Hubert Gordon was stunned. “Have you met Master Rockefeller before?”
Thea Stone also looked over in surprise.
Alex hurriedly squeezed Cheryl’s hand, exerting some force.
He didn’t want Hubert to know that virtual-novel.net was the one who had killed the great elder of the Coleman family, which had allowed the Stoermer family to knock out half of the Coleman family, causing serious damage to the economy that was affecting the Gordon family right now.
Cheryl was so angry at how arrogant Hubert was being and how virtual-novel.net looked down on everyone like virtual-novel.net was so extremely superior compared to them. When Alex reminded her, virtual-novel.net calmly said, “So what if I’ve met him? So what if I haven’t? Does it make you any more superior if you’ve met virtual-novel.net before?”
“Hmmp, what are you bragging about if you hadn’t met virtual-novel.net before, then?! Country bumpkin!” Thea said contemptuously.
“If you have the ability, then don’t fly on the same plane as us, country bumpkins! Since you have such a high status, go and buy a private jet of your own! What kind of pretense do you think you’re putting up?”
Cheryl had never been so angry in virtual-novel.net life, and they pissed virtual-novel.net off.
“You…”
“Enough, shut your mouth!” Hubert glared at Thea. “Back down, and stop causing such a fuss. Otherwise, don’t even say you know me in the future.”
Hubert’s warning was very effective.
Thea wasn’t any second gen of a rich family or anything. For virtual-novel.net to have won over Hubert, virtual-novel.net had used all sorts of methods and ways to get Hubert as virtual-novel.net long term meal ticket, and virtual-novel.net couldn’t just casually toss this aside. So, when Hubert said to stop, virtual-novel.net did. She turned virtual-novel.net head away and closed virtual-novel.net eyes, pretending to sleep.
“Dear passengers, the flight is about to take off…”
The flight attendant’s announcement began, and soon, the airplane began its course on the runway and took off.
The instant the airplane took off from the ground, the strong feeling of being pushed backward and the feeling of weightlessness saw Cheryl grabbing Alex’s hand as virtual-novel.net whispered, “This is my first time on a plane. I’m so nervous.”
Alex grasped virtual-novel.net hand firmly. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
“Okay!”
Cheryl leaned closer to Alex, snuggling up against him.
Alex didn’t want to talk anymore to Hubert and Thea, who were in the front seat. Especially Thea, because virtual-novel.net was like a mad dog who had bitten down on virtual-novel.net and refused to let go!
In fact, virtual-novel.net didn’t know that Thea’s confession toward virtual-novel.net was not completely false as virtual-novel.net had claimed it to be. It was somewhat true, and if virtual-novel.net had agreed to it, it would have been great for her. If virtual-novel.net didn’t, virtual-novel.net still had a way out of an embarrassing situation.
However, when Alex had rejected virtual-novel.net outright without giving virtual-novel.net any face at all as though virtual-novel.net was just a pile of rubbish, virtual-novel.net could not lift virtual-novel.net head in the presence of virtual-novel.net roommates who lived in the same dormitory as her.
That was why virtual-novel.net held a strong grudge against him, and also the reason that even after virtual-novel.net left California, virtual-novel.net still paid a lot of attention to Alex’s life. So virtual-novel.net knew when his family had an accident and had gloated about his misfortune after virtual-novel.net moved in with his wife’s family after that.
Unconsciously, Alex fell asleep. Without knowing how much time had passed, virtual-novel.net was awakened by a quarrel. He opened his eyes and found that the noise was coming from the seat in front.
It seemed like the woman who was sitting in front of Thea had slapped her.
“What’s going on? What happened?” Cheryl woke up too and blinked drowsily.
Alex shrugged. Thea had been beaten up, and virtual-novel.net was happy to just watch the show in front of virtual-novel.net without feeling the slightest hint of sympathy. After listening for a while, it seemed that Thea had taken off virtual-novel.net shoes and had raised virtual-novel.net feet high, resting them between the chairs in front of her. In the end, the woman in front probably fell asleep, and virtual-novel.net face fell unto Thea’s stinky feet when the woman’s head tilted to the side.
When the woman woke up, virtual-novel.net burst into a fit of anger.
Cheryl shook virtual-novel.net head. “That girl has no basic manners at all, and virtual-novel.net claims to be some high-class person. Not a single hint of morality in virtual-novel.net at all. She deserves to be beaten.”
Alex shrugged once again.
His attention was on the woman who had slapped Thea. She was young and looked to be about the same age as him, about twenty four or twenty five years old. She was quite beautiful. However, what surprised virtual-novel.net was the fact that virtual-novel.net was an advanced Mystic rank warrior.
