Chapter 120: Father-in-law’s Birthday

Chapter 120: Father-in-law’s Birthday

Today was Marcus's birthday.

The family of Samuel's second wife had been beating the drums from the early morning.

Many relatives came to the party, which was really a big occasion.

Near the noon, a fancy car stopped at the door of Victoria's home.

Humphrey pushed the door open and stretched his Givenchy suit.

The suit he was wearing was a latest limited edition of Givenchy, which was released recently in the Milan Fashion Show. It cost almost 15 thousand dollars abroad, and it probably cost double the price at home.

He tidied his sleeves, raised his elbow to look at his shining Rolex wristwatch, smiling.

Although Rolex watches were not of the top quality, the rich people at home were fond of them very much. People might not

know Patek Philippe, but they definitely recognized the shining Rolex.

Humphrey came home from abroad recently, and had prepared for this occasion for a long time. He even paid attention to such details as his watch.

Opening the back door of his fancy car, Humphrey took out some fancy presents, which were for Victoria's mother.

Humphrey was Victoria's classmate in high school, and had a crush on her. After high school, he followed his family to further

his study abroad, and got a master degree in Economics.

He had worked at the Wall Street for a few years, and was now the general manager of DK Investment Company in H City right now.

DK Investment Company was a rising star in H City, and had already raised a fund over one billion dollars. It was developing

very fast due to Humphrey's superior management skills.

Humphrey had returned for more than half a year, and kept close contact with Victoria's mother, as he sent gifts to her once in a while.

This time, the birthday party for Victoria's father was proposed by Humphrey, and he wanted to use this opportunity to force

Victoria to divorce with Maximilian.

Victoria, as a well-known beauty in H City, naturally attracted many admirers, and Humphrey was among them.

Thinking that his plan was going so well, Humphrey's eyebrows naturally raised and he walked quickly towards Victoria's home.

There were all relatives and families in Victoria's home, and many of them had arrived early to chat with Marcus.

Maximilian was standing in his bedroom, looking at the clothes in his wardrobe. Eventually, he put on the Givenchy suit.

After all, clothes were destined to be worn by people. In addition, today was the birthday of his father- in-law, and he had to wear some nice to show his respect.

Of course, he had already forgotten Iris’ intimidating words.

Knock, knock.

Humphrey was knocking at the front door. Laura's heart leaped and thought it might be Humphrey. She said, “Victoria, go and

open the door. Some guest is waiting outside.”

Victoria raised her eyebrows, thinking that there should not be anyone coming now, because all the relatives had arrived.

When she opened the door, and looked at Humphrey, who was in a nice suit, she was kind of shocked. She felt the person in front of her was kind of familiar, but she didn't know his name.

“Who are you?” Victoria asked.

“lam Humphrey, your classmate in high school.” Humphrey said.

Looking at Victoria's beautiful face, Humphrey's heart was about to melt. How could such a beauty be the wife of a jerk?

Victoria, just wait for me. I would save you from that jerk. I was the Monkey King who came to Victoria, stepping on a colorful cloud.

The thought was roaring in Humphrey's heart like crazy.

“Well, it is you. It has been a long time since we met last time. Aren't you abroad?”

Victoria recalled him, and opened the door to let him in.

Looking at Humphrey, Laura was like she was looking at his son-in-law.

For the past six months, Humphrey was always sending gifts to Laura, ranging from cosmetics, food, to clothes, which were

all of international brands.

Laura had always compared Humphrey with Maximilian, and after comparison, she found Maximilian was just a shit, no, even worse than shit.

The shit son-in-law had never given her anything in these years.

“Laura, this is something for you, please keep it.”

Humphrey gave the gifts to Laura, and winked at her.

Laura was too happy to care about her image. She said with a smile, “Humphrey, do not treat me like a guest when you come to my home. You do not need to bring me anything when you come next time.”

“These are small gifts, which are not worth much. I heard that today was Marcus’ birthday, I had reserved a room in Lasdun, and we can go together later.”

Humphrey said, not taking himself as a guest.

“Thank you so much, Humphrey. You are still caring about me and Marcus after so many years.”

Laura introduced him to the relatives excitedly, “Allow me to introduce you. This is Humphrey, a classmate of Victoria in high school. He is the general manager of DK Investment right now.”

All the relatives looked at Humphrey, and greeted him. They moved their eyes to Victoria, and thought that Humphrey was not here for Marcus’ birthday, but for Victoria.

Marcus, the leading role today, was sitting in the center seat, chatting with his relatives.

At this moment, he looked at Humphrey, and said happily, “Humphrey, have a seat. Victoria, make tea for Humphrey.”

Victoria heard it and went to make tea. Then she held the tea and passed it to Humphrey.

Humphrey took the tea politely, and said thanks. His eyes noticed her perfect figure in an office-lady style dress, and her skin was silky. Her delicate face and the fragrance from her body were stimulating his senses.

Gorgeous! Such a gorgeous beauty should belong to him, Humphrey.

“DK Investment was a big investment company. I heard it made huge profits recently. Humphrey, are you the one who is managing it? You can recommend some good stocks to us.”

At this moment, a friend of Marcus said with a smile.

‘That is right! You own an investment company, and earn a lot of money. We can also earn some if you can tell us some

inside news.”

All the relatives right now took Humphrey as a gem stone, and seemed to see the light of wealth from Humphrey.

‘This is not a big deal. I will tell Marcus something later, and you can ask him if you want to follow.”

Humphrey took the chance to flatter Marcus.

Marcus was extremely proud after hearing his words. He knew Humphrey was helping him raise his social status. He said

with a smile, “Humphrey is a good man. If everyone asks him, it will be wasting his time. I will keep in touch with him and give you the information you want.”

All the relatives started to flatter Marcus, and his attitude toward Humphrey changed immediately.

After all the flattering and laughter, Marcus thought about Maximilian, who was almost a good-for- nothing. He was choked by

the fact that his son-in-law was not Humphrey.

“Where is Maximilian? What time it is! All the relatives have come, and he is still in his room. He is not polite at all.”

Marcus became even angrier after saying these words.

Victoria answered in panic, “I'll go and call him.”

Humphrey stood up and said with a smile, “I have heard something about Maximilian, but I haven't seen him in person yet. I

can take this chance to meet him. He must be a great guy to marry Victoria!"
