Chapter 184
Upon hearing that, Donald remained unfazed. “Why can't I be here?”
Crossing his legs, Hector inquired indifferently, “Do you know each other?”
A smile crept onto Winston's face as he shook his head. “Mr. Zahn, you've misunderstood. I guess it's necessary for me to introduce who he is. His ex-wife is Jennifer Wilson, the CEO of Jennard Construction. However, she divorced him a month ago because he was just a security guard. Jennifer is the spokesperson for the main branch of the Wilson family in Pollerton. She has just founded Jennard Decor, so it's reasonable that Donald was driven out of the family. Ms. Zimmerman should be Jennifer's cousin,” he explained.
The next moment, a hint of contempt flashed across Hector's eyes. “A security guard?”
What is a security guard doing here?
In response, Derrick nodded. “That's right. He's just a security guard. Back then, when his grandfather was ill, he couldn't even afford to pay the surgical fees of six hundred thousand. Otherwise, Jennifer wouldn't have divorced him.” “If you're a security guard, then know your place. You shouldn't be here,” chimed in one of the men in the private room while lighting up his cigarette.
He was also Ysabel's classmate and was close to Hector.
Meanwhile, Cassie remarked sarcastically, “Ysabel, what's wrong with you? He's just a security guard. Why did you bring him here?”
On the contrary, Donald was unconcerned with their mockery since he had long outgrown the stage of showing off.
He would now do whatever he wanted, as long as he was happy with it.
If someone angered him, he would just get rid of them.
He had never been afraid of anyone anyway.
However, Ysabel could not stand it and retorted unhappily, “There's no need to be so rude. I haven't seen my cousin-in-law for three years. What's with that attitude of yours?”
All of a sudden, Hector had a bad feeling about it.
Hasn't seen her cousin-in-law for three years? Why did she emphasize this sentence? She didn't even notify her mother when she returned to Pollerton but asked Donald to pick her up and bring him to this kind of event. It shows that she has a very close relationship with him, not to mention that he's divorced.
A lot of thoughts crossed his mind in a flash. He decided to stop wasting time and went straight to the point. Pointing at the door, he said to Donald, “Get out of here.”
Donald shot Hector a glance, and the latter immediately felt as if he had fallen into an icy cellar when he saw the former's apathetic and hollow gaze.
Why is there no emotion in his eyes?
At the same time, Ysabel's expression turned grim. She pulled Donald's arm and was about to go out. “Donald, let's go”
After regaining his composure, Hector laughed self-deprecatingly.
He's just a security guard. What am I afraid of?
Finally, he stood up. “Ysabel, you stay here.”
Nevertheless, Ysabel shook her head and responded, “No, I'm going home.”
In fact, she was a little disappointed. Initially, she expected her classmates, whom she had not seen in three years, to be friendly when they finally reunited.
However, she realized that she was wrong.
They had all changed in the last three years, becoming avaricious and acting high and mighty.
After letting out a sigh, Winston piped up, “Donald, you're not qualified to be here. I admit that you have better luck with women than I do. However, a person's status is determined by their own strength. Relying on women isn't sufficient. Look around you.”
The next moment, he pointed to the surroundings and continued, “This set of couches costs hundreds of thousands, and that fish tank costs about fifty thousand. Even a coffee table is worth around seventy thousand. Meanwhile, you can't even collect six hundred thousand.”
Later, Derrick got up and said, “Donald, you'd better leave. We're here to talk about the land reclamation project. Torson International has won the bid with two billion, and we're the third-party contractor. Haven't you realized the difference in status between us?”
As he spoke, a look of arrogance showed on his face.
With a huge bid of two billion, they could earn at least one hundred million even if they were only a third party.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
