Zane had both his hands in his pant pockets as he scoffed at Jasper and spoke, “What? Haven’t seen a night view as beautiful as Harbor City’s before? That must be why you’re here, right? To learn more about the world.”
“Don’t say that.”
Mitch glared at Jasper and spoke wittily, “That’s a humiliation to cockroaches. People like him should be called a mangy dog.
“After all, it wasn’t easy climbing up a tree like the Law family. He looks so proud of himself. It’s like he can’t wait to wag his tail and please his master.”
Zane broke out into a laugh and agreed. “You’re right, Young Master Langdon. He really is just a mangy dog!”
Jasper could not help but feel like he was being stalked by Zane and Mitch.
Needless to say, the amount of hatred, new and old, between them had gotten beyond the point of mitigation.
“Should’ve checked my horoscope today before I left the house.” Jasper shook his head.
“Shouldn’t we be the ones saying this?”
Zane scoffed. “What misfortune to see a dog like you the moment I leave my house.”
“You’ve got to be understanding too. After all, Mainland is hardly as urbanized as Harbor City. At least he’ll have something to gloat to his friends back in Mainland if he has walked around Victoria Harbor.”
Mitch mocked plainly.
With that, Mitch then turned to Anna. “How could you come out for a walk with someone like this, Anna? What about your dignity if this news gets spread?”
Anna had long felt annoyed when it came to Mitch, so she replied to his words coldly, “Who are you to control who I take walks with? And watch your attitude, the two of you. You disgust me.”
