Chapter 219: Chapter 219

Chapter 219 Did We Allow You to Sit Here?

Gerald looked at Clare in surprise and said, “You reminded me?”

“Humph.” Clare snorted. “I also feel sorry for what happened to you. I think that you are not so bad. In short, you should be careful. I will go first.”

Clare said this and walked upstairs.

After seeing her leave, Ingrid asked, “Do you have a conflict with the Dobbin family? Darian seems to have something to do with my grandfather. They are from the same era.”

Gerald nodded and said, “Yes. It doesn’t matter. They better not provoke me. If they really want to provoke me, huh!”

He smiled, and then the two of them followed Clare up.

Soon, Gerald and Ingrid took the elevator to the entrance of a banquet hall. After Ingrid handed in the invitation letter, they walked into the banquet hall.

In the banquet hall, there were not many people. There were only four tables. In addition, there was a relatively large stage. It seemed that there would be a performance on stage.

After entering the room, Ingrid walked toward an old man.

The old man had white hair, but he was quite strong. He sat there straight.

“Derick,” Ingrid smiled sweetly while coming up to him.

Gerald’s gaze fell on the other two people at the table. One of them was Darrell, and the other was Darian.

Darrell and Darian also noticed Gerald. Their gaze turned sullen.

“Ingrid,” Derick smiled and patted Ingrid’s head. “Your grandfather always avoids me. He has been beaten up and scared by me since he was a child, so it’s normal that he doesn’t dare to see me. Go back and tell your grandfather that I will go to him another day.”

Ingrid smiled slightly, “My grandfather also said that you had been beaten up by him every day when you were a child.”

Beside them, Gerald felt a little amused. He found that the older people were, the more they looked like children.

The old men in Night Watch often discussed this matter. They argued about who was stronger in the past. Sometimes, they would get angry and fight.

“Who is this?” As he spoke, Derick pointed at Gerald and smiled slightly, “Is he your boyfriend?”

Ingrid’s face turned red. “No. He is my friend.”

Gerald hurried forward and bowed, saying, “Hello, Mr. Jackson. I am Ingrid’s friend. I came with her this time to see the world.”

Derick looked at Gerald in surprise.

Beside him, Darrell smiled slightly, “Gerald, you want to see the world. This is Derick’s birthday banquet. You didn’t come empty–

handed, did you?”

Gerald frowned slightly. Ingrid hurriedly said, “Gerald’s gift has been sent by Eddie.”

Eddie nodded and said, “Yes, I have already given it to you when I came up. Mr. Locke, we know the basic rules of etiquette.”

Darrell frowned and did not say anything else.

Beside him, Darian laughed coldly, “Derick, Gerald came to your birthday banquet. I’m afraid it’s not too good. This kid stayed in prison for nine years. After leaving prison, he was ruthless to his family. He directly helped Leandro push the Kenneth family to the verge of collapse.”

The matter of the Kenneth family could be said to have shocked the entire country. It had also caused quite a stir in Washington.

In terms of wealth alone, the Kenneth family was one of the top families in the country. Now that it had fallen, it attracted the attention of many people. They probably wanted to know what was going 1. on.

Derick looked at Gerald in surprise and said, “You are the kid from the Kenneth family.”

Gerald smiled and nodded, “Yes.”

There was nothing to deny.

Darrell sneered, “I was wondering how you knew Abraham. So you’re a stooge by Leandro’s side. Why did Leandro send you to Abraham?”

Gerald frowned. Darrell’s words were too unpleasant to hear.

“I don’t think he is qualified to attend your birthday party.” Darian looked up at Derick.

Derick frowned and looked at Ingrid.

Then he waved his hand and said, “Don’t talk about these things. Ingrid, take your friend over there and sit down. Leana has been waiting for you for a long time. When you came back to Washington, you didn’t go to play with her. She has talked about it several times.”

“I will go now,” Ingrid said with a smile.

When Gerald and Ingrid left, Derick frowned and said, “You two seem to have a lot of resentment towards this kid. In fact, I think what he did was normal. Holden cruelly framed him and his father. It was normal for him to take revenge after coming out of prison.”

Darian snorted, “Humph, Derick, you don’t know. This kid must have practiced martial arts in prison. He’s fierce. Koen was beaten up by him and got more than ten stitches in the hospital. Koen has just recovered.”

Beside him, Darrell also said with an ugly expression, “Chad, my best disciple, was also beaten by him.”

“Oh?” Derick said in surprise. “That’s a little interesting. Let him show it on stage later.”

Meanwhile, Gerald followed Ingrid to a table. At this table, there were mostly girls. When they saw Ingrid coming over, many girls stood up, one of which shocked Gerald.

The girl was very tall, at least 5.6 feet tall. And she had a slim figure, so when she stood among the girls like a giant.

The key point was that this girl was extremely pretty, almost on par with Ingrid. The most important thing was that she had great curves.

“Ingrid, you are finally here,” she smiled slightly and walked up. Then she glanced at Gerald next to Ingrid and asked with a faint smile, “This is your boyfriend?”

Ingrid blushed and said, “Leana, don’t talk nonsense.”

Then Ingrid introduced Gerald and Leana to each other. “This is Leana. She’s Derick’s granddaughter and a top–level Watchman. She’s very awesome! Kerr and my brother don’t dare to provoke Leana. This is Gerald, my friend.”

Gerald looked at Leana in surprise. Being able to reach the top level at this age was indeed very good.

Leana revealed a hint of pride on her face, but when she discovered that Gerald was not too surprised, her eyebrows slightly twitched. She said, “You also practice martial arts?”

“Yes,” Gerald said with a smile.

“Oh,” Leana said. “You can sit at the table next to ours. We are all girls, and I want to have a good talk with Ingrid.”

When she said this, Leana directly hooked her arm around Ingrid’s neck.

Gerald touched his nose and walked towards another table. This table was full of men. Koen also sat there.

The moment Gerald entered the room, Koen noticed Gerald. At this time, Koen was talking to Landen Lester, a man with a buzz cut next to him. After seeing Gerald come over, Koen revealed a smile.

When Gerald pulled out the chair and sat down, Landen gave a faint smile and said, “Did we allow you to sit here?”
