Chapter 1389

James, Helen, and Cayden chatted for a while when suddenly there was a commotion next to them.

As the three of them turned their heads to look, they saw Noel walking over with Maddie and a group of
people from the Reeves Family, looking intimidating.

Seeing this, Cayden instantly broke out into a cold sweat.He quickly stood up to receive them.

"Look, Maddie, whatever the matter is, can we save it for when we go home? James is an old friend of
mine, so...can you cut us some slack?"

Maddie immediately slapped him across the face and roared, "Slack? You still want me to cut you
some slack? Why don't you take a look at yourself and see if you're worthy of saying that to me?"

Cayden's face flushed red from her slap, which attracted a bout of laughter from the crowd.

Still, he said meekly, "Maddie, I...I know you're not happy, but James hasn't come here in many years.If
you have any problems, let's talk about it at home, and you can do whatever you want to me.Can
you...not cause a fuss here?"

Maddie exploded with fury.

"Fuss? Who's causing a fuss? Get your facts right! What's wrong, do you think I'm a crazy woman who
only causes trouble for you?"

Cayden hurriedly explained, "I...I didn't mean it that way.Maddie, c-can you take it as doing me a favor,
please?"

As he said that, he sounded as if he was about to cry.However, Maddie didn't give in.



"Do you a favor? Cayden, how are you still shameless? When you hit my son, did you consider the fact
that he's already an adult, and he has his pride too? You slapped my son in front of everyone for the
sake of your useless friends.Have you ever considered how he would feel?"

Cayden flushed red.

"Maddie, all things considered, I-I'm still his dad.Besides, Noel had gone too far earlier.If we don't teach
him a lesson now, he...he might do something even worse in the future..."

Maddie glared at him.

"Why do I need you to teach my son a lesson? Cayden, you've been a loser all your life who can't do
anything for yourself, yet you have the cheek to teach my son a lesson? What's wrong, do you want my
son to live off a woman just like you?"

Her words caused the crowd to erupt in laughter again.

Cayden's face was red as he trembled with anger, and his hands clenched into fists.

However, he didn't dare to burst out in anger.

Meanwhile, Noel stood by the side and watched him disdainfully.

To Noel, his father was his embarrassment.

Hence, he didn't feel a single ounce of pity for Cayden.

"Move aside!"

Maddie shoved Cayden aside and walked over to James and Helen, pointing at them.

"I'll give you a minute.Get out of this place immediately! Or else, I'll get someone to throw you out!"



James and Helen's faces fell.

Maddie Reeves, just how overbearing can she get? "Miss Reeves, we're here to celebrate Old Master
Reeves’ birthday.Even if we did something wrong, you don't have to act like this, right?"

James asked in a low voice.

Maddie retorted coldly, "Celebrate his birthday? Who do you think you are? Do you have the right to
celebrate my old man's birthday? Did you receive an invitation?"

James was immediately rendered speechless.

Helen cut in, "Miss Reeves, even if we didn't get an invitation, we came here to sincerely give him our
wishes.For you to chase us out like this, is this how the Reeves Family treat their guests?"

Her words made Maddie tongue-tied as she struggled to find an answer.

Just then, an elderly voice sounded from behind her.

"Indeed, the Reeves Family doesn't treat our guests like this.

However, the problem is, we would only tend to our own guests.As for any uninvited guests, we don't
have anything to do with them!"
