Xavia was holding onto Yuri’s arm in an intimate manner at this time.
She looked at
Gerald, Naomi, and the others in surprise.
Unexpectedly,
they could also afford to attend such a high
-
end
occasion.
Gerald looked at Xavia and he saw that she was dressed in
gold and silver. After that, Gerald suddenly thought
of the diamond
ring that Yuri had bought for Xavia earlier today. He must have bought all
these items for Xavia
to wear to the
opening ceremony of Grand Marshall Restaurant tonight.
Xavia looked
very proud and happy at this time.
Gerald could
not help but think to himself, ‘Perhaps Xavia and Yuri are really in love with
one another.’
Perhaps he was
really just a tool for Xavia to relieve her boredom in the past.
As he thought
about it, he felt that he was really ridiculous. To think that he was actually
worried about
Xavia last
night. He did not need to worry about her at all!
“Brother
Quinton, you and Gerald unexpectedly know each other too?” Yuri asked in a
respectful manner.
In fact, the
Lowell family’s small factory could not even be compared to the heights of the
Ziegler family. The
only reason
why Yuri could come to the opening ceremony today was because Yuri’s mother and
Quinton’s mother
had been college
roommates who shared a close relationship with one another and had always kept
in touch with
one another.
When Yuri heard about the opening ceremony, he asked his mother for help and
this was the reason
he could come
here with Xavia tonight.
“They are all Alice’s friends. Yuri, do you know them too?”
Quinton asked.
“Yes, Brother
Quinton! They’re from the class next door!”
“Brother
Quinton, Gerald is really a piece of trash! This is such a high-end and
luxurious opening ceremony but
he isn’t showing
any respect at all! Look at what he is wearing today! He is really lowering the
standards
here!” Xavia
said as she glared at Gerald contemptuously at this time. She even tightened
her grasp around
Yuri’s arm. It
was as though Xavia was trying to show Gerald that her life had improved so
much after getting
together with
Yuri.
Moreover,
Xavia wanted to show Gerald that she was eligible to come to the opening
ceremony of the Grand
Marshall
Restaurant after breaking up with him. In Xavia’s opinion, Gerald was really
lucky to have won thirty
thousand
dollars from the lottery but he was still nothing compared to everyone else!
Quinton was
also very satisfied with Xavia’s comment and he placed his hands in his pockets
as he laughed and
said, “If he’s
going to lower the standard, then just lower the standard. After all, when it
comes to elegance
and common
appreciation, not everyone has a high standard!”
“Hahaha!
Quinton is really amazing. What he said is so accurate!”
“That’s right, Brother Quinton is right. What he said really
made sense. If there are no low standards, then
how could
there possibly be high standards then?”
“Okay, okay.
Let’s stop already. Is it really okay to talk about Gerald like this even
though it’s true?
Hahaha…”
This time,
Xavia had a tacit understanding with Jacelyn and the rest of the girls as they
agreed with what
Quinton had
just said.
Gerald was
also starting to get angry as he listened to what they were saying. At this
time, he thought to
himself about
how much this group of girls loved money. Alright then! He would just throw
money at them later.
Okay! He was
angry!
At this time,
Quinton looked at Gerald before he smiled and said, “Brother Gerald, don’t get
me wrong. I was
just joking.
You aren’t angry, are you? Well, I know that Brother Gerald will definitely not
get angry. Are you
really someone
who can’t take a joke?”
Gerald simply
replied in a cold manner, “Quinton, are you deliberately finding trouble with
me today?”
Gerald had
initially thought that the reason Alice had invited him here today was because
she wanted him to
mend his relationship with Quinton.
After all,
even though he did not get along with Quinton, he had still invited all of them
to enjoy dinner with
him at the
most luxurious and expensive spot in the manor.
He thought
that it was only natural to do so.
However,
Gerald finally understood that they had only invited him here today to taunt
him!
“Oh! It seems
as though Gerald is really angry now. Brother Quinton did you a huge favor by
giving you the
opportunity to
come here today and you still dare to lose your temper at him? Hahaha…”
Xavia found it
really enjoyable when she saw everyone belittling Gerald. Moreover, she felt
even happier when
