Chapter 240 If It’s Him, I Can Afford Anything!

“Mr. Lee?” Hugo was a little surprised, then he thought about the big shot surnamed Lee he knew. But he could not figure out any.

The one who sent such deluxe gift was undoubtedly a rich man who owned quite a lot fortune.

Carson and Gibson were also full of doubts, believing that there was no big shot surnamed Lee among the business partners of Wright Family.

But those gifts were right in front of them. Carson and others even guessed if someone sent it in a wrong way.

However, the birthday banquet was held in their own house, instead of in a hotel, so there was no possibility of giving it in a wrong way at all.

The crowd were discussing in a low voice to find out who gave the gift.

“Mr. Brooks, you make acquaintance with so many people. Do you know who is the one that sent me the gifts?”

“I have no idea. I know almost all the guests here today. There is no big shot surnamed Lee, and I have never heard any powerful family surnamed Lee in H City. This one is quite mysterious.”

“Can it not be that someone gives the gifts but has no relation with Wright Family? Maybe he wants to ask the Wright Family a favor with the gift? But it doesn’t make sense.”

The crowd was muttering, but they could not figure out who sent the gift.

Hugo sighed, then he arched his hand and said, “I’d like to ask the distinguished guest of honor to show up.”

There was silence in the hall and there was no response to Hugo at all. Then Hugo had no choice but to sit down.

Alfie glanced at Maximilian accidentally, and said with a sarcastic smile, “Maximilian Lee, are you the one who give the luxurious gift?”

In an instant, everyone’s attention was focused on Maximilian.

Victoria also looked at Maximilian doubtfully, realizing what he had said to her. Was it really him?

“Ah ha.” Tommy could not but help laughing and said with disdain, “Maximilian, the loser must have nothing to do with that Mr. Lee who sent the gift. If Maximilian can give such a gift, I can afford anything!”

“If the poor guy can give such gift, he must flaunt it earlier before, rather than be in silence.” Jessica mocked in a cold voice.

Oscar shook his head in disdain, “The loser has only a few hundred dollars a month as living expenses, and it is given by Victoria. It is impossible for him to prepare such luxurious gifts, even if he sells his all organs, like heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.

Victoria sighed silently and gave Maximilian a glance. She felt a little relieved when she saw calm expression on his face, as if he did not care about these words.

Sylvie sneered and said, “Our grandfather will be happy enough if the loser can give one of the items on the list, but he is just a good-for-nothing. He can’t give anything, but just hide in the corner.”

When Carson realized that they had not found out the Mr. Lee, he was trying to bring the topic back, thinking that he should not let Maximilian spoil his eldest son’s chance to be in the limelight.

“Don’t let the loser, who was disappointing and upsetting, spoil our good mood. Drew, raise your glass and propose a toast to your uncles now.”

Drew stood up with the glass in his hand, then he raised his glass to the guest with respect, “I’d like to extend my gratitude to my respectable uncles for you taking care of me. I hope you will give me the honor and offer me your advice and suggestions on many things in the future.”

Drew said beautiful words, which not only exalted himself, but made the guests happy.

The crowd raised their glasses and drank with Drew.

“Drew is really outstanding. This time he not only gets the development contract for the wasteland in the southern suburbs and gets in touch with the Topyuan Group. He must have a promising future.”

“Topyuan Group has invested quite a lot this time. I heard that the consortium behind is very wealthy and powerful. As long as one can get close to them, he will definitely make a lot fortune in the future.”

“If the wasteland can be well developed, your Wright Family will prosper and step on a path of rapid development. Drew had brought your family a cornucopia.”

The crowd was willing to give their praise to Drew. If Drew could lead his family to a new level in the future, they may need the help from Drew.

Hearing the compliments of the crowd, Drew was pleased, feeling that this day was the most brilliant day in his life.

Carson smiled proudly, believing that his branches of Wright Family had been in a leading position, and everything in Wright Family would be decided by his offspring.

“Thank you for your favor of Drew. Drew is still a young man, so we need your help in the future. I’d like to propose a toast to all of you.” Carson raised the glass and drank it up.

Hugo nodded and applauded Drew and Carson for their performance. “Drew, you are a nice boy. Continue to improve yourself. You are the best among your siblings, and you should give your siblings a hand so that all of you will have a bright future.”

“Grandpa, I get it. I’ll try my best to help my brothers and sisters, including Victoria’s husband.”

The faces of Laura and Marcus suddenly turned pale, having a feeling that Drew might have done something against Maximilian from his words.

Sylvie glanced at Laura, whose face was pale, then she smiled, “It’s said that one should give a hand to those in need rather than the poor. Drew, you should help others in moderation. Don’t be kind enough to help others, but end up being badgered and treated with ungratefulness.”

Drew smiled proudly, “That’s right. I got it. I’d like to help him find a good job then improve himself step by step.”

Laura clenched her fists and was about to say something when Drew asked, “Aunt Laura, where does the loser, oh, I’m sorry, your son-in-law work? What’s his position and how is his salary?”

Hearing Drew’s words, Laura blushed, then she pretended to drink tea without answering Drew.

But Drew was not angry, then he continued, “I heard that your son-in-law is working in a beauty salon? It’s not going to work like this. We have to find him a decent job. What’s his highest degree?”

Laura’s hand was trembling with the cup in her hand, clenching her teeth to keep herself from crying.

“It’s hard to arrange him for a job without a degree. But I think it’s appropriate for him to be a toilet cleaner.” Someone said sarcastically.
