My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1512

Chapter 1512

The gifts kept arriving until late in the afternoon. It was only then that Mr. Riddle Sr. felt better and came downstairs, where he saw the stack of gifts piled in the hallway.

"It seems that our Riddle family is about to regain the glory that it had lost twenty years ago," Mr. Riddle Sr. muttered and sighed.

About ten years ago, Mr. Riddle Sr. had handed the

company down to Damien Riddle, which was the biggest mistake he had ever made. Over the next few years, he had to bury his fourth child and a few other children from his own family whilst witnessing his family’s fall from grace. It was his negligence that had caused the downfall of the family.

"You really are the lucky star of the Riddle family. Ever since you came in, our family has only prospered," he said to Nicole.

"Stop it, grandpa. It's only because of you that our Riddle family could live to witness this day," she replied.

When Mr. Riddle Sr. was still deep in the world of business, he was a figure that was as prominent as Mr. Johnston Sr. It was just that the younger generation had failed to live up to his expectations that everything became awry. However, Nicole's elder brothers would be there with her in the future, and with all of them around, it was almost a certainty that they would not allow the Riddle family to fall from grace once again.

"I'm getting old now, and we've got these people paying you visits. However, you can't just accept these gifts and do nothing. You should go get ready. I'm going to make an announcement. We're having a banquet here tonight at the Riddle's residence to entertain our distinguished guests," Mr. Riddle Sr. said.

"Tonight? Dad, isn't this a little too rushed?" Daniel asked, feeling a little surprised, as the previous banquets hosted by the Riddle family were all prepared half a month in advance, and sometimes, the guests they had invited would not even care to show up despite having made reservations in advance.

"It's not rushed. Right now, these people should be on their toes, so as soon as these invitations have been rolled out, they'll be present here tonight," Mr. Riddle Sr. retorted.

Mr. Riddle Sr. looked at Nicole, his face brimming with admiration. "Now, they would be eager to meet Nicole as soon as possible."
