A Crazy One-night Stand novel Chapter 19

Mr. Harry Adams was celebrating his daughter's return from overseas. Luxury cars lined up as guests dressed in their finest entered the hotel to attend the welcoming banquet.  

This was a private banquet. All invited guests were from the upper class of Jameson City. In order to show their respect and to introduce his daughter, who had been studying abroad, Mr. Harry and his daughter personally received the guests at the entrance of the banquet hall. Standing there, they could spot the guests getting out of their cars through the glass window.

Harry introduced the incoming guests to his daughter. "Monica, that person is Mr. Richard Baker and his wife. He is involved in the jewellery business. His daughter is married to the second son of the Moore Group. With the support of Moore Group, his jewellery business had improved by leaps and bounds!"

"Dad, I hate political marriages like this the most," Monica replied in disdain.

Harry patted Monica's hand and smiled knowingly. "I know, don't worry. I won't arrange your marriage. I have no need to exchange my daughter's happiness for financial gain"

Monica snuggled up to Harry. She looked up at her father and smiled. "Of course. The Adams Family has always been the best in Jameson City. We don't need an alliance."

"Adams Family is no longer the best in Jameson City. Scott Group has overtaken us," Harry answered with a laugh. 

"Scott Group?"

Harry beamed widely. "Speaking of which, the president of Scott Group is a promising young man. You will see him soon!"

Monica had no interest in the president of Scott Group. She looked through the glass window and saw two people walking over. "Dad, is that Clara holding onto Walter's arm?"

"Yeah, that's Clara. She's grown up too!"

"Oh my god, I really didn't expect her to be so beautiful! She looked ugly when she was younger!" Monica exclaimed in surprise.

Harry reminded his daughter. "Monica, don't be so direct. You should be careful with your words so that you would not offend others."
