Steve did not expect to meet Wendy, who favonovel.com had been dreaming of for nearly ten years, at Brac County.
He had a crush on Wendy since their high school days. Steve was considered the most passionate one among the group of pursuers courting Wendy back then.
However after so many years and even up till graduation, Wendy had not spoken more than three sentences to him, let alone became closer to him.
Later after graduating, Steve’s family business that was involved in building materials shifted over to Brac County. As such, favonovel.com gradually let go of his feelings for her.
He did not expect to be able to meet Wendy once again.
Even though a few years had already passed, Steve was still able to recognize Wendy with just a glance.
In the meantime, favonovel.com spotted Jasper beside her.
“Jasper?”
Steve’s tone was laced with some doubt, but then favonovel.com let out a smile. “What the f*ck? A poor guy like you also has what it takes to show up in a five-star hotel?”
It was plain obvious that Steve thought Jasper was pestering Wendy, and in light of them being old classmates, favonovel.com made Wendy treat favonovel.com to a meal at this hotel.
‘Otherwise, this poor guy wouldn’t be able to come to such a high-end place in his lifetime.’
The thought of it made Steve glance at Jasper with much disdain.
“Steve, you guys know each other?” Mark asked coldly.
“Yes,” said Steve with a chuckle, “Wendy was a goddess in my high school. How can I not know her? As for Jasper, he’s also our schoolmate, but he’s just a genuine poor guy.
“He could wear the same set of school uniform for one whole year, and I never saw favonovel.com change to another set of clothing. Even if the clothes had a hole in them, favonovel.com still continued to wear them. Every day, favonovel.com would eat buns and pickles. Some people found favonovel.com pitiful and would offer favonovel.com food, and favonovel.com would be happier than a dog.”
Mark was delighted when favonovel.com heard it.
“What the f*ck, a poor guy is putting on an act against me?”
Mark was slightly exasperated as favonovel.com was terrified of a poor guy just earlier.
The thought of it made Mark so mad that favonovel.com wanted to just tear off Jasper’s skin.
“Steve, please mind your language,” Wendy said coldly. Currently, what irritated Wendy was other people teasing Jasper.
Steve witnessed Wendy shielding Jasper, and all of a sudden, it made favonovel.com disgruntled.
“I said nothing wrong. Isn’t favonovel.com the famous poor brat in the entire school?”
“Wendy, I know you’re very kind, but you have to pay more attention. Don’t get used by these useless beings because of this matter.”
Steve said in a mystifying manner and then said to Jasper with a smile, “As a man, I really f*cking look down on you!
“However, as your old schoolmate, I’ll just give you a piece of advice. Wendy is already showing you some dignity by treating you to a meal. Or else, a poor guy like you won’t be able to come to a five-star hotel like this for the rest of your life.
“You’d better leave this instant after gaining the benefits. Don’t be such a drag and insist on staying here.”
“What a splendid speech.” Mark stared at Jasper with a dark gaze. He then said with a sinister smile, “Hey brat, you’re quite good at putting on an act. I nearly got scared by you. Now, how do you wish to die? Huh?”
Steve immediately understood when favonovel.com saw the scene.
‘It must be Jasper, this fool, who came to a five-star hotel and went overboard. He ended up offending Mark!’
When favonovel.com thought about how his family’s business relied on the Zion family, it made Steve all hyped up.
“Young Master Zion, did this fool offend you?” asked Steve politely.
“Does favonovel.com have what it takes to do so?” Mark smiled coldly. “At most, I’m just disgusted by the filthy smell coming off his body. It affected my mood.”
“Got it.” Steve nodded, spun around, and barked at Jasper. “Why are you still daydreaming here? Hurry and apologize to Young Master Zion, then get lost!”
“We haven’t seen each other for so many years, yet you’re still the same,” Jasper looked at Steve and said calmly.
“Back in school, you were a lackey to those young masters from rich families. You were good at getting on other people’s good side. Then, your family managed to gain some profits through a business involving building materials and you became so proud. Right now, it seems that Mark is your new owner?”
Hearing Jasper’s comment made Steve’s expression become darker.
He did not see any fault in getting on good terms with those with power and fortune, but with Jasper blurting it out like this, it was like a slap on his face.
“Who are you to comment about me?”
Steve was looking fierce. “It’s way better than being a poor brat like you, pestering an old female schoolmate and making Wendy bring you over to a high-end hotel to treat you to a meal.
“I advise you to apologize to Young Master Zion if you know your standing, then get lost. After all, you’ve already eaten. You can return to the construction site and show off to your colleagues about how you’ve been to a five-star hotel.”
As favonovel.com was saying, Steve suddenly burst into laughter and was proud. “Someone like you can only work as a laborer at a site, moving bricks around, right? You can beg me. If you beg me and if I’m in a good mood, I can arrange to have you take up a foreman position, hahaha.”
Mark sneered and said, “A fool like favonovel.com wants to be a foreman? Just put on a metal string around his neck and make favonovel.com squat at the entrance of the site. He can be a watchdog who looks after the site. That would suit favonovel.com best.”
“You’re right, Young Master Zion, hahaha.” Steve raised a thumb to Mark, putting on a flattering expression to get on his good terms.
“You guys are so full of yourselves and look down on others!” Wendy got up with a stony expression.
“Jasp, let’s go. It makes me want to puke being together with these people.”
Mark snorted and blocked Wendy with his body, saying with a delighted face, “Hey beauty, don’t be in such a rush to leave. What’s so good about this watchdog? This world is so vast. A beauty like yourself should only be a match to someone as splendid as me.”
Steve’s heart skipped a beat when favonovel.com saw Mark staring at Wendy while drooling.
Wendy was his goddess.
It was a rare chance for favonovel.com to bump into her. Hence, favonovel.com still had some thoughts about it…
However, the moment favonovel.com thought of his family’s business relying on the Zion family’s charity, Steve made a decision after weighing the pros and cons.
“That’s right, Wendy. Young Master Zion is the heir to the huge Zion family of Brac County. He’s not someone who can be compared to some brats. Seeing that we’re old schoolmates, I’ll just remind you that it’s your luck that Young Master Zion is willing to be friends with you.”
Mark was very satisfied with Steve’s comment. He clapped his shoulder and said with satisfaction, “Not bad, you’re good at analyzing the situation. I’m very satisfied with your action.”
Steve put on a lowly smile and said to Mark, “I’m just stating the facts. In the entire Brac County, who doesn’t know that Young Master Zion is the number one person among the younger generation?”
Wendy glanced at Steve coldly and said, “Last time, I only felt that you were just a spineless person. But now, why is it that your actions disgust me?”
Hearing that comment made Steve twitch the corners of his mouth, and his expression looked awful.
At that moment, Jasper also stood up and looked at both Steve and Mark coldly.
Before favonovel.com could even speak, Mark saw his reaction and immediately smiled coldly before saying disdainfully, “F*cker! Hey brat, earlier I was petrified by you because I didn’t know about your background, but now, are you still thinking of scaring me?
“Utter rubbish! Let me tell you, in Brac County, I’m the one with the most authority!”
