The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 276

"You'd better not have been fooling around outside! If you dare, I'll divorce you and kick you out of my house!" Emily threatened Mason, needing to pin everything on him first to cover up her own actions.

After the reunion, she hadn't slept with Mason. But lately, she indeed felt something was off with her body...

The next day, at noon, Brittany's grandfather, Oliver Cunningham's 80th birthday party, was held at his residence. They weren't a distinguished family, so most of the attendees were relatives, friends, and neighbors.

As the celebration began, Mason promptly presented his gift, a ceramic vase. "Grandpa, wishing you health and longevity! This vase, a 500-year-old antique, is worth a million dollars."

Daniel caught one glimpse and knew it was a fake. But Mason trying to pass off a counterfeit as genuine to Oliver was none of his concern, so he stayed quiet. He was here with Brittany just to fill his stomach and saw no need to stir up any trouble.

Daniel was enjoying his shrimp, trying to avoid any drama, when Emily decided to pick on him. "Country boy, you're Brittany’s boyfriend, aren’t you? Even if you're not officially together yet, surely you shouldn’t come empty-handed to her grandpa's celebration!"

Daniel quickly took out the two bottles of fifty-year-old vodka he had brought and handed them to Oliver. "Happy Birthday! I hope you enjoy these humble bottles of spirits."
