Chapter 185


    Looks of shock appeared on everyone’s faces.


    Especially Caitlyn who was seized by terror.


    Everyone was well aware of Meredith’s stern and stiff personality. She couldn’t tolerate people who


    behaved in a boisterous manner like Levi.


    Someone with a military police background like Russell would be well-liked by her.


    Besides, how could a mere foundling gain a foothold in a wealthy family?


    Meredith gave Levi a deep look before she left, obviously disappointed in him.


    Robert let out a deep sigh before following suit,menting about how Zoey, given her status would


    marry such a husband.


    “What the hell are you doing? You’re challenging the authority of the olddy. She hates people who


    fool around like you the most!”


    Bailey and Pam red daggers at Levi.


    “You’ve ruined us! The olddy has finally epted us because of Zoey, but you just had to provoke


    her again, didn’t you?!”


    Caitlyn almost cried from exasperation.


    Would the olddy have epted us immediately today if our son-inw weren’t Levi, but someone


    else?


    Aaron hugged Caitlyn. “Honey, don’t cry. We’ll regain our dignity and make the olddy acknowledge


    us when the birthday banquet officially startster.”


    “I supposed that’s all we can do.”


    Caitlyn was physically and mentally frustrated.


    Shortly after, most of the guests had arrived, apart from the big shots.


    Robert and Meredith personally greeted them at the door, with Levi and the others following behind


    them.


    Soon, several cars marked with the SWAT logo appeared.


    Russell was the first toe down. He ran to the back, opened the car door, and greeted the leaders


    one by one.


    “Grandpa, Grandma, let me introduce you. This is Shane Young, the captain of the Special Security


    Unit; Hugo Gibson, the vice-captain; Frankie Wimmer, the politicalmissar; Quincy King, the vice-


    captain of the City Patrol Unit…”


    Russell introduced them to about seven to eight leaders in one breath.


    There were about a dozen more leaders behind who were at the same level as Russell, all of whom


    held official positions such as team leaders.


    Perry led everyone forward, extending their blessings, “Mrs. ck, may you be blessed with longevity


    and great prosperity…”


    “Wee, Captain Chapman. Wee…” Robert and Meredith grinned from ear to ear, seeing the


    support of so many leaders.


    Keane and Quintus chuckled. “You really outdid yourself there, Russell!”


    “Mr. and Mrs. ck, I would like tomend Russell,” Perry said. “He has so much potential! I’ll make


    him vice-captain next year! The ck family will have something to be proud of again.”


    Hearing thoseplimentsing straight from Perry’s mouth, Meredith and Robert were all the more


    exhrated as they looked at Russell with satisfaction.


    “Haha, isn’t that a given, Captain Chapman! Russell has always been the pride of the ck family,”


    said Meredith unabashedly.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    This made everyone envious, especially Caitlyn and Aaron.


    How nice would it be if Mrs. ck could be proud of them someday?


    Too bad they couldn’t do it by themselves and could only rely on their daughter and their son-inw.


    But could a useless son-inw like Levi ever make them proud?


    Never!


    “Grandpa, Grandma, I was going to invite the big shots from the Warzone, but there’s only so much I


    can do,” Russell said humbly.


    “This is more than enough, Russell,” Meredith smiled approvingly. “It’s enough that Captain Chapman


    and the others could make it!”


    “Indeed! With you, Russell, plus Jennie and Logan, it’s the right degree of pomp!” Keane and Quintus


    bothughed.
