Chapter 117 I Won’t Take Your Advice
Cole spread out his hands helplessly and looked at Gerald with a half-smile.
Cole was very pretentious. He had been very pretentious since Gerald could remember.
In the Kenneth family, Cole was the eldest among the third generation of direct descendants. He grew up with nothing but money Since he was the first successor of the Kenneth family, he had been used to being arrogant. He never treated anyone with respect.
Also, Cole was quite capable. He was three years older than Gerald. Gerald entered school at eighteen years old. Meanwhile, Cole was twenty-one years old, and he was already a graduate student in one of the top five schools in the world.
Cole skipped grades since he was a child. He had a perfect academic performance.
Gerald was also a good student when he was a child. In addition, Mason was very capable at that time, so Gerald was valued by the Kenneth family a lot. Gerald was raised to be Cole’s right-hand
man.
Gerald belonged to a branch of the Kenneth family, so he might be allowed to be in charge of some companies, but the Kenneth family would never let him inherit the family’s shares. Gerald was only on their payroll.
Therefore, Cole always felt superior to Gerald ever since they were kids.
Cole was even more arrogant right now. He despised Gerald thoroughly, which could be told from the way he looked at Gerald and his tone.
Gerald looked at Cole, exhaled, walked over, and wanted to open the car door.
“My car is not for someone like you.” Cole stood in front of the car. Then he said indifferently. “They will be waiting for you in Splendor Restaurant. Take a taxi there yourself. I will be waiting. for you at the entrance of Splendor Restaurant. Only my father is generous enough to let you go to such a high-end restaurant.”
After that, he opened the car door and sat in the driver’s seat. He started the car at once and drove
away.
Gerald pulled a long face.
Cole’s father, Holden Kenneth, was the current head of the Kenneth family. Cole’s grandfather had already stepped down.
Gerald had no idea why they summoned him and Mason to a meal.
Without Mason, Gerald would have ignored their invitation already. Yet Mason was already on his way, so, he had to go there as well.
“Fuck me. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have come back at all,” Gerald cursed. He just came back from somewhere near Splendor Restaurant
Gerald grabbed a taxi and went back to Splendor Restaurant.
Soon, the taxi stopped at Splendor Restaurant. There were already a lot of diners inside
Cole was standing at the door in a suit. He was still disdainful when seeing Gerald. He waved his
hand and said, “Let’s get inside.”
They walked into Splendor Restaurant and went to the fifth floor.
Unlike the first floor, which was with a hall and booths, the fifth floor had nothing but individual private rooms. The environment here was much quieter and much better than the first floor
“Do you know anything about Splendor Restaurant?” After arriving at the fifth floor, Cole chuckled. Then he said, “Splendor Restaurant is the best in Sacramento, especially the food served on the fifth floor. It is the most expensive and delicious in Sacramento. I don’t get it Why did dad
my
invite you here? What a waste.
Gerald ignored Cole.
Seeing that Gerald did not speak, Cole sneered. Then he took the lead. Gerald followed him to a private room. Then Cole pushed the door open and said, “Dad, Uncle Stephen, Gerald is here.”
Gerald followed Cole to the door. Then he frowned slightly.
There was a large round table in the room, and there were already a lot of people sitting at it, including Stephen, whom Gerald had been looking for all this time. Stephen looked leisured while holding a glass of wine in his hand, shaking it slightly
In addition, the burly Armand was also inside the room. Beside Armand sat a girl. When Gerald saw
the girl, his whole body could not help but tremble slightly.
