Chapter 103
“A million dollars’ worth of useless jade shards?” Zachary’s eyes went wide with rage. “That is a Dugrayfamily heirloom! How dare you call it useless!”“Do not trouble yourself with a bum like him, Mr. Dugray!”Megan hurriedly pacified. “He’s just an orphan. Why would he know anything about familyheirlooms?”“Hahahaha!” Hearing that made him burst out laughing. “True. Why am I even trying toeducate a beggar?”A chilly glint flashed in Kingsley’s eyes as he coldly spoke up. “Anything I ownwould be worth more than this worthless antique.”Everyone in the room went silent as soon as he saidthat.After a pause, Zachary sniggered. “Are you still dreaming? Did you actually think someone like youcould ever own anything worth more than this antique?”In his eyes, Kingsley was just a thug or pettythief. There was no way Kingsley would own anything better than a Dugray family heirloom.Megansneered. “Brat, if your gift is worth less than a million dollars, I will be giving Mr. Dugray Cecilia’s handin marriage right away.”“That’s right.” Michael nodded. “You must show us how serious you are if youtruly wish to be with my daughter.”“I think this is all just an act he’s putting on,” Zachary said with alaugh as he leaned back in his seat. There was a proud look on his face as if he had already won whathe was asking for.“If he can show us something worth more than my gift, I’ll even holler uncle!” Zacharycontinued.Although Asher had yet to say a word, it was obvious from the look on his face that he waseager for a chance to laugh at Kingsley.“Let’s forget about it, Kingsley…” Cecilia whispered in adefeated voice.After all, no matter how rich Kingsley was, the two of them were only acting like acouple.She would never let him fork out such a huge sum to her parents.In response, he patted herhand to comfort her.Then, he said to Michael and Megan, “If my gift ends up being more valuable, youwill not force Cecilia to marry someone she does not love.”“Of course!” Michael said with a nod. “Youwould naturally be Cecilia’s boyfriend if you can offer us a worthy bridal price. After all, we just want tosee her happy!”Zachary’s heart began pounding uneasily when he heard what Michael said. “Stopboasting already, brat!” he hurriedly uttered. “There is no way you could have known what was goingon and came with a gift.”Kingsley smiled. “Did you forget what I just said? The one thing I do not lack isfriends.”He then called Daniel, ignoring Zachary’s sputters.“Bring me five invitation letters to the pre-bid
conference. I want them delivered to the Larson Family home now!”Michael’s heart skipped a beatwhen he heard the words ‘invitation letters’.A thought struck him, stealing his breath away fromhim.“What did you just say?” he asked with a quiver in his voice. “Invitation letters?” “Invitations toColiree Group’s pre-bid conference,” Kingsley calmly replied. “Do you not know of it?”Everyone wasshocked.“Invitation letters from Coliree Group? Is that actually your offer?” Michael’s eyes nearlypopped out of his head.His hands clamped down on the table before him as his wrinkled face flushedso red that it looked as if he had just popped a few blood vessels on his face.Invitation letters fromColiree Group were only ever sent to the most powerful families and organizations in SolarisProvince!As a second-rate family, it was impossible for the Larsons to ever obtain an invitation letter,even if they bankrupted themselves doing so.To Michael’s shock, Kingsley was currently offering themfive invitations.There was an unpleasant look on Zachary’s face when he saw the reaction Kingsley’soffer provoked. “Michael, do not be fooled by his offer. Only a dozen or so families in Cleapolis couldever get their hands on an invitation letter. What makes you think he could get five with just a phonecall?”Hearing that, Michael calmed down.Indeed, most powerful family heads could only ever get theirhands on two or three letters.It was impossible for a man in his twenties to obtain more thanthat!Megan narrowed her scorn-filled eyes. “Mr. Dugray is right. I think he’s lying as well.”“You’ll knowsoon enough if I’m lying. After all, we just need to wait and see if any invitation letters arrive fromColiree Group.”Kingsley glanced at his watch and continued, “According to my calculations, they will behere in five minutes.”“Tsk!” Zachary huffed.“What if you had some scammers send us fake invitationletters? Your friends are basically either criminals or conmen!”“That’s right!” Megan cried out inagreement. “We had never seen a real invitation before. What if you are trying to fool us withcounterfeit invitation letters?”“Enough!” Michael snapped. “I will appraise the invitations myself whenthey arrive.”Zachary reluctantly stopped his protests. Even so, he shot Kingsley a glare.He would waitand see just how Kingsley planned to lie his way out of this situation.Soon, a car could be heardscreeching into the yard.“Old Master Larson, Young Master Asher, there is a man outside who sayshe’s here to deliver some invitation letters,” said a servant who came dashing into the room.“Let himin.”By now, Michael held no expectation or hope that the invitations would be real.He was certain things
would play out exactly as Zachary had guessed—Kingsley would offer him fake invitation letters.Therewas an expectant look on Zachary’s face as he gently blew on his tea.“When your deceit is finallyexposed for what it really is,” he said with a sneer, “I will be personally throwing you into jail.”Just as hesaid that, a man with the grace of a swan sauntered into the room. “Mr. Larson, I have your invitationletters.”Pfft! Zachary spat out his tea when he saw who had walked in. “Y-Young Master Harry…”
