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.
“Oh, it’s Levi, the influential figure back in the day.” A well-dressed man broke the awkward silence. He was the class monitor, Jed Barrett.
Even though he was the class monitor, Levi had always outshone him in the past. So Jed spent his younger days chasing behind Levi, trying to match up with Levi’s accomplishments.
Jed successfully entered one of the top universities and is currently working in a multinational corporation after graduation. He was rumored to be earning a few million a year as well.
Jed’s car was a pricey Range Rover. He was one of the high achievers in the class.
Levi greeted him with a smile.
“We thought you wouldn’t come, Levi.” A few other classmates asked shockingly.
Jed rolled his eyes at the person who asked the question. “Levi is not a narrow-minded person. He’s not someone to be bothered by his current situation.”
