Chapter 709 Today marked the final day of the Reckoning Toast .

Raymond had never expected Andrew to show him such blatant disregard , showing up this late and making such an entrance .

In the center of the hotels grand hall , Winston sat slouched in his chair , looking thoroughly bored .

Every now and then , locals from Jayrodale came over to toast him , but he either ignored them or responded with dismissive nods .

It was clear he didnt take anyone here seriously .

Standing stiffly behind Winston was an older man with a lean frame and a stone cold expression .

He was known as Jason Lowell , one of the Wright familys top enforcers sent as Winstons personal bodyguard .

Raymond approached with a polite smile .

Mr.

Lowell , youve been standing there all night .

Please , sit down and rest for a bit .

Jason responded flatly , Mr.

Chapman , just handle your business .

Ill handle mine .

Raymond bowed slightly , eager to please .

Of course , Mr.

Lowell .

Youre absolutely right .

I just worry that Andrew might show up with Jayrodales underground forces .

If that happens , I might need to rely on you .

Jason let out a cold snort .

Ill step in when necessary .

But Jayrodale is a tiny town theres barely anyone here worth my effort .

Raymond nodded in agreement , plastering on a sycophantic grin .

Mr.

Lowell , youre absolutely right .

Nobody here can match you .

And that Andrew … hes not even worth mentioning .

Winston tapped his glass on the table , his patience running thin .

Where the hell is this Andrew guy ? I heard hes some notorious sugar baby who lives off rich women .

Nothing disgusts me more than a man who cant stand on his own two feet .

Raymond gave a quick laugh .

Dont worry , Mr.

Wright .

I just heard from Stephen theyre on their way .

Winston grunted and swept his gaze across the room .

Suddenly , his eyes widened , and a lecherous grin spread across his face .

Well , well … now thats a surprise , he muttered .

Didnt expect to see that kind of beauty here .

Raymond followed Winstons gaze and immediately chuckled knowingly .

Hes been eager to meet you .

Finley raised his glass , giving Winston a knowing smirk .

Mr.

Wright , long time no see .

We havent … crossed swords since that night in Blumedale .

Winston let out a sleazy chuckle .

Youve always had a quick draw , Finley .

Makes the rest of us look bad .

Finley tilted his glass toward him .

Nonsense .

Your … technique is famous .

Short and thin , but deadly when it counts .

Winstons eyes darkened , but he let the jab slide , turning his attention to Christina and Aspen instead .

He straightened his posture and flashed what he believed was a charming smile .

Good evening , ladies .

My name is Winston .

Winston Wright , from the Wright family .

He practically growled the last two words , emphasizing his family name .
