Chapter 253

Cedric always had a bone to pick with his good–for–nothing” younger brother, Jason.

He felt Jason spent his days catering to women, fetching their shoes and massaging their feet, like some kind of butler. With no ambition, there was nothing remarkable about him! But who would have thought that Emeric, a prominent figure in Skyrim and a top–tier tycoon, would openly declare Jason as his godson? It was an Indirect way of showing his support for Jason.

What added insult to injury was Emeric’s lavish praise for Jason in front of everyone.

Was he trying to subtly mock Cedric through Jason?

The Ashbourne siblings wore varying expressions. Evadne’s lips curled into a smirk, barely suppressing her laughter.

Emeric, true to form, was scheming as ever.

Cedric must not have imagined his evening would turn into a veritable lion’s den.

“Mr. Emeric, you’re too kind to my boy!”

Mr. and Mrs. Dempsey were flabbergasted. Dave felt a mix of shock and happiness, but still tried to demur.

Jason isn’t worthy to be your godson! It’s inappropriate! Let him just keep working at the company. We don’t dare to ask for more!” “We’ve known each other for years. I wouldn’t lie to you. If Jason weren’t a good kid, I wouldn’t have chosen him. You agree, right?” Emeric’s praise for Jason was a slap in Cedric’s face.
