Quinn Mansion was filled with guests and full of laughter.

But instead the atmosphere within the hall within was very quiet.

Old master Quinn was looking closely at the stanza given to him as one of his birthday gifts, he was furious.

Kevin and the rest of the Quinn family were from the third generation, and all of them were filled with dissatisfaction and anger.

There were also some middle-aged family members within the Quinn family, they were moody and their eyes filled with anger.

"Grandfather, who's Jack's bastard? The so-called Hughes family heir? And that Yael, does he really think he has someone so strong backing him up?"

Kevin was the first to speak, he had a fiery and excited personality and gestured with his hands as he said, "As long as you say that word then I will immediately go and drive them out of the Quinn Mansion right now."

"Kevin, shut!"

A middle-aged man shouted immediately.

He is the father of Kevin, Morrison Quinn, and is the eldest son of the second generation Quinn family.

"Dad, why should I shut up? The gift that Jael gave to grandfather was clearly a curse of death. And how could the Quinn family give up on this?" Kevin rebuked angrily.

The slap!

Morrison slapped Kevin in the face and said, "Our elders are here, what right do you have to say these things?"

Kevin felt very upset being slapped, but in the end he lowered his head and retreated.

"Sighs."

Old master Quinn sighed and glanced at Kevin helplessly.

The third generation of the Quinn family members, among the people who were part of the main bloodline, for him there was nothing worth seeing.

Although he strictly followed the blood rule first, he knew he had to face reality.

All the members of the third generation family in the main bloodline, were all extremely proud and arrogant, yet their temperaments and abilities were all rather mediocre, they were insignificant.

As long as there was a person like Jael, no, as long as there was a person like Amelia, then old master Quinn would be able to enjoy his life to the fullest.

"Dad, they're here for ..."

Morrison said to old master Quinn in a deep voice.

"Closed!"

old disciple Quinn widened as he loudly shouted interjecting Morrison.

Kevin and the others were puzzled by what had happened.

In fact, this was something that the Quinn and Madam Hughes families had worked together to plan for and in the Quinn family only a few members knew of this.

Yet no one in the third generation of family members knew.

After the loud cry of old master Quinn, everyone in the inner hall fell silent.

Everyone held their breaths while shooting looked at old master Quinn with somewhat worry from time to time.

After a while.

old master Quinn suddenly sighed and with a somewhat reluctant smile said, "You are considered a guest here, other than that you are the heir to the Hughes family, so I want to greet you personally."

What's?!

Sending the temple and causing trouble at the banquet, was this not enough to drive them away? And he wants to greet her personally?

Everyone was shocked, stunned on the spot.

When they have returned to their senses.

old master Quinn had left the inner hall.

"Brother, what do you want me to do?"

"Although the Quinn family in X City cannot be compared to the Hughes family, yet as some of the richest in X City, we will not tolerate being provoked and humiliated by the Hughes family!"

"Sending the stanzas that would only be sent at the funeral for his birthday party, a curse that was obvious to old master Quinn. How could he accept this?"

...

Morrison looked sullen as he suddenly shouted loudly, "Everyone shut up, and listen to the old master!"

Meanwhile as he took a step forward, Morrison then gave Kevin instructions in a low voice, "Kevin, gather a dozen bodyguards and make them stand guard outside the main hall. If something unexpected happens at a birthday party, listen to the sound of broken glass to take action."

'Guests' are here with bad intentions.

Old master Quinn planned to greet him politely, yet had to be vigilant.

What's more, Morrison knows the whole story well, so is somewhat frightened by Jack and Yael's visit.

The incident about the Burton family in the capital is a lesson to be learned.

While old master Quinn was walking into the front hall with his many descendants.

He caught the attention of the people on the street and greeted them as he passed by.

Among the guests were giants and tycoons big and strong in each of their respective industries, and some of them had strong authority.

The Quinn family is located inside X City, which indicates that they are at the top of the pyramid.

In this position they can ignore everyone, and also make everyone look back at them.

Old master Quinn's face was filled with smiles as he greeted everyone one by one.

Soon he starts looking for Jack and his friends he sees sitting in a corner.

At the corner table, Jack and Yael sit down.

Since they were all rich and powerful people in X City, some of them knew about Jael and besides this towering figure of Brent was quite oppressive.

As a result, Jack and his company are the only people at this table.

Jack looked as indifferent as ever, Yael looked cynical and uncaring, and Brent looked calm, while Joe smiled.

But instead Amelia who was sitting next to Jael lowered her head with her palms covered in sweat.

Since two years ago, he had lost the right to be involved in any affairs related to the Quinn family.

So since this was a birthday party for the elders of the family, he would only show his respect and then leave directly after sending the gifts..

He had a weak personality, never complaining, therefore he never objected to the way he was treated.

But today is Old Master Quinn's birthday banquet and coming here with Jack and Yael who are clearly violating the rules of the Quinn family.

However he decided to stay, one of the reasons was because he was with Yael, and the second reason was because he did not want to leave, because as a member of the Quinn family, he wanted to stay.

Suddenly.

There was a commotion nearby.

Amelia soon realized that there was a crowd approaching them.

His eyes flickered and he could not help but become even more nervous so he lowered his head and did not dare to look up.

"Mr Hughes, we're here honored by your presence, I'm sorry for not greeting you earlier."

A warm heart laugh suddenly sounded.

Amelia's body trembled, her face full of shock.

This is... old master Quinn's voice?

Then a second later old master Quinn spoke again, "Amelia, Jael."

Amelia struggled hard in her heart, and slowly raised her head.

Her familiar face was already visible, and although she was no longer as solemn and dignified as before, she instead had a gentle smile on her face.

"Grandfather..."

Amelia could not believe it as this was the first time she had seen the smile on old master Quinn's face in two years.

However Yael leaned against the chair rather sluggishly, had a toothpick between his teeth, a face full of contempt and did not respond to old master Quinn.

Meanwhile at the same time.

The people around them were filled with astonishment.

There was a lot of discussion between them.

"Yes God! What did we just see? When did the Quinn family house rules change?"

"The person who killed his father had actually attended the banquet, but how could old master Quinn remain calm and courteous?"

"Don't look at the person sitting next to Yael, but if I remember correctly then he should be one of the heirs to the Hughes family, Jack!"

The explosion!

One of the guests here who had seen Jack before said this.

However what he said finally made the entire front hall suddenly quiet.

In fact, there were hundreds of tables here for the birthday party; yet everyone seated in the front hall was the most respectable person and close to old master Quinn.

Among the people sitting in the front hall, many of them clearly understood the importance of the successor to the Hughes family.

"Old Master Quinn, are you satisfied with the gift you received?"

Jack laughed somewhat jokingly, his face full of arrogance.

What he had just said caused everyone's eyebrows to tighten.

Even if you don't know what a birthday gift is, from what Jack says, it's clear to everyone that it's a complicated matter!

Morrison and the others were furious.

It was only when the veins on old master Quinn's head began to throb, that he suppressed his anger and instead faked a smile and clenched his hands together.

"Satisfied, a gift from Master Hughes, how can I not be satisfied? Please drink some wine and enjoy my birthday banquet."

He had everyone's eyes on him as he said this.

He took the Maotai wine from the table and personally poured a full glass for Jack.

His words and actions really made him seem humble.

The people in the front hall were all still dumbfounded.

Cannon Quinn and the richest men in X City would not even act so lowly towards the head of the Hughes family.

"Three glasses."

Jack raised his eyebrows, took the wine glass that was in front of Yael and Amelia and placed it in front of him as he said, "Pour the wine into this glass as well!"

Old master Quinn's pupils widened, feeling unsure.

But in the end he smiled and poured two more glasses.

Jack did not wait for him to put down his wine glass and instead slowed his stand while holding his own wine glass.

"First glass, to heaven!"

Old master Quinn was astonished, the veins at the corner of his eyes were very clear.

All the members of the Quinn family were even more furious, full of anger.

Everyone in the front hall had their pupils dilated rapidly, this ...

With everyone's eyes fixed on him, the unconcerned Jack sprinkled a few drops of wine into the air and then immediately finished his wine glass at once.

As soon as he finished his first glass, he picked up the second glass.

"Second drink, to earth!"

Then with an arrogant expression on his face, he sprinkled a few drops of wine onto the floor, and once again finished his glass.

In the room there was no sound.

The atmosphere was tense and filled with a strong sense of confrontation.

Then when Jack raised the third glass of wine.

He did not attempt to hide his killing intent, and at this moment, everyone could feel a chill emanating from his body.

The corner of his mouth curved slowly as he stared coldly at old master Quinn.

"This third glass, I lift up in honor of my mother who is in heaven and to old master Quinn who I hope will have external happiness after her death!"

The sound of wine falling on the floor was heard.

The sparkling and translucent wine was poured out of the glass and onto the floor.

Everyone in the front hall was gasping for air by what they saw.

All the guests were shocked, a chill crawled their backs.
