Regaining Their Pride
Donald couldn’t help but lean over to James and whisper, “Y-You guys know Mr. Harrison?”
James was going crazy with joy, and he had a triumphant look on his face. “Of course!”
Shock was written all over Donald’s face, because all of them knew Joseph’s identity.
Even Joseph was here, which meant that this house must belong to Matthew!
However, before Joseph entered, a sports car arrived at the courtyard.
Leanna, who was wearing a short knee-length skirt, got out of the car with her hair waving behind her,
making her look like a queen.
Not many people knew her, but Yvette recognized her at a glance.
“I-Is that Leanna?”
Everyone was astonished, and Donald’s expression changed sharply. “Which Leanna?”
Yvette answered, “Leanna from Creative Cloud Group! I… I was fortunate enough to meet her before. W-
Why did she come here…”
The crowd suddenly exclaimed, “Oh, my God. She’s Leanna?”
“She’s the richest woman in Eastcliff!”
“She’s so beautiful! She’s definitely Leanna!”
“What’s she doing here?”
Amidst everyone’s exclamations, Leanna took two bottles of wine out of the car and called out before
entering, “Sasha! Sasha, I’ve come to have a drink with you! My lunch is on you!”
Everyone looked at each other. Leanna’s actually talking to Sasha like that. How close are they?
Yvette was even more shocked than the rest. They didn’t know Leanna, but she knew best.
Even the Sandels, who were part of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff, couldn’t see this side of
Leanna.
Leanna really treats Sasha as her closest friend! But, what the hell is going on? How could Sasha and
Matthew know so many famous people?
Sasha went out to greet them.
Leanna threw her arms around Sasha’s shoulders, as if they had been best friends for a long time.
At this moment, Yvette could clearly see the wine bottle in her hand.
“It’s a Romanee Conti! Those two bottles of wine are estimated to be worth at least a million!”
Those people around her were dumbfounded. Is this meal worth more than a million?
As Matthew ushered them into the living room, James’ friends were at a loss.
Faced with all those big names, they were all silent and dared not say a word.
After sitting for a while, Matthew got up and said, “Dad, Mom, Sirs, Madams, you’ve come all the way
here, so just stay and eat here today.”
James and Helen were so happy that they were grinning from ear to ear. This time, they were truly going
to get back their pride.
“We won’t stay for lunch. There are still some friends of mine waiting outside, so it won’t be very
convenient to eat here,” James said while giving a dismissive wave of his hand.
Matthew was surprised. “Why didn’t they come in?”
James was slightly embarrassed. “Uh, the security guard said that if too many people came in, it might
disturb the residents here…”
Matthew immediately said, “It’s okay, Dad. I’ll call the security guard to let them in. They’ve come all the
way here, so we should at least let them come in and have a seat, right?”
James was overjoyed. “I-Is that really okay?”
Smiling, Matthew nodded. He was the most distinguished homeowner here, so if he personally ordered
it, it must not be a problem.
After he made a phone call, the security guard immediately let them in.
More than a hundred people entered Lakeside Garden.
These people were stopped before they could enter, so they were all disappointed, thinking that they
wouldn’t be able to visit Lakeside Garden.
Unexpectedly, they got to go in, which made them bubble with excitement.
Knowing that Matthew had arranged it, all of them praised him.
One of James’ old friends gave him a thumbs up. “James, oh, James. You’ve really gotten a good son-in-
law!”
James was extremely pleased to hear this. When he and Helen looked at each other, they both felt
rather content.
The more they looked at Matthew, the more pleasing they found him to be.
