Chapter 2142 Announcing the Gifts

Actually, Old Mrs. Bane didn't really like Matthew, and she even found him a little distasteful. In her opinion, Matthew probably planned the whole thing. He probably deliberately hurt Anthony's arm just so that he could treat it with his superior medical skills.

By doing this, not only would Anthony feel guilty, but he would also develop a liking for him. He's so skilled at playing 'carrot after stick' that nobody noticed anything amiss. He's still so young yet he's already so cunning. No wonder Roxanne is completely under his spell and he's on her mind all the time. Meanwhile, he couldn't be bothered to waste a second toward the other regular members of the Bane Family. When she considered all these factors, she reckoned that Matthew was purposely trying to get into the good books of the Bane Family's main family. He probably figured that he would use the Banes as a stepping stone to expand his influence by leeching onto them since they were a powerful family.

At the other side of the party, everyone was already waiting in excitement. So, when Old Mrs. Bane appeared, they all stood up to welcome her.

Born in one of the top ten families in the country, Old Mrs. Bane was from the Harding Family and her maiden name was Marissa Harding. Her family had invested in the Martial League since she was young and had countless disciples within the organization. Over the years, many of those disciples were now important and influential figures in the Martial League.

Once she was seated in the center seat, everyone immediately started giving her birthday wishes on behalf of the group they represented. "Happy Birthday, Old Mrs. Bane! We wish you a long, healthy life!" Marissa answered them happily, "Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend my birthday party. I'm deeply honored by your presence. Please be at ease and take your seats." After that, everyone took their seats, and it was time for an important part of the banquet-revealing the gifts.
