Blake shook his head at once. “God, you’re useless. Top dogs like the Cape Consortium make the headlines no matter what they do. How could you not know about this? You really are garbage.”

“He’s just a lazy freeloader. There’s no point saying all that to him.” Miranda glared at Wilbur, her gaze one of disdain.

Jackson glowered at Wilbur as well. “You don’t know how to do anything but eat and sleep. It’s best that you get lost and stop embarrassing us.”

Wilbur was so angered that a laugh escaped him. Who knows how they would react if they were to find out who he really was?

Thankfully, he had hidden his real identity at the time. Otherwise, he would have never seen their true colors.

Just then, the maids began setting up the table with an assortment of lavish dishes.

A brief moment later, Jackson said, “Mister Woods, please join us for lunch.”

“Oh, sure.” Blake got up slowly. Yvonne held him by the arm as they made their way to the dining table.

Wilbur glanced at the time. “It’s barely ten o’clock. Isn’t it a little too early for lunch?”

“You don’t know anything! Mister Woods is our guest of honor. He deserves only the best from us,” Jackson roared back angrily.

Miranda’s expression was mocking as well. “You’ve got no place here. Get some food from the kitchen if you want to eat.”

Yvonne did not care for Wilbur at all either, clutching onto Blake so tightly that the two were nearly one.

Wilbur smirked coldly. It was clear that Yvonne was giving him a hard time on purpose so that he would propose a divorce out of humiliation and then leave with nothing.

He was planning to leave with nothing, but that changed his mind.

Wilbur still wanted to give them one last test, so he said slowly, “I know what you’re trying to do. How about this? You give me back the five million dollars I gave you back then, and we’ll call it even. How’s that?”

up in anger at once. “Did you expect to be living with us for the past three years for free? My daughter’s going to have to remarry because of you. Doesn’t she deserve compensation for that as well? We’re giving you an easy way out by not asking you for any more money. How dare you ask
