The Man’s Decree Novel Chapter 86“Kai, is that true?” Gary glared coldly at Kai.
“Dad, I was…”
“Shut your mouth!” Gary cut Kai off. “Yes, we’re poor. But we could still afford to buy others a meal! You
have a job now because others have helped you. Show some gratitude and respect to the tradition of
others, will you?” Gary didn’t give Kai a chance to explain himself.
“Squad Leader, Kai did it to save money! It’s no big deal. We shall congratulate Kai with dinner tonight!”
Franklin eased the tension to avoid an awkward dinner.
“Mr. Saunders, actually Maria and I don’t mind if he doesn’t buy us dinner. It’s just that if he did, the
staff would be more welcoming toward him.” With that, Zayne had again emphasized Kai’s pettiness.
“I agree. This is Kai’s fault. I’ll get him to honor the tradition by tomorrow,” Gray responded
apologetically.
novelbin“Actually, we don’t have to wait till tomorrow. After dinner, I’ll inform the staff and arrange a karaoke
session. As long as Kai is willing to pay, I’m sure the others would be grateful,” Zayne suggested.
“That’ll do!” Gary nodded.
“Zayne, Mr. Chance’s family isn’t that well-off. Don’t impose too much on Kai,” Franklin advised.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Saunders. Three hundred would be more than enough.” A smile flashed across
Zayne’s face.
“Franklin, is this Maria’s boyfriend? Not only is he handsome, but he can handle things very well!” Gary
complimented Zayne.“Indeed! He had even gotten back the money for my company because he’s an acquaintance of
Tommy Lewis, the underground king of Horington. With just an order, I’ve gotten all my money back!”
Franklin couldn’t hide his contentment as he was very satisfied with his future son-in-law.
Upon hearing that, Kai was stunned. Since when did Zayne have anything to do with that? I did all the
work, but he got the recognition instead?
“Tommy?” Gary paused and continued, “Isn’t he the infamous gangster in Horington? It’s better to avoid
these people. Although they seem to do good now, it’s just a matter of time before they’re dealt with by
law enforcement.”
Having worked as a government servant, it was only natural that Gary had bad impressions toward
outlaws.
“Mr. Chance, you’re mistaken! It’s an honor to have a relationship with Mr. Lewis, especially in
Horington. How could you slander him? In fact, someone as insignificant as your son would never be a
friend of the famous Mr. Lewis. You should refrain from talking in such a way. Otherwise, troubles may
come to you one day.” Zayne was angered by Gary’s statement.
In response, Gary kept silent.
“He has a point, Squad Leader. Time has changed. We need these people nowadays,” Franklin said
placidly.
Still, Gary kept his mouth shut. No one could change his perception toward outlaws such as Tommy.
That was one of the reasons why Kai never revealed to his parents his relationship with Tommy. If my
parents knew about Tommy and me, they might even disown me!
At the dining table, Zayne was indulging in alcohol while receiving praises from everyone.However, Kai had not taken a sip. Zayne wasn’t happy with the fact that Kai had not offered him a
toast.
“Kai, why aren’t you drinking? You’re being such a wimp!” Zayne teased.
“It’s not that I can’t drink. I just don’t think it’s worth the money! I’d rather have tea.” Kai flashed a grin.
