Life at the Top

Steve did not expect to meet Wendy, who he had been dreaming of for nearly ten years, at Brac County.

He had a crush on Wendy since their high school days. Steve was considered the most passionate one among the group of pursuers courting Wendy back then.

However after so many years and even up till graduation, Wendy had not spoken more than three sentences to him, let alone became closer to him.

Later after graduating, Steve’s family business that was involved in building materials shifted over to Brac County. As such, he gradually let go of his feelings for her.

He did not expect to be able to meet Wendy once again.

Even though a few years had already passed, Steve was still able to recognize Wendy with just a glance.

In the meantime, he spotted Jasper beside her.

“Jasper?”

Steve’s tone was laced with some doubt, but then he let out a smile. “What the f*ck? A poor guy like you also has what it takes to show up in a five-star hotel?”

It was plain obvious that Steve thought Jasper was pestering Wendy, and in light of them being old classmates, he made Wendy treat him to a meal at this hotel.

‘Otherwise, this poor guy wouldn’t be able to come to such a high-end place in his lifetime.’

The thought of it made Steve glance at Jasper with much disdain.

“Steve, you guys know each other?” Mark asked coldly.

“Yes,” said Steve with a chuckle, “Wendy was a goddess in my high school. How can I not know her? As for Jasper, he’s also our schoolmate, but he’s just a genuine poor guy.

“He could wear the same set of school uniform for one whole year, and I never saw him change to another set of clothing. Even if the clothes had a hole in them, he still continued to wear them. Every day, he would eat buns and pickles. Some people found him pitiful and would offer him food, and he would be happier than a dog.”
