Everyone turned around and saw the entrance was thronging with people. Then, a flock of them walked
in. The person at the front most had a sturdy physique and an imposing manner.
As soon as he appeared, he stole the limelight. Even those who didn’t know him would be intimidated by
his aura. That was a unique air of a long-time ruler!
He was none other than the King of Eastcliff! An absolute King!
The crowd started to be restless and most of them shuddered in excitement. Many people had only
heard about the First King of Eastcliff, but they had never met him.
Therefore, their encounter today would definitely contribute to their topics of boasting in the future.
At once, Isaac bubbled with joy. He was smoldered with anger earlier when Old Mrs. Graham scolded
him, not to mention that Timothy had ignored him too.
But now, Billy was here and that was the true limelight of the scene. If he could just exchange a few
sentences with Billy, all his previous humiliation would be swept off and everyone would have to look up
to him!
Coincidentally, he had visited Billy twice with his grandfather in the past, so they were well acquainted
with each other. Therefore, Isaac quickly walked up to him under everyone’s gaze.
“Uncle Billy, it has been a long time since we’ve met! I’m truly surprised that you’re attending the Cloud
Nine Cocktail Party. Your presence is the honor of the Ten Greatest Families!
I’ll call my grandfather after this and urge him to come too and have a few drinks with you, Uncle Billy.”
Isaac bowed while speaking, so he didn’t notice that Billy didn’t even stop a second by his side.
When he raised his head, Billy was already beside Matthew. “Mr. Larson, how are you?”
Everyone was utterly shocked again. What was happening? Did they just witness something
unbelievable? Not only did Timothy treat Matthew politely, but now even Billy?
Billy didn’t even give Isaac a quick glance when Isaac addressed him reverently. Yet, the man went over
to Matthew and greeted him? What was happening exactly? What abilities did this live-in son-in-law
have? How could he make the First King of Eastcliff approach him this way?
Even Old Mrs. Graham widened her eyes in disbelief. Timothy’s presence was already surprising, but
Billy’s appearance was even more astounding because he was the real King! What was the big deal of
the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party?
With just one sentence, Billy could effortlessly dismiss the entire event. This prominent figure who stood
above the Ten Greatest Families had absolute control over Eastcliff!
Even in Eastshire, no one had the audacity to disrespect Billy. However, why would such a big shot treat
Matthew so politely?
Not only Old Mrs. Graham had this question, but everyone felt the same way. Isaac was especially
shocked. He could still accept it when Timothy treated Matthew with respect.
But when Billy did that too, he was truly driven to the brink of breaking down! What kind of person had he
messed with?
Leanna’s expression had changed completely. Initially, she thought that Matthew and Sasha were just
common people. However, it turned out that she had totally underestimated them. Old Mrs. Graham,
Timothy and now, Billy!
All of them were more powerful than the one before. With such background, the Ten Greatest Families
would be nothing to them! It was even the honor of the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party that Sasha and
Matthew graced them with their presence!
Meanwhile, Matthew looked calm and just said slowly, “Mr. Newman, Mr. Wayne, I’m sorry. I’m afraid that
I can’t join you for dinner.”
Timothy asked in astonishment, “Why not?”
Old Mrs. Graham snorted angrily. “Because someone is mocking Mr. Larson as a toy boy who lives off
his wife, and his presence will only deteriorate the standard of the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party.”
“What?!” Timothy bellowed in anger. “Who said that? Come forward!”
Billy’s face grew grave as well when he asked coldly, “What standard does the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party
have? Do you feel humiliated by my friends’ presence? What a ridiculously great prestige the Ten
Greatest Families have!”
Everyone on the scene looked at Isaac and Zachary at the same time. At that moment, the young men
from the Ten Greatest Families were trembling in fear. None of them had expected that things would turn
out this way.
