The Established Siblings Of The Pack

Chapter 98

at that moment as everyone leaped to compliment and thank Nancy.“I guess bigshots like Mr. Jovovich are just different, huh? He really does not hold back.”“Thanks for the gift, Nancy! I could never bring myself to splurge like this. This sure is a special way to commemorate a reunion, am I right?”Nancy was bewildered by everyone’s praises and gratitude. Tyler never mentioned any of this to me, she thought in a daze, but when she saw how impressed her friends were, she felt certain that Tyler was the only person who had the money to pull this gesture off.As such, she giggled and said indulgently, “What can I say? Tyler loves me so much that he’s always coming up with ways to make me happy.” She raised a brow as she glanced over at Serena and Kingsley, then drawled haughtily, “I bet the both of you have never dreamed about owning something as luxurious as this. You can each take a belt home. Think of it as charity on my part.” Paige interjected angirly before Kingsley could even say anything, “He doesn’t need your charity, you filthy hag. I’ll get one for him as a gift!”“Hah! So at the end of the day, the only way for him to own a designer belt is through a woman’s altruism.” Emory was so jealous that the only way he could feel better was to put Kingsley down, and he went on to tease viciously, “If you’re so great, why don’t you make your own money and buy it for yourself?”Frank heard this and pointed out incredulously, “What are you talking about? Mr. Nicholson was the one who bought these belts in the first place!”Everyone gaped at him as the news sunk in. They exchanged questioning looks and asked among themselves, “Who’s Mr, Nicholson? Do we know anyone with that name?”In the midst of the confusion, Kingsley put his hand up and addressed Frank, “Thank you for coming all this way to deliver the belts, Mr. Lowell.”Bowing his head respectfully, Frank replied, “It’s no trouble at all, Mr. Nicholson. We hope to serve you again.” With that, he backed out of the private dining room and closed the door.For a while, a deathly silence filled the air, and everyone was staring at Kingsley with such utter shock that it was a wonder their eyes did not bug out of their heads.They could not believe that he was the one who had bought these expensive belts.Some of them were so astonished that their jaws dropped, and it was as if they could not wrap their heads around this plot twist.No one said a word at first, then Nancy snapped out of her reverie and cried belligerently, “No! That’s impossible! There’s no way a bumpkin like him could afford these!”She had taken all the credit earlier, and it was too late for her to get off her high horse now. Even though Frank had clearly said that Kingsley was the one who bought the belts, she refused to believe that that was the truth.“Nancy’s right. Where would an orphan get the money to buy all these anyway? These belts cost over two million altogether!” Emory seethed with rage. “I bet he hired that man earlier as part of his act. These belts must be counterfeits!”The
