Chapter 256: Surprise at the Birthday Banquet
Ben Richter’s youngest son wasn’t turning a year old, so suddenly making a big deal out of it wouldn’t make anyone pay more attention.
I tapped my fingers on the desktop with my chin propped up, pondering what Ben Richter had in mind.
He sent the invitation to me, and the Yao family would have received it, so could it be that Ben Richter was fighting with Walker Richter?
I recalled Walker Richter’s earlier comment that there was someone behind Ben Richter, and it was most likely the Yao family.
Yao Bin thought that Walker Richter was his son, he must be helping Walker Richter, Yao Mu Rong and Walker Richter are blood brothers, and would not go to help Ben Richter, so who else in the Yao family could be Ben Richter’s backer, Yao Mu Bai?
I shook my head, it’s also unlikely.
“Alva, want to go?” Jane Hasis asked me.
The invitation named me to go.
I touched my legs, which were already feeling, and said hesitantly, “Go.”
The birthday party was on Saturday night, tomorrow night.
As soon as she heard that I was going, Jane Hasis went to get the clothes for the party.
I had to wear a long dress because of my leg problems.
Saturday night at eight o’clock.
I went to the Richter family with Jane Hasis.
The birthday party was held in the backyard lawn of the Richter family. It was grand and lively, with a lot of mingling, a fountain of music, the famous pianist Feuer playing, and Ben Richter’s eldest daughter, Miley, playing a song like a princess.
Jane Hasis looked a little mesmerized and fell into reminiscence, “Bella was in the spotlight like this when she was little, and she played a lot of tunes, and every time she learned one she would play it for me.”
Bella Hill was not talented, but she had a half-decent level of talent, after all, Jane Hasis spent a lot of money to cultivate.
Miley finished playing a song, elegant and generous bow to the guests to thank, ushered in a lot of applause, are praising Ben Richter has a good daughter, grow up I do not know to be cheap who family boy.
Mrs. Knight was not present yet, and there was no Walker Richter, only Ben Richter and Charles Richter were greeting the guests, and Joyce Parvis was not there either.
This birthday party is a bit strange.
I found a corner seat and sat down, took some food and leisurely ate the cake and drank the juice.
Just then, the Yao family came.
The Yao family came with Yao Bin and Yao Murong, and Ben Richter personally went up to greet them.
Charles Richter also welcomed them with a smile on his face. Fin Wilson, dressed in a dark green cheongsam, came to Charles Richter’s side, and the three of them talked and laughed, making the scene look a bit funny.
I admire Fin Wilson for being able to maneuver between the two men. I wonder if Charles Richter knows that Yao Bin treats Walker Richter as his son, and if he knows what happened between Fin Wilson and Yao Bin.
With Fin Wilson and Charles Richter taking care of him, Ben Richter took care of the other guests.
When the guests had almost arrived, I suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at me, subconsciously I looked at the second floor of the Richter family villa, the room where Walker Richter was staying was lit up.
I frowned, Jane Hasis came over, “Alva, you sit here for a while, I’ll go to the restroom.”
Looking at the person who came in the doorway, it was Frank Hill’s mother who was with Hill Yi, so it’s no wonder Jane Hasis was avoiding it.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Good.” I nodded.
Jane Hasis walked in the other direction with her back turned, this was for fear of an awkward meeting.
Frank Hill saw me and just glanced at me lightly before going off to chat with his acquaintances.
This birthday party is really lively, everyone who should come is here.
I glanced in Ben Richter’s direction, what the hell was he thinking?
Ben Richter noticed my gaze, looked back over, the corner of his mouth raised with a smile, raised the wine glass in his hand, and toasted with me in the air.
I did not drink, just leaned against the back of the chair, eyes fixedly looking at Ben Richter, he took a sip of wine in the cup, a servant walked towards him, I do not know what to say, Ben Richter’s face changed, immediately put down the glass of wine, hurriedly went upstairs.
I sat up straight, my mind curious, what happened?
Curiosity killed the cat, I did not go over to see.
Once Ben Richter left, only Charles Richter was greeting the guests.
Today is Ben Richter’s youngest son’s birthday party, but so far have not seen the child, to say, I have never seen Ben Richter’s son, I am afraid that the outside world has not seen anyone.
Ben Richter’s youngest son was a sick child at birth, hanging on by a thread of medicine, and it’s a miracle that he’s alive today.
“Is there anyone here?”
Yao Murong walked over.
“There is.”
I didn’t want Yao Murong to sit down, the words just fell, he didn’t have any eyesight at all, he directly sat down and asked me, “Why did you come? Such a banquet, I thought you wouldn’t come.”
“Why you came is why I came.” I sipped my juice carelessly, “Ben Richter suddenly held a birthday banquet, do you know why?”
Yao Murong glanced towards the second floor of the villa, “There seems to be a good show tonight.”
“A good show?” I frown. It seems like Yao Murong really knows the purpose of Ben Richter’s party today.
“Good show.” Yao Murong’s smile deepened as she calmly sipped the red wine in her glass, “Ben Richter’s ambition is bigger than expected.”
Hearing that, I was even more looking forward to it.
So far, Mr. Richter’s mother hasn’t shown up, Walker Richter has been upstairs without coming down, just now I listened to the surrounding people are discussing Ben Richter’s intention of organizing a birthday banquet, some people say that Ben Richter is trying to take advantage of the birthday banquet to drive Walker Richter out of the company completely, and also some people say that Ben Richter is trying to take the opportunity to benefit his young son, there are many different opinions.
“If you’ll excuse me, I’ll make it easy.”
I got up, pestle and crutch intending to go.
Yao Murong said meaningfully, “Don’t get lost.”
Although the Richter family has thousands of square feet, I also lived in the Richter family for quite a few days, how could I get lost.
Obviously, Yao Murong had something else in mind.
I said coldly, “Thanks for the reminder.”
I walked towards the restroom with my walking stick, when I passed the warehouse, the golden hair lying on the doorway barked at me twice, I stopped and looked at the golden hair, the golden hair whimpered twice and then stopped making noise, I looked at the warehouse, and I don’t know if Tina Deross’s body is still in there or not.
Although Yao Mubai found evidence that Nancy Richter was killed by Martin Mo, I always feel that there is a problem, Nancy Richter’s death and Ben Richter must not be unrelated, otherwise Nancy Richter would not have uttered Ben Richter’s name in her mouth when she was dying.
This side of the warehouse is a bit far away from the banquet hall, quieter, and you can hear any sounds in the surrounding area extraordinarily clearly.
I was just getting ready to leave when I heard Miley’s voice.
“You’re not my mom, I’m going to find my mom and you’re not allowed to follow me.”
I walked over to the sound of the voice and saw Miley huffing and puffing standing in front of Tina Deross, no, in front of Tina Deross’ twin sister to be exact.
“I’m your mom, Miley, stop it or your dad will get mad later, come back to the room with me okay.” Fake Tina Deross said kindly, trying to reach for Miley’s hand.
Miley took a step backward, her eyes glaring at her, “You’re not not, my mom she sleeps up there, I’ve seen it, you’re a fake.”
Tina Deross’ body is still sitting in the warehouse?
Fake Tina Deross looked at Miley with a helpless face, wanting to go forward but not daring to, Miley grunted and ran over to the warehouse side.
