Chapter 570 Well-Prepared
“Chase all of them out!” Noah was very annoyed. He wanted to comfort his wife and children by relaxing with them, but these people just could not stop visiting them.
Madeline was busy socializing with the guests to the point that Noah could not even see her frequently even if they were living under one roof.
Madeline was so exhausted at night that she did not even want to do anything else.
Noah was so furious. Unfortunately for Wayne, he became the scapegoat who was scolded. However, the Dawson family could not be offended. Otherwise, it would be hard to do business with them in the future.
“Daddy, let me meet Mr. Dawson for you.” Colton stood at the door and helped Wayne out of trouble.
Wayne was so grateful to have Colton helping him.
Noah waved his hands and approved Colton’s suggestion. He was so busy and had no time to meet anyone.
Colton waved towards Wayne. He took out a gift box and went to meet the guests with Colton.
The Dawson family had been waiting for a long time, but they were unhappy when they saw a kid welcoming them.
They came to visit not because they cared about Noah but because they wanted to rely on Noah’s image to build their own image to help with the upcoming elections. However, Noah ignored them.
Wayne could not care less about their happiness. They would have had no chance of entering the place in the past anyway. He felt they should be grateful for the opportunity to visit and even have Colton welcome them.
“Mr. Quincy is such a busy person.” Said Olivia in a peculiar way.
Colton answered, “Daddy got caught up in Yashal. Since he came back, he has been busy with work while recovering from his injury.”
“I see. He was so busy that he has forgotten his manners.” Olivia thought she was a noble and looked down on Noah. She figured Noah was someone who should even bow down to her father.
“My father said not to meet any guests. His politeness comes from his willingness to meet all of you. I’m sure Olivia went out too early and left your manners back at home,” Colton retorted.
Olivia was so angry. She stood up and prepared to scold Colton. Mrs. Dawson quickly stopped her. They were here to make friends with the Quincy family instead of making enemies. They might not have been able to enter this place if it was not for the relationship between Old Mr. Dawson and Gordon.
Although Noah did not come out to greet them, Mrs. Dawson knew it was usual in their circle. There were also things that they can use against the Quincy family.
“Thank you for visiting my father, Mr. Dawson and Mrs. Dawson. However, my father was unwell and busy. He has no time at all. Mr. Charles, send them off.” Colton stood up and left after saying that.
Colton heard Wayne say that the Dawson family was close to the Quincy family, so he came out and welcomed them in person.
Since they looked down on him, there was no need for him to be friendly anymore.
He figured what his daddy said was right. He did not need to care or be afraid of anything in Imperia.
All three people from the Dawson family were very unhappy. Mrs. Dawson did not even want to put up a façade anymore. She left immediately while dragging Olivia away.
Wayne sent them off while speaking to Mr. Charles purposely, “Old Mr. Gillian was here yesterday. Colton did well in welcoming him. He even said Colton could handle huge responsibilities and be successful in the future. Why can’t he welcome the Dawson family today? Is the Dawson family more reputable than the Gillian family?”
“I wonder. I’m heading to the kitchen. Mr. Quincy made soup for Mrs. Quincy. Let me see if it’s done. I’ll bring it over to Mrs. Quincy later,” said Mr. Charles as he walked inside the kitchen.
Mrs. Dawson and Olivia were so angry. They were so unimportant that Colton would make soup for Madeline instead of meeting them.
Mr. Dawson was different. He was worried when he heard Old Mr. Gillian’s name. No one in Imperia dared to defy the Gillian family except for Noah. No family was bigger than the Gillian family. Old Mr. Gillian was his direct superior. If he found out about this, it would leave a bad impression. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The next day, Mrs. Dawson and Olivia went to visit again, but they were turned away this time.
They did not give up and went to find Madeline with another rich woman.
Mr. Charles informed Colton immediately, and Colton went to discuss it with Thomas and Mackenzie. They decided to protect Madeline in case Olivia decided to bully her.
Madeline hated dealing with these people more than Noah. Previously, she did it because Mrs. Tucker forced her. She did not know why Mrs. Tucker would do that but ever since she was rescued by them, Mrs. Tucker did not find her many times and asked a lot from her.
Although she did not agree for Madeline to be with Noah, she did not really do anything to separate both of them, so Madeline just ignored it. It was also the reason why Madeline agreed to her request to meet these rich women.
Albert said perhaps Mrs. Tucker suggested it to prepare Madeline for her life in Imperia in the future. After all, she would be Mrs. Quincy soon. She would have many enemies when she had so many businesses. It would benefit her businesses by getting on these rich women’s good side. Madeline was successfully persuaded.
The Law family was visiting today. Madeline had a good impression of Natalia. Although Madeline was jealous of her in the past, it did not affect her admiration for Natalia’s character.
“Mrs. Quincy, how are you doing?” A plump woman who was in her forties walked inside Quincy’s residence. Beside her stood Natalia, whom Madeline had met before.
They greeted each other with a smile. However, there was another pair of mother-and-daughter behind them whom none of them recognized.
“Thank you, Mrs. Law. It is just a minor injury, and I am fine now.” Madeline led the group into the living room as the servants walked in to serve the guests tea and snacks.
Mrs. Law saw everything and believed what Natalia had told her. Unlike the rumors spread by other rich women, she could see that Madeline was not a bumpkin who is rude.
“I’m glad to see that you’re fine. Do you know each other?” Mrs. Law was a responsible woman. She brought the Dawson mother-and-daughter pair with her, so there was no reason for her to ignore them. Although Madeline had married into the Quincy family for many years, it was still possible for her to not know them, so Mrs. Law had to introduce them.
Surprisingly, Madeline already studied everyone’s relationship in Imperia before socializing today. She was especially familiar with the people who were related to the Quincy family.
