Chapter 350 Adeline Saved Ronan's Life
Ronan had never been involved in such events before.
The friends he usually hung out with were of average character.
At the real family banquets, all he needed to do was not make a fool of himself.
With his excellent brother Tobias standing in front, he wasn't really needed.
Ronan felt a bit anxious. "Tobias, you handle it. You know I'm not good at these things."
Tobias took out his phone, seemingly indifferent. "The Livingston family wants to connect with you, not me. I wouldn't be a good host."
"Then let's do it together. You can remind me of what to pay attention to," Ronan said.
Tobias put away his phone. "We'll see. You know I mainly want to be with Holly this time."
"Tobias, didn't that beautiful woman say today that Holly has someone in her heart?" Ronan advised, "And since Mr. Livingston is coming, maybe you shouldn't give the gift. It's unnecessary."
Tobias looked at him. "I'm willing to do it. The Vanderbilt family's biological granddaughter has returned. Holly will feel awkward, and someone needs to be with her."
"You don't really believe what that con woman said, do you?" Tobias sighed deeply, "I didn't tell Grandpa today, but you should know that Grandpa has always respected Lowell. You spoke recklessly today for a con woman, and that's a big mistake."
Ronan held back and finally said, "Tobias, don't you really think that ever since Grandpa met Lowell, some of his decisions have become more and more muddled?"
Instantly, Tobias covered his mouth. "It's fine to say that in front of me, but don't say it to others."
Ronan understood and felt a bit stifled.
If he could, he increasingly didn't want to return to this family.
"Alright, if you're annoyed, go racing with someone. I knew Pentti returned to Zelphoria," Tobias said calmly, "The Vanderbilt family is really interesting. Holly was in Zelphoria for so many years, and Pentti never rushed back, always busy outside. Now that the new Ms. Vanderbilt is here, he's no longer busy."
"Tobias! Don't you think there's something wrong with what you just said?" Ronan usually wouldn't argue with Tobias, but today he was really impatient. "Holly is just a sponsored student of the Vanderbilt family. The returning Ms. Vanderbilt is their biological daughter! It has nothing to do with new or old!"
Tobias laughed. "Alright, I know you have a good relationship with Pentti, and you don't like hearing me speak ill of him."
"That's not the point!" Sometimes Ronan couldn't stand Tobias's self-righteousness. "Except for Mr. Vanderbilt's one-sided desire to adopt Holly, the rest of the family was against it. Pentti even had a falling out with you over this. You can't expect them to abandon their biological sister just because you like Holly. You're the one being unreasonable!"
Tobias clearly didn't expect such a strong reaction from Ronan and laughed. "What's wrong with you? I was just casually saying."
"Nothing." Ronan also felt a bit irritable. "I'll just go for a drive."
After saying that, he went to the garage and drove out his sports car.
With the night wind blowing, he finally felt better.
Once Ronan calmed down, the first thing he did was open the group chat to find people from the upper circle to hang out with.
But as soon as he entered, he saw people flattering Holly.
That was fine, but someone even sent: [Holly, don't worry. You know this upper circle isn't easy to get into, especially for someone from the countryside.]
Instantly, Ronan lost interest.
Someone mentioned him: [@Ronan, come on, we're just waiting for you. Let's bet big tonight!]
