The Man's Decree novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42 Cut Off Your Allowance

Yoel rushed to Horington Hospital and tossed a suit at Leyton, ordering, “Change and come with me!”

“I’m recuperating, Dad! Where are you bringing me?” Leyton inquired with bemusement etched on his face.

“To a banquet!” Yoel answered.

“I don’t want to go. My arm is broken, and I’m now recuperating. Why should I attend some banquet?”

Leyton instantly lost interest after hearing that.

He had attended quite a number of banquets, and they involved nothing more than feasting and drinking besides singing each other’s praises. Furthermore, he would have to wear a suit that would keep him very much uncomfortable. Hence, he didn’t feel like going.

“Do you know who’s hosting the banquet this time, you b*stard? It’s Mr. Grange! Everyone who’s someone in Horington is attending the banquet! As such, ensure that you make a good impression this time! I’ll be handing the businesses of the Scott family to you in the future, and I don’t want you to run them to the ground!” Yoel snarled, smacking him upside the head.

The instant Leyton heard that Walter was hosting the banquet, he didn’t dare utter a single word of protest anymore. He hastily changed, but he couldn’t manage with a broken arm.

“Where is your girlfriend? Where did she go instead of taking care of you here? Call her over and have her help you out! I want to see you at Glamor Hotel at eleven o’clock later. Don’t be late! I’ve still got something else to do, so until later!”

Yoel left as soon as he had finished speaking.

Glancing at the time, Leyton didn’t dare tarry anymore. He gave Sandy a call and ordered her over right away.

At half-past ten in the morning, the entrance of Glamor Hotel was already cluttered with luxurious cars. All the prominent figures from the political and business circles had arrived early, long before the banquet would begin.

They all greeted each other and exchanged pleasantries before entering the hotel with their invitations in hand, one after another.

However, their accompanying family members could only wait outside the hotel.

Walter only invited the head of each family and the leader of each department to the banquet this time because he wanted to reduce the number of attendees. He was afraid that Jared would be annoyed if there were too many people and it became too noisy.
