Mrs. and Mr. Smith

Chapter 359: 359: Mike Taylor’s Choice_1

He first stared blankly, then his face was full of anger!

His entire face was almost distorted with rage, and even his body was shaking slightly!

Seeing this scene, the surrounding people seemed quite surprised as well.

They unconsciously took a step back, looking eager to watch the excitement unfold.

These people also wanted to know, what kind of attitude would Ethan Smith, an unknown nobody, have when facing Dexter Blair.

“Thank you, Mr. Blair, for opening the car door for me personally. You’ve worked hard.” Ethan Smith calmly got out of the car.

Not only that, but he also patted Dexter Blair’s shoulder with his hand.

“You!” Dexter Blair clenched his fist, almost smashing it over!

But in the end, Dexter Blair still held back.

Because he knew very well that losing his composure in front of so many people would only make him the one who loses face.

Dexter Blair took a deep breath and tried to speak calmly, “It’s just opening a door. You’re welcome.”

During the conversation, Mike Taylor, helped by Emily Taylor, got out of the car.

Dexter Blair no longer paid attention to Ethan Smith, he quickly and enthusiastically shouted, “Grandpa Taylor!”

Mike Taylor smiled and nodded, saying, “Dexter Blair, you came too.”

“Even if there were important things, I would definitely come to Grandpa Taylor’s birthday.” Dexter Blair laughed.

After that, Dexter Blair tried to help Mike Taylor.

But Mike Taylor waved his hand and said, “Go and sit down.”

Dexter Blair felt a bit awkward, but he still gritted his teeth and said, “I got it, Grandpa Taylor.”

The arrival of Mike Taylor naturally pushed the atmosphere at the party to a climax.

Everyone came forward to congratulate Mike Taylor.

“Wish Grandpa Taylor happiness as vast as the East Sea, life as long as the Southern Mountain!”

“Grandpa Taylor’s body is so strong; he will definitely have a long life!”

“Grandpa Taylor’s days are bright, and his youth is as long as the pine and crane!”

Watching everyone’s posture, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but sigh.

Mike Taylor’s status in Capital City is truly high!

And this is just Capital City, if you look across the whole country, who knows how many forces the Taylor family has.

“Alright, everyone take your seats.” Mike Taylor waved his hand and said.

As the words of Mike Taylor fell, everyone returned to their seats.

The banquet was set up outdoors, and many tables were placed throughout the manor.

On the tables were all sorts of delicacies from land and sea.

Ethan Smith and Emily Taylor followed Mike Taylor towards the table at the front.

Dexter Blair, not far away, watched with clenched teeth and a face full of anger.

“Useless, can’t you take it?” Reilly Blair coldly glanced at Dexter Blair.

Dexter Blair couldn’t help but say, “Dad, don’t you see, Ethan Smith has been following Mike Taylor the whole time! Even I don’t get that kind of treatment!”

Reilly Blair snorted, “So what? So, you have to put everything you think in your heart on your face? How did I teach you all these years?”

“Sometimes you have to have thick skin when dealing with people, understand?” Reilly Blair seemed to mean something by these words.

Fortunately, Dexter Blair was not stupid; he quickly understood Reilly Blair’s meaning.

So, he immediately walked towards Mike Taylor’s side.

At this time, the table was already full of dishes, and many people came up to give gifts and toast.

Dexter Blair, holding a wine glass, swiftly walked to Mike Taylor’s side.

“Grandpa Taylor, I wish you every moment like today, every year like this moment, I toast to you.” Dexter Blair said respectfully.

Mike Taylor laughed and said, “Dexter Blair, my body is not very good, and I can’t drink anymore. Let Ethan Smith drink with you.”

After saying that, Mike Taylor looked over at Ethan Smith by his side.

Ethan Smith didn’t seem to care much, he picked up the wine glass and said with a smile, “Mr. Tenny Blair, please.”Dexter Blair was about to burst with anger, but he remembered his father’s words and forcefully suppressed his rage.

After drinking a glass of wine, Dexter Blair simply sat next to Mike Taylor.

Much to his relief, Mike Taylor didn’t say anything about it.

Before long, Kylan Taylor and his entourage came over from not far away.

Kylan Taylor’s arrival attracted countless gazes.

Everyone knew that once Mike Taylor was gone, Kylan Taylor would become the new head of the Taylor family.

Thus, the crowd flocked to Kylan with glasses of wine in hand, toasting him.

After a round of drinks, Kylan quickly approached Mike Taylor.

He glanced at Ethan Smith and snorted coldly, “Who told you that you could sit here?”

“Mike Taylor invited me to sit here, what’s the matter?” Ethan replied calmly.

Kylan snorted and whispered coldly in Ethan’s ear, “Don’t think you can do whatever you want just because my dad backs you up. Your days of arrogance are numbered.”

Having said that, Kylan turned and walked away.

At that moment, Ethan caught sight of a handsome young man.

The young man seemed to be in his twenties, yet he exuded an impressive and noble aura.

Even from afar, it was difficult to ignore him.

Ethan looked at the young man and whispered, “Who is that guy?”

“Dominic Taylor, my uncle’s son,” Emily Taylor replied.

“He’s Dominic Taylor?” Ethan raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued.

After all, Dominic Taylor was the top-ranked individual among the younger generation! His strength was even superior to Dexter Blair’s!

“Dominic!” Seeing Dominic, Dexter Blair quickly got up and greeted him.

Dominic Taylor smiled and replied, “Dexter Blair, you’re here too.”

Dexter said, “Of course, it’s Grandpa Taylor’s birthday, so I had to come.”

“Besides, we might be family someday.” Dexter laughed.

Dominic Taylor nodded but said nothing more.

“Grandpa, happy birthday,” Dominic said to Mike Taylor, bowing.

Mike Taylor nodded and smiled, “Dominic Taylor, come and sit down.”

Dominic walked over and sat down next to Ethan Smith.

He didn’t say a word to Ethan, and he didn’t even glance at him.

Unlike the other aristocratic disciples, Dominic didn’t have an overbearing attitude.

However, those who knew him were well aware that Dominic was ruthless and not a bit inferior to Kylan Taylor.

At a distance.

Reilly Blair looked calm, his eyes fixed on Mike Taylor’s direction.

Both Ethan Smith and Reilly Blair were sitting at Mike Taylor’s table, which inevitably led to wild speculation.

“You want to hold both ends of the candle? Dream on!” Reilly crushed his cigarette in his hand.

Then he scoffed, “Today, I have to force you to make a choice! I don’t believe you would choose Ethan Smith over my son in front of so many people!”

Following this, Reilly took out his phone and made a call.

“Come in, all of you,” Reilly said coldly.

After hanging up, a group of reporters entered soon after.

The reporters quickly approached Mike Taylor and politely said, “Mr. Taylor, wishing you happiness as vast as the Eastern Sea and longevity as great as the Southern Mountains.”

As an old fox, Mike Taylor knew that the reporters had been arranged by someone on purpose.

But he didn’t panic and smiled in response, “You’re too kind. I’m just a withered old man, undeserving of your television station’s presence to celebrate my birthday.”

The reporter laughed, “But you’re a well-known entrepreneur in Capital City, and we greatly admire you.”

At this point, the reporter paused, and the cameraman quickly focused on Ethan Smith.

“Mr. Taylor, there have been rumors that a young man named Ethan Smith is to become your family’s future son-in-law. What is your opinion on this matter?”

“As far as we know, Dexter Blair, the young master of the Blair family, also seems to be pursuing your granddaughter. If you had to choose between these two young men, who would you pick?” The reporter quickly pitched the main topic.
