Chapter 51 Invited The Top Master
"Anthony, long time no see!"
At the corner of the banquet hall, the most distinguished guests for the night —Walt, Stephen, andAllen—were gathered.
Many of the attendees hoped to befriend the three of them tonight.
However, seeing them hiding from the spotlight, they understood that these noble guests didn't want tobe disturbed.
When Anthony joined them, Allen felt a little nervous as he respectfully poured him a glass of wine.Hetried his best to keep himself from showing his unease, but only after seeing Anthony drink the wine heoffered did he manage to breathe a sigh of relief.
Maria had very keen eyes.She would notice any slight change in expression or eye movement.
Hence, Allen's behavior didn't escape her eyes.
In fact, she even saw him glancing at Anthony's legs from time to time.
Besides Allen, the other two young men also appeared to be incredibly accommodating of Anthony.
They were all sitting up straight across from him as if they were trainees in the military, listeningattentively to their commanding officer.
Among them, only Lyndsey looked relaxed.
Although this was her first time meeting Anthony, she wasn't too curious about him as much as shepaid attention to Maria.
"Everyone, this is Maria Jenkins."
Anthony finally broke the uncomfortable silence between them with his casual yet indifferent tone.
"My fiancee."
Ever since he joined them at the table, Walt, Stephen, and Allen had been speculating who the girl wasand couldn't help but marvel at her beautiful face.
If she was only gorgeously dressed up like the other female guests, they could have easily guessedthat they were indeed in a relationship.
However, in comparison to the stunning evening dresses around, Maria appeared very simple.
Even if she was personally pushing the wheelchair for Anthony, it was inevitable that people couldregard her as just his assistant.
"Hello, Miss Jenkins.My name is Walt Cotton.You can just call me Walt."
"A pleasure to meet you, Miss Jenkins.I'm Stephen Morgan.Feel free to call me Stephen."
Although they were very enthusiastic in introducing themselves to Maria, their movements were stillgentle and aristocratic.
The next second, they both pointed at Allen and synchronously uttered, "This man right here is AllenPattison.Just call him Allen."
As they introduced Allen, Maria's gaze shifted towards him.
Seeing this, Allen got a little embarrassed.
With a nervous smile, he greeted, "Nice to meet you, Miss Jenkins.You can call me whatever you'recomfortable with."
Maria felt quite at ease.She could definitely tell that these men genuinely respected her.
But of course, she also realized that it was solely because of their reverence for Anthony.
How could people say that this man was a loser? Looking at Anthony with slightly narrowed eyes,Maria thought that anyone who believed this rumor must be a fool.
"Anthony...I actually placed a job request to Heaven."
Out of nowhere, Allen spoke in a serious tone.
Although the famous organization was mentioned, Maria was not surprised.
After all, it was well known in the country, especially for rich and powerful people.
With Allen's family background, it wasn't much of a shock that they could be one of Heaven's clients.
On the other hand, Anthony didn't say anything and just looked at Allen quietly.
"I specifically stated that I want a top master to take the job.I want it to be either Master M or MasterNight.As long as one of those two can do the investigation...I will definitely replace out which member ofthe Pattison family has colluded with the traitor from the Wilson family to hurt you!"
It was only common that even though the masters and successors of the top clans were generally ingood terms with each other, competition would always exist among them.
Allen was poised to be the successor of the Pattison family in Broome.
But before he could officially take over his family business, he didn't have the final say in variousmatters.
Besides, he had been away from Broome for quite a long time, and his authority and position wasgradually marginalized.
Therefore, back then he had no idea the Pattison family planned to do something against Anthony andthe Wilson family.
Even if he did, he probably wasn't able to prevent the tragedy.
"Allen, oh my god! Did you really place an order, requesting those two top masters to do it? I wonder ifone of them will take it."
Walt was surprised at Allen's initiative to take this matter in his own hands.
Stephen also voiced his sentiments, "I know that your family is dissatisfied with your friendship withAnthony.So, I'm also sure that they are being very strict with your financially.Do you have enoughmoney to pay for the commission of one of those two masters?"
Out of concern, Stephen handed a card to Allen.
"Here, take this."
Understanding the situation Allen was currently in, Walt also took out a card and offered it to Allen.
Looking at this touching scene, Maria couldn't help but subtly purse her lips.She felt a bit embarrassedthat she wasn't taking any jobs from Heaven for some time now.
Since she couldn't accept the request, they could only rely to the other top master there.The questionwas, would Master Night take the job?
