I simply detest him The Old Man announced, “Before the .
end of this month, a banquet will be held and Jeff’s name will be added to the family Registry.” I Even though Arlina was displeased, she couldn’t show her dissatisfaction. The fact that Duane remained silent throughout, offering no indication as to whether or not he agreed with the 0ld Man’s statements, only made her more angry.
of course, Jeff didn’t like attention and with the fact that he’s an illegitimate son, he didn’t like the idea at all.
Father. People will talk if it comes out that we are giving more attention to an… illegitimate son” It was Elias’s mother this time. She seemed Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
dissatisfied with the boy’s casual demeanor as she kept her eyes fixed on Jeff.
“Jeff is not an illegitimate child” The Old Man spoke harshly. “Duane was engaged to his Mother before…” The Old Man swallowed and exhaled, realizing he had said something he should not have.
Since the Old Man had only disclosed to Jeff that his mother and father had dated for a short while, Jeff was equally taken aback. He made no mention of their engagement.
“Jeff is not an illegitimate son. He truly is a member of the Malfoy lineage. We must make this clear to the world” Old Master Malfoy said.
Now, Jeff didn’t have the heart to tell
the old man he wasn’t interested in the banquet. Jeff is well aware of the Old Man’s concern for him.
“1 will get ready for the banquet then,” Jeff said. “I will comply since Grandfather requests it.” His remarks seemed to aggravate Arlina’s mother and Elias’s even more.
To them, Jeff was deliberately ignoring them.
“Don’t worry about anything. Just focus on your upcoming Exam” His Grandfather answered.
Before Jeff left Dazzle Suite, he visited the restroom. As he was washing his hands, someone came in.
“Hey, Kid.” To his surprise, Jeff looked up and saw Elias’s father. “Don’t feel too
pressured by them, okay?” He stated.
Peering inside his pocket, he pulled out a glossy black card. – “Please consider this a gift for passing the entrance exam.” Before Jeff had a chance to respond, the Man had already left after placing the black card in his pocket.
Jeff had no idea what was going on and was completely taken aback.
Did he just receive the popular black card from his Uncle? Jeff was at a loss for what to do. He did not want to give the impression that he loves money, nor did he want to be impolite by turning it down.
Just as he was contemplating, the restroom door was opened and a boy
CRE ae came in.
Seeing the boy, Jeff averted his gaze and put the black card back in his pocket.
“Uncle is nice, isn’t it?” Ethan said. “It is unfortunate that he did not live up to Grandfather’s expectations.” Casting a quick glance at the boy, Jeff wondered if he was speaking to him.
The same boy had treated him so badly when they had first met back in Arty City.
Jeff literally ignored him and was about to leave when Ethan pulled his sleeve.
“What’s wrong?” Jeff asked, his brows raised in a surprise arc.
Ethan looked away as though he had done something wrong. He released Jeff’s sleeve and stammered through his throat. “Err… I’m… I’m…” “You are what?” “I apologize for using such foul language toward you. Being overloaded at the time made me unsure of my I thoughts. I’m sorry” Ethan expressed, avoiding Jeff’s gaze.
Surprised, Jeff didn’t know how to react. He simply said, “Okay.” “You’ve forgiven me?” Ethan asked.
“I guess.” “Thank you then. I will call you brother since you are two years older than me” Ethan declared.

“Tam? Okay.” I Ethan was truly overwhelmed when he came to Arty City that day. He wasn’t in a good mood because his parents were fighting because of Jeff.
Ethan has never witnessed his parents insulting each other in his life. They are always quiet, fulfilling their respective duties.
But ever since it was known that Duane had a son with his first fiancee, there has never been peace in the house.
Upon witnessing Jeff refer to Old Master Malfoy as his grandfather, Ethan appeared to become even more enraged. He ended up saying rude words.
“How did you do it?” As they made their way back to the private room,
Ethan inquired.
“What?” “The College Entrance Examination! You scored full marks. How did you do it?” Ethan asked, eagerness shining in his eyes.
“I just answered the questions I know and that’s all. I suppose I read a lot of books as well,” Jeff retorted.
“I will also write the college entrance examination next year” As they arrived at the door, Ethan spoke.
Arlina’s eyes grew gloomy as she noticed Jeff and Ethan talking. The force of her restraints tightened something inside her.
And before long, the stuffy dinner was over.
“He’s your Cousin?!” A voice cut through the silent billiard room. “What an unbelievable coincidence!” “Don’t get on my nerves, Shane” Elias said, picking up the pool stick. “I am incredibly irritated right now.” “Just cut the boy some slack” Shane replied, leaning against the pool table.
“I would like to meet him though.” Shane and Elias are in the same music band called Ecstasy, a group that consists of four group members. Even before the band was formed, Shane and Elias were the best of friends and were frequently spotted together.
Even though “Ecstasy” is currently on hiatus, their popularity has continued to grow. Each member made the
decision to put their academics first before rejoining the band.
“I’just feel like he’s going to cause trouble. My Mother isn’t happy to see him, and so are my Uncle and his wife” Elias hissed. “I simply detest him.” “Elias, it is not normal to just hate someone. He didn’t even do anything to warrant your hatred and I don’t think that boy cares about…” “Just shut it, okay?!” Elias raved, yanking the pool stick away from his hand.
“You know what, let’s drink out your worries as you’ve suggested. You really need to clear your head” Shane declared, striding towards the entrance.
