Hank spoke in a high and mighty tone like he was giving orders,

Tiffany smiled lightly. "I do. Of course, I do."

Hank meant that she was not worthy of Richard, nor did she have the right to be the hostess of the Hampton family. Therefore, she should know her place and take the initiative to get lost.

Since she was quite obedient, Hank's brows relaxed and he was quite satisfied. "If that's the case, then..."

In the end, he was interrupted by Tiffany before he could finish telling her to leave. "But I didn't say I was going to agree."

Hank was stunned and his face darkened. "What did you say?"

Tiffany replied unhurriedly, "What makes you think that an order from you can influence my decision?"

Tiffany in front of him was still polite and respectful.

However, Hank found it infuriating.

Hank was almost infuriated. "How dare you!"

He slammed his hand down on the table, making the coffee mug clink.

The servants and butler, Don, trembled.

The entire luxurious and ancient hall was filled with a heavy and oppressive atmosphere.

The atmosphere was heavy, and everyone felt insecure.

Kenneth's heart skipped a beat. He looked at Tiffany nervously, afraid that she would say something to offend Hank again. He quickly diverted Hank's attention by saying, "Grandpa, didn't you say that you wanted to fish just now? Shall I go with you?" "Shut up!" In his rage, Hank took his anger out on Kenneth as well. "She used to be your fiancee. Even you abandoned her, so how can she be worthy of your uncle? A woman like her can't marry into my Hampton family!"

Just as Hank finished speaking, Richard's terrifyingly gloomy voice suddenly sounded. "That's none of your business."

Outside the ancient-looking courtyard, Richard's tall figure walked over against the light.

Richard's brows were covered in gloom. His handsome face was gloomy and cool, and there was obvious anger in his eyes. Ignoring Hank sitting in the main seat, he walked straight to Tiffany and asked with a frown, "Are you hurt?"

Tiffany shook her head. "No."

No matter how much Hank hated her, he would not really do anything to her.

After a pause, Tiffany told the truth. "I angered Mr. Hank Harper"

"I see." Richard didn't take it seriously. "That's fine."

Hearing this, Hank was even more furious. "Bastard, do you think so little of me?"

He slammed the table so hard that it shook.

Hank's expression was gloomy. His sharp eyes were like those of eagles, fierce and terrifying.

Richard shielded Tiffany behind him and replied indifferently, "You should be happy that I'm getting married. Also, don't be so fierce. Can't you see that my wife is frightened by you?" Speechless, Hank was infuriated.

He looked at Tiffany, who blinked her eyes and looked calm and innocent. She didn't have the slightest fear of being frightened by him.

If Hank could really scare her, she would have cried when he said that she was not worthy of being the hostess of the Hampton family.

Hank was furious. He could not help but ask, "Richard, are you serious?"

Richard said, "Of course."

Hank said, "But you clearly know that next month, the Azure Sea Royal Family will..."

"Enough." Richard interrupted Hank. His voice turned gloomy. "I don't care what you want to do, but at the same time, you have no right to interfere in what I do. I won't pursue what happened today, but this definitely can't happen again." Richard finished with a darkened expression and was about to leave with Tiffany in his arms.

In the pearwood chair aside, Kenneth watched all of this as a wave of bitterness spread in his heart.

From the beginning to the end, Kenneth had indifferently watched her suffer all kinds of ridicule and grievances.

He had left Tiffany alone and helpless, and he had never said anything to defend her.

However, today, Richard doted on her as if his life depended on it. Even when facing Hank, he did not give in. He could not bear to let Tiffany suffer even the slightest grievance.

As Kenneth compared himself to Richard, he found that he was indeed an asshole.

Kenneth smiled bitterly with a lump in his throat.

Don immediately instructed the servants to call the family doctor. When he turned around and saw that Tiffany was pinching Hank's philtrum, he was anxious and angry. He tried to chase her away and said, "Miss Kelley, please don't cause trouble. Leave now!" Unexpectedly, after saying this, he felt a chill on his back.

Richard glared at him and said in a shockingly gloomy voice, "Get lost."

Don instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

He had almost forgotten that Tiffany's current identity was not only the second daughter of the Kelley family whose identity was still in doubt, but also Richard's fiancee, the soon-to-be hostess of the Hampton family.

If not for the fact that Don had been Hank's servant for decades, he would have been kicked out since he dared to disrespect Tiffany.

Don felt a lingering fear and did not dare to stop Tiffany again. He could only hope that the family doctor would hurry over.All content is property © .

At this moment, Hank, whose philtrum had been pinched by Tiffany a few times, coughed violently and slowly woke up.

"Mr. Hank Hampton, are you alright?" Don was surprised and delighted. He never expected that Tiffany's seemingly playful actions would really save Hank from fainting.

"You're getting on in years. Don't get angry so easily. Getting angry will hurt your liver." Tiffany gave a few reminders before leaving. "Let's go."

Richard held Tiffany's hand again. The two of them turned around and were about to leave when they heard Hank sigh as if he had resigned himself to fate.

Hank said, "Today is the family banquet. Stay for dinner. Richard, you haven't been back for a long time."

The generation gap between Hank and Richard was too huge since Richard was born in Hank's old age. They often could not get along.

It was rare for them to be able to sit down for a meal harmoniously.

Richard stopped in his tracks. He was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he turned to look at Tiffany, asking for her opinion.

Tiffany nodded and said with a smile, "I heard that the chefs of the Hampton Manor are very good at cooking. I want to try their cooking."

These words were very pleasing to the ear.

Hank could not help but take another look at Tiffany.

She was giving him a way out.

Just like that, Tiffany and Richard stayed.

Since it was a family banquet, the family gathered together naturally.

Not long after, Hank's other sons also came. Along with them were Hank's married daughters, such as Felicia. The other juniors were Hank's grandsons and granddaughters.

With so many people coming, the originally quiet and elegant Hampton Manor instantly became lively.

As the only outsider at this family banquet, Tiffany could clearly feel the gazes from all directions on her

She turned around and saw that the person who was staring at her the most blatantly was the Hampton family's eldest grandson, Riley Hampton, who had always been an unruly womanizer.
