Billionaire's Reborn Baby novel Chapter 40

At the Buckley's.

The guests gathered in twos and threes to gossip. Followed by a group of guards in black, Vincent came out of the lounge. He was wearing a black suit. The way he walked indicated that he was powerful. From afar, he looked like the head of a gang.

Jacob served a glass of red wine to apologize. "Mr. Vincent, something unexpected happened just now. I hope it didn't ruin you and your friends' night. Let me propose a toast to you. I am sorry for not being a good host. Please forgive me for that."

Everyone in City Y wanted to curry favor with the Scavos. The Buckleys became rich because of pure luck and they were actually nothing in the business world. They had no power and no status. They only had the money. However, their only advantage was coming to an end because Marquise was squandering their family fortune.

The Buckleys wanted to seize this opportunity to cozy up the Scavos and other powerful people in the city. Although the Britts were not their targets, Elsie was sensible and her eldest brother, Eliot, was quite capable and promising. If Marquise married Elsie, the Buckleys would get strong support.

However, they didn't expect such a thing would happen tonight. Even if Marquise married Elsie, people would exaggerate what shameful things they had done tonight and laughed at them for that.

When Jacob drank the wine, his brows were still furrowed. This banquet was ruined! However, he still had to maintain his smile until all the guests left.

Vincent wore no expression and he said indifferently in a low voice, "Thanks for tonight. It's getting late. I got to go."

"Take care, Mr. Vincent." Jacob sent Vincent to the door. Then he added, "Mr. Vincent, we will be responsible for what happened. We won't let the Britts suffer any losses."

Last time, at the banquet of the Scavo's, Vincent sent Emily home in front of everyone. The news had spread throughout City Y. Although many people did not believe it, the Buckleys believed that where there was smoke, there was a fire.

Last time, after Marquise made such a scene at Elsie's birthday party, Ian ordered Jacob and Marquise to bring gifts to apologize the next day. Because Vincent saw what happened that day.

Jacob's words were only meant to test Vincent's attitude towards the Britts. However, he didn't believe that Vincent's good attitude was because he had taken a fancy to Emily.

Although he didn't know why, he was sure that it was impossible for Vincent to like Emily, for that was just too ridiculous!

Vincent paused slightly, then he turned around and said in a low voice, "Save these words to Maury."

Jacob immediately nodded and said yes.

However, he was confused. What did Mr. Vincent mean? Vincent didn't give him the answer he wanted.

Vincent left. Jaquan and the others also followed his footsteps. "Vincent, wait for us!"

However, they were still late. Vincent's driver was like James Bond. He arrived and opened the car door as soon as Vincent walked to the door. Then he drove away as soon as Vincent got into the car. He was even more accurate than a robot butler. People behind were envious. And single ladies in City Y were discussing how handsome Vincent's leaving was.

Jaquan stared at the leaving car and asked, "What do you think Vincent mean? Is he serious?"

"I think he is." Ferne rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, "I remember that is his first kiss."

Armando covered his mouth and exclaimed, "Heavens! Vincent is such an innocent man!"

"He is not innocent at all! Did you forget what he did in the lounge just now?" Jaquan said.

"That's right." Ferne nodded.

Randy, the dandy who was fanning himself suddenly said, "Have you ever seen Vincent treat other girls like this before?"

Everyone fell silent.

That was right!

"Including Arabella, did you see any woman get close to Vincent?" Randy slowly put away his fan and went downstairs to get in the car.

This was strange. She didn't dare to think too much. She didn't have any time to overthink, either. She just fled the place as soon as possible.

"Will your brother do this to you?"

Vincent's deep voice echoed in her ears once again.

Perhaps Vincent was just trying to show her that he was different from Eliot.

That was right. This was why Vincent kissed her.

Emily thought it through and immediately fell asleep.

The engagement between Elsie and Marquise could never be broken. No one could change that. Elsie and Marquise could have been a good couple in others' eyes. But after what happened that day, everything changed.

"The Britts are worried that their daughter will not be able to get married, so they sent her to Marquise's bed." "The Britt Group is in danger. They have no choice but to sacrifice their daughter to get help from the Buckleys..." "The stepmother held evil intentions towards her stepdaughter, but got her own daughter hurt instead." News like this was all over the entire city. As soon as people type "Britt" or "Buckley" in the search box, such news would instantly pop up.

Elsie stopped going to school and stayed quiet at home for a few days. Perhaps because everything couldn't be changed, she lay in bed in despair every day. It was said that Susan had to feed her to keep her survive.

At the same time, Beverly also fell ill. That night, after she came back with Elsie, she had a big quarrel with Maury. That night, she slept in the guest room and didn't eat anything. The next day, she had a fever because of coldness and hunger.

Elsie and Beverly were sick at the same time, which provided a lot of convenience for Emily. However, the person behind Elsie still didn't make a move, which made Emily a little anxious.

But finally, Emily made progress on her investment plan Sydnee called in the afternoon of the third day.

As soon as the phone got through, Sydnee panted and asked, "Are you available now?"
