Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 59

When Norton heard about that, he was perplexed.

He quickly turned around, and saw a couple of people coming out of the crowd.

It was the vice president of the Hansen Group, Marlon Hansen, Bell family’s current matriarch, Lena Bell, and the magic doctor Dr. Swift.

Both Marlon and Lena graduated from Riverside University.

And Dr. Swift was invited by the school headmaster Tex.

“Are you sure?”

Norton bit his teeth.

“Yes!”

“Sure!”

“Of course!”

The three of them were confirming one by one what Norton just said.

And all of them were resolute.

“Why?” Norton was feeling aggrieved.

He couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

As far as he knew, to have them as his partners, it was an easy task to force out the Harris family.

“Anyone who offends Mr. Reyes is also offending us!” Marlon said quickly.

That night when his family was killed, he was there witnessing it all, and Jacob’s cruelty had left a massive impact in his memory.

But that was exactly the reason why people like him could make it to the top, if his family members weren’t killed off, he would’ve never gotten the chance to sit on the chair of the vice president.

And right now, he wanted to leave a good impression for Jacob.

Lena and Dr. Swift didn’t talk, which meant that they agreed with what Marlon just said.

Norton wasn’t sure how much he could believe.

When did Jacob, who had always lived on other’s expenses, started having so much to offer?

But then again, this wasn’t all yet.

At that moment, another important person appeared.

“Norton, you actually dare to make a mess at my dinner party and offend Mr. Reyes! I am asking you to leave now.”

The president of the Riverside University joined as well, and nodded towards Jacob, and then he said to Norton.

When Norton saw Tex’s actions and heard his words, he was stunned.

Even the headmaster was backing up Jacob, not caring about offending the Leif family?

But this was still not all.

The person standing next to Tex raised his glass and toasted to Jacob, “Mr. Reyes, it’s been a long time, we should drink some today!”

Even though he didn’t say anything to Norton, this attitude was very clearly showing his support for Jacob.

Everyone watching them had goose bumps.

“Is this Aaron Watson?”

“Who is Aaron Watson?”

“You don’t know Aaron Watson? He is the director of Riverside Municipal Food and Drug Administration.”

“The Leif Group is mainly engaged in cosmetics, and now that Norton has offended the Bell’s, the Hansen’s and even the headmaster, they as the head of the cosmetics industry, would just have quite an influence on his business. But if they have offended Mr. Watson, their days will be counted. Any tiny little error will be the end of it.”

The crowd was discussing eagerly.

Norton was perplexed.

Actually, not only him, everyone who attended the dinner party was stunned.

What was happening?

The Jacob he knew was nobody who had married his rich wife, someone who was almost kicked out by guards, but now, he was walking with some of the most influential people who were backing him!

Theobald and the others were all shocked.

If the situation of Dr. Swift toasting to Jacob happened in the past, and showed his respect, Theobald would have been very surprised, but it would have still been acceptable.

But now, there were the Hansens, the Bells, Dr. Swift, the headmaster, Mr. Watson, one by one...

Especially Theobald, his father was the vice chairman of an office in Riverside City. Theobald himself was the general manager of a big company. Many people respected him, and he never liked Jacob before, but now, Aaron, who was even more powerful than his father, was toasting with Jacob. Who was he?

No wonder Jacob said they weren’t worth it.

And the pretty girl in the dress, who was previously only looking at Jacob with slight interest, was now staring at him, as if she wanted to throw herself onto him so that Jacob would have to take responsibility for her.

However, looking at Jacob's side, Kaley and Lena, who occupy the two places on the list of four top beauties in Riverside City, her eyes dimmed for a while!

Norton, who had woken up from the bewilderment, took a deep look at everyone.

Hate was all in his eyes.

He was so humiliated by Jacob that he wanted to get his respect back, but instead what happened then humiliated him even more.He knew that from today, he would become a joke in Riverside!

This was not only spread in small circles such as the rich people.

It would be in the entire upper class of Riverside, among all the wealthy nobles.

He would be a complete joke!

Norton glanced bitterly at a few people, then turned around and left.
