Brandon on the other end of the phone responded hypocritically: "We are all classmates, it would not be good to leave Lucas behind. He is alone now, what's wrong with us treating him to a meal out of kindness..."

Of course, he didn't have such good intentions. His purpose of inviting me was nothing more than to step on me in front of many classmates. He hated me for having been with Lucienne before , and he wanted to tell everyone that as long as he was there, the class beauty could only be with him. And I was just the class beauty's spare tire, who could be easily dumped.

I thought about it and finally agreed to go to the banquet tomorrow night. After hanging up the phone, I immediately contacted my mother. I asked my mother for help, one of the few times, and asked her to help me find Uncle Brandon's contact information. They are all Chinese Americans, and it shouldn't be difficult to find them with my mother's connections.

After asking around, I found out that Brandon 's uncle was actually my mother's direct subordinate. After my mother's help, I officially got in touch with Brandon 's uncle.

I told him the whole story. Brandon 's uncle is a reasonable man. After hearing everything, he was furious and wanted to take a private plane back to the country immediately. He didn't expect his nephew to do such a despicable thing.

Through this phone call, I learned a shocking secret. It turned out that Brandon asked Lucienne to give birth to this child not because he wanted to have his own child, but with a purpose! Because his uncle was infertile, his uncle promised that as long as he had a child, he would retire and transfer all his property to his name. Unfortunately, Brandon 's previous wife was also infertile. Therefore, Brandon did such a despicable thing just to get his uncle's property!

The next night, I dressed myself up well-this was also the first time I dressed myself up seriously in my life. My purpose in doing this is not to win back Lucienne , but to appear in a dignified manner and slap both of them in the face.

When I pushed open the door of the box, everyone's eyes turned to me. Looking around, all the classmates had already arrived. I had clearly arrived half an hour earlier than the time Brandon had given me, but judging by the atmosphere, it was obvious that the classmates had already arrived.

I vaguely smelled a conspiracy, and I knew that this banquet was not that simple. I looked at most of the classmates present, and they looked away one by one as if they didn't see me, and no one greeted me. This made me more certain that getting classmates who hadn't seen each other for a long time together was a gimmick, and congratulating them on their reunion was also a gimmick. Their real purpose today was to target me!

I took the initiative to say hello to my best roommate in college, but he just glanced at me and didn't respond. I know this was Brandon's plan in advance, he just wanted to embarrass me in public!

Classmates surrounded Brandon , Lucienne and their child like stars surrounding the moon: "The baby is so cute! He is worthy of being the child of the campus hunk and the campus flower, he really inherited the excellent genes from you two!" "If I were to say, Lucienne and Brandon should stand together, Lucas should stand aside..." "Baby, call me auntie, give me a red envelope if you call me..."

All the students present were speaking in compliments. I knew that these students were relying on Brandon 's power and now was the opportunity to curry favor with him. As if they had agreed in advance, all the people present had no seats away from the "family of three". Some were sitting there or had clothes and other items placed there to indicate that the seats were occupied... I scanned the entire banquet hall twice and found that only the table where the family of three sat had an empty seat, and that empty seat was right to Brandon 's left. At this moment, my eyes met Brandon 's, and he looked at me with a fiery gaze as if he was treating me as a piece of fish on a chopping board for him to slaughter at any time.

I smiled and strode towards the empty seat. I squeezed through the crowd and sat down next to Brandon. The classmates expanded the circle as if they had agreed to do so, and the family of three who were originally the center of attention brought me along.
