Chapter 682: Falling Out

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jane was just a young woman who had just graduated from college. Now that she suddenly suffered such humiliation, her face instantly flushed red.

At the same time, she felt very aggrieved and bewildered.

She had just given him a kind reminder on account that he was Lucas’s friend. She couldn’t fathom Brian’s anger toward her.

Did I really anger Mr. Gray’s friend because I was too nosy?

Jane felt aggrieved. But when she thought about how it was commonplace for many wealthy people to be temperamental and enjoy trampling on the dignity of others, coupled with the fact that Brian was Lucas’s friend, she had no choice but to force herself to endure the humiliation. She bent down to pick up the bank card on the floor.

“Wait. Don’t pick it up,” Lucas suddenly interjected coldly.

Although she didn’t quite understand why Lucas suddenly stopped her from accepting the humiliation his friend was subjecting her to, Lucas was her great benefactor, who had helped her a lot yesterday. So she subconsciously obeyed and stood up again.

Brian was displeased with Lucas.

“Punk, what are you doing?” Brian chided unceremoniously.

Lucas looked at Brian and Vanessa coldly. “Since you’re compensating for something, you should swipe your card properly. Such behavior is unacceptable. You’ve gone overboard.”

The Heavenly Pavilion was the property of the Parkers from LA, and the Parkers had already submitted themselves to Lucas. Thus, it could be said that Lucas was the biggest boss behind the Heavenly Pavilion and that Jane was his employee.

How could Lucas stand by and watch Brian take his anger out on his employee after breaking something in his store?

“Damn it. Who are you to lecture me?!” Brian flew into a rage and cursed at Lucas while pointing at his face.

Vanessa chimed in angrily, “My boyfriend is a thousand times better than you. How dare you teach us what to do when you’re just a penniless man? You must be joking. If it wasn’t for Charlotte, a loser like you wouldn’t even be qualified to speak to us. Who gave you the audacity to denounce us?”

Still not appeased after lashing out at Lucas, she turned around and vented her anger on Charlotte. “Charlotte, it’s not that I have to keep criticizing you, but look how terrible your boyfriend is! My boyfriend and I were kind enough to bring him to the Heavenly Pavilion for an eye-opener so that he wouldn’t be too embarrassing when he’s out with you, but what about him? How dare he help an outsider criticize us and say that we’re overboard?! He’s too ungrateful.

“Worst still, how did he get the courage to criticize my boyfriend? My boyfriend is so young, but he’s already the deputy general manager of the Solar Corporation, a huge company worth billions, and his net worth is hundreds of millions. What about your boyfriend? I’m afraid all the clothes on his body add up to less than a hundred dollars. Even if you marry him, you’ll have to suffer with this penniless man, and in no time, you’ll become old and haggard!

“Back in high school, you were the school belle and star student. So many boys courted you every day. Why has your taste in men become so terrible?

“They all say that the gap between people will widen five years after graduation, and it really seems to be the case! When I marry my boyfriend, I’ll be the wife of the deputy general manager of the Solar Corporation. Furthermore, in less than two years, I might become the wife of the general manager! And you? You won’t be able to get ahead in life if you marry this penniless man!

“If your man has so much time and effort to spare on reproving my boyfriend, he might as well spend it on improving himself and learning how to behave!

“If he’s willing to admit his mistakes and apologize to my boyfriend, I might even ask Brian to arrange for him to become a driver or take on random jobs!”

Vanessa said a long list of words, which she had been curbing the urge to say for a long time.

Anyway, she had shown off enough to Charlotte, and she was already getting ready to leave now. So she didn’t bother to pretend to be extremely close to Charlotte anymore, and her words became harsh and sarcastic.

Charlotte didn’t expect Vanessa to suddenly fall out with her and even speak in such a callous manner.

At first, Charlotte was actually elated to see Vanessa, her former best friend in high school. But as she continued to chat with Vanessa, she began to find her intolerable.

Given the way Vanessa behaved, she clearly didn’t have any intention to chat with her at all. Instead, she was just flaunting.

Charlotte had been tolerant toward her on account of their friendship. But now, Vanessa had not only taken the initiative to fall out with her, but she even nitpicked on Lucas and humiliated him greatly.

She was not a good-tempered person in the first place, and at this moment, she was exasperated.

“Enough! Vanessa, what are you putting on airs and flaunting in front of me for? What does my life have to do with you? Can’t you live without putting me down? Do you have to be so vicious?

“Don’t think I couldn’t tell why you dragged me here today. Wasn’t it just to show off to me? You just wanted to show off how rich your man is and how much he loves you. But what’s there to show off? Do those things belong to you? Without your man, what do you have to show off in front of me?

“What about your own job? How about your salary and savings? Do you dare to show them off? Do you have what it takes to show off?

“In my eyes, you are just a parasite sponging off a man. If your man leaves you one day, won’t you immediately end up with nothing? I really don’t know why you have the courage to show off in front of me when you’re living such a life!

“Also, do you know anything about us? Do you even know who Lucas is? You don’t know anything, but you jumped to conclusions. All you do is judge others by their appearance and mock them as you please. In my opinion, you two are the greatest jokes ever!”

Charlotte was a hot-tempered person to begin with, and now that she had lost her temper, she was definitely an even match for Vanessa. Every single word of hers hit the nail on its head, and she even called Vanessa out for being a parasite who was nothing without a rich man.

Charlotte’s words struck a sour note within Vanessa, and she immediately flew into a rage and hollered, “Hah, I bet you’re just being sour grapes! My boyfriend is just that capable. If you have what it takes, find yourself a boyfriend who’s rich and loves you! You’re just saying that because you’re inferior to me. You’re the joke!

“Just hold on to your poor boyfriend and live the rest of your life in misery! If you ever end up being too poor to eat and become a beggar showing up at my house, I won’t give you a morsel of food!”

“Haha!” Charlotte sneered. She suddenly felt that there was nothing for her to talk about to Vanessa, who wanted nothing but to rely on a man and viewed money as the most important criterion. They weren’t on the same page at all, and it would be a waste of time for her to say anything more.

Seeing Charlotte stop talking, Vanessa immediately felt that she had won the argument.

But when she noticed that everyone else around them seemed to be watching a drama, she no longer wanted to stay here. She rebuked Jane, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and pick up the card on the floor and swipe it. I don’t want to stay in this lousy place for another second!”

Jane was stuck in a dilemma, unsure if she should pick up the card or not.

At this moment, Lucas stopped her again and said to Brian, “Pick up the card yourself and apologize to this young lady!”

“Damn it! You’re pushing your luck. Do you believe I’ll beat you to death right now?” Boiling with fury, Brian rolled up his sleeves, raised his fist, and glared at Lucas threateningly..
