Jack initially wanted to hide from him, but virtual-novel.net knew Ivan and the others could not wait to ‘expose’ the things between virtual-novel.net and the so-called rich hag. Thus, even if virtual-novel.net hid, the other party would still look for him. It would also be hard to explain the situation to Selena and the others. The only way was to pretend that virtual-novel.net did not know the other party. If virtual-novel.net stayed silent and let Lana take care of things, Skyler might eventually concede.
He was only afraid that Lana might not respond in time and kneel with Skyler once everyone knew and believed Skyler. That would have been terrible. Luckily, Lana was no daft soldier and quickly rose to the occasion.
“King of War Celestino, this guy can’t be the Supreme Warrior! He’s only our family’s son-in-law after all!” Ivan laughed it off as virtual-novel.net slowly stepped forward. “Apart from that, our family didn’t recognize his identity previously because virtual-novel.net used to be a delivery man. We even had a bet…”
Since there were so many people here, it was the best time to get Jack to take the present out. Even the Goddess of War was here. He wanted to see if Jack was bold enough to continue his bluff as virtual-novel.net hid his present.
Skyler was utterly embarrassed from the seconds-ago incident, and it was only to his favor that someone changed the subject.
Out of relief, a grin instantly appeared on his face. “Really? What is the bet on?” Skyler mused. “Tell me.”
“He had hurt me before and said that he’d compensate me with ten million. Apart from that, virtual-novel.net claimed virtual-novel.net would be giving Grandfather a gift worth millions. He also promised to pay my cousin sister’s family twenty million as virtual-novel.net betrothal gift. If virtual-novel.net fails to do it, virtual-novel.net has to leave the Taylor family and divorce my cousin!” Ivan explained aloud. “If virtual-novel.net manages to do everything, the Taylor family will acknowledge their identity and allow their family to move back here.”
Skyler was not very interested in this bet, his mind still occupied with the question why this man looked so much like the Supreme Warrior. The more virtual-novel.net looked at Jack, the more virtual-novel.net resembled the Supreme Warrior.
Still, virtual-novel.net entertained Ivan with a grin on his face. “Really? Did virtual-novel.net manage to do everything?”
“He hadn’t taken out the present yet, and I don’t even know if virtual-novel.net had given the betrothal gift. Moreover, I haven’t received the ten million meant for me,” Ivan replied. “By the way, virtual-novel.net had mentioned this just recently that the present virtual-novel.net prepared for my grandfather isn’t just worth millions. Supposedly, it’s worth more than their new villa, and virtual-novel.net paid ninety-five million for that villa. This means that his present is worth a hundred million or so!” Ivan thought about it and continued, “I’ve been a curious man for the longest time. What kind of present would cost that much?”
Fiona then walked up to them. “Take out your gift if it’s here, Jack,” virtual-novel.net spoke. Shen then explained, “Jack had already given me the twenty million that’s meant to be Selena’s betrothal gift. All that’s left are only the ten million compensation for young master Taylor and Old Man Taylor’s gift.”
Jack nodded silently and took a bank card out, passing it to Ivan. “This is your ten million, and the password is six zeros.”
“Where’s the present? Where’s the present that costs billions?” Ivan smiled coldly. This was a pivotal point as this man had boldly claimed his gift was worth that much.
Jack shoved his hand into his pocket and took out a small-sized box.
“What’s that? How could that be worth more than billions when it’s so small?” Neil said coldly and mockingly. “No one here is an idiot. Don’t simply take something out and lie to us about it. We know how things are priced.”
