Chapter 149

Darius had a stoic expression on his face as he stared at the man seated beside the table filled with delicacies, and although he couldn‘t look at his grandfather‘s expression now, he could guess that he had the same stoic expression. Maxwell Finn was relatively handsome, and although he was old now, Darius could tell that he was a playboy in his younger days, and it wasn‘t hard to tell where Michael Finn got his impressive looks from.

He had thought that after the pleasant meal, he would take charge of the conversation and ease into the reason he invited them out, but he seemed he had underestimated Darius‘ grandfather. With just a single compliment, he had seized control of the conversation, and he was now on the back foot. This development had inevitably made things more difficult than he expected.
