Chapter 1757

Kane wiped the grin off his face, and for once, got serious.

“Why can’t Presley just enjoy his retirement? Why does he have to poke his nose into everything? It’s 2023, not the good old days when he was the king of the hill. How much longer does he think he can keep this up?”

There was a hint of disrespect in his words, a subtle suggestion that Presley wouldn’t be around much longer. But that was a cold, hard fact.

Even if Presley could live to be a hundred, they were still younger than him. The world was their young people’s oyster

Damon remained expressionless, and Chloe didn’t bat an eyelid. It was as if they didn’t understand the implications of Presley’s words c2

Robin led Presley forward, the reporters circling them, eager for more news. As they neared the security checkpoint, Presley stopped and glared at them

The reporters stood to one side, glancing from Damon’s group to Presley, waiting to see what sparks might fly between the two generations

Out of courtesy, Kane greeted Presley “Greetings, sir

But Presley just grunted in response, not bothering to hide his displeasure

Kane raised an eyebrow, looking unfazed. He glanced at the reporters, cleared his throat, and sighed. “At this moment. I feel inspired to recite a poem

His sudden shift to a more poetic tone caught everyone’s attention. Chloe grimaced. What was this clown up to now?

Then Kane went on to recite a weird poem that had everyone present fall silent

Presley’s beard quivered with rage. He had lived a long life and he was not about to be insulted by a poem. This brat was suggesting that he was old–fashioned, that he belonged to the past and he couldn’t keep up with them?

Despite Kane’s usual lack of seriousness, he had actually leamed to use poetry to insult Presley.

Presley glared at him. “Fine, I’ll watch and see what kind of storm you can stir up. His booming voice echoed through the area. Kane smirked as Presley stormed

off

“Hey, sir, the VIP security check is this way. There’s no way forward there.”

Presley stopped in his tracks. He had been too angry to notice.

Kane chuckled, took a few strides, and started going through security.

Even private planes needed flight paths, and with the Global Economic Summit happening, security was tighter than usual. They all had to go through security checks

Kane was the last one to go through Presley was too angry to do anything about it now

Once they had gone through security, they boarded the plane and waited for takeoff. Nathan was laughing so hard he had to hold his stomach. His laughter filled the plane

“Damn, Kane you’re something else. Who decides to recite a poem out of the blue? Don’t disrespect literature like that. It’s hilarious coming from you.”

Kane gritted his teeth. At least I can recite it. And I used it very appropriately today, didn’t I? What night do you have to laugh at me?”

“Damn, you’re so smart, knowing how to recite a poem Should I tell our elementary school teacher? He’d probably cry tears of joy
