Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love

Chapter 438: 441: Turbulent Undercurrents (1)

Today’s seating arrangement had already been prepared in advance.

At the first table, apart from reserving three seats for Aidan Lucas, Lily Gray, and Emily Taylor.

The other spots were taken up by the elders of the Lucas family.

Madam Lucas was still at the Azure Dragon Temple and didn’t attend this banquet.

The second table was arranged for the relatives of the Taylor and Gray families.

The Taylor family is Emily’s maiden family.

The Gray family is Lily’s maiden family.

Normally, this kind of arrangement would not be a problem.

The third table was mainly for friends who had a good relationship with Aidan Lucas and Lily Gray.

There were the second-generation members of a few wealthy families, Dylan Wellington, Joan Wellington, and Skye Brown.

And… a seat was reserved for David Redington.

Skye Brown stared at the gently smiling and elegant Rowena Gray and coldly said, “Of course there’s a problem.”

“Those three over there don’t deserve to be Lily’s maternal family at all.”

Madam Gray, who acted like a wise elder, and Milly Gray, pretending to be well-behaved and sensible.

Every time she looked at them, she felt disgusted.

“Who arranged the seating today? Does the Lucas family not know that the

Grays have already had a falling out with Lily?”

How Madam Gray had once looked down on Lily, how she had insulted her, and how she had driven her out of the house… Skye knew all about it from Lily.

Seeing these three malicious Gray family members now, appearing at the banquet as honored guests.

Skye was so furious that she wanted to go up and drive them away.

“Calm down, don’t be impulsive.”

Seeing the angry Skye, Dylan immediately pulled her into his arms, rubbing her head, “Don’t worry, it’s obvious that Aidan arranged it this way. He must have his own purpose for doing so. Just be patient, you’ll know once the banquet starts.”

If it were someone else, Dylan might not be so sure.

But if it’s Aidan Lucas, who is known for his deep thoughts and always protecting his wife.

It’s a ghost if he would let the people who offended his wife go easily.

Dylan was sure that since Aidan already knew about Lily’s unfriendly relationship with her family.

Now to arrange for the Grays to sit there, most likely there’re already some hidden schemes in place for retaliation.

Just as they were thinking about it, a waiter led two people to their table.

The man in front had a tall and slender figure.

From the moment he entered the banquet hall, he attracted attention from all the guests.

Especially the unmarried socialite ladies who, upon seeing his noble and handsome face and elegant demeanor, couldn’t help but be mesmerized.

The ordinary-looking man following behind him, however, went unnoticed.

David Redington brought his agent, Blake, and took his seat at the table with Dylan and the others.

Upon seeing David, Skye and Dylan instantly understood Aidan’s intention for inviting him.

Besides “asserting dominance” and “dealing with romantic rivals,” there’s basically no other meaning.

But just because Skye and Dylan knew that didn’t mean other guests did.

The news of David’s identity as a member of the Reddington family hadn’t spread in A City.

Some self-proclaimed high-society nobles, although they admired David’s appearance, were now purposely talking about David to show off their own elegance and extraordinary backgrounds.

Just like the conversation among the Taylors and Grays at the second table, which revolved around David Redington.

“David Redington… he’s just an actor. Why would Aidan invite him here and even let him sit at the third table!?”
