Chapter 577


    Cynthia''s expression changed. Cecil''s words meant that she didn''t have anyone to love her, so no


    one remembered what she liked to eat.


    Cecil realized that Cynthia was not observant enough to tell who was in-charge of the party.


    Saniogo looked at her and smiled. "That''s right. Alexander has never brought a girl home, and


    you''re the first one."


    "Will I be thest one?" She asked Alexander with a smile.


    He nodded solemnly. "You must be thest one."


    She nodded with satisfaction. This awareness was a good thing.


    "Mr. Saniogo, Mr. Alexander, Miss Everleigh is back," the butler came in from the door and shouted.


    Everleigh and Theodore had arrived. Of course, the gifts would not be missed out.


    "You''re here. Hurry up ande in." Saniogo knew that she had invited Theodore.


    "Mr. Jenkins."


    "Mr. Godfrey, your presence is enough. There''s no need to bring gifts along," Saniogo said.


    Theodore smiled. "I''m here to visit my girlfriend''s elders. It would not be reasonable toe empty-


    handed."


    Saniogo just smiled without saying a word.


    Everleigh looked at Cecil, who was sitting on the sofa, and looked at her in shock. "Cecil, what''s


    with your expression?"


    Cecil didn''t know that she would join the gathering. If she had known, she would have waited for her


    toe.


    Everleigh smiled awkwardly. She knew that Cecil woulde, otherwise, she wouldn''t have chosen


    that day. The main purpose was that they could have dinner together.


    Alexander was surprised as well, but he soon understood Everleigh''s intentions. "That''s good. The


    more, the merrier."


    "Uncle, when will we start eating?"


    "Wait for another minute. Your uncle ising over as well. Alexander brought his girlfriend to meet


    the elders. It would be nice to meet with everyone," Saniogo exined.


    Although he wanted to have dinner with his family, he knew Luqman''s temper. If he refused, it would


    not be good.


    Moreover, everyone would know about the rtionship between the two children sooner orter.


    When Everleigh heard this, she didn''t say anything else. The group of people sat there chatting,


    except for Cynthia, who was seated on the sofa. She was clearly out of ce.


    However, she did not intend to be involved in the conversations.


    Luqman and Linggon arrived. As for Fenna, she was unwilling to attend such a family feast.


    "Saniogo."


    "Uncle."

    "Yes, We''re waiting for you all to have dinner. Let me introduce them to you. This is Cecil from the


    Hayes family, Alexander''s girlfriend," Saniogo introduced.


    Linggon and Luqman were shocked. They didn''t expect her to be a member of the Hayes family.


    "Hello, Mr. Jenkins," Cecil stood up and greeted him.


    Theodore nced at Luqman and Linggon. His impression of them was still quite good.


    Luqman seldom showed up, so he didn''t have much business with the Godfrey family. As for


    Linggon, Theodore had seen him several times at various events.


    "Nice to meet you."


    "Let''s eat. We''re all hungry," Saniogo said to the butler.


    They sat down and ate. At the dinner table, Theodore served Everleigh some food and poured


    some fruit juice for her. Alexander was helping Cecil to peel the shells off the shrimps. Cecil and


    Everleigh seemed to be used to such enjoyment, so they picked food for the men from time to time.


    When Saniogo, Lugman, and the others saw this scene, they all felt that it was quite harmonious


    and there was nothing wrong with their behavior. However, Cynthia could not help but say, "Who are


    you acting for?"


    Although her words were not loud, they were loud enough for everyone at the table to hear.


    Theodore and Alexander looked at each other with ridicule in their eyes. Alexander asked, "Are you


    jealous of what you can''t have?"


    "I... Alexander, I don''t mean that. I just think that you are the heir of the Jenkins family anyway. How


    could you do such a thing?" Cynthia didn''t like the treatment received by Everleigh and Cecil.


    "If your cousin is not good to me, I won''t be with him. Cynthia, you shouldn''t cause a scene even if


    you don''t like me. After all, I am also a guest. Aren''t you afraid that I will just leave?" Cecil looked at


    her with a fake smile, and the coldness in her eyes did not diminish at all.


    She had the guts to voice out her thoughts.


    Everleigh lowered her head and served some vegetables for Theodore. Cecil was the host of the


    party, not Cynthia. When Theodore saw her serving food for him, he didn''t hesitate to eat it. He had


    a good time watching the show and had a better appetite when he ate.


    Cynthia was about to retort, but she was held back by Saniogo''s gloomy eyes. She could only stop


    talking unwillingly.


    As for Saniogo, this meal was full of worries. If Alexander was with other people, it would be okay,


    but unfortunately, he had gotten together with someone from the Hayes family.


    In the Four Great Families, the Hayes family''s business was poor, but their official power could not


    be underestimated. Whoever had a joint marriage with the Hayes family could gain a lot of power.


    He turned his head and looked at Linggon, who was eating leisurely, as if everything that happened


    around him had nothing to do with him. He did not care who Alexander was with.


    After the meal, Cynthia went straight upstairs to avoid everyone. Saniogo and Luqman went to the


    study room to discuss something. Linggon called his girlfriend, leaving the four of them in the living


    room. Cecil leaned on the sofa and said weakly, "Isn''t it inappropriate for me toe today?"


    "You don''t have to worry about Cynthia," Alexander reassured her.


    "I don''t care about her, but what will your father think of me? Will he think that I''m the type who likes


    to show off? Others will misunderstand my intentions and think that I''m here to seize power," she


    said miserably.


    Everleigh chuckled and said, "Don''t worry, Uncle Saniogo won''t think like that. He is dissatisfied with


    Cynthia as well. He won''t feel that you are rude, but he probably feels ashamed by the behavior of


    the Jenkins family."


    She was right. The more Cynthia targeted a person, the more Saniogo felt that the impression of


    the Jenkins family worsened.


    Cecil looked at her with suspicion. "Are you telling the truth?"


    "Of course it''s true," Everleigh said in a very positive tone.


    Hearing this, Cecil was relieved.


    In fact, it was also the reason why Alexander did not speak. Even if his father did not like him, he


    could still solve the problem.


    As for Cynthia, he should give her some warnings.


    Theodore sat at the side, looking up at the spot upstairs. His deep eyes shone with a faint light.


    Everleigh found that he didn''t talk much all night, so she couldn''t help but ask, "What are you


    looking at?"


    "Does Luqman usually behave like this?" He asked in confusion.


    Alexander understood his meaning and couldn''t help asking, "What do you want to ask?"


    "He was pleased to meet with us, but his expression says otherwise when he saw Cecil," Theodore


    exined.


    Alexander was a smart man. His eyes sank and he looked at Cecil subconsciously. It was not that


    he didn''t know what Luqman was thinking, but that was his uncle. As a junior, he couldn''t say too


    much.


    Theodore''s words reminded him of this.


    "Mr. Godfrey, you''re really observant."


    "Carefully observing isn''t enough. It''s just that the bigger the family, the more ambitious it will be.


    Don''t you understand this sentence, Mr. Jenkins?" Theodoreughed lightly and said with a hint of


    meaning.
