Chapter 813
"Enough with the nonsense! Get out of here now! The both of you! And stay far away so you don't bring shame to the Yeager family!" Damien barked harshly.
"The Yeager family is about to soar to new heights and is destined to rival the most powerful families. Meanwhile, you two will be stuck struggling in poverty for the rest of your lives. You'll never step through the Yeager family gates again.
"Trying to crawl back now? Too late. Get lost!"
Patricia opened her mouth to plead, but Dustin stopped her.
"Damien, I hope you remember every word you just said," Dustin said coldly.
"Oh, I'll remember. What are you trying to say? That I'll beg you to come back to the Yeager family someday? Dream on!
"Now, get out!"
He stepped forward and was ready to throw them out.
"What's going on here?" a voice interrupted suddenly.
The crowd parted to make way for the newcomer.
"That's Adrian! The general manager of Duscia Corporation!" someone whispered as they recognized him.
"So young, too! I heard he's the heir to the Pierce family. It is one of the wealthiest families in Summerdale. Now, that's a real big shot."
"Adrian personally attending the Yeager family's birthday celebration? Duscia Corporation does respect them, huh?"
As the murmurs spread, Adrian walked straight up to Dustin and Patricia.
"Mr. Pierce, welcome! Apologies for the poor reception. I was just dealing with some pests," Wayne said as he immediately adopted a flattering demeanor. "Pests? They're not pests. They're people," Adrian said with a dark face.
"I heard they're from the Yeager family, too. What's the harm in letting them in? They just want to wish someone a happy birthday, not burn the place down." "I..." Wayne hesitated.
He was confused as to why Adrian was stepping in for these two.
Kendall was watching from a distance, and he frowned in confusion.
What game was Adrian playing?
"Since Mr. Pierce is speaking up for you, I'll give him this courtesy. You may go in," Damien finally said with a cold snort.
"Thank you, Mr. Pierce." Patricia thanked Adrian.
Dustin remained silent.
With no one blocking their way, the couple finally stepped through the Yeager family villa's gates.
Though clearly displeased, Damien did not dare defy Adrian.
Adrian's appearance drew members of various prominent families to rush over and greet him. They- showered him with flattery. No one paid any more attention to Dustin and Patricia.
Inside the villa, Patricia took in the familiar sight with mixed emotions.noveldrama
After all, she had lived here for nearly twenty years.
Dustin gently took her hand and gave it a reassuring pat.
"Don't worry. If you want to come back here in the future, no one will stop you.
They may even beg you to return," Dustin said.
"That's impossible. I'd be lucky if they let me visit Morgan and great-grandfather
from time to time," Patricia said with a sad smile.
"Patricia!" A girl called out urgently as she ran over.
It was Morgan, the only cousin in the family who was close to Patricia.
"Morgan!" Patricia was excited to see her.
Morgan nearly cried as she rushed over to Patricia.
"Patricia, you're finally back! I ran out the moment I heard someone say you were
here. How have you been these days?"
"I've been doing well. Don't worry about me," Patricia said with a smile.
"Hmph!" Morgan's face darkened as she glared at Dustin with hatred.
"Dustin, you jerk! Why did you ruin Patricia's life?
"You made her homeless, drove a wedge between her and the Yeager family, and dragged her into a life of poverty..."
"I won't let her down," Dustin said.
"Won't let her down? Look at her! What have you ever done for her? What can you possibly offer her?
"If I had been here that night, I would never have let you take her away!"
That night, Morgan had been out with some people looking for the "shopping mall flying man" that she admired.
She only found out about everything
when she returned. She had been trying to go out and find Patricia, but
she had been placed on house
arrest. Today was the first time she had seen her since.
"Morgan, I'm happy living outside the Yeager family. I'm much happier now than I
ever was here," said Patricia reassuringly as she held her hand.
"Really?" Morgan was not convinced.
How could anyone be happy living in poverty with a fool?
But the truth was that Patricia had never been happy in the Yeager family.
Morgan was about to scold Dustin again, but Patricia stopped her.
"I'll take you inside,” said Morgan and offered to take them to the birthday banquet venue herself as she
as worried that other Yeager
family members might give them a hard time.
