Tristan hesitated and glanced around the restaurant. He didn’t see Connor.
So he whispered to the bodyguard, “We are here for Mr. McDonald today. There is no need to lower ourselves to the level of these people!”
After saying this, Tristan forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and walked to the restaurant entrance to wait quietly.
The bodyguard hesitated and followed him.
Tristan felt that it was because too many people came to visit Connor today that the Phillips Family was a little annoyed, so they did not like him so much.
Although the Phillips Family was nothing to Tristan, Connor was different. Tristan felt that it was only natural for Connor to treat Tristan like this.
Therefore, Tristan didn’t get angry and didn’t dare to get angry. He could only stand quietly at the restaurant entrance and wait for Connor’s arrival.
“Hunter, send the birthday gift to Mr. Phillips!” Tristan hesitated before turning to his bodyguard.
“Mr. Lawson, these people treated you badly, but you still want to give them gifts. Why?” the bodyguard asked.
“It’s not like you don’t know the relationship between Mr. Phillips and Mr. McDonald. We came here to please Mr. McDonald, so this gift is also for Mr. McDonald,” Tristan explained.
The bodyguard nodded silently. He did not dare to go against Tristan’s wishes. He walked to John with the birthday gift and handed it over.
However, who would have thought that John would push the gift box to the side without looking at it? The bodyguard’s heart ached when he saw this.
One must know that the gift box contained antique china from the Ming Dynasty. It was worth tens of millions and was carefully selected by Tristan!
However, John tossed it aside so casually. It was tough to understand.
“I didn’t expect the Phillips Family to be so arrogant now. However, it’s understandable that their granddaughter can marry a big shot like Mr. McDonald!” Tristan could not help but sigh in his heart when he saw John casually push away his gift.
The party continued. Tristan and his bodyguards could only stand alone at the door and wait for Connor’s arrival.
In the next half an hour.
A series of big shots from Davenport appeared in the restaurant.
“The general manager of Chicago’s Dragon Age, Zachary Zacarias, has arrived!”
“Wichita Domus Real Estate Group’s chairman, Julius Weber, has arrived!” “Gloradia Paxton Tradings, Paxton Lowe, Mr. Lowe has arrived!”
The announcement went on and on. One by one, their thunderous names resounded in the restaurant.
However, these people ended up like Tristan. They were chased out of the restaurant by John.
Most of these people were here for Connor. They wanted to see Connor, so no one chose to leave. Instead, they stood beside Tristan and waited quietly.
Most of these people were well-known CEOs in Davenport. They knew each other, so these people began to chat.
As for the customers present, most of them were locals of Phillips Estate, and some were small bosses from other places. They were not on the same level as Tristan and the others, so no one could recognize the identities of these influential people.
Who would have thought that these big shots, worth hundreds of millions, would gather to celebrate a person’s birthday? If it were anyone other than John, they would probably wake up laughing in their dreams.
However, at this moment, John treated these people as actors invited by Connor. Not only did he not treat them well, he even made them stand at the restaurant entrance and wait.
John was the only person in Davenport who could do such a foolish thing.
The guests appeared in the restaurant’s hall one after another. These people had all especially rushed over for Connor.
In less than an hour, the restaurant was already filled with people.
Moreover, any one of these people was worth hundreds of millions. John and Gabriel could not compare to them at all.
The gifts these people prepared for John were all put aside and treated as trash.
The value of these gifts added together was at least a few hundred million. This was more than all the assets of the Phillips Family combined. Unfortunately, John casually threw them aside.
“I didn’t expect Connor to find so many actors to be in the limelight at my grandfather’s birthday party!” Zander looked at the bustling crowd at the restaurant entrance and could not help but sigh softly.
“Yeah, I see that these people are well-dressed. Connor must have spent money to find someone to act in this movie!” Maya said.
“What a pity, what a pity. Connor is now in vain. Rubin saw right through him,” Qahira said sarcastically.
“Isn’t Connor doing it to make my grandfather happy?” Maya pouted and said in dissatisfaction.
“Well, why is Grandpa not happy then?” Qahira sneered.
“You!”
Maya glared at Qahira when she heard this, but she knew she could not win against Qahira, so she did not continue.
“Phillips Estate, Winston Lawson, Mr. Lawson has arrived!”
At this moment, the receptionist suddenly shouted.
When John heard this, he heaved a long sigh of relief. Then, he said in a low voice, “This time, it’s finally true!”
Winston Lawson, Mr. Lawson himself!
This name was quite influential in Phillips Estate. It was not inferior to Thomas’ influence in Porthampton!
Although Phillips Estate was named after the Phillips Family, as the Phillips Family gradually declined over the years, the Lawson Family became the new leader!
Even if Winston were the mayor of Porthampton, he would still treat them as equals. From this, one could see how powerful the Lawson Family was.
However, Winston was still very different compared to the big shots standing at the door.
The guests in the hall did not know Tristan and the others. They only knew Winston. Therefore, when John, Brooklyn, and the others heard that Winston had arrived, they all stood up and walked toward the restaurant entrance to welcome him.
When the big shots standing beside Tristan saw this, they were puzzled.
“Tristan, what’s going on with the Phillips Family? You’re such a big shot, but they make you wait at the door. And a nobody like Winston Lawson is being greeted by so many people. If I remember correctly, the Lawson Family that Winston Lawson is from had some relationship with you, right? That’s why they have today’s achievements, right?” Someone beside Tristan asked him in confusion.
“That’s right. Is the Phillips Family stupid? Don’t they know about your relationship with Winston Lawson?” The other boss also said.
“Winston Lawson doesn’t even have the right to lift his shoes in front of Tristan. It’s fine if the Phillips Family doesn’t curry favor with our Tristan, but they grovel at Winston’s feet. This is so funny!” The bodyguard beside Tristan frowned and muttered.
Tristan was frowning and was very puzzled because he still could not figure out what was happening.
Initially, when he saw that the Phillips Family was indifferent to so many big shots, he thought that the Phillips Family was so arrogant because they had gotten onto Connor’s good list.
But now, they were flattering Winston Lawson. This made Tristan a little confused..
