Romeo nodded, "Hmm, that's a possibility! But no matter what, this guy is still okay for now. Let's just be cautious!"
Harlow stared at Lachlan with resentment and gritted teeth for a few seconds.
She really wanted to go over and humiliate Lachlan, but after hearing her father's words, she decided to hold back.
Her father was right; they had already suffered losses because of Lachlan.
In her heart, there was already some shadow cast over the situation.
"Hmph, let's not bother with him for now! Dad, let's go inside." Harlow snorted coldly.
"Wait a minute! Looks like there might be some drama to watch? Hehe..."
Just then Romeo looked at Lachlan with a smug smirk on his face.
Lachlan had already walked up to the entrance of the hall where Penelope and Maxwell were standing. They were both looking at him mockingly.
The security guards by the door were all looking at him warily and disdainfully. They had seen Lachlan get out of the taxi earlier in shabby clothes which made him stand out even more in contrast to everyone else who arrived in fancy cars or limousines.
Even though this medical exchange meeting wasn't very exclusive or high-end event by any means, it was still unheard of for anyone else besides them arrive by taxi.
This behavior seemed too shabby in other people's eyes...
"Stop right there!" The head security guard shouted at Lachlan as he blocked his way. "What are you doing here?"
Lachlan replied indifferently, "I'm here as an invited guest for the medical exchange meeting."
The security guards exchanged glances before their leader frowned and asked, "Invited? Do you have an invitation letter? Show it to me!"
Lachlan looked confused since he came directly upon Altha's invitation without receiving any formal letter from them beforehand.
He thought Altha would send someone over to pick him up so he could follow along without needing anything else.
Thinking about this, Lachlan turned his gaze towards Penelope, "Miss Pearce, can you explain things?"
Upon hearing this request from Lachlan, all eyes shifted towards Penelope.
"Miss Pearce, is he with your group?"
Penelope sneered sarcastically saying, "What group? I don't know who he is! Just do your job according to protocol."
Maxwell also taunted Lachlan saying, "Are you guys blind? Look at how poor-looking this guy is! He thinks he can hang around us?"
"Yeah! Look how pathetic he looks!"
"He shamelessly followed Penelope here!"
"Hey, follow? Isn't that a pervert? Hahaha..." The group of rich second-generation kids mocked and ridiculed Lachlan.
Lachlan frowned at Penelope and the others, his eyes finally showing a hint of anger.
He turned to the head security guard and said, "Altha personally called me to come here. I don't have an invitation letter, but she's responsible for bringing me in. Can I go in now?"
The security guards laughed, "Oh? Mr. Pearce personally invited you? Who are you?"
"I'm sorry, without an invitation letter you can't enter! Get out of here quickly or we won't be polite!"
Penelope looked at Lachlan with disdain and said mockingly, "Mr. Willis, I'm only responsible for picking you up. It's not my responsibility to bring you inside! Whether or not you can go in depends on whether or not you're qualified!" She sneered, "Now it seems like you're not qualified anymore! Hahaha..."
In Penelope's eyes, Lachlan was just a loser.
In this day and age he still took buses from the station? What else could he be but a loser?
