Chapter 1064
‘But what can we say? He’s the tycoon of Yaramoor. He’s wealthy enough to wage war on a country without any hesitation. Not to mention that his family is closely connected to Yaramoor’s nobility. So, why would he take a fancy to a woman from our circle?
“Frankly speaking, marrying a princess might not even be on his to-do list.’
Yorrick apologized to them, walked toward Anthony with a wine glass, and proposed a toast.
Anthony was flattered and said with a smile, “Mr. Hathaway, I should be the one who’s proposing a toast here.”
Yorrick responded solemnly, “You’re an elder, and I’m the one who wants to
collaborate with you, so it’s only natural for me to show you some respect.”
Anthony did not say anything more. Since the other party did not care about such trivial matters, he went with the flow and casually accepted his toast.
The director standing beside Anthony asked with a smile, “Mr. Topaz, why didn’t your daughter come with you?”
Anthony replied, “My daughter isn’t very used to such an occasion.”
Another director said flatteringly, “It’s said that your daughter ended up in a coma for 11 years back then due to an accident. The charity works that you’ve insisted on doing over all these years must have moved God Himself since she could regain consciousness.”
Anthony smiled without uttering a single word.
In fact, he could see clearly that everyone had only brought their daughters to such an occasion to find ways to form connections with the powerful and the rich.
He did not want his daughter to attend such occasions only because he did not want to use his daughter as a tool to facilitate his business. She was his only daughter, after all.
When the banquet was over, Anthony realized that he had drunk a little too much, so much that he was on
the verge of not being able to stay upright.
