Chapter 4

After a while, they arrived at Brookspring in the southern suburbs.

There lay the most luxurious villa community in all of Brookspring.

Almost every elite member of Brookspring’s high society preferred to reside in this place. It appeared to be far from the city’s hustle and bustle, but in reality, it was just a guise for a seemingly reclusive lifestyle.

Very soon, they arrived at the Harper Villa.

The Harper Villa stood on a hillside in the southern suburbs.

In fact, almost the entire hill belonged to the Harper family.

Right in the middle of the villa complex, there was a lively scene with people bustling around, and the place was lit up as if it were Christmas.

The reason was quite simple.

This day marked the 80th birthday of Samuel Harper, the current head of the Harper family.

At the moment, Samuel was seated in the main hall of the Harper Villa. With his face beaming, he was dressed in a red traditional suit.

He watched as guests came and went. All of them offered him birthday wishes.

At the entrance of the hall, a servant with a booming voice continuously announced the gifts brought by these guests.

“Representing Pinnacle Enterprises, the chairman brings birthday greetings to Mr. Samuel with two gold bars, each weighing 10 pounds.

“Representing Degrom Pharmaceuticals, the chairman brings birthday greetings to Mr. Samuel with five Nourishing Pills.

“Representing Lilosey Garments, the chairman brings birthday greetings to Mr. Samuel with a gift of 200 thousand dollars.”

These announcements echoed throughout the room.

As Samuel listened to these lavish gifts, he maintained a bright smile on his face.

But the very next moment, the voice of the servant announcing at the entrance seemed to change dramatically.

A deep, hoarse voice filled with boundless hostility resonated through the Harper Villa.

“The Clifford family from Brookspring came here to wish Mr. Samuel a happy birthday.”

This voice rumbled like thunder. It reverberated in the sky above the Harper Villa. It lingered for a long time without dissipating.

As soon as they heard the voice, everyone in the room was suddenly stunned. All eyes instinctively turned toward the

entrance.

Hearing that, they thought to themselves, “The Clifford family from Brookspring?”
