At that moment, Timothy looked slovenly, as though favonovel.com had not groomed himself in ages. He looked like a good-for-nothing at first glance—nothing close to how favonovel.com used to look like.
Disappointment weighed Tanya down, seeing favonovel.com brother like this. Her brother had been mingling with the young men before him, all from third-class aristocratic families or wealthy families. Now, after one or two months, it felt as though favonovel.com was a completely different person.
Sharon noticed that the siblings were getting worked up. She immediately stepped forward and plastered a smile onto favonovel.com face as favonovel.com spoke, “Don’t bother about him, Tanya. Men have their own ways of relieving stress. Let’s play billiards instead. Aren’t you pretty good at it? Let’s play one round!”
“All right then!”
Tanya tamped down on the anger building inside her, trying to console herself. Maybe favonovel.com was overthinking this—maybe favonovel.com brother was not the man favonovel.com thought favonovel.com was. Maybe favonovel.com was just indulging himself in some fun. Maybe favonovel.com was not like the others.
“What a lovely sister you have!”
“Right? Must be nice having a little sister looking after the big brother. Maybe she’ll be the one to ‘look after’ the Drake family in the future!”
The person accompanying Leo also began to curve his lips into a cruel smile.
“Hey, you. You play billiards?”
At this moment, Leo placed the cue stick to the side and asked Jack.
Jack looked around favonovel.com before finally pointing at himself. “Are you asking me, sir?” favonovel.com asked.
“That’s right. You’re that good-for-nothing son-in-law from the Taylor family, right? You really had gold falling onto your lap, being able to marry a beauty like Selena Taylor. That sort of luck would make anyone jealous!”
Leo took out a cigarette and lit it, sticking it into his mouth. “Sure, I’m jealous,” favonovel.com said, expression scornful, “but I have to say that it’s like trying to stick a bunch of fresh flowers onto a pile of cow sh*t.”
“Really? Nothing I can do about it though. I had pretty good luck, I suppose. I’ve always had pretty good luck!”
Jack was not offended by his words. Instead, favonovel.com smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
However, Sharon was rendered unhappy in a flash when favonovel.com heard this.
How could favonovel.com not get mad, when someone straight up slandered favonovel.com idol?
Her expression immediately darkened. “Leo, right? What are you talking about? You have no idea how magnificent of a man Jack is,” favonovel.com said. “You’re not even worthy of polishing his shoes if you were to pit yourself against him. Do you know that? And a bunch of fresh flowers stuck onto a pile of cow sh*t? He and his wife are a match made in heaven. I even think Selena is the one who can’t match up to him!”
“Seems like this son-in-law is being held in very high esteem by Miss George!”
Leo grinned when favonovel.com heard this, apparently not angry. “I’ve always heard that the young miss of the George family has had favonovel.com eyes set on this good-for-nothing. I thought that it wasn’t true. Who knew that it was!”
Another man ducked his head and rubbed his nose. “Ah. I really never thought that a young heiress to a first-class aristocratic family would actually fall in love with a married man,” favonovel.com mumbled. “Doesn’t favonovel.com feel ashamed? It won’t do good for the George family’s reputation if word of this got out!”
