However, Darian couldn't figure out who Maria was.

This beautiful girl was pushing Anthony's wheelchair. Could she be his personal assistant or something?

Hiring a beauty to be his personal assistant seemed exactly like the type of thing that the son of a rich family would do.

Darian shook his head in disdain and quickly lost interest in Maria, thinking that it was a pity that she was nothing more than a personal assistant.

Just when he was about to look away, he noticed Maria rummaging through her bag and taking out a gift.

Was that the birthday gift that Anthony had prepared for Master Geoffrey?

In that case, it had to be an expensive one. Had Anthony asked his personal assistant to give the gift to Vincent on his behalf since he was in a wheelchair?

While Darian was watching the scene with confusion, Maria put the gift box on the tea table in front of Vincent.

... she said indifferently.

“Thank you," Vincent replied, grinning from ear to ear.

Darian couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Just like that? A simple “Happy birthday"?

This girl was an indisputable beauty, but she wasn't cultured at all.

99.08

She had come to the birthday party of a man celebrating his 8@th birthday, but all she could say was, “Happy Birthday"?

Darian frowned in total disapproval. As a man of such grand stature, Vincent didn't take orders from anyone, no matter how powerful and influential they were. The Wilson family was one of the few families that shared a good relationship with Vincent. But now, it seemed very likely that Vincent would distance himself from them because of this stupid, rude young girl.

She behaved Like a low class, crass, uneducated girl who had never been taught good manners.

In Darian's eyes, the way Maria spoke and carried herself was unacceptable. Her deportment Left much to be desired.

And he reckoned Anthony would fire Maria pretty soon.

"Old man! Why don't you open it?" Maria urged in a rough manner. Darian was stunned at the manner in which she addressed Vincent. He widened his eyes and pricked his ear with his right little finger. After removing a big, brown ball of earwax, Darian was sure that he didn't mishear her.
