Chapter 5

Nate sighed helplessly, "Oh, what kind of devil have I stirred up?"
Nate and his wife hung their heads, their expressions extremely somber. For them, today was the height of humiliation.
In a corner, Yolanda silently endured the mockery, saying nothing as tears quietly streamed down her face. She never imagined a more embarrassing moment could come. She looked at Michael, and even in her heart, a trace of disgust began to surface. She didn't care that Michael went to prison, but she could not accept his attitude.
She had hoped that Michael would be grounded and start anew after his release. However, the real Michael deeply disappointed her. His behavior was unrealistic, sensational, and vain—like that of a clown.
Andrew clearly had no intention of letting Michael off easily. He sneered and said provocatively, "Oh, so aren't you General Dark Knight? Tomorrow night, there will be a grand welcome banquet for this heavyweight figure! I look forward to seeing you there."
Andrew, well-acquainted with such gatherings, was indeed familiar with these events. Michael planned to settle in S City, so he sent an agent to arrange for his presence.
After all, a heavyweight figure like him wandering around could cause unnecessary panic. Thus, S City arranged this welcome banquet.
Kenny asked curiously, "Andrew, will you also attend the banquet?"
Hearing this question, Andrew proudly puffed out his chest and smiled, "I just received two invitation letters."
In reality, Andrew had spent nearly 2 million dollars for this banquet.
At that moment, Kevin, the mayor's secretary from S City, entered.
"Mr. Koons, here are your invitation letters!"
Andrew was stunned as he suddenly received ten invitation letters. He was puzzled. Didn't he only just buy two invitations? Why were there suddenly ten, personally delivered by the mayor's secretary?
Then Kenny exclaimed loudly, "Andrew is amazing! The city mayor's secretary sent ten invitations! Andrew, you are the pride of the Kunderas! Well done!"
"Andrew, this is fantastic! How impressive!"
Sean admired Andrew, "Molly really married a great husband! You're the happiest woman. But Yolanda's marriage is unfortunate. She had married a criminal!"
Molly Kundera told Yolanda, "Yolanda, I'm sorry but my husband is truly wonderful. If you have any difficulties, come to us. But I must keep my distance from Michael. I have to be cautious…"
Yolanda was extremely angry. It was undoubtedly a public humiliation, but she couldn't refute it.
Andrew's tactics were indeed clever. The mayor's secretary personally sent out the invitations. The Kunderas hadn't even received any.
Nate and his wife were consumed with jealousy.
If Yolanda could marry such an impressive husband, they would probably be laughing in their dreams. They would only need to count money every day in the future. After all, Andrew's brother was interested in their daughter.
But Yolanda's insistence meant they couldn't marry their daughter to Andrew's brother.
Andrew himself was stunned. In S City, he had no such power. This must be a mistake. But at this crucial moment, he could only go along with it.
In fact, such an error would only enhance his own prestige.
Andrew smiled and said, "Grandfather, I'm sorry. I only managed to get ten seats. After all, the quota for the banquet is limited."
Andrew suggested, "Grandfather, please decide how to distribute these ten invitations!"
Apart from Nate's family, Kenny's four children all received invitations. The remaining invitations went to Sean and other distinguished members.
"Thank you, Grandpa!" Sean and the others flaunted their invitations in front of Nate's family.
Nate's family could only silently lower their heads. In Nate's eyes, they were even inferior to these younger people. Though dissatisfied, they also recognized their own lack of capability.
At that moment, Michael suddenly asked, "Why didn't we receive an invitation?"
"Hahaha…"
"How could your family expect an invitation? What contribution have you made to the Kunderas?" Sean asked mercilessly.
"Yes, how shameless! How dare you even covet it?"
Nate's family felt despair.
Michael retorted, "These invitations were given to you because of my influence!"
Ryan could not stand it and said loudly, "Michael, do you have any shame? This invitation was clearly obtained by Andrew, and has nothing to do with you!"
Andrew was equally angry, "Who the hell are you?"
John pointed at Nate and reproached him, "Look at him, Nate. Take him away! He's not welcome at the next family banquet! We don't want to be embarrassed because of him!"
Yolanda pulled Michael away.
"Come back with me!" Yolanda's voice was filled with shame and despair.
