Dream of a Happy Family

Giving Clock

In an instant, Winifred and his group stood up straight. It is undeniable that they are so nervous!

However, what they never expected was that the first batch of guests were members of the Zea family!

The three cars stopped in a parking lot in front of the company entrance. They were parked horizontally, deliberately occupying a total of six spots.

With Jorge and Iris in the lead, the Zea family arrogantly got off the car.

When Joseph saw the cars coming, he immediately rushed to greet them as the deputy manager. But upon seeing Jorge and his group, the smile on his face instantly vanished. "Why are you here?"

The humiliation he had gotten when he was in Zea Group last time was something that Joseph would never forget even until his grave. The feeling of injury once caused by the Zea Group would never be able to heal.

"Of course, it's because President Zea has invited us. Wh why? You don't want to welcome us?" Iris showed no respect to even the older man, Joseph. He looked around the empty parking lot and then looked into the room there were only a few people before he finally laughed.

"We're not the earliest guests here, are we? It's almost ten now! I think there will be more people here to celebrate the opening of Autumn Field. Why isn't anyone here? Hehe, this is too bad!"

Iris' enigmatic attitude made Joseph's face dark.

By then, Winifred and Tyr had finished.

Before Winifred could say a word, Iris shouted with all her might, "Winifred Zea, as expected of a boss. Look how proud you are right now. The elders of the Zea family are all here, but you have let your subordinates welcome our arrival first. Ck ck... Look egomu. The leaders in Khanh City can't even compare to your attitude in this!"

Tyr's expression darkened. If he had not tried to keep the atmosphere light today, he would have already slapped him.

Winifred instead considers Iris a clown and tries to ignore her. He looked at Jorge and greeted him. However, Jorge had turned his body around with his cold demeanor, making Winifred feel awkward.

Iris grinned before instructing the two Zea family members to pull out a box from the boot trunk of the SUV.

"Winifred, I was just kidding you. Don't put it in your heart. Whatever happens, we are a family, so at the opening ceremony of your company, the Zea family should give you something to celebrate the occasion. That's just a small part of our respect. No need to thank me."

The box was about a meter tall, covered in a red cloth.

Iris smiled brightly at Winifred as she said, "This is a sign of respect from the Zea family. Why don't you open it and look at it?"

Winifred pulled the red cloth by reflex.

Inside the glass box was actually a pendulum clock about half a meter high! There was even a big red flower hanging ahead of the clock! Red flowers imply luck, but they seem to spoil the scene when placed in front of the clock!

Winifred was shocked while Joseph and Graham became furious

"What do you mean by all this? How can you give us the clock on the opening of our company? Did you come just to look for a storm?"

As he spoke, Iris turned to Winifred. "What's wrong? This is something that Grandfather chose with us. Don't you like it?"

Winifred can't speak. He doesn't know what to say.

Tyr, who was standing nearby, laughed instead. "We liked it. Of course, we like it. Look at you, you're too good. The Autumn Field Group will appreciate the hours you've given us the way we value our ancestors."

Therefore, Tyr turned to the two security guards assigned to receive the reward and said to him, "Quick, move this large pendulum clock to the reward area. Remember to put it in front, in the most obvious position! This is the award that the Zea family gave. We can't disappoint them."

The security guards did as they were told. Iris and the Zea family members were confused. Why is this beggar so happy? That doesn't make any sense. Shouldn't he be as angry as Joseph and the others?

"Grandfather, First Uncle, Second Uncle, Auntie, please come in and sit down."

Although Winifred knew that Iris and his group were here to start a conflict, it felt inappropriate for him to attack first. He should welcome them with a smile.

The members of the Zea family began to enter the banquet hall in an arrogant, mocking, and insulting manner as they entered it.

Just then, Jacob and Helen happen to meet them, and the atmosphere becomes awkward.

"Dad. Brother, Second Brother, Brother!" Jacob went to greet them and offered them cigarettes.

However, none of the Zea family members took it. Jorge snorted and turned to leave.

"Third sister, keep your cigarettes. We don't want to take it."

Jackson and Jared, too, snorted before following Jorge to sit down somewhere. They sat down not because they wanted to eat, but they wanted to see how the Autumn Field Group became embarrassed later.

Iris and Travis even took out their phones to stream live. To show if no one would come congratulate the Autumn Field Group at their opening ceremony. To show the world that the situation of the event is lonely and embarrassing!

Not many people came. Within half an hour, only about eight people came. The cars that these guests brought were each only worth around ten million. As an entrepreneur, the price of their car represents the value of their personality. For people who use vehicles worth ten million, how prominent are they?

These people were owners of small workshops who used to deal with Jorge. They are not very important individuals.

As the time approached ten-thirty, only less than a fifth of the twenty tables were filled. The place looks empty. This was what Iris and her group wanted to see.

"Grandfather, Uncle, Aunt, look. Like I said. No one will want to come and support the opening of Winifred company. The villagers who came here even deliberately they paid as guests. Very funny!"

Jackson, Lilian, and the rest of the Zea family started laughing. Even Jorge seemed to enjoy this tragic scene.

Iris got up and shouted at Winifred, standing at the door, "True I said, Big Boss Zea. You've been waiting for almost an hour. Is there someone else coming? If no one comes, let's start eating!"
