42 The Smith Family Visits, Bringing Humiliation on Themselves

The accident back caused Liam to stay in hiding for more than ten years.

Now, there was no need to hide anymore. The fourth master of the Neal family was back!

Preston City, the Neal family’s manor.

The black convoy slowly passed through the entrance just in time to see a girl glaring angrily at the car.

She said coquettishly, “Braydon, you liar! You agreed that you would pick me up but in the end, i waited for an hour and a half without seeing anyone!”

Braydon was stunned. He had forgotten about this matter indeed.

Braydon had originally promised to pick Heather up after her class in the afternoon, but he had forgotten about it.

“Heather, do you still remember me?” Qahira got out of the car with flushed red eyes.

“You are... my aunt!”

Heather was dumbfounded.

After so many years, it was not only her, but everyone else also thought that Qahira was dead.

When she suddenly disappeared back then, she was nowhere to be found, dead or alive.

She had made Old Lady Sage sad for a long time but no one expected her to suddenly appear today.

Louis’s eyes were slightly red. He strode forward and hugged Liam tightly as he said in a low voice, “Fourth brother!”

“Big brother!” Liam’s eyes also turned red.

They really had mixed feelings after meeting each other again after thirteen years.

The family had endless things to say to each other in the bright hall after they were reunited.

Heather had already informed her grandmother, and the Sage family’s convoy rushed to the Neal family’s house again overnight.

Old Lady Sage rushed over with her walking stick. “Qahira! Is Qahira here?”

“Mom!”

Qahira cried her eyes out and knelt in front of the old lady.

She did not dare to call home for thirteen years for Liam’s sake and this was accompanied by feelings of worry and fear!

She was worried that the Neal family would find out that Liam was alive and sent people to take revenge.

He was even more afraid that after the ning family found out, they would go all out against the SU family!

Old Lady Sage’s tears could not stop flowing. “Silly girl, everything is good as long as you’re still alive. I was really afraid that you will follow in the footsteps of your two elder brothers!”

The family was reunited.

The two juniors, Heather and Braydon, chose to leave quietly and give them some private time.

Heather sat on the wall of the roof of the bright hall. Her well-proportioned legs were dangling over the wall and she was supporting her chin with her hands as she looked at the bright moon in the sky.

“What are you thinking about?” Braydon chuckled with his hands behind his back.

“You didn’t leave?” Heather rolled her eyes.

Braydon spoke up, “I couldn’t pick you up this afternoon because I went to pick my Fourth Uncle up. Why don’t you make a little wish to the moon? Perhaps I can help to fulfill your wish!”

“You don’t have to explain. I’ll know what you’ve been up to after seeing my aunt!”

Heather shook her legs and said tentatively, “I really made a wish!”

In the end, Braydon did not know whether to laugh or cry. He was the majestic Northern King. Did he have to lie to a girl?

Heather put her hands together and said seriously, “My first wish is for grandma and Aunt to be safe and sound from now on!”

From her words, it was obvious that she had other little wishes.

How could a twenty-year-old girl not have her own wishes?

As expected.

Heather sincerely made a wish, “My second wish is for Sage Group’s financing to go smoothly so that my elder brother can take a breather!”

Braydon’s deep eyes flashed with a touch of light, “Sage Group is raising funds?”

“It has been going on for three months. I heard from my elder brother that the progress is slow and the conditions there are very harsh.”

Heather felt a little melancholy.

Braydon chuckled. “Withdraw the financing. The Sage family and Neal family will take over the Preston City New District project together!”

“It’s not as easy as you make it out to be. Don’t disturb my wish!” Heather glared at him.

Next, it was time for her to make her little wish.

Her first two wishes were for her family, which proved that they were very important to her.

Braydon was a little curious about what wish Heather would make.

Heather’s first two wishes were not a problem for Braydon.

With him in Preston City, no one would dare to touch the Sage family.

As for Sage Group, it was not a problem at all for the Neal family now.

The Neal family had just received a capital injection of ten billion US dollars and had plenty of leftover money. It would not be a problem to help the Sage family tide over this crisis.

When Harold came earlier, he proposed to let Braydon break off the engagement at a high price. Was it a harsh condition proposed by the investor behind the scenes?

It would be interesting if that was true.

Heather then made another wish to the moon. “I have one last small wish. I hope that someone who has never been to school can get into Preston University and finish the four years of courses!”

...

The corner of Braydon’s mouth twitched slightly and he noticed Heather’s sneaky glance.

She was obviously referring to Braydon!

The key point was that Braydon had attended school, and it was Northern military school, which was second to none in the country and had seven major branches.

Even though the things he learned were somewhat different from those in other universities, he was still a student.

However, those theoretical knowledge were all self-learned after school. When Braydon was eleven years old, he had learned all the theoretical knowledge.

Braydon said, “In fact, the certificate from Northern military school is much more valuable than that of Preston University!”

“The key point is the outside world has never heard of the Northern military school. Will other companies recognize your degree when you look for a job in the future?” Heather was unhappy.

She felt that Braydon was a blockhead.

These words made Braydon laugh!

Although he was a commoner with no official title, he was still the Northern King and had a million troops in the Northern Territory to defend the frontier and guard against foreign enemies.

Which company would dare to hire such a person?

...

Heather suddenly came to a realization. “Oh, that’s right. You’re the eldest son of the Neal family so you’re going to inherit Neal Group in the future. It seems that you don’t need a university diploma.”

It was a typical passive-aggresive method.

“You don’t have to provoke me. Since I’ve already said that I’ll fulfill your little wish, I naturally won’t go back on my word. A graduation certificate from Preston University is not a problem for me!”

Braydon noticed the arrival of outsiders and disappeared from the roof.

Heather wrinkled her nose slightly and rolled her eyes.

She was not stupid. She knew that regardless of the subject, the students of Preston University had to take a comprehensive assessment. After all, the graduation thesis was very high-quality.

Braydon actually said that the graduation certificate was a small problem for him.

Heather naturally did not believe it but she would understand in the future that there were geniuses in this world.

And he was a true genius!

This genius was difficult to find in the world and was hailed a national scholar and was unparalleled in the world!

Three cars arrived at the gate of the Neal family’s manor.

The security guard at the entrance hurried outside the bright hall but he did not dare to trespass.

He hurriedly reported, “Patriach, the Smith family is here to visit!”

“Invite him in!”

Louis was slightly stunned. He did not expect someone from the Smith family to come at this time.

Of the seven noble families in Preston City, the Neal family was in charge and no one had been able to shake their position for decades.

The Larson family, who had always been challenging the Sage family, could only be ranked second.

The Sage family was next in line!

The Neal, Larson, Smith, Thomas, Yackley, Sage, and Quinn families were known as the seven noble families of Preston City.

The seven noble families supported the development of Preston City. They were existences that neither the underworld and the legal world dared to provoke.

The Smith family had sent three cars. The chairman of Smith Group, Carter Smith, came in person with a young man.

Qahira, Hanna Longwell, and the other family members had already entered the back room to chat.

Old Lady Sage sat on the main seat. Louis smiled brightly and said, “Chairman Smith, please excuse me for not going out to welcome you since you’ve arrived so late at night!”

“Louis Neal, don’t you fucking talk nonsense with me. I don’t care who wins or loses in the Neal family’s fight. This is your family’s own business!”

Carter had a furious expression on his face as he rebuked angrily, “But that son of yours is too much!”
