"Renee!"
An unhappy voice followed, and a middle-aged man walked over from the crowd. He looked at Renee Grant, who had brought a group of servants to throw Serena Sullivan out, and unhappily reprimanded, "Guests are guests, and today is Dad’s birthday."
Serena was montarily stunned by the familiar face.
On the day Grandpa passed away, he was the one who opened the hospital room door for her and followed her inside.
In the hospital room, she clearly heard Grandpa call him, "Felix."
At the ti, Serena didn’t have the chance to speculate about his identity, as there was the funeral that followed.
Seeing him again today at the Grant Family banquet, coupled with the fact he called Renee "Renee," and Renee, despite her anger, had a look of unmistakable tenderness in her eyes,
He was the eldest son of the Lockwood Family, Carter Lockwood’s brother, Renee Grant’s husband—Felix Lockwood.
Unlike the flamboyant Renee, Felix was low-key and rarely appeared in front of the dia, seldom attending banquets.
He gave Serena a completely different feeling from Carter Lockwood, appearing gentle yet shrewd like a businessman.
"You’re helping her!"
Renee looked angrily at Felix, who lowered his voice and said, "Renee Grant, are you really going to make a scene in this setting?"
"She is Ethan’s wife, she has the right to attend the banquet! Nobody should throw soone out based on who’s accompanying her."
Throwing Serena out would truly disgrace the Grant Family.
"A useless person, fit to be Ethan’s wife?"
Renee was relentless, glaring with disgust at Serena’s face, "Today, I will throw her out."
"Let’s see who dares stop !"
This was a Grant Family event!
Even if Felix wanted to intervene, as a son-in-law, he couldn’t ddle in affairs of the Grant Family.
And Mr. and Mrs. Grant were resting upstairs, even if they ca to the banquet, they would likely listen to their daughter.
"Serena dared to co to this banquet! Renee’s temper won’t tolerate her!"
Voices of discussion rose, so sympathizing with Serena sitting in a wheelchair, others mocking, yet no one stepped forward to stop it.
Finn Chandler regretted bringing Serena here, her face cold, she said lightly, "No need for Mrs. Lockwood to throw us out, we’ll leave."
She ca to discuss business, the Chambers Family was interested in a major project by a family from Imperial Capital, securing it would greatly aid the Chambers Corporation’s future developnt.
Mr. Grant’s birthday, the Imperial Capital’s family authority and the project leader were all coming.
"Finn."
Serena knew Finn’s intentions; she had fought hard to seize the company from her half-brothers, the Chambers Family was rotten inside, and Finn seeking to make the Chambers Corporation and family prosper made obtaining the project a must.
"No rush." Serena smiled, timing it so Ethan Grant should be arriving.
When it was ti to leverage Ethan Grant, she wouldn’t hold back.
"Throw her out!"
Seeing Serena unmoving, Renee shouted sternly.
As servants obeyed Renee’s orders and moved forward, Yaya also stepped in front of Serena.
Yaya and Finn’s skills could easily take down this lot, really not a problem.
Thinking this, Finn truly moved.
She already disliked the Grant Family, hitting a few could vent for Serena, and they practically offered themselves without striking back.
Seeing the chaos unfold, Renee’s face turned ugly; last ti at the Lockwood Family, this ti on Grant Family turf, did Serena really think the Grant Family was easy to bully?
Renee planned to call all the bodyguards outside in, determined to throw Serena out at all costs.
Seeing her insistence, Felix frowned and said, "Ethan is coming soon, can you control the scene?"
"Hmph!"
Renee snorted disdainfully.
Just as Felix said, while Renee was preparing to call the bodyguards in, Ethan Grant arrived.
