I Am the Ruler of All (Kingsley) novel Chapter 541

Just after mocking Elijah, those people immediately gave Brandon a thumbs-up.

"Brandon, way to go! We're so jealous of you! Your son is a lieutenant now."

Saying that, everyone surrounded Brandon and left Elijah standing on the side alone.

It was true that they were only able to attend the banquet today because of Elijah's invitation.

Yet, they ditched him because it was clear from Clarence's attitude that Elijah had no say in the Wynn Family.

Those middle-aged people were very pragmatic.

They would rather please Brandon, whose son was a lieutenant, than flatter Elijah, who had no real power.

After all, in the Empire of Qustia, the social status of military personnel was extremely high.

When Elijah saw that, his face turned pale, and he wished he could just find a hole to hide in.

Ysabel looked even more unhappy. She glared at Reene and spoke through her gritted teeth.

"Look at this! If you can't find a good man, your father and I will have to endure this kind of ridicule forever!"

Reene sighed.

"Mom, I'm the president of both Neveah and Clark Corporation. I've become successful already. Why would you still insist that I find a man?"

"What do you know?! Women have no status in this society!" retorted Ysabel coldly.

"Besides, without a man to rely on, how long do you think you can control Clark Corporation?

"Once Nicholas and his family make a move, you'll have to hand the company over to Clarence. You'll be at the mercy of others unless you can find a backer like Young Master Andrew!"

Just then, Mia walked over with Nicholas and mocked, "Ah, Aunt Ysabel, did I just hear you mention my husband's name?"

Mia gave Reene a smug look.

Being constantly insulted by Mia in front of everyone, even Reene, who had great tolerance, couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

For the first time, she hoped that Kingsley would quickly teach the Wynns a harsh lesson.

Thinking of Kingsley, she couldn't help but recall the scene when she first came to Ramada Hotel for the blind date with Andrew.

Back then, as they stared at the towering 66-story building, Kingsley had said to her, "It's just an average restaurant! Reene, I can make a reservation for you whenever you want to dine on the 66th floor!"

With that in mind, Reene blurted out to Mia.

"What's so impressive about holding a banquet on the 60th floor? If I want to, I can do it anytime!"

As soon as her remark came out, the surroundings went silent.

The onlookers were giving Reene looks that were filled with mockery, disdain, and ridicule.
