The Strongest Man in the Universe

The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 188



Bobby and Leslie's family are left in the living room, with Alex. The two families looked at each other with unpleasant expressions on their faces.


David's words were like a basin filled with cold water that doused all their passion.


Initially, they thought of gaining some advantages like Diana so that they could drive a luxury car, live in a luxurious house, and have a good job like the Diana family. Unexpectedly, David did not give them any face at all.


David donated 200 million out of the blue, but he was unwilling to help them.


Both families had endless regrets in their hearts at this moment. If they knew that David could be so promising, they would have been better at him in the past. If they gave a small price or cared little for David, they would be able to reap unlimited profits today.


Look at Diana and Sally. Not only did David give them a luxury home worth hundreds of millions of dollars, but he also arranged a leisurely job with an annual salary of over a million for them. They can earn so much money without doing anything.


Everyone knows that David was just looking for a way to give them money. Who does not envy the life they lead?


Leslie and her wife were the ones who felt the most regret. They had plenty of opportunities to help David at the time. When David stayed at Diana's house, he had a good relationship with Diana, so he would come to visit often. However, they basically ignored David, and even when David called out to him, he did not bother to admit it.


This was a missed opportunity for him to experience a reversal of fortune.


"Hhhhh!" Leslie and his wife breathed heavily. They really regret this.


David, Celia, and Judy help Diana in the kitchen together. Soon, a fancy lunch was ready at two tables. While they were eating, Diana wanted to arrange for David and Bobby's family to sit down together, but David refused. In the end, Bobby and Leslie's family sat at one table, while David, Celia, and Diana sat at the other table.


After lunch, Diana wanted David to stay longer. However, David doesn't want to be around people like Bobby, so he leaves with Celia on the pretext that she has a job to do.


After David left, Bobby and Leslie's family were completely desperate and everything seemed lethargic.


“You guys, I already warned you back then, even every dog has his day. What can you do now? If you treat David a little better in the past, you won't end up like you are now.” Diana said.


“Diana, what's the point of talking about this now? We knew we were wrong, but what could we do? No pills to turn back time.” replied Leslie.


“Yes, what's the point of talking about it now?” Bobby answered while sighing.


“Wait a minute. Dave is still angry now, but it might get better after some time. After all, blood is thicker than water.”


“Aunt Diana, is David really the boss of Golden Leaf Hotel, the eight-star hotel where you work?” Quin asked.


Everyone looked at Diana curiously, waiting for her answer.


“Of course. He's the chairman, otherwise, how would he manage for all of us to work there? I heard from the people in the finance department that all our annual salaries exceed the salaries of the general manager of Golden Leaf Hotel.”


“Then how much do you get each month?” ask Quin again.


“Now we get 500 thousand a month, so our family of four gets 2 million a month.” said Diana.


These people were the closest to him, so he didn't need to hide anything.


“2 j-million a month? Which means it's gonna be 24 million a year? My lord!” Quin.


The others were shocked too. Bobby and Karen's heart is bleeding. For two million, they formed bad intentions that made David hate them so much. If they do not do this, with four people in their family, one person can earn 500 thousand dollars a month so the whole family will have 2 million dollars a month and 24 million dollars a year.


Now not only did they not get 2 million, but they also made a huge loss here.


'24 million a year!'


They both wanted to slap themselves a few times. They had given up a huge reward for grabbing the memo.


Not only did Bobby's family want to slap themselves, Leslie and his wife also wanted to slap themselves.


“No, you can't count it like this. Dave said that we could also go straight to finance to get the money we needed. He asked us to learn how to manage this hotel because this hotel will be given to us in the future."


Bobby and Leslie's entire family are dizzy.


“Can't you keep your mouth? How can you tell them all that?" Alex asked with a heavy tone.


“We are family, so what to fear?” diana said indifferently.


“Hmph!”


Alex snorted furiously. Everyone would hide their wealth, but his wife told everyone how much she had. His wife had never seen how evil the people in society were.


“Aunt Diana, what would David do if he gave the hotel to you?” Quin kept asking.


"I heard from the hotel's general manager that the Golden Leaf Hotel is just a fraction of Dave's large property and that Dave's other assets are said to be worth more than the Golden Leaf Hotel.


“B-How did David do this? He hasn't even graduated college, has he?” quin didn't believe it.


“We don't know. When we found out, Dave had already achieved all this."


“Feli, do you think Dave will forgive us?” Bobby asked, not too confident.


“Diana, isn't David going to give you the hotel? You should be able to arrange for us to go to work there, right? The general manager would not dare to reject this unless he did not want to work there anymore. After all, this hotel will be yours in the future" Bobby said suddenly.


When Bobby said this, everyone was moved. ‘True, if David won't help us, Diana can still help us, right?’


Although they might not get the same treatment as Diana, they should be able to live a decent life with their connection to her.


Before Diana could say anything, Alex could no longer hold back. How would they face David if he let his wife say yes to them?


One cannot take unwarranted authority based on the good of others. If they agreed to this, they might as well be estranged from David in the future.


“Don't think about that. First, we haven't taken over the hotel, so we don't have this power. Even if we do, we can't help you before David nods his head. Rather than wasting your efforts on us, why not think of a way to get David's forgiveness? Other things besides that are non-negotiable." Alex took a step further and said.


“Bobby, your sister-in-law is right. You need to get David's forgiveness before you want us to help you. Dave gave us everything we have now, so if he doesn't say anything, we won't offer any help to you.” Diana said.


Alex breathed a sigh of relief. 'Fortunately his brain is still working well.'


“Diana, we..”.


“Enough. Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about something else.”


Bobby sighed and said nothing more. The rest stopped talking.


Talk about something else?


What else is there to talk about?


Besides, they're not interested in anything else.


After David and Celia leave Diana's house, the two drive around the outskirts of Shu City. The scenery in Shu City was amazing and they were both having fun. They don't come back until it gets dark.


After returning to the hotel, David calls Aunt Sally and tells her that he has something to do the next day, and she will only meet them when he returns to River City.


After what happened at Aunt Diana's house, David could probably guess what Aunt Sally was trying to do. He suspected that Aunt Sally also played as a lobbyist for two other David uncles.


Two of his other uncles, such as Leslie, join the battle for compensation when David's parents die. In the end, David chose Bobby, and since then they have never been nice to David.


David didn't want to deal with a person like this who valued money more than family. Sally thought David must have been triggered at Diana's house today, so she no longer forced him.


He could only sigh at himself. It seemed like David still could not let go of the grudge in his heart.


David still brought Celia to tour Shu City the next day. Celia is happy with David. He doesn't really want to go to class reunions, he just wants to be with David all the time.


In the afternoon, the High School group chat became crowded because the class reunion would take place the next day. No problem for classmates who live not far from Shu City. However, some of them who were far away needed to time each other and rushed to Shu City together.


Clay: Guys, from now on, 40 people will definitely come to the reunion tomorrow. The reunion will be held at Frangipani Restaurant in Shu City and lunch will begin at exactly 12. I hope everyone will come early. After lunch, we can have a casual chat about our lives. Then, we'll have dinner in Frangipani as well. After that, we will move to Dynamic Zone Entertainment Center to sing and dance. Thank you for all your support for the reunion this time.


Classmate: Thank you, Clay!


Classmate: Thank you for arranging this reunion, Clay!


Classmate: Clay, you are so tough and domineering!


Then, everyone started chatting in the group. Clay waited for a very long time and Celia still did not say anything. So, he decided not to pay attention to the group.


Next day


The reunion took place that day. Since the reunion was about to start at noon, David and Celia were in no hurry. They just started slowly towards the gathering place at 10 am.


Frangipani Restaurant can be considered as one of the most luxurious restaurants in Shu City.


When David and Celia arrived, there were already many vehicles parked in front of Frangipani Restaurant. David only managed to find a parking space after breaking into the vehicle.


After parking the car, David and Celia walked towards the restaurant. Upon entering the hall, the arrival of David and Celia attracted the attention of many people. There had never been a person with such outstanding looks and elegant temperament like David and Celia in Shu City.


The restaurant was rather large and it was almost time for lunch. Besides, there are a lot of people here. David did not bother looking for private rooms one by one, so he called the waiter directly, asked for the specific location of the private room, and then walked with Celia.


After finding a private room, David could hear that the room was very crowded from outside the door. He even heard some familiar voices, so he immediately pushed the door open.


After opening the door, David discovered that the private room was very large and not crowded at all despite having four tables inside. Obviously it has been specially designed by the hotel for such small gatherings.


It seemed like there were already more than 30 people in the room, so David grabbed Celia's hand and walked in. Everyone was talking in the room when they heard the door open so they knew another classmate was coming. Therefore, they turned to look.


However, everyone immediately froze on the spot. Although David has changed a lot, he has been their classmate for three years. So, they could naturally recognize him.


But what do they see?


They saw David and Celia walking hand in hand.
