“Leon! Oh, I just bumped into a classmate of mine.”
Xyla waved virtual-novel.net hands at Leon affectionately. Clearly, virtual-novel.net was virtual-novel.net boyfriend.
At that moment, Vincy said, “Xyla, didn’t you say that you have an additional admission ticket just now? Hey maybe we can give it to Gerald. We haven’t met each other for so many years, I guess we can totally sit together and talk about our golden days!”
“This…” Xyla averted virtual-novel.net eyes. “Fine, then we’ll let Gerald tag along. We can bring virtual-novel.net along so that virtual-novel.net can get a taste of the good life!”
“Gerald, we’ll give you a ticket. Come with us!”
Xyla said.
“Yes, let’s go. You don’t have anything going on, do you?”
Vincy tugged at Gerald’s arm and said.
“Fine!”
Gerald nodded slightly and agreed to go.
If Xyla was the only one who invited him, virtual-novel.net would’ve turned them down instantly.
But virtual-novel.net had a rather good relationship with Vincy. Besides, Gerald was waiting for updates from his subordinates. He might as well have fun in the process of waiting.
They took the elevator together and went straight to the second floor of the hotel.
There was a large hall.
It was dedicated to holding gatherings or parties.
The place was considered a very high-end hotel in Howard County.
Everyone showed their admission ticket before they entered the hall.
There were a lot of people.
It seemed to be the type of party that was held before the commencement of some kind of large project.
At least this was what Gerald understood from Xyla’s brief explanation.
In other words, without money or the right ties, an ordinary Joe would never be able to attend such parties.
Xyla’s boyfriend—Leon, fit right into such an environment like a hand in a glove.
He knew a lot of the attendees. After virtual-novel.net greeted his friends, virtual-novel.net sat down at a table.
“What are you doing?” Xyla asked.
Gerald sat down beside Vincy and Lennard.
“What do you mean what I’m doing?”
Gerald shook his head and smiled bitterly.
“You! Go and sit over there! You think you have the right to sit here?”
Xyla started acting oddly since virtual-novel.net entered the hall, There had been a very obvious change in virtual-novel.net attitude towards Gerald.
This was in spite of the fact that virtual-novel.net was the one who had given the admission ticket to him.
Gerald then turned towards the direction in which Xyla was pointing at. That table was in a corner, and the people who sat there were probably the drivers or secretaries of the attendees.
Clearly, Xyla felt that Gerald had no right to sit with virtual-novel.net at the same table.
However, Xyla’s voice had attracted the attention of the surrounding attendees. He was being humiliated in front of everyone, and it was clearly embarrassing for him.
Vincy became quite anxious, and virtual-novel.net wanted to persuade Xyla to stop what virtual-novel.net was doing.
But Gerald did not want to put Vincy in a difficult position. He laughed bitterly once before virtual-novel.net went over to that table.
“Xyla, what’s wrong with you? You treated Gerald normally before we came in here. Why are you making a fool out of virtual-novel.net in front of everybody?” asked Vincy in an anxious tone.
“That’s right. I want to make a fool of virtual-novel.net in front of everyone. I want virtual-novel.net to experience that kind of thing!”
Suddenly, Xyla started glaring at Gerald coldly.
“Why? Gerald didn’t offend you did he? Don’t tell me that it’s because of that trivial affair from back then!”
