Chapter 874 Toasting to Miss Ziegler
Leroy was no longer polite to Ronald now. As Ronald was the heir previously, Leroy had to respect him. Now that he was no longer the heir, how would Leroy care about him? Besides, Leroy was humiliated tonight because of Ronald, which caused Leroy to be filled with hate and displeasure.
At this moment, Ronald was still unwilling to kneel, so Leroy personally stepped on him and pressed him hard on the ground to bow three times to Matthew.
“Mr. Larson, are you satisfied?” Leroy then asked in a respectful voice.
Matthew smiled gently. “Since you have kneeled, I will let this matter slide. Actually, these things didn’t have to happen in the first place. Your nephew doesn’t know my wife at all. How could he have caused such trouble?”
Leroy’s expression changed as he heard the underlying meaning within Matthew’s words. He immediately looked at the other few rich youngsters and asked in a deep voice, “Guys, what happened tonight?”
Those few rich youngsters were just about to speak when Matthew waved his hand. “All right, if there’s anything else to say, you guys should head out to talk. We have friends over here!”
Leroy hurriedly nodded and smiled before taking those rich youngsters out with him as well. After the Lach Family left, Matthew then looked at Cecilia and the others with a smile. Then, he said, “Come, let me introduce you to them. This is my friend, Master Tiger of South Street. He’s a real big shot in Eastcliff City. Those around him are all our good friends. Come on, Tiger, call the others in and give a toast to Sasha’s classmates. They said earlier that Ronald gave a toast to Sasha because he looks up to her. And Sasha was being disrespectful by not drinking in return. Since these are her classmates, you have to respect them too!”
Tiger immediately understood and smiled. “Don’t worry, Mr. Larson; we will definitely treat them well!”
Next, he ran to the door and waved over with his hand before hundreds of people ran in at his motion. He was the first to toast to Cecilia. “Come, Miss Ziegler, let me toast you with a glass of wine. You have to drink; otherwise, you’ll be disrespecting me!”
With that, Tiger downed the glass of wine in one go and stared straight at her. Her face was pale; she knew that Matthew was retaliating for what she had just said. In fact, she was not a fool. Of course, she could see that Ronald was interested in Sasha earlier. As he was the heir of the Lach Family, she was trying to befriend him by speaking up for him. She never thought that the Lach Family would not be able to win against Matthew. Cecilia was panicking, but more than that, she regretted being involved in this matter. If she knew what would have happened, she would have just firmly supported her classmate and not ended up in this state!
Considering Matthew’s influence, even the Lach Family had to be polite to him. If she could befriend Matthew, wasn’t it much better than befriending Ronald? The most crucial thing was that she had said words that she did not mean and now she was reaping what she sowed, which was really hard for her to stomach!
Upon seeing that Cecilia did not take the glass, Tiger looked coldly at her. “What, are you disrespecting me now?”
The group behind him also angrily stared at her. Judging from the situation, if she did not drink, she would not be able to leave the room today.
A pale Cecilia then looked at Sasha for help. Sasha, on the other hand, simply ignored her since she had given up on her classmates after what had happened. Cecilia sighed, knowing that Sasha would no
longer help her.
Thus, she gritted her teeth and picked up the glass of wine on the table. “I-I can’t drink much, so I’ll just drink this glass. Thank you…”
After saying that, she tilted her neck and drank the wine. When he saw her finish drinking, a man next to Tiger immediately emerged. “Oh, no. Since you drink the wine toasted by Tiger, you should also drink my toast, right? What, do you only look up to Tiger alone and look down on the rest of us?”
