He Yu didn’t reveal too many emotions on the surface. Instead, he smiled and said gently, “I’ve already confirmed with the person in charge of the Hill Family’s subsidiary company that as a business partner, I’ll definitely be able to receive an invitation to Miss Hill’s birthday banquet. At that time, I’d like to invite Huo You to attend this banquet as my female companion. I’ll send the gown and jewelry to be worn for the banquet to the Huo Family. I hope Youyou can understand my intentions.”

Mr. Huo frowned slightly. His tone was a little stiff as he said unhappily, “The Hill Family has always been thoughtful and meticulous. I believe that they won’t miss out on the Huo Family in their invitation list. When the time comes, Youyou will attend the banquet with us. There’s no need for you to worry…”

Mr. Huo was video calling He Yu in the study when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. He looked up and saw that it was Mrs. Huo. She was frowning tightly, and Huo You, who looked equally grim, was behind her.

Mr. and Mrs. Huo exchanged glances. The two of them had a tacit understanding and knew that this meant that there was something very important that needed to be discussed. Hence, Mr. Huo quietly bade He Yu farewell and hung up the video call.

He frowned slightly and said unhappily, “What’s the matter?”

Mrs. Huo’s expression was solemn. She pulled Huo You’s wrist and strode to the study, saying anxiously, “Huo You just said that Huo Tian is Miss Hill, the one who is holding the 19th birthday banquet…”

“What nonsense is this?” Upon hearing this news, Mr. Huo’s first reaction was disbelief.

He looked at Huo You reproachfully and said in a stiff tone, “Huo You, I know that the engagement banquet has been canceled and you think our actions have hurt your reputation. However, now is not the time to talk nonsense. We have to build a relationship with the Hill Family. Otherwise, all the high society in S City will attend Miss Hill’s birthday banquet, leaving our family out. Then, our Huo Family will become the laughing stock of the entire S City.”

Just like Mrs. Huo’s reaction just now, when Mr. Huo heard about the relationship between Huo Tian and the Hill Family, his first reaction was that Huo You was joking with them.

Of course, Mrs. Huo understood Mr. Huo’s thoughts, but now was not the time to verify the authenticity of this news once again.

Mrs. Huo also said, sounding a little anxious, “Hubby, I asked Huo You carefully about this just now. Si Huan was the one who said this in public. If there wasn’t a certain degree of authenticity, how could Si Huan have allowed this piece of news to spread?”

Upon hearing Mrs. Huo’s words, Mr. Huo had a bad feeling. “Huo You, how did you get this information? Tell me about it in detail again.”

When Huo You was downstairs, she had already told Mrs. Huo about what had happened at school today. At Mr. Huo’s request, Huo You repeated what she had said familiarly.

With Huo You’s explanation, Mr. Huo’s face turned increasingly grim. In the end, he slammed the solid wood desk hard, making his palm numb and painful.

However, Mr. Huo couldn’t care less about the pain in his palm. He stood up and paced back and forth in the study. After a long while, he seemed to have thought of something. He picked up his phone and called a few friends.

“Old Zhang, did you receive the Hill Family’s invitation letter? Oh, you did? Then do you know anything about Miss Hill…”

“CEO Wang, it’s me. Yes, the engagement banquet has been temporarily canceled. Do you know anything about Mr.. Hill and Miss Hill? I want to know what Miss Hill likes so that I can prepare a suitable birthday gift for her…”
