‘How could they not come? Besides, they were humiliated in front of Sebastian recently and would
certainly find a way to take revenge.’
Taylor proudly stepped aside, waiting for the people of the Riddle family to greet him.
But after a long wait, and people were swarming around Nicole to talk to her, no one bothered to come
talking to him.
‘They’re all blind.’
Since Sebastian had not come, Taylor walked out angrily. Daniel was receiving guests when he saw
Taylor walk out angrily. He asked Taylor in a whisper, “Where are you going? The party venue is in the
opposite direction.
Taylor was pissed and pushed Daniel away. “The party has no class, and the host has a poor attitude;
why should I stay any longer?” Hearing Taylor’s unsparing criticism, Daniel was startled and could not
immediately find a word to respond.
Taylor thought Daniel was rendered speechless by what he said. He sneered, looking at him with disdain
in his eyes. “Look at you; probably you haven’t met people like us before. Go home and learn for a few
more years. Don’t embarrass yourself here.” As good-tempered as Daniel was, he felt offended and
pissed by Taylor’s blatantly humiliating words. Just as he was about to speak, a gentle voice came from
behind him.
“Sorry, I’m late.”
Daniel saw Taylor’s eyes widen in an instant; his arrogance vanished, and he now had a flattering look
on his face. “We have been waiting for you, Mr. Wyance,” Taylor said. ‘What?’ Sebastian has come?’
Daniel looked back and saw a personable man walking slowly toward him. The smile on the man’s face
was like a spring breeze, commanding yet friendly. Ignoring Taylor’s flattery, Sebastian walked over to
Daniel and held out his hand with a smile. “You must be Nicole’s father. Nice to meet you.”
Daniel shook hands with Sebastian and felt flattered. “Yes, I am. You know Nicole?”
Sebastian nodded gently. Taylor on the side was so surprised that his face turned pale. He never
expected that Sebastian would be so nice to the Riddle. Thinking of what Sebastian had just said and
looking at the back of the two of them who had such a friendly conversation, Taylor had cold sweat
trickling down his forehead. ‘How can this be? Didn’t I just shoot myself in the foot with my attitude
toward Daniel just now?’
Instead of leaving, he hurriedly turned back and tried to catch up with Sebastian, wanting to
explain himself. Just then, he spotted someone he knew in the crowd.
‘Isn’t that chubby guy beside Nicole Eric? Hasn’t he spoken to Sebastian alone before? Yet he is with
Nicole now. What has happened that I haven’t yet known?’
Taylor stood where he was, feeling that he had missed a lot.
Suddenly, a hand tapped on his shoulder from behind. He turned his head around and found that it was
Luke, whom he had not seen all this while.
‘Didn’t he lose the tender? I’m surprised he still has the mood to come to the Riddle family’s party.’
Luke looked at the lively party with a deep sense of jealousy in his eyes, which only vanished until he
saw Taylor. “Mr. Wyatt, do you know exactly why Mr. Wyance has selected the Riddle family?” Taylor
thought about Luke’s performance in the conference room earlier.
