The First Heir

Just then, the man in the white shirt, Finn suddenly pulled a large bouquet of red roses out of his trunk. In front of everyone else, he fell onto one knee before Melody, saying passionately, “Mel, I really like you. Will you be my girlfriend?”

The crowd went wild. Melody and her friends were not the only ones there, after all. This was a professional track, and there were at least a hundred people here, all of whom had rich parents.

“Say yes, say yes!”

Finn had clearly coordinated the chanting in advance.

Frederick and the others were especially fired up. In comparison, Philip had long since been left by the wayside.

That was perfectly fine by him, of course. He just wanted these dang kids to get their party over with and send him home.

Once he got back, he had to complain to Theo about the latter’s daughter. She needed a good re-education.

However, things did not turn out as planned.

Melody gave Finn a cold look and rejected him outright. “Sorry, Finn. I know you like me, but I don’t like you. Besides, I already have a boyfriend.”

With that, she turned and left. She pretended to take a call and beckoned Philip to get into the car. “Come on, let’s go.”

Philip was stunned speechless. Seriously, that was it?

So why the f*ck was he dragged over here?

To make the numbers?

That made no sense.
