Chapter 188

Early next morning, James and Helen went out happily. Both of them went to the best mall in the city and
bought an expensive outfit each. They had haircuts, facials and went home to get dressed up well. From
there, they headed directly to Cunningham House.

After losing in the power struggle, Eric Cunningham had completely lost his authority in Cunningham
Pharmaceuticals. The shareholders didn’t even bother listening to him, and his words held no weight
there. It was better for him to stay at home.

When James and Helen arrived, they felt glee at seeing the grief of the Cunningham family.

“Oh!” Helen shouted as soon as she entered the door, “Dad, it has been some time since we last met.
You’ve lost so much weight. With your age catching up, it’s better you stay at home.

Don’t worry, we have taken care of the company pretty well. It is showing positive results, much better
than before. You don’t have to worry about the business at all!”

Eric was so angry that he almost dropped the teacup in his hand. “What are you two doing here? I heard
the both of you have caused such a mess. Starting a pharmaceutical company, only to be later controlled
by your own live-in son-in-law?

Now, let me make it clear. Cunningham’s Pharmaceutical may belong to the Cunningham family, and
yes, you have power over it now.

However, if it falls into the hands of someone who does not carry the Cunningham surname, you will
never be forgiven. Even after death, you will never be buried in the Cunningham Family grave!” roared
Eric.

James looked embarrassed. This matter had been a constant thorn in his side.



“Dad, don’t worry about the business. That coward will not stay much longer in my house. Today, I bring
you good news.”



After he said this, James smiled widely and looked at everyone present. “After tonight, our Cunningham
family will have finally entered into Eastcliff’s high society!”

As soon as he made his announcement, everyone was shocked.

Jason said indignantly, “Stop pretending. The company has barely signed on those businesses, so how
can it be declared as high class? It’s just a windfall gain. Look at yourself. Do you think you’re considered
as high society?”

James was not angry. Instead, he smiled lightly as he said, “Jason, I know you are not convinced. But
this is the truth. We have been invited to attend the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party tonight!”

What came next was a commotion. After all, everyone knew about the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party. For
more than ten years, Eric Cunningham had been desperate to attend the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party, but
had never been able to do so. Now, it was James who was invited to the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party? How
was it even possible?

Jason shouted loudly at once, “Are you out of your mind? On what grounds have you two been invited to
the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party? Do you know what it takes to enter?

It’s not something that can happen even if the company has signed a billion dollar deal. You have to have
huge fixed assets, and these assets have to be in your hands for a long time to prove that you are
eligible to enter the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party.

Y-You just had a windfall gain! How are you qualified to attend the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party?”



James replied smugly, “Calm down, everyone! I know it may sound far-fetched, but this is the truth. It
was Leanna Sandel who invited us to be a part of it.

Tonight, we are going to the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party in person. By the way Dad, you can also come to
Cloud Nine Villa tonight. Although you’re not invited, you can at least have a look from the outside. Don’t
miss out on the chance to witness the honorable moment when our Cunningham Family enters high
society!”
