Lord Death Is Now Back Home by Chris novel Chapter 16

Chapter 16 Mester Manor

The old house of the Collins family had been abandoned for years.

There were cobwebs everywhere.

"It's all Chris's fault, or we wouldn't have to live in such a poor place."

Susan said angrily.

"You should ask your father when we can go back to Jefferson Manor."

John kept silent all the time. Susan couldn't help urging John to beg his father.

John shook his head and sighed, "He won't agree. He will never allow us back since he has expelled us."

Susan cried and cursed, "Chris Shelby, you bastard! You made us suffer like this!"

She gritted her teeth and put all the blame on Chris.

Just at this moment, a military vehicle drove over.

Chris and Esther got out of the vehicle.

Susan cursed Chris as soon as she saw him, "Chris Shelby, bastard! Why are you here? Look! We are suffering just because of you!"

Chris said calmly, "Mom, I'm here to take you to the banquet held by James Mester."

"Banquet?"

Both Susan and John were stunned as they heard this.

Susan asked, "Do you really think that pure-gold invitation was for you?"

"Of course, it is. James Mester gave it to me himself. Don't you believe it?"

Chris asked with a frown.

"Huh!"

Susan snorted, "He might have made a mistake. It will be a shame on us if we are not allowed in."

Chris said unhappily, "Mom, you should trust me."

"You are such a loser, with no money and no good fame. Why did James Mester invite you to the banquet?"

Susan didn't believe it at all.

Chris was poor and infamous, while James was the richest man in East Coast.

How could they know each other?

There was a huge gap between them.

Chris persuaded Susan, "How can you know if he has made a mistake if we don't go there? Don't you want to attend Mr. Mester's banquet?"

"I..."

Susan began to hesitate after she heard Chris's words.

That was the banquet held by Mr. Mester! Definitely, she wanted to go.

However, she was not qualified to be invited.

But what if James Mester really wanted to invite Chris?

Susan was hesitant. Esther also persuaded her, "Mom, please trust Chris. Those people don't trust him because they don't understand him, but he is your son-in-law. You have to trust him."

In fact, Esther also thought it was impossible.

But since Chris said so, as his wife, she had to believe her husband.

Esther's words convinced Susan.

After hesitating for a while, Susan finally nodded, "Alright! Chris, I'll trust you this time, but if you dare to fool us, I'll ask Esther to divorce you."

Chris just smiled and didn't say anything.

"You can go there first. I have something else to do."

After Esther and her family got into the vehicle, Chris suddenly said to them.

Susan hurriedly asked, "Are you running?"

"Don't worry. I'll be there soon."

"I can't run anywhere. After all, I'm Esther's husband. Where can I run?"
