Lord Death Is Now Back Home by Chris novel Chapter 9

Chapter 9 Do You Know Me?

Chris was speechless. Nobody believed the truth. He was so honest, but they didn't believe it.

At this moment, a man and a woman came in.

The man was tall and handsome.

The woman looked like a noble lady.

"Loretta and Alfred are here!"

Loretta Harker was Laurence's daughter and Esther's cousin.

Alfred Harker was Loretta's husband. He was the son of the Harker family.

The Harker family was also a second-class family, just like the Jeffersons. It was much more powerful than the Collins family.

All the members of the Collins family stood up. Even Michael Collins put on a smiling face.

His attitude towards Alfred was so different from that towards Chris.

Laurence smiled at them, "Loretta! Alfred! Come over."

While he spoke, he pointed at Chris and said, "Let me introduce him. Chris Shelby, the famous son-in-law of the Jefferson family. He said that he is some Master. Even the Commander of the East Coast has to bow to him. You know a lot. Can you tell me what a Master is?"

Loretta laughed, "Dad, are you kidding me? Commander is a big shot in East Coast. I've even never heard of some Master."

"Hey, Esther, my good cousin. You've waited for your man for five years, but it seems now, he's a madman."

Esther felt ashamed. She didn't even want to stay here.

But Chris didn't take it seriously.

He didn't want to care what these ants said.

Alfred held an exquisite gift box. He gave it to Michael and said, "Grandpa, this is my gift for you. Hope you'll like it."

After saying that, Alfred opened the box. There was a set of pure-gold prayer beads.

"This is..."

Michael opened his eyes wide as he saw the beads.

Loretta smiled happily, "Grandpa, Alfred spent one million dollars buying this for you."

The members of the Collins family all exclaimed in surprise.

One million dollars!

Michael laughed happily, "Alfred, I like this gift very much."

Alfred smiled, "I'm glad you like it."

Loretta turned to ask Chris, "Ergh, Master? What gift did you prepare for grandpa? Show it to us!"

Loretta came over and opened Chris's gift box. There was a set of jade beads.

"That must be fake. How dare you give Grandpa such trash?"

After saying that, Loretta threw the box into the trashcan.

Esther got angry as she saw this.

She and Chris spent so much time choosing the gift, but Loretta just threw it into the trashcan.

She felt sad and wanted to cry.

Alfred didn't care about them. He asked Michael, "Grandpa, do you know about the big shot coming to East Coast today? The airport has been locked down this morning. I heard there were tens of warplanes and three thousand soldiers."
