

"A man like him will definitely be an amazing person. He’ll come for me when he's ready," Yara said. 2

At that time, Samuel was engrossed in eating and did not participate in their conversation.

Harvey shot him a scornful look and said, "No one’s going to take the food away from you. Haven’t you

ever eaten such delicious food before?"

His sentence elicited disdainful looks from the others. Though they no longer dared to go against

Yvonne on a whim, they did not need to accord any respect to their live-in son-in-law.

"I'm almost getting tired of eating these delicacies." 1

"Some people are poor, so it’s normal if they've never eaten these before."

"I really don't know what it feels like to be so useless."

The old lady coughed and the sarcastic remarks stopped.
