The Protector

The high school reunion was hosted at the Royal Hotel. Although the place was not as extravagant as the revolving restaurant, a table reservation cost at least ten to twenty thousand. So the Royal Hotel was considered a lavish diner.

For someone receiving an average amount of salary, a meal there would cost three to four months of their monthly earnings. Not everyone in their class was so lucky in life. Some were doing good, while some were barely holding their life together.

A few men clad in suits were welcoming newcomers near the hotel entrance.

They crowded around Chloe’s Porsche Panamera upon her arrival.

“Oh? Isn’t this the prettiest girl in our class? I heard you’re earning a few million a year. I guess that’s true since you’re driving a Porsche!” A few male classmates began to bootlick.

Chloe flashed a shy smile upon hearing the compliments.

But the smile on everyone’s faces froze when they saw Levi getting out of the passenger’s seat.

They did not expect Levi to attend the reunion, not to mention coming to the venue alongside Chloe.
