Since Wallece had been mixing well, he kept his attitude particularly high profile during the Soo family's New Year's Eve dinner party which he had been invited to upon returning from abroad.
As soon as he returned, he asked Lauren out, trying to show himself off. At the same time, he kept hinting on how people from other countries were open-minded, how much he missed Lauren, and that he wished to kept their relationship going.
But Lauren was not a fool. When she heard this, she naturally knew Wallece’s intention. He just wanted to play around with her. Lauren definitely would not agree to it. Hence, she found an excuse to reject Wallece's invitation.
She did not expect to run into him at the mall that day, at such a bad time. It was why the incident happened.
Upon hearing this, Fade couldn't help but shake his head and sighed. The Soo family was a great family and had a high status. However, there seemed to be no potential in the younger generation of the family.
Harper was a spoiled rich kid, so there was not much to say about him. An heir like Wallece, who was not bad at mixing around, also had the same kind of attitude. So he was definitely unfit for the position.
The only one who was fit for the position was young master, Zarriah. He was not bad in all aspects, but he could be too rigid and timid. When he was faced with people with great power, he would try to be in their favor. When he encountered those with little power, he would disregard them. He only favored benefits that he would gain and could not make his own decisions.
This kind of person might be able to protect the Soo family' s fortune. But if they wished to advance further, it was practically impossible.
When Fade thought about this, he secretly planned to come up with a backup plan for Momo. She had to at least have a plan in case she couldn't survive in the Soo family.
After the meal with Lauren, Fade left for home.
The next morning, Momo personally drove over to Fade's house to pick him up.
Fade got in the car wearing the outfit from the previous day. When Momo saw him, her eyes suddenly lit up and asked, "Fade, why are you looking handsome today?"
Fade glanced at the little girl with a smile and said, "What are you talking about? Are you saying that I was not handsome before?"
"Of course not. You used to be handsome, but now you are more handsome." The little girl knew how to sweet talk.
"Alright, don't flatter me. Just concentrate on driving!" Fade laughed.
"Yes, Fade!" Momo laughed and then drove off.
Along the way, she explained the details about her family to Fade. She also said that her Grandfather seemed to have something to announce at the dinner party.
They soon arrived at the Soo family's house.
After Fade got out of the car, he held Momo's arm and they walked into the house together with a smile.
The servants and relatives of the Soo family showed respect to Fade. The situation was completely different from the previous time when he was there.
After all, everyone in the Soo family now knew that Fade was Master Chen.
When Momo and Fade stepped into the lively living room, at first glance, they saw a lot of people chatting happily and laughing. There even were faces that Fade did not recognize. They looked like relatives of the Soo family who came back from other countries.
Fade and Momo walked in intimately, which caught the attention of the relatives. They all looked over curiously.
Momo was about to introduce Fade.
Someone called out in a surprised voice at that moment, "Pretty boy, why are you here?"
Suddenly, Fade's attention was side-tracked. After looking around, he realized that it was Wallece, who was beaten up by him the previous day.
Wallece added further, "When I saw this guy in the mall yesterday, he and Lauren were flirting with each other and they were intimate. They seemed to be more than friends."
When Zegger heard this, his face changed and said to Ernest, "Momo is still young, and it's very easy for her to be cheated on. As a father, you can' t ignore this! I think it's better to throw this scum out of our Soo family."
Wallece, who was next to him, said fiercely, "We not only have to throw him out, we also have to teach him a good lesson."
After the father and son duo finished, they glared fiercely at Fade. They looked proud as if they had already defeated Fade.
However, when Momo and Ernest heard what they said, there was no sign of anger on their faces, which was very unexpected. Instead, they smiled and said, "We believe in Fade. He won't do such a thing."
"Ernest, Momo, why are you..." Zegger frowned, puzzled at their response.
At that moment, Somoset, Lyla and Zarriah quickly interrupted by pulling Zegger and Wallece aside and winked at them.
"Zegger, Wallece, stop talking."
"Otherwise, you will be in big trouble if you provoke Fade."
When Zegger heard what they said, he looked at them with surprise.
He really didn't understand why the Soo family was so protective over Fade despite the fact that he was so despicable. Even Somoset and Lyla, who used to have a bad relationship with Ernest, were on his side, "Why are you guys...What's so great about Fade? Why are you guys protecting him like this?"
Wallece was also confused and said, "That pretty boy is a playboy and a liar! We can't let him trick the Soo family. We have to teach him a lesson."
