Chapter 673
Chapter 673 Aside from that, she was going to-take the opportunity to see if Shane's friends took a liking to Shelby and her friends.
Whitney would be doing both parties a huge favor if she managed to matchmake even one couple. A Arich husband was much more important in comparison to studying.
i To Whitney, there was no point in studying so hard since they were blessed with good looks. L It was just then that Wilbur entered the hall following the hotel servers.
"Wilbur!" Shelby skipped over to him, her ponytail swaying as she moved.
Wilbur patted her on the shoulder with a smile, but the gesture looked like he was _ taking advantage of her in Whitney's eyes.
‘Whitney frowned, coming up to the two of them saying, "Wilbur, quit it with your I groping. It's disrespectful to her, and highly telling of your character." "Dude, she's my sister. What's your problem?" Wilbur flared up in annoyance almost immediately. Why was this girl hell-bent on starting trouble with him, picking at him no matter what he did? Whitney scoffed. "'She has her own brother. You can drop the act." "Don't say that, Whitney," said Shelby in a hurried whisper.
Whitney frowned. "I'm only saying this for your own good. Gosh, when are you going to wake up?" Just then, Shane came over with his friends as well.
Shane looked Wilbur up and down, smiling at him. "What's your name?" "Wilbur Penn," said Wilbur calmly.
i Shane smiled. "Shane Almega. These are my friends. Homer Colt, Mark Lenkari, ' and Astor King." Wilbur nodded with a smile.
Yet just then, Whitney cut in with a smile of her own. "Let me do the introductions.
Mister Shane Almega, chairman of Comet Security. His family has a whole factory, and they earn three hundred million dollars annually at least." "It's an honor to meet you, Mister Almega," Wilbur said calmly.
Shane smiled, and Whitney went on. ! "Miser Homer Colt, Kardon Province representative of Vanguard Home Appliances. They make two hundred million dollars in sales every year. Mister Mark Lenkari's family owns a supermarket chain, valued on the market at three hundred million dollars. Mister Astor King here works in cable /- manufacturing and has a net worth of almost a hundred million dollars."
* "Wow, you're all so well-achieved for your age." Wilbur smiled politely.
Whitney's tone turned cold at once-“Why don't you tell us what you do, Wilbur? I heard you don't even have a job, do you?" Wilbur understood at last that Whitney was showing off to him, and tryingto « humiliate him. \ He gave it some thought, and said, "Uh, how do I put this? I guess I don't have a job, but you could say that Faye Yves, the chairman of Cape Consortium, works for me." Whitney, Shane, and his friends were all stunned for a moment.
However, after a moment, all of them burst out laughing. Whitney was practically in tears as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Wilbur stared at them, saying nothing.
After Whitney's laughter died down, she
\ said, "Come on, Wilbur. That's not \ something to joke about. Do you even "know how much Cape Consortium is ; worth? They're an international company worth billions of dollars. Miss Yves is a role model to all women. How dare you lie about something like that!" "My goodness, what a joke!" Shane said, shaking his head. "Even I don't have the chance to get to know Miss Yves. Who do you think you're kidding? No wonder Whitney said you were full of shit. I definitely believe her now." Shane gave Wilbur a disdainful look, . Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
shaking his head again.
Astor and the rest chuckled as well. Even though they said nothing, it was clear that they saw Wilbur as a joke.
Shelby tugged on Wilbur's sleeve, whispering to him, "Wilbur, you can't just say stuff like that. Cape is really ~~ powerful. You might be in trouble if Miss Yves hears you say that."
"What trouble could there possibly be? Come on, trust your brother," Wilbur smiled.
Shelby flushed awkwardly, not knowing what to say to that.
She knew that Wilbur was powerful, but Cape Consortium was way out of their league and Faye Yves was a legendary woman. How could she be working for Wilbur? Just then, Whitney sneered coldly. "I know you're prone to lying your face off, but aren't you scared of getting exposed / for the lies you're telling?"
