However, before Alex replied, his phone rang suddenly, catching everyone's attention. He glanced at the screen and moved to a corner to take the call.

A few others glanced over, and one burst into laughter.

"You guys won't believe this," someone said, chuckling. "That dude's trying to scam all of us. Guess who just called him? Alfred Kingston! Can you believe that?"

"For real? He went that far? Thank God we know he's just a king of scum.".

Alex answered the call, his voice low and serious."

"I'm sorry to disturb you, young master. My daughter's condition suddenly worsened," Alfred Kingston's desperate voice came through the speaker.

"I don't know what else to do except to ask for your help," the voice continued, trembling with worry.

"Pick me up. I'm at the Noble Knight Club."

"Yes, sure! Thank you very much, young master. I really appreciate your kindness.

I'll send someone to pick you up right now."

Alex ended the call and turned to Michelle.

"I'm sorry, but I have to decline your invitation for dinner. There's an urgent matter I need to attend to."

Someone chimed in with a mocking tone, "Sure, Alfred Kingston called you, right? Off to your private banquet?"

Everyone erupted in laughter.
