Chapter 1218: Chapter 1221: Mistaking Nolan Lucas for Aidan Lucas Chapter 1218: Chapter 1221: Mistaking Nolan Lucas for Aidan Lucas Hannah Coldwell, no, Hannah Coldwell didn't want to acknowledge her identity, and Mr. Scott couldn't force her to recognize it either.
“Very well, truly worthy of being Marshal Coldwell's daughter; she really matches well with Mr. President.” Mr. Scott said, though the words went against his true feelings, feeling both annoyed and regretful inside.
If it hadn't been for Sylvia Scott, he wouldn't have deliberately neglected Bella Scott.
Even if Sylvia had married well, she was not close to him at all.
The power of the Reddington family was in Europe, unlike Charles Coldwell's domain, which was one of the most influential real power factions in Eastonia.
Moreover, since the Reddington Group had been developing covertly these past years and had not interacted with the Scott family, Mr. Scott naturally had an inaccurate estimate of the Reddington Group.
Upon comparing, he immediately felt he was at a loss.
If it hadn't been for Sylvia, no, if it hadn't been for what Lily Redington had said, he would have made amends to Hannah earlier, and perhaps the child could have become closer to the Scott family.
It must be said that Mr. Scott's thoughts were indeed biased.
Although he was entirely for the Scott family, and used to switching allegiances, blaming this matter on Lily for the sake of the family was unreasonable.
Others naturally were not aware of Mr. Scott's thoughts.
After Frank Chamberlain presented the gifts, he stepped slightly aside to introduce someone on behalf of Mr. Scott.
“By the way, this is Mr. Lucas, the son of the Cabinet Prime Minister. Mr. Lucas, though young, already manages the family's international businesses and will soon enter politics.”
Following Frank Chamberlain's introduction, many people turned their gazes towards the noble and handsome man behind him, whose demeanor was gentle and extraordinary.
The Cabinet Prime Minister mentioned by Frank Chamberlain naturally referred to Theodore Lucas.
'Family's international businesses' referred to the company Theodore Lucas founded after leaving A City.
'Will soon enter politics,' referred to the fact that Nolan Lucas was going to step forward and join the Cabinet after the next election.
At first hearing, all this was no lie.
However, many people present, including Mr. Scott, had rarely seen Aidan Lucas in person.
Aidan Lucas was not someone ordinary people could meet, especially here in B City, which was not where his influence lay, unlike A City.
He had just arrived in B City and had only started to make a name for himself in the parliament.
Mr. Scott's connections were in the military, and those attending the birthday banquet were from the military or other influential figures; since there was little contact between the parliament and the Scott family, Mr. Scott naturally couldn't get involved there either.
Therefore, Mr. Scott naturally matched Frank Chamberlain's introduction with the image of Aidan Lucas he had in mind.
The son of the Cabinet Prime Minister, that was correct; Aidan Lucas was indeed Theodore's son.
Family's international businesses, the Royal Palace was indeed such an entity.
As for the last point about 'will soon enter politics,' that was also accurate. Aidan Lucas hadn't officially taken office yet, but his election as Speaker was a certainty.
As for why Frank Chamberlain did not refer to Aidan Lucas as 'Mr. Lucas' but as 'Mr. Lucas', that was even more understandable.
Frank Chamberlain was the President; calling him 'Mr. Lucas' was, of course, inappropriate.
“Very well, he truly is a formidable young man. Mr. Lucas is young and indeed gifted, one wonders which fortunate girl will have the luck to marry Mr. Lucas,” Mr. Scott joked, though he was actually signaling 'Aidan Lucas.'
If he really liked his daughter Tania Scott, it would be time for him to show it.
Nolan Lucas was not foolish, far shrewder than Mr. Scott thought.
Hearing Mr. Scott's words, he slightly curved his lips into a smile, then walked towards Tania Scott under everyone's gaze.
Tania Scott stood next to the old man, and at that moment, seeing Nolan Lucas approach her with affectionate eyes, it seemed as though all the light was shining on him.
In such a setting, this strikingly handsome, noble, and distinguished man specifically favored her.
Tania Scott felt her heart pounding wildly.
Returning Nolan's gaze, her eyes almost seemed to brim with water.
