"Yes, I'm back!"

Fjordic Provost's tone was still warm.

Paloma Provost, however, had a frosty face and said nothing!

Fjordic Provost's expression slowly turned cold.

He discovered that there was something between him and Paloma Provost

It's collapsing!

really

Times have changed!

Things are different and people are different!

"It turns out to be Fjordic Provost! Why is he back?"

"If you don't come sooner, you won't come later, but now it comes at this moment!"

"that is……"

A group of relatives said one after another.

Back then, when Fjordic Provost's Fjordic Group was at its peak, these relatives came to him to borrow money every now and then. He always refused to accept anyone who came!

did not expect

Return today

None of these relatives stood up to say hello to him!

My sister-in-law simply said: "Paloma Yanzi, you are serious, how can you let Fjordic Provost come here? You don't even wink at all!"

"You should have been hiding quietly at home when you came out, but you came here on purpose! You clearly want to ruin Paloma's good deeds!"

"He thought he was engaged to Paloma back then and wanted Paloma to continue marrying him? He's not even worthy of carrying Everett Welch shoes! How could Paloma marry him again!"

Relatives said with disdain.

"I... originally wanted him to go home, but his dad..."

Mother Linnet also looked at Edmund Provost with a gloomy face and said.

"Shut up!"

Edmund Provost shouted in a deep voice: "Fjordic is originally from our family, why can't he come here? Now that he is back, the Paloma matter... we have to discuss it again!"

"dad!"

Paloma Provost on the side immediately shouted when she saw that her father actually wanted to renew the engagement.

Although back then, she had longed for a happy future with Fjordic Provost countless times...

But now, how could she marry a fraudster who had been in prison? !

"you……"

Edmund Provost looked at his daughter's cold face, sighed and stopped talking.

"Fjordic Provost..."

Paloma Provost looked at Fjordic Provost coldly and said.

"Why...can't you even say "big brother"?"

Fjordic Provost sighed lightly.

The Paloma Provost in front of him seemed to make him...

I don’t recognize him at all!

"You don't deserve me to call you big brother!"

Paloma Provost said coldly.

Ever since she was little, this eldest brother has been her pride!

It's her hope!

It's everything to her! However, five years ago, this eldest brother

It became his shame!

His nightmare!

Extreme love breeds hatred, extreme hatred leads to the end, that once passionate love...

It has long since turned into cold ashes!

"What happened back then..."

"Don't mention what happened back then to me again!"

Paloma Provost interrupted Fjordic Provost and said solemnly: "Do you know how we got here in the past five years?"

"Do you know that just because of you, my parents can't hold their heads up no matter where they go! And I am often laughed at in school!"

"Those people who were defrauded of their money come to our house every two days to collect debts. We are living like a year!"

Paloma Provost lost control of her emotions.

"I know you have suffered a lot of grievances. I have been thinking about you every day for the five years I have been outside!"

Fjordic Provost sighed: "When I come back this time, I will let my parents spend their old age peacefully and make up for the harm I caused them!"

"As for you, if you are willing..."

"Shut up!"

Paloma Provost interrupted Fjordic Provost again: "Although, my father made an engagement for you and me since we were young!"

"But, to this day, I ask you to respect yourself! Don't talk about this matter again!"

"All right!"

Fjordic Provost sighed, he originally wanted to say that if Paloma Provost was willing, she could go wherever she wanted and do whatever she wanted!

With his current status as a first-rank Zhuguo!

This is just a matter of words!

Unexpectedly, Paloma Provost mistakenly thought that she wanted to mention the engagement back then!

Five years of iron-blooded battles have long made Fjordic Provost heart as iron and his mind as steel!

He only has a family affection for Paloma Provost!

A big brother's responsibility!

He originally wanted to come back this time to make up for the shortcomings of the past five years and make his parents and sister proud of him again!

Unexpectedly, time has passed and no one except my father still remembers the friendship back then!

"As long as you still have some conscience, you should quickly find a job to make money and put that

Return the stolen money to others, and don’t let your parents worry anymore! "

Paloma Provost said coldly.

"Don't worry! Now that I'm back, I will handle everything!"

Fjordic Provost said in a deep voice:

"I won't let my parents suffer any more injustice! I won't mention the engagement between you and me again!"

"Okay! I hope you keep your word!"

Paloma Provost crossed her arms, sat back on the chair, and looked away indifferently!

But Everett Welch , who was sitting next to Paloma Provost , had a hint of sinisterness in his eyes!

However, he asked politely: "Paloma, this...is your eldest brother Fjordic Provost?"

"Yes, he... just came out."

Paloma Provost said embarrassedly.

He has been dating Everett Welch for some time, but she has always been too shy to talk to her eldest brother Fjordic Provost!

"It's okay, I've heard about him!"

Everett Welch smiled magnanimously: "Since he's out, he's fine!"

"Everett! It's great that you don't care about Fjordic Provost!"

"You are really a rich man! Don't worry, Fjordic Provost's matter will not affect you and Paloma!"

"Yes, Fjordic Provost also said just now that he won't mention the engagement anymore, so you don't have to worry about him anymore!"

When a group of relatives saw that Everett Welch didn't care about Fjordic Provost imprisonment, they all praised him.

They are still waiting to take advantage of Everett Welch!

"Fjordic Provost! Come here, let me introduce you!"

My sister-in-law quickly stood up and said, "This is Everett Welch, the eldest son of the Welch family in Jiangcheng, the deputy general manager of Wanjia Company, and the most famous son in Jiangcheng!"

"Thank you! No prize! It's just some false reputation!"

Everett Welch nodded and smiled, looking low-key like a superior.

"Hello!"

Fjordic Provost took the initiative to reach out his hand.

With his current status, there are only one or two people in Jiang Cheng who are worthy of shaking hands with him!

How could a mere Everett Welch be worthy of his reaching out?

However, since my younger sister Paloma Provost and Everett Welch are already engaged...

This Everett Welch is his brother-in-law!

They will be his family in the future!

Only family,

It's worth him reaching out!

Unexpectedly, Everett Welch hesitated for a moment and said with an embarrassed smile:

"I'm sorry... I'm not in the habit of shaking hands with people, don't take it off me!"

"..."

The air in the box was dead silent once again!

The relatives all looked at each other.

Refusing to shake hands is the most rude insult!

However, the person being insulted was Fjordic Provost, which made them feel a little gloating.

"It doesn't matter!"

The cold light in Fjordic Provost eyes disappeared in a flash, and he calmly withdrew his hand.

"As soon as I came out of a place like that, I went straight to shake hands with Everett, and I wasn't afraid that they would think they were dirty!"

"Yeah, I don't want to think about who I am!"

"There is no discernible value..."

All the relatives looked at Fjordic Provost with disdain.

"Okay, stop talking! Let's sit down and eat!"

Edmund Provost said: "Fjordic, you have to have a few drinks with me today!"

"good!"

Fjordic Provost sat next to his father. His father had no other hobbies but just drank a few cups.

"Uncle, I heard from Paloma that you like to drink, so I specially prepared a bottle of foreign wine for you today!"

Everett Welch smiled.

"Foreign wine?"

Edmund Provost frowned slightly.

Everett Welch waved his hand, and the servant behind him carefully brought over a purple box and opened it.

In the box, lying on the golden satin, is a bottle of amber foreign wine!

The bottle stoppers next to them are all made of silver crowns!

The bottle material is also made of crystal, crystal clear!

There are also exquisite patterns carved on it!

"Wow!"

"This foreign wine is so high-end! The bottle alone is worth a lot of money!"

"Isn't this the legendary XO?"

Relatives were shocked!

"This bottle of wine is much more advanced than XO. It is Hennessy level and has been stored in oak barrels for at least 50 years!"

Everett Welch frowned slightly, with disdain and disgust in his eyes.

The most expensive wine these poor people have ever heard of is probably XO!

If it weren't for helping that person complete his plan, how could he be wasting time with this group of poor guys who have never seen the world!

"It's more expensive than XO, so it must be worth a lot of money, right?" My sister-in-law asked in surprise.

"I don't have much money, just around 100,000 yuan!"

Everett Welch said calmly: "However, there are only a few hundred bottles of this kind of wine in the world, so you can't buy it if you have money!"

"Wow! Then we are in for a treat today!"

"This is all because of Everett!"

"yes……"

The relatives swallowed their saliva with excitement.

"Come on! Open this bottle of Hennessy and let everyone try it!"

Everett Welch said condescendingly, as if he was giving alms to a bunch of beggars!

The servant opened Hennessy and poured everyone a glass.

"Thank you all for coming to my engagement ceremony with Paloma, cheers!"

Everett Welch smiled gently and elegantly.

"cheers!"

Everyone raised their glasses.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! This wine is so exciting!"

"If you take this bite, it will cost you several thousand!"

"That's not..."

Relatives were full of praise.

"Fjordic Provost, how do you like this wine?"

Everett Welch looked at Fjordic Provost and smiled.

Since Paloma Provost refused to call Fjordic Provost brother, he would call him by his first name!

"Hmm... maybe your wine, box and bottle are all real!"

Fjordic Provost frowned slightly.

"What? You mean, this wine is fake?"

No one believed what Fjordic Provost said.

"Really Hennessy, with mellow, floral, fruity, and oaky aromas integrated into one. This bottle of wine you have hasn't reached that level yet. It's just an ordinary XO at best."

Fjordic Provost said calmly.

"Really? Then let's have another drink and try it!"

Everett Welch sneered: "However, since Fjordic Provost thinks this wine is fake, don't pour it for him!"

The servants poured wine for everyone except Fjordic Provost.

"Everett! You are so disrespectful!"

Edmund Provost said coldly.

At the wine table, if you don’t pour wine for others, it’s not an insult.

But a naked provocation!

"It's okay, Dad, I'll bring you a bottle of wine when I come back this time!"

Fjordic Provost said calmly.

"You brought wine too? Could it be Erguotou?" said my sister-in-law.
