The Man’s Decree

As Kai stared at the woman whose face was caked with makeup, a glimmer of repugnance showed on his face.

The woman was Juliette Jones, and she was his former classmate. She had even pursued him back when they were still studying. At that time, his father had a proper job that was considered secure, so there was no shortage of girls trying to woo him.

However, he didn’t like her and got together with Sandy instead. He felt that the latter was far better compared to the materialistic Juliette, both in terms of looks and personality.

But from the look of things now, both of them are just the same kind of people! I made the wrong call!

“Why aren’t you saying anything when I’m your former classmate? Have you gone mute? You were pretty impressive back during our university days, even holding the post of president of the student council. What do you think the dean and lecturers would say if they were to learn that a student who was excellent in character and grades became an ex-convict after graduating?” the young man beside Juliette chimed in.

The young man was Warrick Fox, and he used to be Kai’s roommate. They used to be very close, but he also had a crush on Sandy. When he saw Kai dating Sandy, he held a grudge against the man. He tried to break them apart multiple times, but alas, to no avail.

They severed ties after that, neither contacting the other after graduating from university.

Well, the fact that they’re both here at the same time probably means that Sandy invited them. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have the right to attend the wedding.

Kai merely swept a glance over them before dipping his head and sipping at his water quietly. He wasn’t in the mood to bother with them.

When Juliette and Warrick saw him lowering his head, they grew increasingly smug, mistakenly assuming that he was afraid of them.

“Kai, I’m sure you haven’t found a job when you’ve only just gotten out of prison. Do you want me to recommend you for the job of cleaning toilets? While it’s somewhat dirty and tiring, you can at least make a living. Your father has lost his job now, so it’s of no use to pin your hopes on him.”
