Chapter 1344: A Present

Chapter 1344: A Present

Connor didn't expect Jace to make the first move against him, so his eyes flashed with a hint of interest.

If Jace was facing an ordinary person instead of Connor, then Jace's plan might have succeeded. Unfortunately, the person he met was Connor.

Although Connor looked thin and weak and did not have much strength, he was a martial artist.

The gap between a martial artist and an ordinary person was definitely not something that could be made up for through training.

In order to prevent Jace from reacting, Connor did not use force, but silently endured Jace's strength first. After all, Jace's strength was nothing to Connor. If Connor suddenly exerted force, he could definitely crush Jace's bones in an instant. However, Connor felt that it was not necessary to do so now. After all, they had just met. If Connor crushed Jace's hand, it would make people think that it was Connor's problem.

Seeing that Connor did not resist, Jace revealed a smug smile. He continued to increase his force on Connor and said with a smile, "Mr. McDonald, you're still studying? What does your family do?"

"My family runs a small business…"

Connor replied indifferently.

"I see."

Jace nodded thoughtfully.

In the next second, Connor suddenly began to slowly exert his strength.

However, when Jace felt Connor's strength, his eyes were filled with disdain because he felt that Connor was weak.

But just a few seconds later, the expression on Jace's face began to change. From the initial confidence to one of shock, and finally, it turned into a ferocious expression.

Because he realized that Connor was stronger than he thought. In fact, he was so strong that Jace was in disbelief. No matter how hard Jace tried, Connor did not budge. He began to struggle, but Connor still had no intention of letting go of Jace.

Yvette, who was standing at the side, naturally knew what was going on. She had a smug expression on her face as she felt that her asking Connor to come was the right decision.

A few seconds later, Jace finally couldn't stand the pain in his hand and screamed instinctively.

Everyone looked at Jace, and Connor let go of Jace's hand with a smile, then asked Jace softly, "Mr. Sackmann, what's wrong with you?"

"It... It's nothing. I accidentally twisted my ankle just now..."

Jace quickly explained to the crowd, then looked at Connor and said, "Mr. McDonald is really not an ordinary person. No wonder you're able to woo Yvette…"

"Haha..."

Connor looked at Jace and smiled but didn't say anything.

Because he had suffered a loss with Connor, Jace did not dare to continue making things difficult for Connor, so he turned around and left.

Yvette turned to look at Connor and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be so powerful. You made Jace suffer a loss just now…"

"This is nothing. Something better awaits!"

Connor replied calmly.

At this moment, most of the people attending Kaitlyn's birthday party had arrived, so Kaitlyn walked straight to the center of the private room.

Today, Kaitlyn was wearing a light blue evening gown. She looked very beautiful. Moreover, celebrities like her had undergone professional training. Her walking posture and temperament were very proper, giving people the feeling that there was a huge gap between her and ordinary people.

Although Kaitlyn's looks and figure were inferior to Yvette's in all aspects, she was definitely considered one of the top female celebrities in the entertainment industry. Her net worth was not low, and her looks and temperament were pretty good. Therefore, there were still many male celebrities who were interested in Kaitlyn.

Just now, Kaitlyn had also noticed the situation between Connor and Jace. Kaitlyn was Yvette's best friend. She naturally knew how much Yvette hated Jace, but for various reasons, she could not go too far when it came to dealing with Jace. This matter had always been Yvette's biggest worry. However, today, Yvette had brought her boyfriend here. With Jace's temperament, he would definitely make a move against Connor.

Kaitlyn didn't like people like Jace either, but she didn't have any background, so she didn't dare to offend Jace. She could only turn a blind eye.

"Thank you all for coming to my birthday party today..."

Kaitlyn said to everyone with a smile.

"Kaitlyn, happy birthday!"

Jace smiled and exclaimed, then took out the present he had prepared in advance and handed it over.

Jace gifted Kaitlyn a Bulgari watch. Everyone praised Jace for his generosity after seeing it. However, Jace only wanted to show off in front of Yvette.

Everyone also took out their presents and handed them to Kaitlyn. After all, these people were all celebrities, and their income was quite high, so the present they gave were not cheap.

All kinds of luxury goods appeared one after another, and Connor felt a little awkward. After all, he didn't prepare any present. Moreover, Connor didn't know Kaitlyn, so he didn't think about preparing a gift at all.

However, just as Connor was at a loss for what to do, Yvette suddenly reached out and tugged at Connor. She then brought Connor to Kaitlyn.

"Kaitlyn, happy birthday. This is the present Connor and I prepared for you!"

As Yvette spoke, she took out a car key and handed it to Kaitlyn.

When Kaitlyn saw the car keys, she became a little excited. She said in disbelief, "Yvette, why are you giving me such an expensive present?"

"I know you've always liked this car, so I asked Connor to buy one for you!"

Yvette replied calmly.

However, what Yvette meant was very obvious. She was trying to say that Connor had paid for the car. In that case, Connor would not have to feel awkward for not preparing a present.

"Thank you, Mr. McDonald!"

Kaitlyn said happily to Connor.

"You're welcome!"

Connor smiled faintly.

Jace, who was not far away, saw this scene. His eyes flashed with a trace of ruthlessness, and he began to think about how he would teach Connor a lesson later.

After everyone had given their presents, they sat down and waited for the waiter to serve the dishes.

These celebrity gatherings were very different from those of the rich. The rich usually liked to hold a cocktail party or something so that it was convenient for everyone to chat in private.

But this time, Kaitlyn had organized a dinner party. There was a total of six tables in the private room, and each table could accommodate five people. There was a total of thirty people.

Everyone was seated according to their status. Connor and Yvette naturally sat at the first table, and Jace was also at the same table.
