Chapter 215 Sarah, Do You Have the Audacity to Show Up?
When he said that, the Johnson family exchanged glances, their eyes full of deep confusion.
They weren’t here for the banquet?
Why would they bring gifts if they weren’t here for the banquet?
Matthew forced a smile.
Unwillingly, he said, "You’re very funny, Mr. Wilson. I’m sure we can learn from you."
The rest of the Johnson family echoed him, saying, "That's right. A sense of humor is important. No wonder Mr. Wilson has achieved success in business. After all, it's all about mindset. How admirable."
"Mr. Wilson, gentlemen, let's go in. The other guests are waiting for you."
"I'll definitely make a toast to you later. I hope you can all take care of the Johnson family in the future."
But all they received for their flattery were cold glares from the big shots.
Jack looked impatient.
He spoke coldly to the Johnson family. "Let me reiterate once again. I wasn't joking, and I have no interest in joking with the little Johnson family. We came to attend a banquet, but it's not a housewarming banquet. So, can you move now?"
"Huh?" The Johnson family members were all dumbfounded and completely shocked.
After half a day of anticipation, it turned out they had made a mistake.
Grandma Johnson's face turned red. She felt very embarrassed.
She turned her head and stared angrily at Matthew, demanding an explanation in a low voice. "What is going on here? Give me an explanation."
Matthew trembled in fear when he saw Grandma Johnson’s intense gaze. Sweat dripped down his forehead uncontrollably.
He had only meant well. How did it end up being a big mistake?
Coincidentally, two banquets were being held at Platan Heights Villa on the same day. Unwillingly, Matthew continued to question, "Mr. Wilson, is there another banquet at Platan Heights Villa? I haven't heard anything about it. Could you please tell me which family it is?"
Jack glanced at him indifferently and said, "It's the three-year wedding anniversary of the owner of Villa No. 1 at Platan Heights. Now you know, right?"
When he said that, the Johnson family felt their heads go blank for a few seconds.
Their housewarming banquet had actually clashed with the owner of Villa No. 1's wedding anniversary banquet.
Why hadn't they heard about a big event like that earlier? If they had known, they would definitely not have agreed to have the housewarming banquet on the same day.
After all, in the circle of the wealthy, reputation and social status mattered.
The owner of Villa no. 1 hadn't promoted their wedding anniversary banquet, but a small second-tier family from an ordinary villa area had tried to steal the limelight.
If the other party resented them, their future days in the Platan Heights Villa community would definitely be difficult.
The Johnson family felt a chill down their spine as they thought about that.
Jack and the other important figures didn't even bother acknowledging these people.
They walked straight into the Platan Heights Villa community and quickly disappeared.
After the important figures disappeared, Grandma Johnson suddenly turned around and slapped Matthew on the cheek. "Useless child. You can't even get this right?"
Matthew covered his cheek, bowed his head, and remained silent. Lawrence secretly breathed a sigh of relief, grateful that he hadn’t who run over to deliver the message. Otherwise, he would be in big trouble now.
The rest of the Johnson family were all a bit disappointed. They remembered when they had intentionally showed off in front of the guests, claiming that Jack and other super important figures had come to support them.
In the end, it turned out to be a misunderstanding. How could they salvage their reputation now? As they were all in a dilemma, a red BMW stopped at the entrance of the community.
The car door opened, and two people got out - two women, both dressed in beautiful evening gowns, looking dazzling. The Johnson family's attention immediately fell on one of the women who was dressed in a light blue evening gown - it was Sarah.
Sarah had a great figure and was tall. Normally, she exuded the vibe of a powerful professional woman, but tonight, she was dressed in a light blue evening gown and looked elegant.
She seemed to have an aura that no one else could reach.
Even the Johnson family, who were very familiar with Sarah, were stunned for a while when they saw her.
She looked very beautiful.
After Sarah got out of the car, she looked around in confusion and asked, "Casey, where are we?"
Casey replied, "This is Platan Height Villa. This is where we’re attending the event tonight."
Sarah looked surprised and nervous. "Oh? Platan Height Villa? This place is very luxurious. I haven't been here before. What if something goes wrong with the event? What should I do?"
Casey smiled and said, "Don't worry, just relax. Do whatever you need to do, don't overthink it. Let's go in."
Casey and Sarah walked toward the entrance of Platan Height Villa.
As they were about to reach the entrance, Sarah finally saw the Johnson family standing there, glancing at her with slightly unfriendly eyes.
She couldn't help but feel perplexed.
Weren’t the Johnson family hosting a housewarming banquet tonight?
Why were they all outside instead of at the banquet?
Of course, Sarah didn't dwell on it too much.
After all, she had already fallen out with the Johnson family, so it didn't matter what they did.
Therefore, she approached them with the mindset of not expecting or seeing anything and planned to just go inside.
As they reached the entrance of the villa community, Grandma Johnson coldly shouted, "Sarah. Stop. Who allowed you to come here?"
Sarah stopped and looked calmly at Grandma Johnson, "Why can't I be here?"
Grandma Johnson was in a bad mood and was looking for a place to vent her anger. Since Sarah had walked into her line of fire, she naturally wouldn't let her go so easily.
So, with a stern face, she turned to Karen and scolded, "Is this your daughter? She has no manners and doesn't know her place. I didn’t allow her to come to the housewarming banquet. Did you ask her to come?"
Karen was startled.
Karen quickly responded, "Mom. You misunderstood. I never told that little brat to come to the housewarming banquet. And I disowned her this morning."
After saying that, Karen angrily scolded Sarah. "You ungrateful girl, are you trying to get me in trouble? I really regret giving birth to you. You make me so angry."
Following that, the rest of the Johnson family began to mock her.
Abigail said, "Oh my. You were trying to dress up, but too bad you're just a sparrow and can't compare to me becoming a phoenix."
Andy said, "Hmph. Someone’s reputation had already been ruined on the internet. I don't know where she found the courage to show her face and have the audacity to attend the Johnson family's housewarming banquet."
Matthew said, "Get lost. The Johnson family doesn't welcome you. Don't bring bad luck on us by standing here."
Everyone attacked her with words.
Sarah clenched her teeth, and her eyes reddened slightly.
