StartNovelChapter 1428 The Banquet
"All better, no more pain," Micah said, flexing his arm muscles on purpose. "Check out these guns!"
Mia cheered, "Wow, that's awesome! Daddy, you're awesome!"
"| can practice piano with you now." Micah gave Mia's cheek a playful pinch and then hugged Nathan. "And
Nathan, | can play soccer with you too."
He turned to Noah and said gently, "And Noah, if you have any new problems, just letknow."
Sadie, worried Micah might be uncomfortable crouching for too long, quickly stepped in to shoo the kids away.
"Alright. Noah, Nathan, Mia, take your cousins on a tour. It's their first there, and you guys are the little
hosts, so show them around."
"Okay!" Nathan and Mia nodded eagerly and took the three little girls to explore the yard.

Noah looked at Micah, hesitated, but then said, "Dad, I'll go help with the girls too."
Micah gave him a gentle pat on the butt and laughed. "Go on, have fun."
Noah ran off with a smile, but inside, he felt sad. He knew Sadie was sending them away on purpose, and he also
knew Micah's illness hadn't really improved.
Micah asked, "Why'd you send them away?" As he stood up, he felt dizzy and almost fell, but Sadie caught him
just in time.
To calm him down, she pretended to be relaxed and said, "See, your leg's gone numb, right?"
She added, "Think about it. After that vase hit you, you lost so much blood. Now you're anemic. Of course, you'd
feel dizzy after crouching for so long."
They both knew it was because of his weakened body, but neither of them said it out loud.
"You're not old yet, why are you so naggy?" Micah rolled his eyes at her but then put his arm around her shoulder
and whispered suggestively, "I've got my strength back. Tonight, we can..." "Andrew and Annika are back," Sadie
suddenly interrupted him and hurried over.
Micah's words were left hanging, and he stood there awkwardly.
But seeing Sadie happily greeting the people from Hillside Villa for the dinner party, he smiled. Her happiness
was his happiness.
After everyone worked hard to prepare, the dinner party finally began.
Tonight, for a rare occasion, Micah invited the bodyguards and servants to join them at the table. He raised his
glass and said, "Thanks for all your hard work!"
In his twenty-eight years, he had never been so approachable.
The bodyguards and servants who didn't know the full story were touched, while those who did felt endless
SOIToW.

They knew Micah was doing this because he didn't have much tleft. He wanted to thank these loyal people
before he left.
Behind this seemingly happy occasion was endless sadness. But he bore it all alone, not wanting anyone to
know.
Sadie felt a pang of sorrow but still raised her glass with a smile.
Andrew and a few informed attendants did the same, pretending to know nothing.
Everyone was flattered and quickly stood up to respond. "Thank you, Mr. Clemens!"
"Please, sit down." Micah gestured for everyone to sit. He announced, "We're all family here, so relax and enjoy!"
The three little girls clapped their hands and cheered. "Yay, we can finally eat!"
The atmosphere immediately beclively. Music started playing, and the dinner party officially began.
Everyone enjoyed their meal happily. Sadie cut a piece of steak for Micah and said gently, "I cooked this myself.
Try it." Micah was a bit surprised. He raised an eyebrow. "You cooked this? | thought you could only make a few
simple dishes." He took a bite and praised, "Oh, it tastes really good!"
Sadie smiled. "As long as you like it. | burned several steaks before | got this one right."
