His Lordship Alexander Kane by Useless Caesar

Chapter 0027

Everyone–including Donovan and Zoe–was baffled at how Bruno repeatedly addressed Patrick by his name. They all struggled to keep up with the situation. What in the world was happening? Why did this unfold in such a confusing manner?

Not only did Bruno offer Patrick a VIP card and treat him like an old friend, but he even offered to increase the investment just to please Patrick?

After all, everyone knew Donovan had kicked Patrick out of the Chesire family, leaving him penniless. Moreover, he had no sons, only a mute daughter and a useless son–in–law who just completed his military service.

Just before this, Patrick was also on the verge of losing his job. How could he possibly garner such favor from Bruno?
