Chapter 644: The Wife-Showoff Maniac
Isabella Weaver looked down at her golden high heels and turned to ask Harry Hunter, "Do we need to be back by midnight?"Harry Hunter was admiring his lovely wife’s beauty and didn’t react immediately, "Hmm?"
"I feel like I’m in Cinderella’s fairy tale right now."
Harry Hunter chuckled, "These are all bought with real money, not magic, they’ll never disappear. My Isabella is a real princess."
The luxurious carriage set off, causing a stir and quite a crowd of onlookers.
Isabella Weaver had no choice but to pull down the semi-transparent curtain to cover her face.
Fortunately, the mansion was remote, and the distance to the banquet venue was short, so they reached there in about ten minutes without causing a major traffic jam.
Harry Hunter held her hand and helped her out of the carriage.
The women around who also came to the banquet were filled with envy.
Compared to arriving by a modern car, they all desired to ride in such a luxurious carriage at least once to indulge their girlish hearts.
This banquet was attended by elites from the political and business circles, and was of quite a high standard.
The moment Harry Hunter appeared, everyone stepped forward to greet him.
This was the first time he brought his wife to such an event, so naturally, everyone couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Isabella Weaver.
She was remarkably beautiful, with an exceptional presence, dressed in a pale golden off-shoulder gown that added to her glamour and elegance. Her excessively youthful face exuded a poise and maturity beyond her age.
Everyone was full of praise.
No wonder she captured Young Master Hunter’s heart, she truly is an extraordinary beauty.
Everyone had heard, to some extent, about Harry Hunter’s reputation as a doting husband. They had seen glimpses of his affection for his wife in news and newspapers, so they wisely refrained from praising Harry Hunter himself and focused their compliments on Isabella Weaver.
Isabella Weaver herself felt embarrassed by all the compliments, thinking they were overdoing it.
But Harry Hunter didn’t find it problematic at all. No matter who praised Isabella Weaver, he would nod appreciatively, "You’re right."
He took Isabella Weaver around the venue, introducing her to various business partners, families associated with the Hunter Family, and led her into the core circle of the Hunters.
Isabella Weaver attentively memorized everyone’s names and features, diligently acting not like she was at a banquet, but like a student waiting for her teacher’s assessment, afraid of not being outstanding enough and disgracing the teacher.
Teacher Hunter didn’t feel any disgrace at all; he was very proud inside, wishing he could introduce his wife to everyone. However, he was also worried about tiring Isabella Weaver, so he refrained.
He sat with Isabella Weaver at a table, got her some food, and attempted to feed her, but Isabella Weaver stopped him.
Isabella Weaver was both touched and helpless. It was one thing for him to feed her at home, but in such a grand occasion, how could he still do that!
Some people wanted to come over and chat with Harry Hunter, but David stepped forward, blocked them, whispered a few words, and sent them away, diligently guarding the area, not letting anyone disturb.
Until Thomas Turner approached.
Harry Hunter spoke, "David, let him through."
David nodded, withdrew his hand, and allowed passage.
Thomas Turner was overjoyed!
The previous people were all turned away, but he alone received permission! With such respect from Young Master Hunter, his status in the family would surely rise later!
His fingers even trembled slightly!
Tonight, he didn’t come empty-handed.
Knowing that Harry Hunter would attend this banquet, he went through great lengths to obtain an invitation, brought a gift, and traveled all the way from A City just to meet Harry Hunter.
