Chapter 509: The conflict between Marquis Diane Haywoodfalk and Austin was merely a minor incident at the dinner party.
The House family was already incredibly arrogant, and now that Marquis Falk had been dealt with by Ryan, they were quite happy to see Falk suffer a setback.
Marquis Falk slunk away from the banquet with his entourage, while everyone watched him with schadenfreude.
It's one thing to use his marquis status to intimidate others normally, but now he's showing off in front of Young Master Renn. He's asking for trouble.
"Young Master Renn's banquets are still the most interesting; there's always a lively atmosphere."
After one person clinked their wine glasses with another's, they said, half-jokingly.
The other person nodded: "Yes, what kind of person is Young Master Renn? Some people really can't see their own position."
Renato stared intently at his brother Austin, who was standing next to Renne, wishing he could take his place.
"Damn it, why would Young Master Renn stand up for him?" Renato clenched his left fist tightly.
Renato snorted and moved closer to the other heirs of the Wilson family.
If these collateral heirs don't unite, they might truly be completely suppressed by Austen.
When Austin takes over the Wilson family, they will likely either die in an accident or be exiled to a remote area of the family estate to farm.
It's unclear whether young master Renn's actions have any other meaning.
But he could imagine that after tonight's dinner, the rest of the family who were still observing would probably extend goodwill to Austin.
Aristocratic banquets typically last two to three hours.
Rennes has only been at the dinner for half an hour, and the dinner is still in its prelude.
After all, the head of the Wilson family didn't even show up.
Austin took Ryan around the dinner table, where they sampled delicacies from all over the continent.
Ryan ate while Austin provided commentary.
Seeing that Ryan enjoyed the food, Austin would occasionally signal to the waiter beside him to ask the kitchen to prepare more.
As Ryan savored his meal, a beautiful figure caught his eye.
Ryan shifted his attention from the food to the graceful girl.
Upon seeing the girl's face, Ryan raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes.
What a nice view!
It's...it's actually someone from the Heywood family!?
Renn chuckled as he swallowed the tender roasted meat in his mouth.
After placing his fork back on the white tablecloth, Ryan slowly walked toward Diane Haywood.
After Austin, who was standing next to Renn, noticed Renn's goal, he waited for Renn to walk for a while before catching up with him.
Austin, who was originally a body length away from Rein, suddenly increased the distance.
On the way, Ryan took two glasses of red wine from the waiter's tray.
In a corner of the banquet, Diane Haywood was chatting with other aristocratic ladies, telling them about the Haywood family's animal furs.
"My Heywood family has acquired quite a few rare animal pelts in the past six months, including many white fox pelts. My sisters, please take good care of your sister's business."
Diane Haywood raised her wine glass and addressed the noble ladies.
Upon hearing this, one of the noble ladies sighed and said, "Sister Diane, it's not that I don't want to help you."
"You know the current situation of the Edwin family; they've made some tough statements in order to monopolize the Empire's fur trade."
"So that our families cannot buy the furs of the Heywood family."
"Given the current power of the Edwin family, my sister's family would not dare to disobey."
