“Y—Yes! Yes we do!” Dana was so elated that her voice quavered as she spoke. This particular model was extremely expensive; it was good enough if they could see one of them per month.

Although quite a number of people bought Porsche cars, they still could not regularly sell a model that cost over 2 million. More importantly, Jack requested for two of the same model.

“Did…did I hear wrongly?” The other saleswoman’s jaws slacked. She stared at the credit card in shock. “No, wait,” she said. “What card is this? Why haven’t I seen it before?”

Jack’s lips twisted into a wry smile. “It’s a specially made card. There’s probably less than five of its kind in the entire world. It’d be stranger if you’ve seen it before! I think I’m the only one in Daxia who has it.”

The saleswoman suddenly flashed a humorless grin when she heard that. “You’re lying. Less than five of its kind in the world? We don’t know if you can swipe that card with that much money charged to it. If you’re really the only one in Daxia who has this card, then no one will recognize it, but that also means no one can prove that it’s real either. Isn’t that right? You’re pretty clever, aren’t you? What a seamless lie!”

Selena stifled her chuckle with a hand over her mouth; her husband was exaggerating his wealth to another level. Less than five of that card in the whole world, and he was the only one in Daxia who had one? He really had an inflated opinion of himself. The lie was so bad that even the gods would frown upon him.

“You’re the best, Daddy!” Selena felt embarrassed when Kylie stared at Jack in pure admiration, her eyes practically sparkling.

“All right, let’s get the bill. The two cars will cost 5.4 million dollars in total.” Selena said to Jack, a stiff smile on her face.

“Sir, aren’t… Aren’t you going to bargain with us? We can provide special offers!”

The saleswoman’s expression was stricken with panic. It was the first time she had seen someone spending over 5 million dollars in one shot, and he did not even try to bargain!

“Hmm? No thank you. It’s too troublesome. It’s so late already, and we have an appointment tonight. How about this: just give us a toll card!” Jack inattentively bargained after he thought about it.

“All right. I’ll give you a toll card worth 20 thousand dollars!” Dana was practically jumping with joy. She quickly handled the necessary documents before bringing Jack to the payment counter.

The face of the salespeople who had been looking down on Jack earlier suddenly darkened. A sale of over 5 million, and Dana snatched up this bigshot customer.

“Sir, Miss, the insurance will be effective immediately, but you won’t have a license plate if you drive the cars now. It’ll take a few days before the plates will be issued, but we’ll provide temporary plates.” Dana spoke with a small smile as her heart leaped with delight. Never could she have imagined that this man would be such a wealthy tycoon.

“All right, then we’ll just drive it off first!” Jack nodded his head, and the husband-and-wife pair drove the cars from the shop. They stopped at a nearby gas station to refuel their cars before returning to the dilapidated garden.

“Wow, a Porsche 911!” Ben was resting in the garden. He opened the door to the sight of the two new cars, and he immediately cried out, “These are definitely not the lower-spec models either. Heh. It’s got to be at least 2 to 3 million per car!

“Who’s driving them? Why do I feel like they’re driving inside here? Don’t tell me that Jack offended some tycoon again and they’re here to create trouble for us.” Xena stood up too, gulping.

Soon enough, the cars came straight in, parking within the perimeter of the garden’s fence.

“Mom, we’re back!” Selena was grinning, pure happiness on her expression.

For the past five years, their family had suffered together. At that period, Selena constantly thought of how wonderful it would be to live a good life or drive a nice car. Unfortunately, she had not much of a choice back then. She could only grit her teeth and move on to survive.

It was only natural that she was overcome with giddiness as she could finally drive a luxury car worth more than 2 million.

“Huh? I—It’s Selena!” Fiona rushed out of the house. She noticed that it was Jack and Selena who got out of the cars, and she abruptly yelled to the house, “Andrew, come here! Look! It’s our daughter. Oh my goodness, what a beautiful car. It must have cost quite a pretty penny.”

“Selena, what…what’s going on?” Ben walked up to her. “It must’ve been expensive, and it looks new. Dear God, don’t tell me that this is yours?” he asked.

“Well…” Selena cast a glance towards her husband, frowning. She did not know how to explain this.

If she told her mother that Jack had plenty of cash on hand to buy these two cars, she would surely think that Jack had refused to take his money to compensate for her stolen 3.8 million dollars. She would not be so happy then!

Jack shared this thought and was just as stunned as his wife.

Fiona quickly stepped forward when Selena did not answer immediately. “I see… Jack, you little punk. Did you get my 3.8 million back?” she huffed. “And you just took the money to buy these two sportscars? That’s too much! That’s my money! How can you just use it to buy your car without my approval? These cars are too expensive; all they do is burn a hole in your pocket. It’s fine if we’re rich, but we wouldn’t even be able to feed ourselves if we weren’t!”

“Luckily Jack and Selena make good money now. It won’t be a problem!” Andrew chimed in from the side. He stared at the handsome new cars, the red coat of paint that gleamed over their bodies. The sight sent a chill down his spine.

“Where did you find the money then? Tell me, Jack, did you find my 3.8 million? I told you to find it for me, not use it to buy new cars.” Fiona glared at Jack, panting with anger as she asked the questions. That was her money—her life.

Jack thought about it for a while, and soon after, he chuckled. “Mom, how could I?” he said, smiling. “This isn’t your money at all!”

“Then is it yours? You punk. You still have that much money? How much do you still have? Take it out and give me my 3.8 million…” Fiona stuck her hand out towards Jack as she asked for the money.

Jack flashed a mirthless smile. “It’s not my money either. Tanya bought the cars for me. Heh!”

Selena also released a sigh of relief. “That’s right. Tanya does everything without a thought given to it,” she added quickly. “She just gave each of us a car after she found out that we have none. It’s so that we’ll have our own transport to work!”

“So Tanya gave them to you? That’s awesome! She gave such expensive cars to us just like that. My goodness, our luck might just run out!” Andrew was extremely excited. He stepped forward and carefully trailed his hand over the car as though he was touching a child’s unmarred skin. “How much is one of this? At least a million? It’s a Porsche, right?”

It was obvious that Andrew did not know cars.

“Dad, it’s the Porsche 911. The cheapest model costs at least 1 million, but this doesn’t look like the 1 million-dollars model!” Ben spoke as he raked his eyes over the car.

“Tanya is such a nice person!” Joan had just emerged from the kitchen. She had overheard the entire conversation and gracefully spoke, “I don’t know how we can ever thank Miss Tanya! She’s our savior; she’s helped us so much before, and now she’s given us such luxurious cars.”

To make everyone believe that Tanya had given the cars, Jack tacked on after he thought about it for a while. “These cars aren’t actually ours, either; they’re Miss Tanya’s. She just bought them to let us drive them, so basically they’re hers. We’re only given the chance to drive them around, but we’ll have to resign if I resign.”

No. 1 Supreme Warrior Novel By Moneto Chapter 213

“Exactly! That’s how it is!” Selena managed an awkward smile. If her mother ever found out that Jack had used his money to buy two cars worth over 5 million, she would probably tell Jack to dig through his wallet in front of her.

Fortunately, Jack was quick on his feet. He just shoved the responsibility toward Tanya.

“The Drake family sure is rich. They let you two drive company cars, and they’re such luxurious models too!”

“How much did she spend to buy this?” Ben asked Jack with excitement.

“Not a lot, about 2.7 million per car!” Jack grinned.

“2.7 million per car… Just as I thought: A car like this would at least cost 2 million, and it’s actually 2.7 million per car. My God, it’s amazing. This is a car that a man should drive!” Ben was so excited that he

gave a small jump. His body was practically quivering with delight.

“Then don’t tell me that two cars come to over 5 million in total? My God, a rich man’s world is unimaginable!” Xena was stunned too. She swallowed a bitter gulp.

She had intended to see if she could mingle with the upper class through Ben. After all, he was an aristocrat. Of course he had been chased out of the family, but who knew if Old Master Taylor saw the light one day. She never thought that to those who were truly wealthy, 5 million was a drop in the bucket.

“These are ours! They’ll be ours!” Fiona exclaimed.

“Jack, Selena, that Miss Tanya is the daughter of James Drake, so she is the wealthiest woman in the entire Eastfield,” Fiona rambled in exhilaration. “The Drake family is probably even wealthier than the Four Major Families! It seems like Miss Tanya truly values the two of you, so I’m telling you to not do anything stupid. Just do a good job and maintain your position, understand?”

“I know that, Ma. We’ll definitely work hard, since Miss Tanya is so good to us!” Selena smiled.

“So if you don’t quit your job, the cars are basically ours!” Fiona crowed. “If others ask you whose car is this on the streets, just say that it’s yours. Understand? Just tell them that you bought it. Others won’t know the entire situation, so they’ll definitely believe you. We’ll have such an indisputable reputation!” Fiona’s vanity suddenly surged within her. “Heh… I want to ride in this car too one day. I have to go out into the streets in it!”

“All right, all right. Don’t worry. We’ll tell everyone that we bought it ourselves!” Selena looked at her husband and flashed him a humorless smile; she did not know whether to laugh or cry. The cars were theirs in the first place anyway.

“All right, all right. Why don’t you come in and rest first? Dinner will be ready once the rice is done!” A satisfied smile lit up Joan’s face. Everything would be all right so long as her son lived a good life.

She had always believed that her son would not let the Taylors down. Fiona and Andrew—as well as other members of the Taylor family—would certainly acknowledge her son eventually.

“Oh, right. Did you help to look for my money this afternoon, Jack?” Fiona raised the question when the hype had died down.

Jack’s lips curved into a stiff smile. “We did poke around for a bit, but there are no clues as of now. Miss Tanya called us by then and asked us to pick out a car. At first, I thought she was taking us to choose a regular car, but who knew that she would actually take us into a Porsche store.”

“You should start looking harder, then. I did give you seven days after all. You either find the money, or you pay me that amount of money. Got it?”

“Don’t worry, Ma. Jack will definitely get your money back.” Selena gave her a tight smile and replied, “All right. Jack and I are going to a class reunion later. A few of my old classmates invited us to go and drink and sing our hearts out in a bar! I haven’t seen them in forever, so I have to go.”

Jack and Selena rested for a while before they went off to shower, and they then prepared to go out when it was about time.

“Huh? Mom, where are the cars?” Selena’s expression darkened when she saw the empty porch. She had heard the sound of a starting car when she was showering but assumed that it came from the road. She never expected that the Porsches would have been driven off.

“Oh. Xena and your brother took the cars out for a spin,” Fiona said simply.

The corners of Selena’s mouth twitched. “Ma, can’t they just drive one car if they wanted to drive that badly?” she said to Fiona. “Why did they drive both off? They knew that I had to go for an appointment. Why couldn’t they have left one car for me? What should Jack and I do now?”

“Ah, your brother just wants to go out and show off in front of his friends!” Fiona replied immediately, dismissing her daughter’s concern. “He asked you and Jack to call a cab to wherever you’re supposed to go first and let them drive the cars, and you can call them when you’re about to leave. He and Xena will take you.”

Selena was rendered speechless. Jack had put his life at risk on the battlefield to earn money for them, and he even bought her a luxury car so that she would be able to stand proudly before her classmates. She never imagined that her own little brother and Xena would take the cars out while they were bathing.

In the end, all she could do was flash a pained smile. “Looks like we can only call a cab now,” she spoke dejectedly.

Jack shrugged his shoulders, an equally tight smile on his face as well. “No way around it. Who knew that you had such an inconsiderate little brother?” He mused. “By the way, your old university mates are cultured, right? I hope they’re not as snobbish as Rachel.”

When he said that, Jack looked as though he just thought of something as he added, “Oh, yeah. Did something happen between you and Rachel during your university days? Why would she treat you so disdainfully otherwise? She could at least give you some respect after so many years, right?”

Selena felt overwhelmed at that moment. “She always thought that she was prettier than me back in university, so she thought that she should be the belle of the class. But…”

“Oh,” Jack concluded, “so it’s because she’s not as pretty as you, but she still thinks she’s prettier than you. And she envied you because of that. So now that she’s married to a rich man, she’s trying to

stamp out your presence!” Jack quickly picked up on the underlying message. “Don’t bother about these people,” he added, “she actually has really low self-esteem!”

“That’s right!” Selena offered her husband a kind smile before her gaze fell on Jack’s clothing.

“Why don’t you buy some nicer clothes later on? You did buy mine earlier, but yours…”

Jack checked his watch. “Never mind, we don’t have that much time. My clothes are pretty clean too, and I just changed into them. We don’t need to go and buy a special fancy outfit. It doesn’t matter what I wear anyway, so long as you’re dressed up nicely!”

“You sure know your way around words!” The two of them exchanged words as they walked out. They quickly hailed a cab and went straight to The Lotus Bar.

At that moment, quite a few people had already gathered before the bar’s entrance.

Hugh gave a winsome smile. “Oh, right. There’s a surprise for all of you today. Our class belle Selena Taylor—who had disappeared off the radar for a long time—will join us! I so happened to run into her at the entrance of the zoo, and I managed to get her on board.”

“Really? We haven’t seen her in years. I wonder how she is now!”

No. 1 Supreme Warrior Novel By Moneto Chapter 215

“She’s a woman of the Taylor family and had a knack for business. I remember how her results were always the best when we still studied together. She must be doing much better than us regular white- collar workers!” a woman spoke aloud. She was dressed in a crisp white shirt and a black pencil skirt.

“Heh… I don’t think you’ll ever be able to imagine what actually happened to Selena and what she’s doing now, Rosa!” A bespectacled man adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose. He exuded a

smart, stylish countenance. “Five years ago, not long after we graduated,” he said to Rosa, “Selena got married!”

“What? She got married?” Rosa was shocked when she heard that. It was not considered too late for the modern woman to get married, especially for a strong, career-oriented woman like Selena. Furthermore, she was only 27 years old. Selena was about her age. If she had married five years ago, then her child—if she had one—would be able to walk and run by now.

“Isn’t that true though? I heard the rumor too!” Another woman said, smiling.

“She still needs to come!”

Rachel’s expression turned gloomy. She never expected Hugh to have invited Selena to their gathering. Just that afternoon, although she and her husband had walked away unscathed from Jack at the kindergarten, the people they had hired to fight for them had been beaten black and blue. They were all sent to the hospital and the total bill would probably come to about two to three million dollars.

Furthermore, these people needed to go for physical rehab, asides from the treatment fees. She and her husband would have to pay yet another pretty sum of money no matter what to appease them. The total amount she and her husband would have to spend was enough to make them cry.

“What’s wrong, Rachel? Why do you look so glum? Don’t tell me you’re not looking forward to seeing her?”

Hugh frowned. He always thought that Rachel seemed to have a grudge against everybody.

“Oh, right. Now I remember! You and Selena didn’t get along well, did you?”

The woman named Rosa Reyes then asked, “What’s wrong? Did you see her already? How is she now? Do you know?”

The more Rachel thought about it, the angrier she got. She had been bullied by that good-for-nothing husband of hers today. More importantly, they would not dare to offend the other party anymore in the future. Since Jack and Selena were not around, Rachel thought of saying something to destroy their reputation.

Mulling over it for a while, she then commented, “Don’t talk about it anymore. I just met her family this morning while we were registering our kid at a kindergarten. Selena is such a hypocrite now. She doesn’t have any money, yet she struts about as though she were a tycoon. Heh. I bet you guys don’t know that she married a delivery boy. This is what happened: the Taylor family had to send one of their sons to the military…”

Rachel narrated the troubles Selena had been facing throughout these five years in detail first before she wrapped up her story. “So think about it: How much money would a jobless, trash-picker have? Her husband has probably not been back for long either, and he’s definitely another impoverished soul. Even with all that, they still brought their daughter to register at Eastfield’s best privately-owned kindergarten today!”

“That’s right. They still want the best kindergarten even though they have no money? It’s all talk! I wonder who they borrowed money from to pay the tuition fees!” Dylan also came to the gathering, his rotund figure heaving heavily. He had not been in a good mood the whole day.

However, Rachel’s university mates—the female ones in particular—all had splendid figures and had pretty attractive features too. His sour mood was lifted slightly at the sight He thanked his lucky stars he came along tonight; his eyes were blessed with the sight of such pretty ladies!

“No way. That’s terrible. Never mind if they’re poor, but faking appearances too…” Rosa never thought that Selena would turn out like this. Not only did she not marry a good man, she even scraped her pockets just for the sake of her vanity. Her untainted impression of Selena immediately shattered.

No. 1 Supreme Warrior Novel By Moneto Chapter 216

“Right? Selena is like a totally different person now. Such a hypocrite… She doesn’t have money, yet she likes to pretend that she does! And you guys haven’t met her husband yet,” Rachel rambled venomously. “He’s such a boorish man. All he knows is fighting, and he isn’t that educated. He does nothing but get into brawls all day. I can’t imagine how Selena’s future will be like, married to a man like that!”

The initially silent Dylan then fanned the flames by saying, “Right? People of his sort always have violent tendencies. Heh… If Selena provokes him one day, we might have a case of domestic abuse!”

Rosa grew frightened as she heard this. “No way… I hate violent men. What kind of man beats up women?”

“Isn’t it so? I think Selena doesn’t have a good life now!”

“But Selena shot herself in the foot too. She’s so pretty, so much so that she’s even known as the Beauty Queen of Eastfield. It’d be fine if she just simply married some rich fellow. Anyone would’ve been ten times better than her current husband!” Rachel huffed, looking as though she felt exasperated for Selena’s sake.

“The Selena from before wasn’t such a vainpot!” Rosa sighed. It was a real pity that Selena turned out like that.

“Heh… That’s because she had money before. She didn’t care too much about appearances because she was rich! Now she’s no longer the wealthy young missus without her family to back her up. She’s probably still not used to the poor man’s life even after five years, and she’s still thinking that she’s a high-class lady!” Rachel continued, chuckling.

After she finished speaking, she noticed Matt by the side, smoking silently. “Eh, Matt, why aren’t you saying anything?” she said. “Oh, I almost forgot… Selena was your ex, wasn’t she? You guys were dating for one year back in university, right?”

Matt’s expression darkened. “Rachel, why do you still like to speak such nonsense?” he responded. “How old is your kid now? Probably older than Selena’s, right? You’re already a mother, but why do I feel like you’re still keeping petty scores against her?”

“What a chivalrous man, speaking up for her. Don’t tell me that you like her? Perhaps you still secretly harbor feelings for her?”

Rachel flashed a mirthless smile, not caring about Matt’s girlfriend who stood right beside him. Her expression morphed into a grimace.

“Matt, is that true? That Selena Taylor is your ex? Do you still like her?” The pretty young woman standing by his side huffed at him. She was clad in a provocative mini black dress.

“Don’t listen to her, Brit. That happened ages ago. We’re about to get married anyway. Do you really care about all this?” Matt immediately explained to Britney before him. She was from a well-to-do family and was considered a wealthy young lady; Matt on the other hand was an attractive young man. He was with Britney to live a comfortable life.

He understood that a man without money was not a man at all. Someone like that would be regarded as trash no matter where he went. That was why he chose to live off his girlfriend—to come into money, to enjoy a rich man’s life.

“Hmph. I want to see if this class belle of yours is prettier than I am. She’s already given birth to a kid. She must look like an old goat now!” Britney harrumphed frostily, evidently displeased. She was only 24 years old. Not only was she young, but she also had an excellent figure. She did not believe that she was less attractive than this so-called Selena.novelbin

“That’s right. She’s definitely not as pretty as you are. She had a kid and is picking up trash for a living now. How can she ever compare to you, the young mistress of Lee?” Matt immediately tried to appeal to her.

“Of course!” Britney lifted her chin, looking like a proud giraffe.

“He’s here! Trevor’s here!”

At this moment, Trevor—who had just returned from overseas—parked his car near the entrance.

“Not bad, bro. Nice BMW!” Dylan instantly grinned when he saw it.

“Aren’t you driving a BMW too? And his model isn’t as expensive as yours!” Hugh commented, not knowing whether to laugh or cry about his own fate.

No. 1 Supreme Warrior Novel By Moneto Chapter 217

“Oh right, Rachel’s husband is going to treat us, right? He’s a factory manager, a big boss. This small amount of money is nothing to him,” Rosa said, smiling.

Dylan’s expression darkened. It was true: he had said that he was going to treat everyone to bolster his reputation. However, the incident from that morning cost him a lot of money. Moreover, their factory had not received a lot of orders these past two months. He might not be able to foot the bill if they ate and drank until it raked up to a few hundred thousand. More importantly, he would need to pay plenty of medical bills to the hospital.

“N—No problem!” Rachel managed an awkward smile. She had said that while she was boasting. She could not turn back now, not when her reputation was at stake.

“Hello, everyone. Long time no see!” Trevor chuckled heartily as he walked over.

“That’s right, Trevor. We haven’t seen each other in a long time. We’re gathered here today to welcome you back!”

Hugh smiled. “What happened? Your girlfriend isn’t with you?”

“Oh, she had some business to attend to tonight. That’s why she isn’t here.”

Trevor scanned the crowd. “What’s wrong? Aren’t we all here? Why aren’t we going in yet?”

“Heh. A very beautiful woman hasn’t arrived yet. Want to take a lucky guess, Trevor?” Rachel spoke in a mysterious tone.

“A very beautiful woman?” Trevor was stunned for a while, and after racking his mind, he answered, “You’re already here…so the only other person who you call ‘beautiful’ is Selena Taylor, right? What happened? You guys managed to get in contact with her?”

Rachel never expected Trevor to guess the answer so fast. Her expression soured slightly. “That’s right. We got into contact with her. Only, she’s changed so much over the past few years!”

After she said that, she quickly launched into yet another narration of Selena’s life to Trevor, who had just returned to the country.

At this moment, a taxi pulled over on the roadside. Selena and Jack got down from it.

Selena wore the branded outfit Jack had bought for her. She was already exuding elegance on her own; she seemed even more of a lady when she wore the new clothing.

She smiled sweetly at everyone when she got down from the car. The men were taken aback by her appearance.

“Matt, you’re here!” Selena was slightly shocked at the sight of her ex. Back during their university days, she had dated Matt because she thought he was attractive.

Unfortunately, Selena only allowed Matt to hold her hand even after nearly a year of dating. She told him that she wanted to save everything else for marriage. She never expected Matt to actually argue with her over this. He subsequently cheated on her and slept with Rachel behind her back. Selena could not accept something like this. She could not accept how Matt told her that he loved her yet had slept with her friend. Needless to say, she broke up with him. Of course, Matt and Rachel were not together either. Matt wanted money and so did Rachel, yet the two did not want to look for the money themselves, so they chose to find rich partners. If Selena had known Matt was here, she never would have come no matter how much she was pressed. She was already here though, so all she could do was manage a small smile.

“Oh, so this is your ex. She’s really pretty!” Matt’s girlfriend, Britney, stepped forward. She had a frosty smile on her face as she spoke, “It’s a pity that a gorgeous woman like you married a foot soldier. He can’t even afford a scooter, and you guys used a cab to come over. What a waste of an excellent face and figure!”

“Ex?” Jack was taken aback for a moment before he gave a wry smile. It seemed that this was not going to be a peaceful night.

No. 1 Supreme Warrior Novel By Moneto Chapter 218

Selena turned to look at her husband. She gave him a bitter smile. “Do you want to hear the whole story? We only dated for one year during university.”

Jack nodded his head. “No need to explain.”

It was true that she did not need to explain anything. After all, everything that happened before he met Selena was her business. Additionally, he clearly remembered what he saw—blood on the sheet—

during their wedding night. It indicated that Selena was not someone who slept around. Jack was not angry in the least, and this took Selena aback.

Furthermore, he took a step forward and faced the woman who had been the first to spark a drama— Britney. “Does it matter how we come here, Miss?” he challenged. “Is it so wrong to use a cab?” Here, Jack paused for a bit before continuing, emphasizing every word, “Besides, don’t look down on soldiers. Would you live such peaceful lives without us?”

“I always heard that poor people are ill-mannered. It’s the first time I’ve met someone so poor yet so rude!” Britney chuckled and gestured to an Audi A6 parked by the side. “Do you see that? That’s my car. It’s not very expensive, but you guys probably won’t be able to afford it even if you worked your entire life. This is the difference between us!” she said. “The others also drove here; Audis, BMWs. Don’t you feel like a failure as a man?”

“Hmph. What’s there to be sorry about?” Jack gave an unamused smile. “If you want to use cars as a measurement for wealth, then we’ll go get the two Porsche 911s that we have in our house. Doesn’t that mean we’re richer than you? Will you get on your knees and call me Daddy then?”

“Porsche 911?”

Britney was stunned for a moment, then she sniggered. “Hilarious! Would anyone who has two Porsche 911s call a cab?”

Here, her gaze sidled toward Rachel. “This lady said that you called a cab when you took your kid for registration too,” she added. “You two can’t even afford an Alto, and you say that you have 911s? Tell me: how much did the Porsche 911s cost you? Is it the type that requires you to frequently change its battery?”

A few of them could not help but laugh when they heard this.

“Oh, Selena, I never expected you to turn into such a prideful person! You’re just like your husband. There’s nothing wrong with calling a cab, but you guys claim that you have a Porsche 911—two of them!” The woman named Rosa released a sigh. She felt that Selena had truly changed. She pretended to have money even though she had none—all for the sake of vanity!

Was this the same classmate who did not place that much importance on money?

“Rosa, my husband isn’t lying. We do have two 911s. We bought them in the afternoon, thinking that it would be easier for us to just drive to work!” Selena explained, wearing a stiff smile.

“Fine. Whatever you say. Not like I’m going to sit in your car anytime soon!” It was obvious that Rosa still did not believe her.

“Oh, you two are here. What a coincidence!” Jack walked over to Dylan and Rachel. His eyes narrowed. “It seems like you’ve been wagging your tongues about us before we arrived, eh?”

Fear gripped Dylan when he recalled how skilled of a fighter Jack was—how his men were still lying on hospital beds. He quickly waved his hand dismissively. “No, no. We were just chit-chatting. We just told them that we ran into you in the morning. That’s all!”

The rest of the group exchanged glances. Dylan was usually booming and boisterous, but now the factory manager seemed a little afraid of Jack.

No. 1 Supreme Warrior Novel By Moneto Chapter 219

“Nevermind. Some people are too thick-faced, and we can’t do anything about it! If she says that she has a 911 and yet she doesn’t drive it here, what can we do? We can’t just go to her house to take a look at it, right?”

As a plan brewed on its own in her head, Britney then spoke with a disdainful grin, “All right then. How about this? Since it’s a class reunion, why don’t we just go Dutch for today’s bill? We’ll split expenses by counting heads. I believe that someone who drives a Porsche 911 would have no qualms about this?”

No one was dumb enough not to realize the implication of this; they knew Britney was stirring trouble with Selena on purpose. She was evidently not pleased, looking at her boyfriend’s ex. Matt had even spoken up on her behalf earlier, and this only made a petty person like her even more vexed. The bill here would definitely not be cheap and everyone would still need to fork out quite a bit of money even after they split it. It would be awkward for Selena and Jack if they did not have any money.

“Sure thing! I think this works out. Dylan is a factory manager, but it’s not easy for him to earn money too. We can’t just take advantage of his generosity. Let’s go Dutch!” Hugh’s girlfriend stepped forward and spoke, a small smile on her face.

Dylan and Rachel did not want to treat everyone in the first place, so they were happy when they heard this. The couple immediately agreed to the idea. Since the majority agreed, including the fairly earning Rosa and the stylish bespectacled man who did not lack money, the others also agreed.

“So what now? Everyone has already agreed to it. What about you two? It isn’t cheap here. You better think twice! Still, even if we call for a vote, you’d have to go along with the majority, so your vote doesn’t matter!” Here, Britney seemed even more arrogant.

“I’ll go along with whatever you decide, Honey!” Selena was unsure of their financial circumstances. They had just spent 5 million to buy two cars today. She did not know how much was left in Jack’s card. If they did not have at least one or two hundred thousand dollars, they really could not go in to have dinner. After all, Jack must have spent almost all of his money by now. Ever since he came back, he spent over 8 million in total.

“Whatever you want, really. I intended to treat them to dinner tonight. After all, I haven’t treated your classmates to a meal after we married. This is the first time I’m meeting all of you, so I thought that I’d treat everyone this once. I never thought that you guys wanted to go Dutch but, since it’s like that, let’s do it then!” came Jack’s sincere assurance, though with a wry smile on his face.

He had spoken with Selena on the way here. These were her old schoolmates and, as her husband, he should be the one up keeping her reputation. He did intend to foot the bill. Of course, then they could call for another gathering had they turned out to be kind people. Since they were snobs and unsightly people, this was going to be the last dinner they had together.

He never expected that woman to think he could not even foot the bill if they split it. What a joke! Never mind going Dutch: He could probably buy the entire Lotus Bar and Lounge.

“Hah! Since you wanted to do that, who are we to rob you of that opportunity?”

Britney was stunned for a while. ‘This fellow was making empty brags for the sake of his pride again,’ she thought. If this was the case, it would fit just fine with her agenda.

“You’re going to treat us to dinner? True. You’re the husband of our class belle. It’s only natural that you treat us, having married such a beautiful woman!” The bespectacled man adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses. A coy smile played on his lips.

“What’s going on now? Just now you said that it was not easy for Dylan to make money, and now you think that it’s not easy for me to make money because I’m the one treating you to dinner?”

Jack thought that the situation was hilarious. These people wanted to turn him into a joke.

Everyone visibly stiffened when they heard this, especially Britney. Her features immediately contorted.

“That’s different,” Britney retorted, “and Dylan isn’t obligated to treat us to dinner. He’s just generous. Anyway, you said it yourself; it’s your first time meeting us. This and that are different! What now? Don’t tell me that you’re scared because we want you to treat us now?”

Quite a few people barely stifled their laughter. After Jack heard that they were going Dutch, he did say he wanted to treat them to dinner. Why did he not say anything earlier if he wanted to boast so badly? It was obvious that he wanted to pretend that he was rich, even though he had no intention of forking out money. Unfortunately, everyone had a terrible impression of both Selena and her husband now, thus they mocked them without thinking twice anymore.

“All right then. This meal is on me. Let’s go! Let’s drink to our heart’s content!” Jack said after he gave it some thought.

“Let me warn you that this bar is pretty expensive. The least you’ll have to pay is 10 to 20 thousand dollars. I can’t say how high the bill will go. A few hundred thousand or even more, perhaps! Also, the people who frequent this bar are mostly rich young men from affluent families. Are you sure you want to treat us?” Britney said, grinning.

She assumed that Jack would be scared sh*tless after he heard this, and he would not have the confidence to go in.

Yet Jack replied blithely, “Rich young men? I’ve seen plenty of them. Ken Clark, Michael Wilson, Neil Hugo, and the likes!”

Everyone took in a sharp intake of breath when they heard this. These three men were all young masters of aristocratic families. Before Dylan and the others, Britney was regarded as a wealthy young lady, but the Lee family was regarded as a second-rate blueblood family. As for someone who opened a small factory like Dylan, he was nothing to these aristocrats. They did not just dabble in the manufacturing of one product, and they certainly did not open just one factory.

“My God, you know that many aristocrats?” Dylan gulped. The light in his eyes as he regarded Jack shifted.

“Of course, especially Ken Clark and Neil Hugo. I’ve beaten them up real good, though I haven’t touched Michael Wilson yet!” Jack flashed a wicked smile as he spoke bluntly.

Everyone’s faces twitched. Was this guy serious? This guy had beaten up those two young masters? Would their underlings stand for it?

“Hmph. You really know how to brag!” Britney’s lips quickly curved into a frosty smile after her initial shock subsided. “You’ve seen them before, do you? Plenty of people have seen them too. If you walk on the streets and spot them from afar, that counts as ‘seeing’ them too. And did you really think that we’d believe that you’ve beaten them up? You’d be long dead if you had done that!”

Anxiety twisted Selena’s guts. Jack was speaking the truth, but it was too preposterous for them to believe. If she had not seen it with her own eyes, she probably would not have believed it herself.

“Seriously though, you speak lies so easily as though you’re being honest. You almost had me fooled, but we’re not idiots. It’s so easy to see that it’s impossible once you put some thought into it. You’re just a retired military man. Could you still be here talking to us, alive and well, if you really beat up the young masters of the Clarks and the Wilsons? Oh, wait, don’t tell me… You’re a spirit talking to us!”

The man with the gold-rimmed glasses smiled, his eyes narrowing. “Oh dear. Never mind that Selena is now a prideful person who brags about things she doesn’t have—I never expected her husband to be an even greater braggart than her! You two are truly a match made in heaven!”

“Quiet, Carl!” Only Hugh spoke up for Selena and Jack; he did push them to come over, after all. Now that everyone was belittling Selena, he felt guilty.

It was only when he saw that Hugh was not happy did Carl say, “All right, all right. Let’s go in. I’m drinking more if someone’s buying!”

“Sure, sure. Drink more!”
