Chapter 108 All They Have Is Money

Jenny begged to differ. In her opinion, it was uncharacteristic of Alec to give up love for an arranged marriage. He must have had feelings for Yvonne, but whether or not he loved her was a secret only he knew. Anyway, Jenny didn’t bother to reveal her thoughts to Morgan since they were just assumptions.

They stopped talking when the event started. Old Mr. Faust appeared in the hall and was receiving well wishes from the guests, but Jenny and Morgan were not in a hurry to meet him. Morgan marveled, “The Fausts are truly the elite family of Parrington. No one could beat them when it comes to the scale of their

events..”

“Why? Are you envious?” Jenny chuckled and said, “Tell your parents to keep it up. Maybe you could enjoy all these riches someday.”

“That’s impossible.” Morgan was sensible. “Jenny, when are we giving out the presents?” She noticed that everyone was giving Old Mr. Faust his birthday presents, both to wish him personally and to get acquainted. The Goldings also planned to do so.

When the crowd around Old Mr. Faust dispersed, Jenny suggested, “Let’s go now.”

“Okay.” Morgan nodded with a smile and walked beside her. She always followed Jenny around because Jenny gave her a sense of comfort and security.

The two ladies attracted attention when they showed up, especially Jenny. Everyone was curious about her after knowing she was Max’s plus one.

“Grandpa, I wish you a very happy birthday. May health and happiness be with you,” Yvonne spoke. Standing beside Alec, she handed Zachary Faust a birthday gift. The old man accepted it cheerfully and beamed at her warmly. “I’m just happy to have you here. You don’t even need to bring a gift-we’re family!”
