Everyone in the Cunningham family was stunned. It was Leanna Sandal who had personally invited James and Helen? Seeing everyone's expressions, James’ ego was satisfied. He finally got his long lost dignity back through this invitation.
Helen said smugly, "Dad, if I remember correctly, participating in the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party is something that you have always dreamed of. Although you failed to make it happen, we have helped you achieve that dream. You should be very happy, right?”
Eric turned pale with anger. He could not accept that this son, who was chased out of the house, would have such a day! Just like James, he could not reconcile to the fact that Matthew Larson was invited by Leanna Sandel!
James and Helen left happily. It wasn’t long before Eric slumped in the chair and almost lost consciousness. Those standing nearby quickly went to his aid. "Dad, don't believe him. James likes to brag, and we don't know how far it is true. Cloud Nine Cocktail Party is not a joke. Why would Leanna Sandel invite them personally? He is definitely day dreaming!" said Jason.
The others nodded in agreement, not able to accept the fact.
At this moment, Lily Cunningham came over and whispered, "Dad, I-I'm afraid what they said might be true…” Jason got mad and shouted, "What are you talking about? Lily, how can you side them? How is he qualified to attend Cloud Nine Cocktail Party?"
Lily looked embarrassed. "Dad, I met Matthew two days ago."
"H-He and Leanna Sandel seemed to have a good relationship; she even taught Zachary Jackson a lesson because of him…”
"What?!" Everyone in the room exclaimed in unison.
Zachary Jackson was the heir of the Jackson family. Even Eric Cunningham had to be respectful whenever he saw him. Yet, Leanna Sandel had actually warned Zachary, just for Matthew’s sake?
What was going on between them?
Charlie asked anxiously, "Did you recognize the wrong person? Was it really Leanna Sandel and Zachary Jackson?"
Lily nodded. “Yes. I've seen Zachary Jackson before, and I am definitely not mistaken. I don't know Leanna Sandel, but Zachary Jackson must know her, so there is no mistake at all.”
Everyone looked at each other. It seemed that they could not be wrong.
They were also stunned. What was going on between the useless live-in son-in-law and Leanna Sandel? Why did he have connections in such high places?
"What's their relationship?" Charlie couldn't help but ask.
Before Sasha Cunningham, Leanna Sandel was the top beauty in Eastcliff. She was the eldest daughter of the Sandel family—the top family in Eastcliff. Her beauty was incomparable. With her background and appearance, some large families in Bainbridge even had their eye on her. There were several huge families who wanted to marry a Sandel, which spoke for Leanna’s importance. After that, Leanna Sandel single-handedly started the Creative Cloud Group, and was now standing at equal level as the Sandel family. Being a widow, she brought up her own daughter herself. However, countless people still regarded her as their dream woman. Not only the heirs of third-rate families, even some heirs from the top ten families continued to chase after Leanna. A chairman in her own right, and the dream woman of countless people had a very good relationship with Matthew, a useless person? What was that all about? Charlie couldn't accept it at all. He was feeling angry and frustrated.
At this moment, Lily said in a low voice, "I heard that Matthew saved Leanna's daughter. Leanna pampers her daughter to no end, so she declared Matthew her savior!"
Charlie’s eyes widened, "No way. Matthew is just someone who cleans toilets at the hospital! How can he save someone else?"
