Chapter 164 In the world of the elite, the Hawke family wasn't exactly at the top of the pyramid. Yet, in recent years, they'd mastered the art of marketing.

Ever since they hit the jackpot with the "sibling darling" narrative, they'd been riding that wave, pushing the skills of the four Hawke brothers to a level that didn't quite match reality. Sure, they were impressive among ordinary folks, but in the grand scheme, it was all a bit overblown.

Jasper, on the other hand, hailed from genuine high society, his status and influence far surpassing that of the Hawke family. His perspective was naturally different from the average person. Among the members of the Virell's estate, there was a distinct disdain for such unconventional tactics.

"But I heard that the Hawke family has a branch overseas. Do you know anything about that?" Miranda shook her head. "Not really."

The old Miranda really hadn't heard of it.

Jasper addressed while driving, "I just heard some chatter. Apparently, Alden was kicked out by the family abroad and only managed to get to where he is now by leveraging some leftover assets in Wye. But, you know, rumors are just rumors, the truth still needs be verified."

Miranda wasn't really up to speed on the Hawke family's rise to fame. However, if there was a branch overseas that hadn't been in touch for years, it likely meant they had written off Alden long ago. Clearly, something had happened that made Alden hesitant to contact his overseas family.

Their conversation carried them to their destination. Jasper dashed around to open the door for Miranda with a practiced chivalry that hinted at experience.
