Great Wall Hotel Hotel was one of the leading high-end hotels in D city and the most preferred banquet venue by many influential people of the city. Today, the banquet hall on the second floor was all occupied by the head of the Dragon Construction Group for holding a 80-year-old birthday party here.
Donald Solomon, who looked like an idiot, was sitting at a table. The dried fruits and pastries in front of him were almost be eaten up, with peels and debris scattered around in a mess on the ground. Even the waiters in the hotel couldn't bear it anymore, not to mention the guests. Who did this? It was so rude to eat first before the banquet started.
Next to him, a group of men and women dressed in formal attires were whispering and pointing at Donald Solomon.
"I heard that this is the son-in-law of Minister Yerkes?" Someone asked, "This is the first time I've seen him!"
"Yeah, I heard that there was something wrong with his brain. According to the rumor, he seemed to have had an accident when he was a child and his brain was injured." Another person said, "Look, he is drinking the yogurt on the table. Ooh! The yogurt flows out of the his mouth, tut-tut.
"Alas, Minister Yerkes's daughter is so beautiful. How can she marry such a loser?" Another man sighed, "Do you think anyone of us is worse than the loser when it comes to educational background and appearance?"
"All right, enough, someone of the Laird family are showing up, let's go!" Someone said in a low voice, and a group of people quickly moved to the side.
A group of well-dressed men and women walked out of the door. They were also the to-be shareholders of the Dragon Construction Group.
"Evas Yerkes, look at your husband. Does he know any manners?" Xavier Laird glanced at Donald, who was eating, and said loudly, attracting the attention of many people.
"The guests are not seated yet, but he is getting full. Does he really think he is having a meal at home?" Xavier Laird asked, "You can tolerate this idiot at your home, but don't let him come out and make a fool of himself!"
Xavier was the son of Sanford Laird, general manager of the Dragon Construction Group. Sanford was the eldest son of the former president Fernando Laird and was commonly recognized as the inheritor of the Laird family in the future. Therefore, Xavier was the leader in the third generation of the Laird Group.
"Exactly! It is so impertinent. The guests haven't eaten yet, but he has already begun to eat." The group of men and women behind Xavier also said.
"What are you all arguing for?" A middle-aged woman in a cheongsam came over. She was Madeline Laird, mother-in-law of Donald.
"Aunt..." Xavier didn't feel terrified in front of his aunt. "Look at your son-in-law. He is really starving! Today, many guests have come to celebrate my grandmother's birthday. It's disgraced to behave like this."
"It's none of your business. Go away!" Madeline didn't look very happy when she saw Donald stuffing the face over there. She glared at Evas, and the group of busybodies left, leaving Evas behind.
"Take good care of your idiotic husband!" Madeline whispered angrily, "Don't make him embarrass me any more. If it weren't for your dignity, you would have been divorced a long time ago!"
"On my way!" Evas answered. She lifted her dress and sat beside Donald. When this beautiful girl walked up to Donald and sat beside him, many unmarried youth from D City sighed again. It was quite difficult for them to imagine why this beautiful girl marry an idiot?
"Donald, take it slowly. Look, your clothes are stained." Evas took a tissue from the table and cleaned the corner of Donald's mouth gently.
"Ho-Ho-Ho..." Donald turned his head and smirked at Evas. He reached out his hand to grab a piece of pastry and put it close to Evas's mouth. "Eat! Eat!"
Evas was not angry, but smiled faintly. A complex look appeared in her eyes. She opened her small mouth slightly and took a bite.
"Yeah! You've eaten!" Donald clapped his hands and said. The yell made many people on the scene pay attention to him.
"Evas, you really don't feel ashamed? On this occasion, you still have the mood to flirt with your idiotic husband." Xavier came over and said with a sneer.
"They must do it every day. How could they feel ashamed?" Someone said with a sneer, "Fortunately, you're Ms.Yerkes, not Ms. Laird. Otherwise, you would have dishonored our family name."
"Xavier, no one will think that you are a mute even if you don't talk. If you think that we have embarrassed you, get out of here!" Evas's face turned red, and many people looked over with sneers. She knew that these people were all laughing at her for marrying such an idiot who has the mental capacity of a ten-year-old kid.
"Hey, idiot, have you prepared a birthday gift for grandma?" Xavier said with a smile. "Today is the grandma's birthday. Even if you're an idiot, you should know that you should prepare a birthday gift!"
"Of course, I did!" Donald clapped his hands and patted a black cloth bag on the table. "I've already prepared it long time ago!"
"It's good to hear that. When grandma comes later, don't forget to take it out and show it to all of us!" Xavier laughed and said, "Let's go. Don't stand here for too long. I don't want to be infected with low IQ!"
Being a far distance, Donald could still hear them sneering, but he didn't give a sh*t. The corners of his lips curled into a smile, and he continued to eat the light refreshments.
Along with the noises at the entrance, Madam Laird was escorted by others to walk into the banquet hall. The second and third generations of the Laird family all went up to Madam Laird and helped her sit at the head table. Donald and Evas were also among them to greet with their grandma. However, many people did not want to stand close with them, so they were left far behind.
"Grandma, this is the birthday gift I've prepared for you!" Xavier smiled and opened an exquisite mahogany box, in which there was a golden peach.
"Grandma, happy birthday! Wish you good health and longevity!" Xavier said happily.
"Xavier, my good boy!" Madam Laird laughed happily. Following Xavier, a throngs of grandchildren hurriedly took out their gifts and expressed good wishes.
"Grandma, I've also prepared a gift for you!" At this time, Donald shouted with the cloth bag in his arms. After an interim of silence, everyone turned eyes to him.
Xavier, on the other hand, was looking at Donald and his gift with a smile, as if he was waiting to see a good show.
