The Man's Decree novel Chapter 263

Chapter 263 Wrong Room

As the door opened, Devin was shocked to see Simon, Benedict, and Benedict’s family inside the room.

In fact, the people in the room were just as surprised when they saw Glen and Devin.

“What are you guys doing here?” Devin queried in astonishment.

“Dad, we’re having a meal here. Why are you here?” Simon was puzzled.

“Mr. Lowe is here to offer Mr. Chance a toast!” Devin answered truthfully.

Upon hearing that, Benedict was stumped. Am I dreaming? Is this really happening? He was trembling slightly as he stood up. “Mr. Lowe, it’d be too big of an honor! I’m afraid I’m not worthy!” Benedict exclaimed excitedly.

With that, he held his glass of wine and walked toward Glen. Devin must’ve put in some good words for me! That’s why Glen is here to offer me a toast!

“Get lost! Mr. Lowe is not here to offer you a toast. He’s here to offer Mr. Chance a toast!” Devin shoved Benedict away because he knew Glen wasn’t there to see him.

Benedict was bewildered. Which other Mr. Chance could he be referring to? Javier? Why would the mayor offer Javier a toast?

 

Benedict didn’t spare Jared a thought considering he was an ex-convict. It’d be beyond illogical for a mayor to offer Jared a toast at that point.

“Mr. Moore, I think it could only be me. There isn’t another Mr. Chance around,” Benedict uttered warily.

Devin took a cursory glance around the room. Indeed, there’s only Benedict and his family here. It can’t be Jared since he’s only an ordinary youngster. He can’t be the person Mr. Lowe came to see!

“Mr. Lowe, did we come to the wrong room? There’s no other Mr. Chance around!” Devin’s tone was extremely respectful.
