The Legendary Man Chapter 19

Sebastian had arrived at the party with his son.

Compared to the Smiths, the Langfords were clearly more important guests as someone promptly hurried over to welcome them before leading them to their seats in the third row.

If one were not worth billions, one would not be qualified to sit in the first three rows at the Blackwood family’s party.

“Mr. Langford!” Margaret called out from afar.

Hearing her voice, Sebastian turned around. His expression immediately darkened when he realized it was Margaret who had greeted him.

Alvin was already clenching his jaw, trying to suppress his rage at the sight of Josephine.

Acting like she had not seen their reactions, Margaret dragged her family over to them. “Mr. Langford, what a coincidence to run into you here!” she said in a shameless manner.

She then tugged at Josephine’s arm and urged, “Josephine, where are your manners? Come on, greet Mr. Langford.”

However, Josephine felt awkward as memories from the previous day’s events were still fresh in her mind. She never expected to run into the Langfords so soon. “Mr. Langford,”

 

“There’s no need to greet me. Why are you here?” Sebastian questioned, his lips drew back in a snarl.

“The Blackwood family extended an invitation to us, of course,” Margaret answered politely.

“Hah! They extended an invitation?” Sebastian laughed. “Who are you for them to extend an invitation? Hugo might have the right to attend the party, but you don’t deserve to be here.”

He did not bother concealing his disdain for Margaret.

Hearing his haughty remark, Margaret paled. “Mr. Langford, what do you mean by that?”

“You know what I mean,” came Sebastian’s curt reply. With a face like a thundercloud, he announced, “Margaret, the Smith family is doomed!”

“Mr. Langford, please tell me what’s going on.” Margaret panicked at the sight of Sebastian’s scowl. / remember how happy he was yesterday when he told me it would be easto solve our family’s crisis. Why is he going back on his word?

“You should ask your beloved daughter that question,” Sebastian answered icily before turning to his son. “Come on, Alvin. Let’s go.”

“Yes, Father!” Alvin responded.

He gave both Margaret and Josephine a hateful look before stalking away.

“Josephine, what happened?” Margaret burst out angrily once they were out of sight. “Did you stir up trouble again?”

“I didn’t do that…” Josephine said as she nibbled on her bottom lip, seemingly seized with a qualm of uneasiness. “It was Jonathan who gave Alvin a beating!”

Her chest heaved angrily, the anger in her eyes replaced by hatred. wish I could rip that b*stard apart! It took me ages before I could establish connections with the Langford family, but that loser rendered my efforts down the drain!

“Stop shouting like a madwoman. Perhaps Jonathan has been denied entry into the Blackwood residence. There’s no use shouting here.” Josephine glared at her mother as she sighed inwardly.

 

I’ve also offended the Langford family! No one will save us now.

I can understand if the general public is unawarof my identity, but the head of the most affluent family in Jadeborough should know.

“Who the f*ck is Jonathan Goldstein? I’ve never heard of that name. You’d better leave nowor I’ll throw you out!” the security guard threatened.

Just today itself, at least dozens of people have tried to sneak into the Blackwood residence on this special occasion, just like this so-calleJonathan Goldstein. There’s no way I’ll fall for your cheap trick. Dream on!
