[Chapter 178]
Dawn was speechless.
"That's right. But Dawn, there is a really true saying. A person with no temperament or class will never be able to have any temperament or class. No matter how rich they are, they will never have any class at all! Just look at Samuel. He is not only very wealthy at home, but he also has a very good temperament and class. Ahh! Take a look at Gerald again. He won the lottery but he turned out to be nothing at all."
Nyla looked at Gerald and she was completely speechless as she shook her head.
If a person did not have any self-knowledge, then what difference would he have from a corpse?
Both of them were thinking this to themselves.
To be honest, Gerald was feeling a tightness in his chest now. It felt really uncomfortable to be snubbed despite showing good intentions.
However, he decided to sit down first. They could just say whatever they wanted to!
Gerald sat down.
Of course, he was seated at the back.
At this time, Melanie turned around. When she saw that Gerald was sitting behind her, she knitted her brows tightly together.
After that, she stood up before she walked toward Samuel and smiled before she said, "Brother Samuel, can we change our seats?"
"Ahh? Why do you want to change seats? Isn't it good for Gerald to be sitting behind you?"
"Oh! I don't want that! Please change seats with me!"
"Okay, okay. Although Gerald comes from a small place, he is actually a pretty clean and decent person. It is really okay!"
"No! You know that I am a clean freak so I really do not like this kind of person the most! Please! Please!"
Melanie continued pleading and it seemed as though she was about to cry.
"Okay, Samuel, why don't you just change places with Melanie then? I also have to say something about you. People are easily influenced by their surroundings and the companions that they hang around with. You should not hang out with these dubious and shady people. Have you forgotten what I told you before? You can only stand higher and get farther in life by mixing with powerful and influential people."
Wyatt replied coldly at this time.
The two families were family friends. Moreover, Wyatt had always had a very straightforward attitude. He was also very strict when it came to educating the younger generation.
Samuel only nodded silently in response.
When Gerald heard these words, he was so angry that his face turned pale immediately.
Even if he was impolite, he should still have to have the minimum amount of respect for someone that he had just met.
What did he mean by dubious and shady?
Was he a dubious and shady person, just because he did not look as rich as Samuel?
Dawn and Nyla simply laughed. They listened quietly as Wyatt educated and gave Samuel some advice.
They felt that the words of this successful businessman would definitely be of great help to them in life.
At this time, more and more people were entering the exhibition hall.
A beautiful hostess stood on the high platform of the exhibition as she took control of the venue and tried to calm everyone down.
"Dear sirs and madams, welcome to the exhibition ceremony of the first launch of the Mountain Top Villa! Before the official opening ceremony begins, let us give a warm round of applause to welcome the distinguished guests from the Sunnydale Province!"
"Let us welcome the founder of the Holden Group, the richest man in the County State, Howard Holden, and the young master, Yoel Holden!"
"Great!!"
"The father and son from the Holden family are both here. Based on the young master's spending habit, do you think that the Holden Group will buy the one hundred and twenty million dollars villa?"
"That is impossible. Even if they have the money, the company will have huge competitors. If they are to compete with one another, then they will have to consume a lot of money. Who would have as much as one hundred and twenty million dollars just to buy a house? Do you know that once the competition begins, even one hundred and fifty dollars will determine the outcome of the two big groups, right?"
"That is right. It is impossible for the Holden family to buy the villa. They are currently the richest family in the County State but there are also many other powerful companies in the County State. They could easily use this one hundred and twenty million dollars to fight a good defense war!"
The crowd continued discussing this matter amongst themselves.
Yoel and his father walked into the exhibition hall, following these sounds.
However, there was an obvious palm mark on Yoel's face. It seemed as though someone had slapped him.
Gerald naturally knew that it was his father who slapped him.
As for the reason why? It could be because Gerald sent a text message to Yoel earlier, stating that he did not see him anywhere and that was why he had already entered the exhibition hall with someone else without waiting for him.
To put it bluntly, Yoel got slapped because of him.
At the same time, Yoel also raised his head to look for Gerald in the exhibition hall. However, at this time, there were two to three hundred people in the hall and it was not so easy to find Gerald so easily. After all, Gerald was being blocked by Samuel at this time.
"Next, I would like to extend a grand welcome to a VIP of the exhibition event, and also a representative of the Mayberry Commercial Street, Zack Lyle! Mr. Lyle!"
"D*mn it! Mr. Lyle is here too? Is Mr. Lyle thinking of buying the villa? I think that would be more likely. After all, Mr. Lyle has no competitors at all in Mayberry City!"
The crowd of people continued discussing amongst themselves.
"It is impossible for Mr. Lyle to buy the villa. Do you know the reason why, Samuel?"
