I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 136
Ken nodded secretly when he saw how David was not impatient when facing so many questions from
so many people.
Even though David lent 100 million to their family and helped them through the crisis, Ken would not
want to hand Tara to him if he was an ignorant, incompetent, and arrogant rich kid.
After all, this was related to his daughter’s happiness for the rest of her life. However, he could not
quickly return the money to David, so he felt conflicted. What if David was really an ignorant and
incompetent rich kid?
Luckily, David’s performance was satisfactory so far. He was a super-rich kid, yet he could still be so
humble and self-effacing when he was answering questions from so many people.
It proved that David had a good character, so Ken was relieved.
Meanwhile, David felt tired.
He was exhausted!
If he knew this would happen, he would not have come no matter what.
People who have never experienced being questioned by aunts would never know how formidable this
was. David felt that even fighting with Zachary was not this exhausting.
Everyone was asking him questions at the same time such that David could feel his brain buzzing.
The most important thing was that some of them were even looking down on him, which made him feel
helpless.
He wanted to tell them that he was the world’s richest man.
However, no one would believe him if he said that.
Finally, he made it through the questions from those people in the living room, but then, four to five
middle -aged women walked out of the kitchen and asked everyone to get ready to eat. After they did
that, they started bombarding David with questions again.
David felt extremely uncomfortable during the meal because everyone was taking good care of this
new son-in-law of the Smith family.
They would propose toasts to him and would take food for him.
On one hand, Tara was a little dazed as she watched David smiling even though he was being
surrounded and attacked by her family.
How great would it be if this was real?
She wished this was real and David was her boyfriend.
If that was the case, then she would be the happiest woman on earth.
Finally, they finished eating.
Since David’s physical condition had been upgraded, he did not feel drunk even though he drank a lot
of alcohol.
On the other hand, more than half of the people who were toasting David had passed out.
David wanted to leave during the afternoon, but since he drank alcohol, the Smiths insisted that he
stay.
It could not be helped. Thus, David could only pretend to be drunk until Tara finally brought him into her
room to take a nap.
On the other hand, he was also scared that these people would start bombarding him again in the
afternoon. If that happened, he would go insane.
At night, David was woken up by Tara who told him it was time for dinner.
David noticed that aside from him and Tara, there was no one else in the house.
“We’re having dinner at a hotel tonight. They’ve already left and we’re the only two in the house now,”
Tara said.
“We should go then.” David was about to walk out the door as he said that.
“David,” Tara called out suddenly.
“Huh?” David turned his head to look at her.
“Thanks for today.” Tara whispered.
“For what? I should be the one thanking you. Your family is very passionate and it’s rare for me to have
a home-cooked meal,” David said with a grin.
“I know you’re comforting me. A rich kid like you might not be used to people surrounding you and
asking you questions, right? Also, they’re looking down on you so much, but you endured all of that
because of m e. I appreciate that so much!”
“Um… It’s actually nothing, Tara. We’re friends and we should help each other.”
Tara put her arms around David from behind. Since she was 172cm, she leaned her head on David’s
shoulder and sobbed as she said, “David, why are you so good to me? What should I do? I like you so
much now.”
David felt a little capricious as he felt Tara’s softness on him.
“T-Tara, please don’t do this,” David said quickly. He was worried that he would not be able to control
himself.
Back then, Amelia made him all hot and bothered after she flirted with her, and only the incident
surrounding Aunt Sally interrupted it. Now, Tara was doing it again?
I am not a monk, okay?
‘Why do all of you love playing with fire?’
“David, can you let me hold you? Don’t say anything, just let me hold you quietly.”
After hearing what Tara said, David did not feel so hot and bothered anymore. He did not say anything
and only quietly felt the warmth of Tara’s body against his.
About ten minutes later, Tara let go of David and wiped away the tear streaks on her face.
“Thank you, David. Let’s go. My family will get anxious if we’re late.”
After Tara said that, she walked forward while David smiled bitterly and followed her.
After they went downstairs, David drove himself and Tara to the hotel. This was the only five-star hotel
in Goat City.
The people who could eat there were famous and reputable people in Goat City. This place
represented the most excellent service in Goat City.
The two of them walked to the private room Ken booked. It was a very big room, and it was not
crowded even when there were three fully-seated tables in the room.
Everyone was already there as they waited for David and Tara.
“Tara, why did you take so long? Everyone’s waiting for you two,” Tara’s Aunt Mary said.
Even though David’s performance was great, his family background was not good enough, so a lot of
them looked down on him.
Hence, it was natural they would complain about the two being late.
Moreover, Ken’s aid to his relatives might decrease in the future with this son-in-law around.
This was the biggest reason why they did not like David.
He was handsome and he was studying in a prestigious university. If Ken got himself a live-in son-in-
law, then their profit would be greatly reduced.
“I’m sorry, Aunt Mary. There was a traffic jam just now so that’s why we’re a little late.”
“Sit down now, I’ll ask the waiters to bring in our food,” Laura said.
David and Tara quickly sat down next to each other.
Soon, the waiters started to bring in the food.
No one proposed toasts to David anymore. Perhaps his alcohol tolerance in the afternoon had scared
everyone.
Still, everyone had a lot of fun during dinner.
Halfway through the dinner, Ken stood up with his wine glass and said, “This toast is for you, David.”
David also quickly stood up with his glass. He said, “You’re being too courteous, Mr. Smith. This toast
is for you.”
“David, sit down and wait for me to finish. I think everyone knows that I’ve been scammed. The reason
why I could make a comeback so quickly is all thanks to David. If David didn’t lend me 100 million
dollars, I don’t think I could ever make a comeback in my lifetime. So, I have to toast you, David. You
saved my entire family. Thank you!”
