A great crowd of people surrounded the legendary Sir Jian. They couldn't believe that such a super important figure attended this party. They were very impressed at Jihoon's capability of inviting such a personage.

The Wu family arrived, but they couldn't squeeze through the sea of people surrounding Sir Kwon. Nobody made way for them because their status wasn't really higher than any of these people.

Besides, the guests' impression of them lowered after witnessing their crass behaviour earlier. Some of the ladies even started looking down and ridiculing Eunchae behind her back, calling her a desperate man-chaser.

The elders came shortly after. Compared to the Wus, the guests parted and made way for them because they were Kims, the hosts of this party.

"Welcome, Sir Kwon! It's an honour to our entire Kim family to receive your presence tonight. I am Kim Jufang, Jihoon's uncle and an elder of the Kim family."

Meng and the other elders also introduced themselves, including some of the younger heads of the various branch families.

Grandpa Kwon only greeted them out of politeness. He wasn't interested in chatting with any of them. To his eyes, most of the Kims were self-important, haughty people who foolishly thought that they were better than others. If his Kwon family and the Manobans didn't rise up to where they were now, these Kims would probably look down on him now.

It was an open secret in high society that the "aristocratic" Kims used to disdain business families like the Kwons and the Manobans. It was only when they transformed into a business family themselves that they began to treat other successful business families with respect.

Although his beloved granddaughter didn't tell him anything bad about them, he learned from his own sources how the elders and the other members of the Kim family badly treated her. Granted, he discovered that his granddaughter used to be such a wild and disrespectful spoiled brat, but she was just a kid back then! That was just part of youth! Even his Jiyong used to be so wild and happy-go-lucky before his accident as well.

That was why he didn't have any good opinions about these snooty Kims. Despite his obvious disinterest, the elders continued trying hard to engage him in conversation.

Finally, he was relieved from the annoying flies when Jihoon, Jia and Donghwi arrived.

Everyone's eyes almost popped out of their heads when the three acted like old friends with Sir Kwon. The business legend also seemed to transform into a gaily old man whose voice and laughter boomed throughout the place. All the people watched in awe at the group. Jihoon's status was instantly elevated in their eyes. They couldn't wait to use him to get close to the business legend as well.

As for the elders, they looked very proud. Their chests puffed out, feeling superior that their family was connected to such an extremely important figure.

Grandpa Kwon, Jihoon, Jia and Donghwi continued to chat with each other in their own little group. They acted as if nobody was around them and weren't the centre of attention.

"Where's my beloved granddaughter? I want to know! I was told that she will be attending today, that's why I came!" Grandpa Kwon's voice boomed.

"She just went somewhere with her sister and friends. They should be back soon," Jia said.

The people around them heard his booming words. They were very surprised by what he just said.

"Does Sir Kwon have a granddaughter? Maybe my memory is failing me because I don't remember him having one," someone commented.

"I don't think he has a granddaughter, but I know that he has a grandson who reportedly fell from a mountain and almost died."

"Yeah, I heard it was a ski accident. Tsk tsk. How careless. But about this granddaughter, I'm so surprised. Oh, I'm so curious what she looks like!"
