Chapter 216<\/p>\n
Marlon and Trent exchanged some pleasantries with Gavino and were about to head inside.<\/p>\n
More guests were arriving at the gate.<\/p>\n
When Gavino saw the new arrival, he said, \u201cOh Rayburn, you finally made it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGavino, happy birthday. Wishing you a long and happy life,\u201d Rayburn exclaimed cheerfully as he entered, clearly delighted to see Gavino.<\/p>\n
Everyone turned toward the gate when they heard the voice.<\/p>\n
Rayburn and Jason walked in together.<\/p>\n
Marlon and Trent immediately recognized the visitor as Rayburn, the current head of the distinguished Muller family.<\/p>\n
In addition to leading the Muller family, Rayburn was skilled in medicine, astrology, and the study of ancient scripts, making him a true master of traditional arts.<\/p>\n
However, over the years, the Muller family had been so low\u2013profile that people mainly remembered their great wealth and profound background.<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you Rayburn, the head of the Muller family?\u201d Trent couldn\u2019t help but ask when he saw Rayburn.<\/p>\n
Rayburn politely replied, \u201cYes, that\u2019s me.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHello, Mr. Muller. I didn\u2019t expect to see the renowned head of the Muller family at Gavino\u2019s birthday party,\u201d Marlon agreed from the side.<\/p>\n
Jason was introducing Rayburn to those around them since he usually kept to himself and had been away from Betrico for a while, making it hard to remember everyone\u2019s names right away<\/p>\n
After Jason finished, Rayburn quickly said, \u201cOh, it\u2019s Mr. Taylor, the great master, and Mr. Taylor, the principal of Betrico University. It\u2019s a pleasure to meet both of you.\u201d<\/p>\n
After exchanging some pleasantries, Gavino finally noticed the impressive\u2013looking young man standing next to Rayburn. His eyes brightened with interest. \u201cOh, Rayburn, is this your grandson? He truly has the charm you had in your younger days.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s right. This is my grandson, Jason,\u201d Rayburn replied.<\/p>\n
Jason greeted Gavino, \u201cGavino, I\u2019m Jason Muller. Wishing you a happy birthday.\u201d<\/p>\n
Gavino nodded with satisfaction. \u201cThanks. You\u2019re such a charming young man.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere\u2019s my great\u2013granddaughter, you know, the one who was right next to me just a moment ago? Where did she go?<\/p>\n
\u201cXenia? Where\u2019s Xenia?\u201d<\/p>\n
Marlon pointed behind the pillar. \u201cXenia is over there, behind the pillar. What\u2019s going on with her today? She\u2019s usually so lively, but now she\u2019s acting strange.\u201d<\/p>\n
Just then, Truman walked by. \u201cXenia, what are you doing here? I\u2019m so busy, and you\u2019re hiding out here.\u201d<\/p>\n
He pulled her out, and upon seeing the crowd in front of them, he said, \u201cWow, everyone\u2019s here. Hello to all the esteemed elders. I\u2019m Truman, Gavino\u2019s direct grandson.\u201d<\/p>\n

Xenia still had her head down. When Gavino saw her come out le gently pulled her forward and said, \u201cRayburn and Jason, this is my great\u2013granddaughter, also the beloved granddaughter of Marlon from the Taylor family.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then Gavino looked at Xenia, \u201cXenia, this is Jason, the guy I mentioned. He\u2019s currently working in Betrico. You two should get to know each other, maybe become friends or something.\u201d<\/p>\n
Gavino was in the middle of his sentence when Xenia, catching sight of Jason, blushed a deep shade of pink. Without a word, she clapped her hand over her face and dashed away.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy did she run off like that? She\u2019s so rude. Sorry about that, Rayburn and Jason,\u201d Gavino said, feeling embarrassed.<\/p>\n
Rayburn waved it off. \u201cNo worries. She\u2019s so cute. She doesn\u2019t seem as rowdy as you said. Quite well\u2013behaved and all.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nearby, Truman sneered in his heart, \u2018Well\u2013behaved? It\u2019s clear what\u2019s happening. My grandpa can\u2019t do anything with me and he\u2019s trying to set Xenia up with a boyfriend. That\u2019s great. No one will bother me from now on.<\/p>\n
Jason watched Xenia running off into the distance, adjusted his gold\u2013rimmed glasses on his nose, and flashed a charming smile.<\/p>\n
Once far enough, Xenia leaned against a wall, her heart still racing. She lightly tapped her forehead. \u201cXenia, can\u2019t you be a bit braver? It\u2019s just a guy, though he\u2019s the aloof type and your cup of tea!<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy did you have to run so far away? We promised we\u2019d never go on blind dates and wouldn\u2019t accept setups.\u201d<\/p>\n
Xenia sighed after speaking and then sneaked a glance toward the courtyard, gently rubbing her slightly warm cheeks. \u201cHow can he be so dashing?<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, my gosh. How can I be so superficial? How can I only judge a person by his look?\u201d<\/p>\n
At the entrance, the guests Gavino invited started to arrive gradually. Rita also came with Yulia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-241","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/241","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=241"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
