Chapter 921: Chapter 924 What is the Redington family? Never heard of it (2) Chapter 921: Chapter 924 What is the Redington family? Never heard of it (2) “Your family, the Redington family?” Dominic Taylor laughed.
He was a man of open and forthright character and actually didn’t care about one’s background.
But this was a matchmaking banquet prepared for his nephew, and it involved the interests of the Lucas family.
Therefore, he had to force himself to be soone he didn’t like, an opportunist.
“Miss Redington, let’s be frank here. I know all about your background. You’re young and beautiful, and could have a bright future. Why stoop to being soone’s lackey?”
Dominic Taylor believed that Lily was Theodore Lucas’s person.
“I advise you to refrain from such opportunistic actions and from making such shaless boasts in front of so many people. By doing so, you only make yourself the butt of the joke.”
Dominic Taylor’s words were firm, not seeming to humiliate, but more like advising Lily.
And no wonder he thought Lily was bragging.
Because not only did Dominic Taylor, but also the other guests behind him began to laugh at this mont.
Setting aside the wealthy families, they were also unaware of any Eastonian family with the surna Redington that could be described as ‘deep-rooted.’
“I don’t feel like I’m the butt of any joke,” Lily shrugged her shoulders, acknowledging Dominic Taylor’s kindness.
But still, she felt she had to speak her mind.
“My family may not be the oldest, but if we are talking about depth of heritage, I think… there’s probably not a single one among those present that could match it.”
Eastonian politics had been shaken over a hundred years ago.
At that ti, many century-old family lineages had ended.
One of the few surviving wealthy families was the Lucas family.
The Reddington family, on the other hand, has been one of the four great families in Europe from a very early ti.
The Duke title was conferred upon the ruling person of each generation of the Reddington family.
From the first Duke to the present, there have been seventeen generations.
In terms of depth of heritage, the Reddingtons are not outmatched by any family here.
“Ha, keep boasting! There are no such prominent Redington families in all of Eastonia. We should take your word for it that your family is powerful? You think we’re three-year-old children to be fooled!”
Lily’s recent statents had offended nearly all the self-proclaid mbers of prominent families.
At this point, there was no need for Dominic Taylor to say much more, as soone in the crowd started to provoke.
“That’s right, if you’re really as great as you claim, then why have we never heard of you? Lily Redington, who even is that person, has anyone here heard of her?”
“No, probably just our ignorance, that’s why we don’t know about these supposedly great Redington families.”
Lily smiled at their mockery without getting angry.
What they said was indeed correct, there were no great Redington families in Eastonia.
Therefore, she didn’t bla them for their mockery.
She simply looked towards Dominic Taylor, losing her previous edge, and smiled gently.
“Regardless, Mr. Taylor, today I am your guest, and I assure you that my identity ets the criteria of this event. As for you, if you still want to leave, then you can have the hotel staff throw out.”
The premise was, if they dared to do so.
Of course, she didn’t say the last part out loud.
Dominic Taylor had a nagging feeling that sothing was off.
This Lily Redington, why could she be so calm?
Dominic Taylor was an impulsive man by nature; if Lily had not spoken as she did, he might have had soone keep an eye on her rather than forcibly eject her.
But her words, to Dominic Taylor’s ears, beca a veiled challenge.
“Have the hotel security co over to remove her!” he ordered a subordinate in a low voice.
