Maxwell narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a faint smile, which was virtually undetectable to others.
Something was changing. Crossing her arms, Greta coldly looked at Edmund and asked, "This is our family gathering. What are you doing here?"
Edmund glanced at Derrick and retorted, "Mr. Derrick invited me. He said that we could exchange our experience to promote our relationship."
Then Edmund flickered a glance at Maxwell with a sarcastic smile.
"Dad?" Greta looked at Derrick with a puzzled expression.
Derrick laughed heartily, trying to relax the atmosphere. "Edmund has just been promoted to be the youngest president of the Star Group. A few days ago, on behalf of the Star Group, he held talks with our company and reached an agreement with our company on a big project. From now on, we should help each other, striving for a successful cooperation."
Greta's pretty face was still dark with rage.
Although Edmund was handsome, Greta did not get a good impression of him, who was one of the countless admirers pursuing Greta.
Their two families were close. Compared to other admirers, Edmund had more chances to interact with her because of their careers.
However, Greta heard a lot of Edmund because two families were close.
Edmund was handsome and promising, so he was extremely dissolute. He slept countless girls, and many of them got pregnant! After that, he abandoned those women. He was notoriously indiscreet about his private life!
How could Greta like such a person? Even though Edmund looked like a gentleman in front of her, Greta still felt him very disgusting.
Even if Greta rejected Edmund, the latter kept pestering her. He even once wanted to get Greta drunk and brought her to a hotel.
If Greta hadn't woken up when Edmund was bathing and taken advantage of the opportunity to escape, Edmund might have raped her!
After that, Edmund employed a few other vile and despicable devices, which Greta was too embarrassed to mention.
"Since everyone is here, hurry up and eat," Derrick said with a smile.
As Greta was picking up the dishes, she saw Maxwell was eating greedily aside, which touched her. Thus, she picked up a steak and put it into Maxwell's bowl.
In shock, Maxwell looked up at Greta.
This was the first time in the past few months that Greta had offered to do it for him.
Maxwell looked at Greta in bewilderment. Looking at him gently, Greta said softly, "Didn't you like steak at home? Hurry up and eat it."
Maxwell was shocked. For the past three months, he cooked for Greta every day. But he had never cooked steak. Why did Greta do this?
Why was his wife's behavior so abnormal?
However, Maxwell didn't have time to think about it. The dishes cooked by the Michelin 3-star chef team was a combination of many countries, making his mouth water.
However, Edmund saw it, his eyes glittering with malice. He clenched his fists tightly under the table and his veins swelled!
He didn't understand. He had made every effort to pursue Greta, but Greta married such a bumpkin in the end!
Greta was simply blind. Was this bumpkin worthy of being her husband? Maxwell was just a househusband. He ate in a rude manner, which was no different from a local ruffian's!
"Greta, have you and your husband been doing well lately?" Edmund asked gently with a smile on his face.
"Of course, my wife dotes on me." Maxwell returned before Greta could speak, wrapping his hand around her slender waist.
Greta instantly trembled, turning to glare at Maxwell!
Damn it! How dare he take advantage of her!
Her soft and tender body tightened. Without hesitation, she stepped on Maxwell's feet under the table!
Maxwell clenched his teeth, failing to expect Greta to be so brutal!
Gritting his teeth, Maxwell hugged Greta more tightly. He could smell a charming fragrance, like the scent of orchid. It was Greta's scent, alluring and pleasant.
"Greta, your poor taste makes me puzzled. Do you have a special preference for househusband who lives off his wife?" Edmund's smile did not fade, but a trace of coldness flashed on his face.
Edmund said bluntly, which clearly meant he was against Maxwell!
"Outsiders have no right to judge who I marry." Greta replied coldly.
