Chapter 165 He is the Young Master of Hughes Family
As the darkness faded and Steve finally saw Mr. Ward clearly.
Kaboom!
Steve felt like a lightning bolt had struck him. For a short moment, his mind was blank and a huge wave
stirred in his heart.
This was… Mr. Ward?! Over these years, Steve tried repeatedly to visit the head of the Hughes family.
Each time the person who greeted him at the Hughes family was Mr. Ward. He knew Mr. Ward rather
well. Mr. Ward was the most trusted servant of the head of the Hughes family!
But… why was he here?
Steve was dazed and his face turned red, his breathing quickened and his neck tensed up. Suddenly
he tripped and almost fell but thankfully Rosie held onto him.
Not far away, Artist Warnock looked on in surprise while Minister Mable and Director Lansing
exchanged looks and laughed. As Steve’s good friends, they of course knew how much Steve wanted
to meet the Hughes family.
But such fate…
“Mable, you were right.” Artist Warnock knew about Steve’s desires but he didn’t know Mr. Ward.
Minister Mable laughed and rubbed his chin and said, “Steve’s long-time desires had been achieved by
his daughter. Don’t you think that’s amusing?”
“Desires?” Artist Warnock looked at Steve and Rosie on the stage.
Under the spotlights, Jack held onto Amber’s waist and Amber held onto Sophie. Mr. Ward stood
quietly on one side and looked at the approaching Steve and Rosie.
Steve’s footsteps were unsteady and if not for his wife, he might not be able to walk.
Mr. Ward was only the trusted servant of the head of the Hughes family. But he was very clear of this
servant’s status. In the Hughes family, only this servant could represent the head of the family to carry
out his instructions.
Doubt, shock, disbelief, and all sorts of feelings stirred in his mind. Unknowingly, Steve’s forehead
started to perspire.
“Dad, mom, this is Jack’s mother.” Amber smiled, welcomed her parents and introduced them.
“Nice to meet you, I’m Jack’s mother, Sophie.” Sophie smiled warmly.
“Nice to meet you, Sophie, from today onwards we are one family.” Rosie maintained her composure
and replied Sophie.
Each time she came back with Steve, Steve went alone to meet the Hughes family. Thus, Rosie did not
know Mr. Ward.
“Uncle and Auntie, I hope that you’ll accept my apologies for what happened just now.” Jack apologized
because of the incident with the photographs. Amber’s parents must have been angry with the issue.
Which parents wouldn’t be protective of their daughter?
“It’s alright now that the misunderstanding had been resolved.”
Rosie smiled and said, “Jack, since you have proposed to Amber, allow me to remind you that from
today onwards, both of you must cherish, trust, support, and love each other. I hope that you’ll
remember what you said about ‘never will we part’.” These were said seriously and without hesitation.
Not only was it a reminder, but it was also a warning.
Jack smiled and nodded.
Rosie now realized that Steve had been behaving strangely with his wobbly legs and tensed neck,
“Hey, your daughter was just being proposed to. Aren’t you going to say something to Jack’s family and
Amber?”
Steve braced himself and firmly nodded, “Yes, I do need to say something.”
Before saying, he bent and composed himself. Steve’s physique was tall and strong. When he bent
himself, it looked kind of silly.
Then, to everyone’s surprise, Steve stepped forward a couple of steps toward the silent Mr. Ward. He
extended both of his hands and smiled radiantly.
“Mr. Ward, it’s so unexpected to meet you here.” His tone and actions were full of humility. Everyone
looked stupefied at this scene.
Not too far from the stage, Artist Warnock was shocked and reproached, “What’s wrong with Steve? He
was supposed to meet Jack’s parents, why did he go and greet the old man standing to the side?”
“This Mister is out of the ordinary!” Minister Mable laughed.
On the stage, Rosie was shocked and came to her senses. She softly yelled to remind Steve, “Steve,
watch your manners!”
They were on the stage to meet Jack’s mother but instead of greeting Jack’s mother, he went to greet
the old man standing one side which was totally rude!
But then, Steve became stern and said, “Woman, what do you know?” Rosie turned pale and didn’t
know what to say.
Mr. Ward also looked at Jack and Sophie awkwardly and then laughed as he shook Steve’s hands, “Mr.
Knight, it’s been a long time since we last met.”
Steve suddenly became excited and elated and said, “You’re too kind, actually this time…”
Before Steve could finish, Mr. Ward turned towards Jack and bowed slightly, “Master Hughes, the
proposal has ended, we should be leaving soon.”
Kaboom!
When he said that, it was like the entire place thundered. Steve stood with his eyes wide open and his Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
entire body trembled. Even with his vast experience and temperament, it was difficult to conceal his
shock. He turned and looked at Jack in awe.
Master? Mr. Ward… actually addressed Jack as Master?
Good lord!
Steve’s heartbeat raced and felt as if it would jump out of his chest. He even felt as though he was
going faint. Someone whom he looked up to, just addressed his son-in-law …. as Master?!
Very soon he realized that Jack also had the last name Hughes and Mr. Ward was the servant of the
Hughes family who just addressed Jack as Master.
That meant that … Jack… Suddenly Steve had a horrifying thought that caused him to feel surreal.
“Okay, then let’s go home.” Jack smiled and looked at Amber.
Amber looked down coyly and then tiptoed to whisper into Jack’s ear, “My parents are still here. I’ll go
home with you in the future.”
This silly girl… Jack smiled and rubbed his nose.
He looked and nodded at Rosie and the shocked Steve, “Uncle and Auntie, this event is over. We’ll go
back first. Today’s event is very big and there will be a lot of media when you go down the hill. Please
pardon the inconvenience and don’t be surprised. Tomorrow please come over to my place for a
banquet.”
“Okay, okay. I understand. We’ll be there on time.” Rosie smiled and nodded.
Tonight’s grand event attracted all sorts of traditional and social media. If they held a banquet that
night, they would be hounded and inconvenienced by the media. Jack instructed Corbin to settle the
subsequent arrangements. He then entered the Rolls Royce with his mother while Mr. Ward. Brent
drove the car.
On the stage, Steve was still stunned, flushed in red and motionless. He continued to look at the Rolls
Royce as it drove off.
Rosie’s expression darkened and reprimanded Steve, “Steve, where were your manners?”
Steve didn’t seem to hear her and muttered, “Dragon-in-law… he is really an incredible son-in-law…”
“Dad, what are you talking about?” Amber looked at Steve shyly. She knew that her father was referring
to Jack but wasn’t he exaggerating too much?
Then, Steve turned and stared blankly at Rosie, “Honey, give me a slap!”
