The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky

Chapter 1386
A gigantic stage was set up in the center of the courtyard, flanked by red curtains. A banner with the number 80 on it was draped
across the stage with golden streamers and flowers.
A red carpet ran down the center toward the stage flanked by rows of beautiful bouquets and floral arrangements that made the
entire set-up look even more luxurious. Rows and rows of teakwood chairs were arranged in front of the stage, covered by red
drapes with golden embroidery of the number 80 across their backs.
The entire place was glamorous and even more elegant than ever!
By the time Leon and the rest arrived, the entire place was already packed with guests.
Not only after they arrived, but Patrick also emerged from backstage, grinning from ear to ear as he was accompanied onstage
by Amy and the rest of the elders.
The host got onstage and declared, "Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the eightieth birthday party of Mister Patrick Scammell
here. Let us give a round of applause to the birthday boy-"
With that, he burst into a round of applause, which was quickly followed suit by the guests.
Firecrackers were set off to initiate the joyous occasion while Patrick was welcomed onstage.
"We wish you a lifetime of great health, longevity, happiness, and prosperity, Elder Scammell! Now, let us kick off the celebration
with a round of birthday wishes from the family," The host said.
This was a ceremony that included all the younger generations of the family, who were supposed to take turns getting onstage,
bowing to their elder, and proffering their gifts as a symbol of their respect.
This was started by the eldest son, which was Damian, in this case.
Julie wheeled her husband onstage.
"Father, I know that you've always taken a fancy toward antiques, and coupled with the fact that you love tea, I hereby gift you an
antique tea set, passed down from our ancestors. I wish you a lifetime of longevity and happiness-" Damian announced as he
brought out his gift—an exquisite set of clay pottery.

"An antique tea set from ancient times? This is a splendid gift!"
"You're right. Although the teapot by itself isn't too expensive, just a few hundred thousand dollars, the fact that Mister Scammell
managed to gather the whole set makes it all the more priceless."
The audience was in awe of Damian's gift. This kind of antique tea set originated from the ancient ages, but unfortunately, due to
the lack of industrialization during those times, most of the pottery got destroyed, and it was extremely hard to find an entire tea
set that was intact, making it worth millions!
"Splendid, splendid!" Patrick gasped, a gleeful smile crossing his face as he took the gift from Damian. It was clear that he was
extremely happy with the gift he received!
The next person in line was Eugene, Damian's cousin, and Nigel's father.
Eugene's present was an intricate vase from the golden ages worth several hundred thousand dollars. Although this gift was not
as thoughtful as Damian's, Eugene was only Patrick's nephew, not his son, and it was a reasonable gift considering their
relationship.
