Chapter 70 Annalisé Won’t Be Provoked
Everyone guessed that Joseph, the medical expert, gave Annalise the jar of pills.
Hence, they all asked Annalise.
‘Anna… Mrs. Parks, when did that old man give you the pill?”
“Yes, yes. Where did you meet that old sir, Mrs. Parks?”
“Mrs. Parks, did you contact that old sir after that incident?”
“Mrs. Parks, do you know where the old sir lives? Do you have his number?”
Josep, the medical expert, was the number one expert at Jadeborough’s hospital..
He specialized in treating complicated illnesses, and his medical skills were top-notch at home and abroad. More than ten years ago, he suddenly went into seclusion. After he went into seclusion, no one knew where he went.
After so many years, they even suspected that Master Quigley Yong had passed away.
From the looks of it, he might be still alive!
Annalise said, “This happened two to three years ago.”
Hearing that it had been two to three years, someone asked, “Then, did you meet him at Horington?”
That was an entire jar of Energizing Pills!
Everyone knew what it meant.
That meant Master Quigley had definitely mastered the skill to refine those elixir pills.
Otherwise, why would he casually give a jar of elixir pills to a stranger?
If they could find Master Quigley, they could ask him to refine such a jar of elixir pills, no matter how much it cost. With that, their family could stay healthy.
For rich people, what they wanted the most was to live a long life.
“I met him at Jadeborough,” Annalise lied.
Actually, there were still people who could find Joseph. For example, the Jones family had asked a friend to find Joseph.
“Jadeborough. I didn’t expect Elder Quigley to be so smart. He went through his seclusion in a big city!” Someone sighed.
“Didn’t you think of getting the old sir’s contact number at that time?” Someone asked Annalise, feeling pity for the chance Annalise had missed.
“No,” Annalise said.
“Alright, alright. It’s fine as long as it’s at Jadeborough. It’s fine as long as it’s at Jadeborough. Who knows when we’ll meet him?” Someone sighed.
After the incident, the Parks family people continued to present the birthday gifts they brought.
After that, the host invited the birthday man on stage to say a few words.
Samuel went on stage.
He was wearing a bright red suit and looked especially festive.
Taking the microphone, he first said a bunch of grateful words to thank everyone for taking the time to attend his birthday banquet.
Many would be worried when they grew old, yet he was happy at this age. It was really a blessing from the heavens to live to this age.
Especially now that his two grandsons had found their happiness, he was very gratified.
He introduced Annalise to everyone. “After 40 years, people will believe in fate. At my age, I believe in fate even more. I believe that all encounters are destined.
“My grandson, Julian, met Annalise in Horington. Alexander also met Abigail. This was all fate.
Their wedding was in preparation. At that time, everyone, please do me the honor of attending their wedding. “I’m old and clumsy with my words. Please don’t mind me if I don’t speak well. Anyway, thank you very much for giving me face. Everyone, eat and drink well.”
In his heart, he wanted to introduce Annalise grandly.
Afraid that Annalise would become a target, he only briefly introduced himself. At the same time, he also introduced Abigail to prevent Alexander from thinking he was biased.
The purpose of this introduction today was to tell everyone that Annalise and Julian’s marriage was approved and supported by him. The wedding was also being prepared.
This was to prevent others from seeing Annalise with Julian and thinking that Annalise was Julian’s mistress or something.
After the introduction, the banquet continued.
After a birthday song by the well-known singer, Albert’s three grandsons, led by Timothy, proposed to perform a show to celebrate Samuel’s birthday.
Everyone would definitely support such a thing and had expected it.
Those descendants of wealthy families would want to show off when they encountered such an opportunity.
Timothy Parks quickly went on stage and performed a martial arts show.
They were wearing loose martial arts uniforms and holding basalt sticks in their hands. When the music was played, they waved the basalt sticks in their hands and started performing.
The first move: One joss stick in the sky….
The three brothers waved the sticks in their hands vigorously.
The sound of music and martial arts complemented each other.
Seeing their outstanding performance, the crowd cheered.
Albert smiled and felt proud.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that as long as Samuel died, the chances of his three grandsons fighting for Parks Group would increase greatly. After all, his three grandsons were developing well in Parks Group.
Of Samuel’s children, Tony always stayed abroad, and Julian and Alexander were on bad terms.
After Timothy and his brothers performed, Jessy volunteered to play the piano.
Every girl who grew up in a wealthy family in Jadeborough was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. To her, playing the piano was what she was best at.
She liked the heir of the Jones family, Alan.
Jadeborough often met when the prominent families gathered. Everyone knew each other, but he ignored her every time she took the initiative to greet Alan.
At first, she was frustrated. Later, she realized that Alan’s personality resembled Julian’s. Not only did he ignore her, but he also ignored any woman.
Jessy had the courage again.
She went up and played a piano piece for the birthday celebration. She was serious and focused.
Coupled with her beauty, many young masters from the aristocratic families below looked at her with admiration.
Jessy played the piano and occasionally glanced at Alan below the stage.
Alan did not even look at her.
Just as Jessy finished the last note and looked at Alan again, she saw Alan glance at Annalise.
Jessy suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.
Men were indeed superficial. They liked to look at beautiful women.
Although she despised Annalise, she had to admit that Annalise’s gown and makeup today were stunning.
She wondered which famous designer Julian had hired to design her hair and makeup.
Below the stage, Jane and Abigail sat side by side.
The two of them quietly discussed how to encourage Annalise to go on stage and embarrass herself.
The two of them lowered their voices and whispered in Ferropenean. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Jane said, “Abbie, go and agitate her to perform on stage later.”
Abigail answered, “This woman knows her limits sometimes. She won’t be goaded.”
Jane asked, “Then, what should we do?”
After Jessy left the stage, the three women gathered together to discuss.
Jessy lowered her voice and said, “If provocation is useless, shall we do it openly?”
“What do you want to do?” Abigail and Jane looked at Jessy.
Jessy lifted her chin slightly. “Isn’t it inappropriate not to ask her to perform in front of everyone since. everyone in the Parks family has done their part?”
