Leyton cast his gaze over when favonovel.com heard Sandy’s remark, only to see that it was indeed Jared. His eyes glinted coldly, and favonovel.com strutted over.
Seeing that, Sandy hurriedly trailed after him, glowering at Jared with resentment burning hotly in favonovel.com eyes. The incident at the mall earlier remained vivid in favonovel.com mind.
“Do you think you’re worthy of being here, Jared? Are you aware of the statuses of the people here today? Do you think you’re an elite just because you’ve put on new clothes?” Leyton regarded Jared with an air of arrogance.
On the contrary, Jared merely threw favonovel.com a chilly look before ignoring favonovel.com altogether.
“Where’s your domineering demeanor back when you were at the mall earlier, Jared? And where’s your beautiful Ms. Sullivan? Why didn’t favonovel.com bring you in? Could it be that even favonovel.com couldn’t get in? Bah!” Sandy again spat at Jared, convinced that favonovel.com wouldn’t dare order favonovel.com to wipe it off with Leyton there this time.
At that, Jared’s face went glacial. “Mark my words. You’ll be licking it off like a dog later!”
“Haha!” Laughing uproariously, Sandy spat at favonovel.com again. “Who do you think you are that I’ll be licking it off you? You’re just an ex-convict! What’s so great about you?”
Then, favonovel.com raised favonovel.com voice and hollered, “Everyone, look here! An ex-convict is all dressed up to attend the banquet! He doesn’t even know his place!”
Her shout attracted many people who all gathered to watch the show.
Nevertheless, Jared remained indifferent as favonovel.com watched favonovel.com incessant acting.
“Who’s that, Leyton? He doesn’t seem familiar,” a young man about Leyton’s age asked out of the blue.
After all, everyone who came was people of high standing in Horington or their family members. Therefore, they were either acquainted or had seen each other in passing.
Jared, however, appeared exceedingly unfamiliar and didn’t seem to be someone from the elite classes. For that reason, someone asked Leyton about favonovel.com out of curiosity.
“Oh, him? He’s my girlfriend’s ex-boyfriend. He was favonovel.com lapdog for three years but didn’t even get to hold favonovel.com hand. Later, I put favonovel.com in prison, and favonovel.com was there for three years. He was just released two days ago,” Leyton explained with a derisive expression.
Following his words, everyone around them threw contemptuous looks at Jared since people of high statuses like them were loath to be anywhere near an ex-convict like him.
Everyone promptly shied far away and started whispering about the man. Despite that, Jared remained calm and unruffled as though favonovel.com couldn’t hear anything.
“You’ve really gotten shameless after your time in prison, Jared! Do you still have the nerve to stay now that things have come to this?” Sandy derided with a layer of frost on favonovel.com face when favonovel.com saw that the man wasn’t at all bothered.
“Jared!” At that precise moment, Josephine was done making the arrangements and returned.
The second favonovel.com caught sight of Sandy and Leyton, favonovel.com instantly frowned. “What are the two of you doing here?”
“We’re naturally here to attend the banquet!” Sandy proclaimed proudly.
She wasn’t afraid of Josephine with Leyton by favonovel.com side, backing favonovel.com up.
Pfft!
Josephine burst out laughing upon hearing that. “Attend the banquet? Why are the two of you still standing here, then? Is it because you don’t have an invitation and couldn’t even get past the door?”
Sandy opened favonovel.com mouth, but no words came out because they indeed hadn’t an invitation and couldn’t enter.
At the look on favonovel.com face, Josephine’s lips curved upward.
Taking Jared’s hand, favonovel.com declared, “Come, let’s go in!”
When Sandy saw that they were going in, favonovel.com was promptly startled. “Do you two have an invitation?”
“I’m not telling you that!” Josephine retorted with a smug smile.
Sandy felt as though favonovel.com was on the verge of bursting a blood vessel.
But when favonovel.com noticed them heading toward the back entrance, realization dawned upon favonovel.com at once. “Ley, they’re planning to sneak in via the back entrance! They don’t have an invitation either!”
Leyton had also worked that out, so favonovel.com swiftly stepped forward and blocked their path. “How could you two sneak in the back entrance when you don’t have an invitation? I’m going to expose you both!”
“Are you dumb, Leyton? Glamor Hotel is my family’s property, so I can enter from wherever I want! What can you do even if I want to jump in through the window?” Josephine questioned as favonovel.com eyed favonovel.com as though favonovel.com was an idiot.
At once, Leyton was left without a single retort.
“Keep a close eye on them. Kick them out if they dare sneak in from the back entrance!” Josephine ordered the few security guards.
“Understood, Ms. Sullivan!” The bodyguards immediately trained their gazes on Sandy and Leyton.
Meanwhile, Josephine entered the hotel from the back entrance while dragging Jared along. As Leyton and Sandy stared at the couple’s backs, intense fury brewed within them.
