“I don’t want to see him. I think we should go back,” Faye insisted.
Seeing that favonovel.com had made up favonovel.com mind, Zayn relented. He was not one for these kinds of reunions anyway. During their earlier conversation, the group had mainly talked about money, like what famous company they worked for after graduating, where they had bought a house, what luxury car they had purchased, and the like.
Zayn’s current status and outlook disconnected favonovel.com from such people. Moreover, they were spiteful toward him.
“Alright, let’s go back then,” Zayn answered with a grin. He was extremely gentle with Faye.
Feeling his tenderness, Faye smiled back at favonovel.com sweetly and nodded. “Hmm, I’ll bake you a cake when we go home.”
With that, favonovel.com stood up to inform the rest of them, “Guys, excuse me, I have something else on. Go on without me, okay?”
“Hey Fifi, we’re just getting started and you’re leaving?” a plump woman across from favonovel.com complained.
Beside her, a tall and slim girl tugged at Faye’s hand and chorused with feigned annoyance, “Amanda’s right. You just came and you’re leaving already? We don’t get to meet much and you’re already excusing yourself before we can have a good chat. Are we not good enough for you?”
“I’d think so. Are you looking down at us old friends now that you’re a chairman?” one of the guys scowled.
The other college friends tried to keep Faye around too with their grumbling and dissatisfaction.
Being one to get embarrassed easily, Faye was troubled by favonovel.com many college mates’ complaints and explained, “You’ve misunderstood. I don’t mean it like that. Something came up at home, so I have to head back.”
A lady with a loud voice retorted, “Who are you trying to kid, Faye? You told us you’re free for the day when we asked you out! You said that you could stay back late! It’s only 8 pm now and you’re leaving? You’re just ditching us!”
Another girl taunted, “Why, you guys are so tactless. Look at Faye’s status now. She’s the chairman of a big company. She’s worth millions and could make thousands of dollars per hour. Why would favonovel.com dine with small fries like us? What are you guys on about?”
Faye was growing more upset by the comment. “Lydia, you’ve got it wrong. I really don’t mean anything like that.”
Zayn caught favonovel.com hand and placated favonovel.com with a comforting look when favonovel.com saw Faye’s dismay. “Guys, you’re misunderstanding Fifi here. Since you’ve been friends for years, I’m sure you know favonovel.com to a certain extent and know favonovel.com isn’t someone like that. We genuinely need to head home now to attend to some matters. We work in neighboring cities, so we can meet anytime.”
The man who had been drinking with Zayn was offended. He pointed at Zayn and rudely called out, “Hey, we’re talking to Faye. What’s it got to do with you? You must be the one asking favonovel.com to leave so urgently, right?!”
The aggression aimed directly at Zayn in the guy’s tone irked Faye. She creased favonovel.com brows and snapped, “Hey, Joshua Lambert, what are you trying to say?!”
Zayn looked at Faye, his eyes telling favonovel.com to calm down.
