Guardian-In-Law by Five Generals novel Chapter 716

As the banquet began, many came to toast and flatter Hector.

Their conversation always led to Darcy without exception.

Hector would usually have a little drink now and then, watching the amount he drank.

However, he clinked glasses with all the guests today.

Later when nobody drank with him, he started pouring wine into his own glass.

While shedding tears, he downed his drink.

“What’s the matter with you, Hector? Don’t scare me.”

Agnes pulled him back.

“And he who had so loved her was not there, to trouble with bad hopes, or evil wishes…” Hector rasped, his tone miserable.

The guests near Hector thought he was acting strange.

Darcy’s family, on the other hand, knew what was going on.

Hudson bossed Master Quint and the rest of the family around.

They were kicked out of the venue in front of everybody.

The former Quints were utterly humiliated.

Even though Hector resented Master Quint, his father, for turning his back on him, sadness washed over him.

The whole family felt down.

The sumptuous food tasted like nothing.

Darcy had always been the former Quints’ punching bag. Yet, she was not pleased to see what the former Quints had become.

She was upset.

“The unfortunate often have their share of blame,” Kaze said indifferently.

Kaze could help the former Quints rise to social ranks easily.

He had given them many chances. Alas, they let the opportunities slip.

The former Quints lost everything, forsake their family name, and faced public condemnation.

They thought they had become part of the mega-rich.

All they became were the lapdogs of the mega-rich.

They had no one to blame but themselves.

The party came to an end.

After saying goodbye to Hudson, Darcy and her family left Dynasty Hotel.

Kaze promised to go shopping with Brenda, so he parted ways with Darcy’s family at the hotel entrance.

Since Golden Edge was a walking distance from Dynasty Hotel, Kaze, Brenda, and Winnie took a stroll there.
