“It’s really none of your business.Stop sticking your nose in other people’s business!”
Kaya’s words were harsh but Natalie knew it wasn’t the right time to argue with her.
She planned on getting rid of Kaya away as soon as possible, But how could Kaya let go of Natalie so easily? Kaya still held a deep-seated grudge against her.
How could she let go of such a great opportunity to get back at Natalie now?
“Hey, don’t leave now! I’m right, aren’t I?”
‘It’s apparent that you don’t in fact live a good life, Natalie,” Kaya said, continuing to pester her and grabbing her wrist to stop her from leaving.
Meanwhile, several well-dressed playboys still surrounded Sebastian and mocked him ruthlessly.
One insult after another flowed freely.
Suddenly, a passing guest accidentally broke a bottle of La Romanée-Conti wine.
The guest looked around and ordered, “Waiter, have this cleaned up.”
Ritchie shoved Sebastian aggressively and said, “Are you deaf or something? He told you to clean up, waiter!”
Sebastian shot a frigid glance at Ritchie.
His sharp and threatening look made all the young men around shudder.
Another person stepped forward to diffuse the situation.
In a persuasive voice, he said, “Mr.Klein, let this go.”
After all, the blood of the Klein family ran through Sebastian’s veins.
Although he was well aware that Sebastian was an illegitimate child, how could they let him work as a lowly servant? Ritchie turned a deaf ear to the persuasive words and remarked with a wry smirk, “The work Sebastian does on a regular basis is quite similar to this in any case.I heard that his job was unloading goods in a convenience store.That’s right! Sebastian is well suited for this kind of cheap, physical labor.”
“Hahaha, Ritchie has hit the nail on the head! He calls a spade a spade!” the others echoed and burst into laughter with renewed vigor.
When Ritchie noticed that Sebastian didn’t move, he pushed him roughly on the shoulder and shouted, “Hey! Sebastian, I ordered you to clean this mess up.Are you really ignoring my instruction?”
Just then, an old man donned in a tunic came over with his walking stick in hand.
With a cough, he said, “Excuse me, boys.Please give way for me to pass.I have to go to the bathroom.”
Ritchie was overcome by rage because someone had the audacity to interrupt him.
He turned his head with a dark, forbidding expression on his face, and was astounded to see that it was none other than Curt
Benton who had the gall to interrupt him.
Curt was a distinguished guest invited by the Klein family.
He was a key person in the business circle.
After a momentary pause, Ritchie nodded respectfully, and said to the others, “Make way for Mr.Benton.And who put this couch right here to block the way? Move it this instant.”
Everyone made way for Curt.
“This way, Mr.Benton,” Ritchie said.
It was clear that he wanted to assist Curt.
Curt, however, managed to dodge his help at the right moment.
He threw a cursory glance of displeasure in Ritchie’s direction and said, “Thank you, Mr.Klein.But you are the noble young master from a strong family.How can I bother you?”
The color drained from Ritchie’s face and he looked frighteningly furious.

The business area into which the Klein family had recently decided they wanted to expand fell under the jurisdiction of Curt.
The reason they had specifically invited Curt this time was not only because they wanted to celebrate Nora’s birthday but also because they wanted to obtain cooperation with Curt.
Accordingly, they couldn’t afford to offend Curt the slightest bit.
Ritchie could clearly hear the sarcastic undertone in Curt’s comment but all he could do was bottle up his anger. He nodded and bowed reverentially. He looked at the huge pool of red wine before him and impatiently clicked his tongue at Ethan. “Ethan, do you want me to teach you a lesson before you clean up this mess?”
Ritchie’s loud tone attracted Curt’s attention.
Sebastian? Curt turned to look at the tall, well-postured man who Ritchie had addressed and was dumbstruck.
He then smiled at Sebastian and said, “You brat, what are you doing here?”
Sebastian had met Curt Benton on a hike five years ago.
At the time, Curt had a sudden stroke halfway up the mountain, and it was Sebastian who carried him down the trail and drove him to the nearest hospital.
Since then, the two had kept in touch, and soon realized that they had a lot in common.
Needless to say, they had become very good friends.
Curt was also among the few who knew Sebastian’s real identity as Brandon Larson.
He had been doing business for decades, after all, and was quite well-informed about the business of his peers, both public and private.
Sebastian reached out and shook hands with his old friend.
“I’m here for my grandmother’s birthday party.” He winked at Curt then, silently telling the latter not to say anything regarding
Brandon Larson.
Being a shrewd man, Curt instantly understood the subtle message.
He refrained from asking more questions and just said, “I haven’t seen you for a long time, you brat!”
He hobbled closer to Sebastian and glanced at the wine spilled on the floor.
“Find a servant to clean this up, or it might ruin Mr.Klein’s shoes.”
Curt’s assistant nodded and waved a staff over to relay the instructions
“Now,” Curt said, turning to Sebastian.
“Let’s go and talk about the good old days. You brat, did you ever realize we haven’t spoken in over half a year? Are you avoiding me because I’m He winked at Curt then, silently telling the latter not to say anything regarding Brandon Larson.

“Now,” Curt said, tuming to Sebastian.
“Let’s go and talk about the good old days. You brat, did you ever realize we haven’t spoken in over half a year? Are you avoiding me because I’m too old to be doing what you cool young ones are into these days? Anyway, do you remember those stocks that you said had huge potential? Well, I bought a bunch and ended up making a tot of profit.”
The man who was always aloof and distant to others was now gushing like a teenager.
