Chapter 1769


    Then the group of drivers passed the time smoking and chatting.


    Suddenly the lounge door opened, and a waiter in a vest came in pushing a dining cart. There were a


    lot of desserts and drinks like coffee and tea on the dining cart.


    After cing all the food on the small coffee table in the middle of the lounge, the waiter smiled and


    said, “Enjoy, everybody…”


    Then the waiter pushed the dining cart and left.


    As soon as the waiter left, the drivers dived on the desserts.


    “Here, try this. It contains alcohol!”


    “Are you kidding? We have to driveter!”


    “This is delicious! It’s so delicious. I’ve never tasted anything so delicious before!”


    “It seems to be a Raphael City specialty. I saw it on TV before.”


    “The Wosh family‘s ball is so grand. They even bought desserts from other cities!”


    “Try this coffee. This coffee is good too…”


    The drivers enjoyed themselves with the food while Jagoan sat quietly on a couch nearby, waiting for


    time to pass.


    The driver with a face full of stubble saw Jagoan sitting alone and waved to Jagoan, saying, “Come on,


    kid. Have some food too.”


    The beautiful woman’s driver, Old Jones, said immediately, “Why did you invite him? He’s not one of


    us.”


    “Oh, don’t say that. Since he attended Dr. Wosh’s daughter’s birthday ball, he may as well have some


    desserts.”


    The driver with a pointy chin also said, “Come on. We’re going to finish all the best desserts if you don‘t


    don’t think you’ve ever seen it.”


    Jagoan calmly nced at the desserts on the small table and felt helpless.


    The desserts on the table were delicate but were far from high-end. They were the more ordinary stuff


    you would find at a normal banquet. However, the drivers looked like they were tasting some hidden

    delicacy, leaving him speechless.


    “No thanks. You can enjoy them…” Jagoan shook his head and said tly.


    “Hey, are you looking down on us?” The driver with a pointy chin snapped.


    The beautiful woman’s driver, Old Jones, said, “Look, I told you to leave him alone, but you insisted on


    inviting him. Do you know what it’s like to be given the cold shoulder now?”


    Jagoan pretended not to hear anything. He did not bother arguing with the group of drivers.

    The ballroom.


    Benedict greeted each guest with a smile and chatted with them.


    Seeing his daughter conversing with a gentle and beautiful woman, he went over to greet them and


    said, “Rosie, I didn’t expect you to attend my daughter’s party. I thought you would not respond to me


    as before.”


    Rosie smiled but did not speak so politely. “I came because it’s Miriam’s birthday ball today. I did it for


    Miriam‘s sake and not yours. I won’t bothering if it’s a party you threw for yourself. You know


    that…”


    Rosie’s words did not anger Benedict.
