Chapter 1018

The grand birthday banquet brought together many prominent figures in Strico.

Ordinary families like the Burton family could show up at that banquet all because of Zaid. To be more precise, it

was Karina instead.

It would look strange if only Karina attended alone. Therefore, the whole Burton family was invited as

well.

At that moment, Jeanette looked at the magnificent banquet before her and those prominent figures who could

only be seen on screen. She could not help but feel astonished inwardly.

Although she had imagined scenes of the birthday banquet before, after all, it had been reported in the news.

However, she was still stunned by the view when she saw it in person.

She exclaimed inwardly, “That’s what a prestigious family is! I have to hold tight to Zaid so that the whole. family

can assimilate into such a high-class society and gain more benefits from it. With this, only can Patrick have the

chance of becoming wealthy in the future.”

Thinking of that, Jeanette smiled and held her stepdaughter Karina’s hand before saying, “Karina, let’s go greet

Zeki’s parents. Today, they invited us to attend this banquet. We should also wish the triplets a happy birthday.”

While saying that, she hinted at Wayne through a gaze. As long as Karina, such an amulet, was there for them, they

were somewhat related to Jonathan and Rosalie, even if they were ignored.

Moreover, if the prestigious figures in the banquet noticed their relationship with the Youngblood family, they would

earn great benefits for their future.

“That’s right. Come, Karina. Hold Patrick’s hand tight. Let’s go to Zeki and say hello to his parents,” Wayne said

knowingly.

However, Karina looked at all that in a daze. She seemed to be unable to regain her senses and had not heard what

Wayne and Jeanette were talking about.

For a long time, she had always thought that Zaid was her younger brother and the person she wanted to look after

and protect. Because if she did not take care of him, he would be too pitiful.

But now, for the first time, she felt that Zaid was no longer her poor younger brother, whom she used to think he

was, but a son from a prominent family.

Even without her care and protection, Zaid could live a good life. He had his parents, many housekeepers, and

many people who could only be seen on television programs coming to celebrate his birthday. Those he had was

what she did not dare to imagine, but it indeed happened.

When Karina followed her parents to Jonathan and Rosalie, the feeling of sharp contrast she had deep inside

became stronger.

She looked at Wayne and Jeanette, talking to Jonathan and Rosalie with flattering words, and Zaid’s attire that day

was like the rich son she watched in the TV series.

He was dressed in a fit suit with a small bow tie. His leather shoes were shiny, and his black hair was neatly

combed, which made his handsome face even more charming.

However, observing Zaid under such a spotlight, Karina could not help but feel unfamiliar with him. Not until Zaid

looked at Karina with dark eyes, walked to her side, and grabbed her hand tightly before. calling out, “Karrie,” only

she returned to her senses.

She said inwardly, “Zeki… He’s still the same. He’s my precious younger brother. Even if he’s the son of the

Youngblood family, he’ll leave us someday and return to the Youngblood family, and perhaps he no longer needs

my care and protection now, but I still hope he’ll always be my brother.”

“Zeki, Happy birthday!” Karina said happily.

Zaid had his face expressionless but curled up his lips into a smile at the moment. Although his smile was faint and

unnoticeable, it represented his happiness.

He thought, “I’ll be happy as long as Karrie’s here.”

Meanwhile, Jennifer had been sulky at the birthday banquet because she had not seen Felix. She was

looking forward to knowing what present he would give her. That was her first birthday after she and Felix became

friends. “What’s wrong? Why are you unhappy?” Rosalie asked Jennifer.

“Mommy, why didn’t Felix come?” Jennifer asked.

Rosalie naturally knew the reason. The existence of Felix was a controversy for the Youngblood family. If those nosy

people publicized it, it would only hurt the child even more.

“When we came out today, didn’t Felix say that he’s not into crowded places, so he didn’t want to come?” Rosalie

said.

Jennifer pouted and retorted, “If I had known he didn’t like to be in the crowd, we should have invited fewer people

to the birthday banquet. Many elders are here, but I don’t even know them.”

Rosalie stroked Jennifer’s little head and asked, “Do you really wish Felix to attend your birthday banquet?”
