Chapter 109 Valentina's Banquet
Noah slyly smiled, "I will keep it secret. Opportunity makes the thief. Anyway, I have made money. I will buy whatever you want to eat tonight."
April and Arielle were no longer in the mood for the facial. They excitedly looked at Noah. April's eyes twinkled like stars when she said, "What are we waiting for? Let's go to have lobster!"
Noah knew she would choose the most expensive food.
"OK! Let's get ready. We'll leave in a minute. Boys, I will disguise you. We must not go out without disguises. Otherwise, people may recognize you."
Their mommy was doing arduous work, so they could not let her worry about them.
Warren and Elijah happily smiled and went back to their rooms to prepare.
Christian handed him a document in Sebastian's study in Sannot Courtyard.
After reading it, Sebastian narrowed his eyes, dangerously looked at him, and coldly said with sarcasm, "You spent 150,000 dollars to buy these three words?"
Christian took a deep breath. He had investigated Nathan's recent movements abroad and bought the information from Walter.
He said, "It's not a bad deal to buy these three words for 150,000 dollars. Nathan's Fragrant Condensed Pill will be launched soon. Its effect is ten times better than that of Fragrant Pill. As soon as the new product is launched, Michael and Timothy will face the crisis of stock plummeting. No matter how much money Madison's parents have, they cannot support her forever."
Hearing him mention Walter, Sebastian thoughtfully said, "Do you know Walter's origin? He is a talent. Ask him if he is willing to join our company."
Christian smiled, "I don't know. I've been dealing with him for half a year. He refused when I asked him to meet me. But he will work for us as long as we pay him money. He collects much information, and I often buy it from him. He sounded childish. So, I guess he is young."
Sebastian's eyes showed admiration when he said, "The younger generation will surpass the old."
He tore the document in his hand into pieces, threw them in the trash can, looked at Christian, and said, "Get ready to go to the banquet!"
"Yes," Christian nodded.
When he went out, he bumped into Eleanor returning from outside. She nodded slightly at him.
The maid closely followed her into her bedroom with a dress. Then, the makeup woman quickly walked over.
Twenty minutes later, Eleanor slowly walked downstairs in an elegant black dress.
Christian would also go to the banquet, so he and Sebastian waited for her in the living room.
When Sebastian saw Eleanor, he felt she was elegant but unreachable.
He glanced at Christian behind him and said, "Let's go." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Then, the three of them got into the Rolls-Royce limousine.
Despite Christian's presence, the atmosphere in the car was still depressing. Eleanor had not said a word since her return. She seemed to have made up her mind to cut ties with Sebastian.
Sebastian's face was highly sullen.
Easton felt his life span was drastically shortened every time he rode in the same car as them.
Everyone kept silent until they reached the hotel.
Sebastian felt sullen, so he looked out the window. Then, he saw two pretty women walking toward the hotel with three children dressed the same. They should be triplets. They wore blue jeans and crew-neck white T-shirts. Because they looked a bit like Elijah, Sebastian couldn't help taking a second look.
He had not found Elijah's residence yet. He must settle this matter as soon as possible. Elijah was his son, so he could not let the boy suffer hardships outside.
When Sebastian heard Eleanor opening the car door and getting out, he withdrew his gaze.
At the same time, Elijah looked back and slowly entered the hotel.
On the 49th floor was a high-end seafood restaurant with all kinds of seafood where the customers could eat whatever they wanted. April liked this kind of restaurant the most.
Eleanor was thinking about something with her head down, so she didn't notice the five people.
The banquet was on the terrace connecting two buildings. It was an open-air banquet surrounded by various green plants exuding a faint fragrance. The lights were brightly lit. And the decorations and arrangements were stylish.
The nobles of the upper class were well-dressed, chatting and laughing. The women were charming. They gathered in small groups and talked in low voices.
When Sebastian entered the venue, he instantly drew everyone's attention. He was always in the limelight wherever he was.
After entering the banquet hall, Easton told Eleanor the Finley family was holding the banquet to welcome Ms. Miles from Gretbert. He had not dared to speak in the car because of the depressing atmosphere.
Eleanor narrowed her eyes. Valentina Miles was a star. She had been a mysterious diva three years ago. She used to be an illegitimate daughter and had been taken back to the Miles family at sixteen. After Mr. Miles's ex-wife passed away, he married Valentina's mother. Then, Valentina became the young lady of the Miles family. She had a heavenly voice, so she had been popular online for several years. Although she had covered her face when singing, she still got tens of millions of followers.
She had not revealed her face until three years ago. After her identity as the young lady of the Miles family had been exposed, she instantly became a diva. Her albums were always best sellers. And her songs had been played more than 100 million times online. After she had gotten rid of her identity as an illegitimate daughter, no one dared to look down on her anymore.
Easton told Eleanor the information as they walked. After hearing these things, she appreciated Valentina.
Seeing Eleanor and Easton chatting and laughing, Sebastian showed a gloomy face. He put his hands on the armrests of the wheelchair. His fingers were slender and pretty. The faint veins on the back of his hands and the luxurious wristwatch set each other off beautifully, making him look nobler. He was mature, steady, and full of male hormones.
Girls looked at him with admiration wherever he passed. But when they saw Eleanor, they felt angry and jealous.
Eleanor had long been accustomed to such gazes. She stopped talking to Easton and calmly followed behind Sebastian.
Sebastian greeted several business partners along the way.
The guests at the main banquet hall were more distinguished. As soon as they went in there, Eleanor saw Hailey and Caroline. And Michael was standing not far away with a beautiful woman by his side.
Easton whispered in Eleanor's ear, "Mrs. Moore, the person standing next to Michael is Valentina."
Eleanor remained silent. She narrowed her eyes and glanced at Michael. No wonder he had suddenly broken up with Caroline. It turned out he was seeking a connection with the Miles family.
Tsk tsk! What a scumbag he was!
Hailey and Caroline showed sullen faces when they saw Eleanor.
Caroline used to be a princess that everyone flattered. But because of Eleanor, she had become a laughingstock. Everyone said she was a simp who had made efforts in vain.
When she saw Valentina and Michael standing together, she understood everything. Michael wanted the Miles family behind Valentina to help him.
Mr. Zachary said with a flattering smile, "Mr. Moore, thank you for coming!"
Sebastian slightly nodded at him.
Mr. Zachary's wife was Valentina's aunt, so he had taken this opportunity to hold a banquet. Everyone who had dealings with the Miles family had come.
Mr. Zachary stepped forward to lead the way, saying, "Mr. Moore, this way, please!"
Nathan blocked their way with a wicked smile when they were about to go.
