Chapter 461
“Wait a second. He’s going there in the morning? He’s having lunch and dinner with them? And he’s staying overnight too? Is he planning to be at the Shanahans the entire day tomorrow?”
Everyone gasped after hearing that.
“Damn, the Shanahans are lucky! I didn’t think he’d plan to visit them!” Jada was so angry that she clenched her fists tightly.
“This is unimaginable! Even though Mister Valerian visited the Ballards first, it was already noon by the time he came. Wouldn’t he be spending more time with the Shanahans than with the Ballards?”
“Yeah, he said he’ll be there in the morning, so it’s probably going to be after breakfast. Why would he choose the Shanahans, though?” someone asked in surprise.
“Thank you, Mister Valerian! We shall await your esteemed presence tomorrow!” Catherine stood up, cupped her hands respectfully toward Valerian, and said in a trembling voice.
Zachariah paused for a moment before continuing, “As for the day after tomorrow, Mister Valerian will visit the Longhorns for lunch at noon before leaving Brookbourn by plane later in the evening!”
Upon hearing that, Henry, Gideon, and the rest of the Longhorns had a look of delight on their faces. They were lucky that Valerian chose to visit the Longhorns. Meanwhile, the Kubricks and Zelankos, who were also first-tier families, had a bit of displeasure on their faces and were evidently somewhat disappointed not to receive such an opportunity.
The rest of the families whose invitations were accepted but had no chance of being selected could only sigh to themselves and lament their bad luck.

lack of time and our busy schedule. Although I have accepted the invitations of a few families, it is unfortunate that I cannot visit every single one. However, I have felt the enthusiasm of Brookbourn’s people, and I hope to have the opportunity to visit you again in the future!”
After hearing that, everyone stood up and gave him a round of applause.
After all, Valerian-an existence who stood at heights that they could never hope to reach. did not put on airs and even made such remarks that imparted a sense of cordiality between himself and them.
“Cheers, everyone!” Valerian raised his wine glass, and everyone else followed suit too. After lunch, some of the guests left after saying their goodbyes, while others continued to chat with. those who were still there.
