Chapter 111 Worth over a billion dollars
Dermot felt innocent to be implicated, and Evelyn was at a loss for words. Grandpa Doyle might have become confused with age, forgetting that she and Dermot were already divorced.
For a long time, Grandpa Doyle carefully put away the watch, glancing at Natalie and the girl next to her, and coldly snorted, "You can't appreciate a Patek Philippe Ref. 2499 worth over a billion dollars. I guess you think you're the richest person in Moris City."
Although Grandpa Doyle was looking at Natalie's good friend while speaking, Natalie's face still turned red, ashamed.
Worth over a billion dollars?
Who could have imagined that this piece of junk was worth over a billion dollars?
Moreover, where did Evelyn get so much money? She casually gives away something worth over a billion dollars? What is her relationship with Grandpa Doyle?
For a moment, everyone was curious.
Some even began to suspect that Evelyn might be Grandpa Doyle's illegitimate daughter, because tonight, none of the other gifts could compare to the value of Evelyn's. If there wasn't a very special relationship, how could she give such an expensive gift?
Grandpa Doyle glanced at everyone, as if he knew what they were thinking, and said coldly, "Evelyn is Dermot's wife, my granddaughter-in-law. Is it strange for her to give me a valuable gift?"
Dermot's wife!!!
Everyone was amazed. Their faces filled with disbelief.
She really is the wife that Dermot was forced to marry according to rumors?
She doesn't seem like what the rumors described, everyone thought inside their hearts.
"Grandpa Doyle must be going senile. Evelyn and Dermot had been divorced for many days.” Keith appeared with a glass of wine. He had been watching from the corner all along and didn't intend to intervene, but Grandpa Doyle's words made him unhappy.
Keith came to Evelyn's side and said to Grandpa Doyle and Dermot, "Evelyn is my companion today."
Grandpa Doyle immediately frowned and unhappily asked, "Kid from the Kartland family, what is your relationship with Evelyn?"
"We're friends," Keith answered, then grinned and said, "Of course, only temporarily. I have confidence in making Evelyn my girlfriend."
Evelyn sighed, glanced at him, but didn't say anything to explain, effectively preventing Grandpa Doyle from playing matchmaker between her and Dermot.
Hearing this, Grandpa Doyle was indeed angered, both at Keith for wanting to take Evelyn away and at Dermot for not fighting for her!
"Although Evelyn and Dermot are divorced, she still calls me grandfather. Since that's the case, it is my duty as a grandfather to look out for her."
Grandpa Doyle looked Keith up and down for a moment and then said, "You are not worthy of my Evelyn. Just give up."
Keith, "..."
Did you think I couldn't see through your intentions? Keith thought. Coldly smiling inwardly, he didn't back down and said, "What a pity, but what you say doesn't matter."
Seeing that Grandpa Doyle was about to say something else, Evelyn timely interrupted, "Grandpa, today is your birthday celebration. Don't let insignificant matters affect your mood."
"You're right," Grandpa Doyle nodded, then said to everyone, "Let's all disperse and continue the celebration."
With that, everyone reluctantly left, including Natalie, who was still in a daze and being pulled away by her good friends. She was still in shock and couldn't recover.
Evelyn also wanted to leave with Keith since she was just a guest today.
"Evelyn, can you chat with me for a while, my granddaughter?" Grandpa Doyle called out to her.
Evelyn didn't refuse and told Keith, "Wait for me."
"Alright," Keith nodded and grinned, "Don't forget. You are my companion. Don't get too close to someone else."
"Don't worry. I won't forget," Evelyn replied helplessly.
