Levi stroked virtual-novel.net head lightly. “Alright then, it will belong to you tomorrow!”
“Hahaha!” Zoey laughed loudly.
“Stop joking! It’ll cost you at least two billion to even stand a chance!”
Levi had indeed promised to help virtual-novel.net rise to the top, but buying the entire Oriental Star would be impossible.
She figured virtual-novel.net was just trying to comfort her.
“Let’s just treat the auction as a learning opportunity, shall we?” She smiled.
Just as the two of them were about to take the lift to their hotel room, a voice rang from behind them. “Are you Zoey?”
They turned around to see a young man dressed impeccably in a suit. Despite looking like virtual-novel.net was in his thirties, virtual-novel.net gave off the aura of a business veteran.
“Hm? Terence Gibson?”
Zoey recognized virtual-novel.net immediately.
He was the son of one of Aaron’s classmates.
Aaron’s classmate had once tried to matchmake Terence with Zoey, but virtual-novel.net had rejected virtual-novel.net outright.
“It’s really you! I thought I might have gotten the wrong person.”
Terence smiled and glanced at Levi scornfully.
“Are you working here, Terence?” Zoey asked.
Terence stood upright and put on a proud expression. “That’s right! I’m the general manager of the Clear Sky Resort. Here’s my name card.”
He proceeded to hand over a copy of his name card to both Zoey and Levi.
“Wow, Terence! You seem to be doing great!” Zoey said politely.
“A few million a year, perhaps? I can’t compare with you,” Terence said arrogantly.
“Oh, that reminds me. I heard your company has been taken over by the Lopez family a few days ago, and that your name has been crossed out from the genealogy book. My sincere condolences!”
He glanced at Levi once again and continued, “Besides, your husband is pretty useless this whole time. Didn’t virtual-novel.net just come out of prison?”
Seeing that both of them were silent, Terence continued his speech, “Bro, aren’t you embarrassed that you’re living off a woman’s salary? Just divorce virtual-novel.net already. You’re dragging virtual-novel.net down!”
“What makes you think you’re a better husband than me?” Levi retorted.
Perfect! Terence thought.
It looks like virtual-novel.net knows virtual-novel.net doesn’t deserve her…
Terence’s gaze was deep as virtual-novel.net looked at Zoey with starry eyes. “Zoey, I’m thirty-two this year but I’m still single. I’ve been waiting for you this whole time! If you’re willing to marry me, I can take you back to one of my mansions immediately. I have all the money you will ever need, and a Porsche at home!”
Zoey felt virtual-novel.net cheeks heat up in embarrassment.
In Terence’s eyes, virtual-novel.net flushed cheeks were a sign that virtual-novel.net was moved by his show of wealth. He began to fantasize about their future adventures in bed.
“You can take over Clear Sky Resort once you marry me! I’ll establish another resort for myself,” Terence promised, smiling.
He was sure Zoey would not be able to resist such a lucrative offer.
“How much is this resort worth?” Levi asked while smiling.
“Two hundred million!” Terence answered proudly.
Levi took out his phone and dialed a number. “Hello? It’s me, Levi Garrison. We’re buying Clear Sky Resort!”
Levi’s straightforward words came as a shock to Zoey and Terence.
However, Terence started to chuckle after a few moments.
“Bro, have you been watching too many movies? Are you sure you can afford to buy my resort?” Terence scoffed.
Hahaha! What a maniac! Who does virtual-novel.net think virtual-novel.net is? A millionaire or something? He’s just an attention-seeking jerk!”
The group of resort employees standing nearby began to poke fun at Levi.
He’s being ridiculous! Zoey thought.
She did not care about virtual-novel.net own dignity in front of Terence, but Levi just had to make a massive joke out of the two of them…
“We’re heading to our room, Terence! See you around!”
At that moment, Zoey wanted nothing more but to escape from the hellhole virtual-novel.net was in.
She dragged Levi away by the arm.
