[Chapter 99]
"What did you say? Wealthy heir, are you?! Hahaha!" Irene was thoroughly enjoying herself now.
Mila had always been untouchable, beyond anyone's reach… to think that she would have picked such an oddball as her boyfriend!
What a moron.
Kenneth was sneering as well. "In that case, Gerald, if I may be so bold, what sort of work do you do? Which field is your family involved in?" As he said this, he brandished his wristwatch again, as though worried people might fail to notice his Rolex.
Gerald regarded the two of them coldly. "You don't deserve to hear about my family business."
"Bwahahahahaha!" Clutching their bellies, they burst into laughter.
Mila tugged gently on his shirt, pleading for him to stop talking.
She had said all of that just now because she had been in a panic. She hadn't expected Gerald to take the ball and run with it.
Mila was well aware that Gerald came from modest means and was always getting bullied too. It was just that he had won a lottery later on.
Still, lottery or no, he was nowhere near someone like Kenneth Lee.
She had just wanted to stand up to Irene.
Instead, this had only made things worse!
As the four of them were wrestling with their own inner demons…
Bang!
A bottle was hurled to the ground in rage.
"I don't care, I don't care! I just want my license! I want to start driving today! I don't care what you have to do as long as it gets me my driving license!"
Gerald glanced over.
A young woman in her twenties was throwing a tantrum at her boyfriend, and both were fashionably dressed.
The girl had probably failed her test, hence, her current mood.
"Calm down, Mina. I'll think of something. Maybe I can pull some strings and get that license issued for you somehow!"
"Hmph! That's more like it. It's not fair that all the other girls can get theirs so easily. Anyone could see that there was something wrong with my car, otherwise, how else could I have screwed up reverse parking?! Aaah! I have to be in your Lamborghini Gallardo as soon as possible so I can show off at my old school!"
Mina was losing her mind while the guy was just trying to reason with her.
Gerald sighed gently. Those two seemed familiar but he couldn't quite place his finger on it just at the moment.
"Sean, Mina!" Kenneth called out cheerfully.
"Oh? Kenneth, you know that big guy with the Lambo?" Irene asked, combing her hair a little.
"Yup. Sean Girard, my senior back at Sunnydale University. His family is in dairy, they're old money. When I checked up on him recently, he had just bought a Gallardo for almost six hundred thousand dollars. Holy cow!" Kenneth was clearly delighted to be acquainted with such a personage.
"Wow! Half a million for a sports car! That's awesome!" Irene was seeing stars now.
Kenneth's Ferrari had only cost a trifling hundred thousand or so.
This new guy sounded very sexy.
Kenneth took a moment to tidy his clothes and then hurried over to say hi.
"Kenneth, so it's you!" As he approached, Mina stopped her boo-hooing instantly, and everyone began exchanging pleasantries.
"What a coincidence! Come to think of it, it's been years since graduation, huh? Yo, let's see, here… You've got a Ferrari?
Looking good!" Sean laughed wryly.
"What's my car compared to your Lamborghini? Oh, right—have you got it here now? I'd love to see it up close!"
Clinging to Kenneth's arm, Irene gave Sean a little smile.
That counted as a greeting too.
