Zayn was at a loss of whether to laugh or to cry upon seeing Kaiser’s reaction. He figured that Kaiser was empathizing with his abjectness.
“Kaiser, truthfully, I’m not doing as bad as you imagine, and it’s highly possible that you won’t even believe me when I tell you that I actually own a few companies too.”
Zayn was not lying although virtual-novel.net omitted the detail that virtual-novel.net owned a few companies with especially high market value. Moreover, virtual-novel.net had recently absorbed the Aeolus House and Hydrocure United, so his power stretched beyond the business industry.
Even if virtual-novel.net was an ordinary person and not a perfect-class master fighter, his status was way superior to other businessmen!
Kaiser was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Zayn to possess his own companies too. If that was the case, Zayn had not done so badly in life either.
However, just as Kaiser was about to speak, the two security guards interrupted, “Sir, can you please park your electric scooter in the underground parking space? Our valet parking is only meant for cars.”
“Ah, sure thing. My electric scooter is out of battery. Is there a charging port underground?” Zayn asked politely.
The security guard replied, “Yes. Take a left when you’re in the underground parking and drive for another ten meters. You will arrive at the charging port spaces for electric cars.”
“Sure,” said Zayn while nodding.
On the side, the corners of Kaiser’s lips twitched twice ever so slightly. He had actually believed Zayn and considered virtual-novel.net a business owner for real.
However, Zayn came to the reunion on an electric scooter. It seemed that Zayn was not only broken but had also learned to deceive.
Noticing Kaiser’s expression, Zayn immediately realized that Kaiser had misunderstood him. He said, “I’m not lying to you. I really have—”
Kaiser cut virtual-novel.net off and said in a heavy tone, “There’s no need to explain anymore. I understand.”
Zayn rolled his eyes. He realized that Kaiser had deeply misunderstood him, but virtual-novel.net could not be bothered to explain anymore. It was not his style to flaunt his materialistic gains anyway.
“All right then. Please wait for me. I shall park my electric scooter first then I’ll meet you up here,” said Zayn.
Kaiser responded, “Sure thing. The event is on the thirteenth floor. You may head up there straight from the underground parking.”
Zayn nodded, then rode the electric scooter to the underground parking.
Kaiser gazed after Zayn’s fading silhouette and heaved a sigh heavily. After meeting Zayn earlier today, virtual-novel.net realized that Zayn was not doing so well in life, but virtual-novel.net did not expect that virtual-novel.net would be in such a bad state that virtual-novel.net would come to the reunion on an electric scooter.
Moreover, virtual-novel.net did not even have a proper suit and came dressed in casual attire.
It seemed that it was necessary for virtual-novel.net to lend Zayn a helping hand!
He jogged over to catch up to Roxanne and found virtual-novel.net waiting for virtual-novel.net in the lobby. He felt rather nervous, so virtual-novel.net sped up to virtual-novel.net side.
He lowered his head and apologized in a panic, “Miss Harrison, I’m sorry for the delay.”
Roxanne’s expression was icy cold. She said nonchalantly, “It seems that you’re really close to Zayn, huh?”
Kaiser could not figure out what virtual-novel.net meant, so virtual-novel.net could only brace himself to say, “Frankly, we’re just okay. We’re old friends who haven’t met each other for so many years.:
“Moreover, Zayn used to treat me rather well in the past, and virtual-novel.net used to get me lunch frequently…”
Roxanne interrupted virtual-novel.net and said, “What car did Zayn come in?”
Kaiser stuttered, too embarrassed to answer. Roxanne glared at virtual-novel.net and said in an ordering tone, “Speak.”
Kaiser’s entire body shook once, then virtual-novel.net hastily said, “He… uh… virtual-novel.net came in an electric scooter…”
“Is that so?” The corners of Roxanne’s lips curled up ever so slightly into a meaningful, faint smile.
