Chapter 4 A Foster Son All of a Sudden
The room turned quiet after he said that.
They looked at each other and didn’t know what position he was talking about.
In the end, everyone looked at Jason. He was a soldier, he should know what position that was.
“Haha!” Cayden couldn’t help but chuckle.
He laughed heartily, “What are you saying? That sounds like something from a game, so hilarious.”
“Mr. Cook, isn’t he a funny guy?” said Cayden as he looked at Jason.
Jason shrugged and said, “Well, there’s all kind of people in the world. I was in the army for 5 years
and I never heard of the Seven Leagues. I don’t even know that there’s a position for it. Andrew, let me
tell you, there’s only the Commander and the Deputy Commander for the 5 regions in H Country.”
Jason lectured Andrew on the regions and positions.
“I bet you’re just a mere soldier! Don’t try to fool us,” said Jason sarcastically.
Andrew explained calmly even when everyone was suspicious of him, “It only means that you aren’t in
a high enough level to know about it.”
“Haha! So you’re saying that you’re the Commander of a mysterious region in H Country?”
Everyone laughed their hearts out after hearing what Jason said. This Andrew guy was such a joker.
Emily’s face was beet red and she wanted to hide in a hole.
Andrew was too much of a liar. First, he said that he knew Ray Fraser, and now he said he was part of
a mysterious troop of the H Country. She pinched Andrew’s thigh harshly and rolled her eyes at him,
“Andrew, stop talking. I told you not to bluff anymore!”
Andrew pursed his lips. He wanted to say that he wasn’t bluffing.
But Emily continued saying, “I know that you wanted to help me, but your lies were too obvious. We’ll This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
have to leave if you keep saying stuff like this.”
Andrew felt wronged, he shrugged and stopped talking.
At this moment, the T.Y. International Hotel’s owner, Nell Lane, walked past the room. He saw a familiar
face.
It was him, it was that person.
Nell came back from the River Capital today. He saw how the Stone family treated that person in the
airport today, they were so respectful. That person had to be someone powerful to make people in the
Stone family lowered their head to him like that.
“Cooper, come here. Take a bottle out of that box, quick. Take one, no, two and bring it to room 888.”
“Dad, are you talking about the Kweichow Moutai that grandpa left you?”
“Yes, hurry. Oh, actually bring it to me, I’ll bring it over.”
“But dad, that’s our family treasure. It’s not only expensive, but it’s also priceless. You only ever sniff it
during the holidays and never have the heart to drink it. Isn’t it a bit wasteful, giving out 2 bottles at
once right now?”
“Just go get it. It will be more useful to give it to that person than keeping it.”
Not long after, Nell was holding 2 bottles of Kweichow Moutai as he walked to the room Andrew was in.
The moment he saw Andrew, his legs were trembling. This was the power of a man that controlled the
whole army.
Although he was excited and wanted to talk to Andrew, Andrew glanced at him briefly. Nell was a smart
person, he quickly understood what Andrew meant and acted accordingly.
“My dear guest, this is on the house, please accept it.”
Nell then backed down to the door and said, “Enjoy!”
“Yo, the T.Y. International Hotel’s owner is so nice. He gave us something on the house. Is today some
kind of special occasion?” Olivier said jokingly.
Cayden quickly said, “What else? He saw Mr. Cook here and hence he brought us the gift.”
“We are fortunate to be around Mr. Cook. This is some good aged Kweichow Moutai.”
Jason said shamelessly, “Maybe he was trying to butter my old man up! Come, let’s drink.”
The T.Y International Hotel was a successful big business in K City. A lot of huge events were held
here. The owner, Nell Lane had a net worth of a few billion. He wasn’t as rich as the influential families,
but as a business he was huge.
“Oh right, Mr. Cook. I heard that Albert West from the Turner family lost his legs. Did you know about
this?” asked Cayden.
Jason smiled mysteriously, he then asked, “Did you guys know that a VIP came to K city?”
Cayden’s eyes were open wide, “I heard of it. Are you saying that it was the VIP’s doing?”
Jason tried to stay enigmatic, “Well, of course. They cut off Albert’s legs, they were sending the Turner
family a warning. Yet the Turner family hasn’t done anything until now, we can see that the person is
extremely powerful!”
“Do you know him?”
Jason said proudly, “Of course. I am the person I am today because of his help. Do you know why he
came to K City this time around?”
Everyone shook their heads puzzledly.
Jason said curiously, “He’s here in K City to take me as his foster son.”
“Pfft!” Andrew couldn’t help but spurted some rice out of his mouth.
Rice was all over the table, everyone started to yell at him, “Andrew, what the hell are you doing?”
Andrew said, “Sorry, I couldn’t help it!”
He couldn’t help it. Jason wanted to be his foster son all of a sudden. He really couldn’t hold it in, it
wasn’t possible.
“Mr. Cook, did Mr. Fraser invite you to his conference?”
“Of course, he had to.”
“Any family with an asset of more than a hundred million would be invited.”
Suddenly, all eyes were on Emily.
“Hey, so everyone here but Ms. Clark and her fiancé are eligible to attend then?” Cayden purposely
made Emily look bad.
“Who said we couldn’t? We are going,” said Andrew briefly.
“Andrew!” Emily couldn’t help but yanked Andrew, her face turned crimson.
It was fine bluffing about at home because nobody would take him seriously. He learned to spout lies,
but every time he lied he just made himself look worse. She really regretted bringing Andrew over.
“Andrew, let’s go!” Emily yanked Andrew.
“Sorry everyone, we’ll be taking our leave.” Emily felt embarrassed to the max.
“Hey, don’t be in such a rush. We are all here today, and you want to leave right after you eat? We are
to split the bill evenly tonight.” Jason stood up and stopped them.
