Chapter 2149 Death Upon the Banes

Sure enough, Matthew, who sat at the main table, could see everything that happened at the banquet very clearly.

His mind was full of doubts when he noticed Marissa's displeased gaze. Have I done something wrong?

Toast after toast, every guest present wished Marissa a happy birthday. At the same time, many insincerely congratulated Old Mr. Bane for his success in gaining an outstanding disciple.

They had no choice in the matter. It didn't matter whether their hearts were filled with jealousy and reluctance or not. If they did not congratulate him, it would mean that they were mocking Old Mr. Bane for selecting the wrong disciple.

Halfway through the banquet, the other great forces also sent a representative to deliver their birthday gifts and wishes to Marissa.

The banquet slowly came to an end. So, the guests left the venue, one after another.

As for the whole Roxanne incident... None dared to bring up the topic of the marriage proposal. They were well aware of the final answer just based on Old Mr. Bane and Roxanne's attitudes toward this topic. Therefore, why should they get themselves into hot water when they were well aware that the situation would backfire on them once they infuriated Old Mr. Bane?

Yet, toward the end of the banquet, Albert suddenly brought in two mysterious-looking gift boxes and handed them to Old Mr. Bane, informing him that they were gifts from a stranger.

Old Mr. Bane opened the boxes doubtfully. Then, he caught sight of a longevity peach, which had been gnawed out by worms, on the left side of the gift box.
