Life at The Top novel Chapter 236

Steve did not expect to meet Wendy, who he had been dreaming of for nearly ten years, at Brac County.

He had a crush on Wendy since their high school days. Steve was considered the most passionate one among the group of pursuers courting Wendy back then.

However after so many years and even up till graduation, Wendy had not spoken more than three sentences to him, let alone became closer to him.

Later after graduating, Steve’s family business that was involved in building materials shifted over to Brac County. As such, he gradually let go of his feelings for her.

He did not expect to be able to meet Wendy once again.

Even though a few years had already passed, Steve was still able to recognize Wendy with just a glance.

In the meantime, he spotted Jasper beside her.

“Jasper?”

Steve’s tone was laced with some doubt, but then he let out a smile. “What the f*ck? A poor guy like you also has what it takes to show up in a five-star hotel?”

It was plain obvious that Steve thought Jasper was pestering Wendy, and in light of them being old classmates, he made Wendy treat him to a meal at this hotel.

‘Otherwise, this poor guy wouldn’t be able to come to such a high-end place in his lifetime.’

The thought of it made Steve glance at Jasper with much disdain.

“Steve, you guys know each other?” Mark asked coldly.

“Yes,” said Steve with a chuckle, “Wendy was a goddess in my high school. How can I not know her? As for Jasper, he’s also our schoolmate, but he’s just a genuine poor guy.

“He could wear the same set of school uniform for one whole year, and I never saw him change to another set of clothing. Even if the clothes had a hole in them, he still continued to wear them. Every day, he would eat buns and pickles. Some people found him pitiful and would offer him food, and he would be happier than a dog.”

Mark was delighted when he heard it.

“What the f*ck, a poor guy is putting on an act against me?”

Mark was slightly exasperated as he was terrified of a poor guy just earlier.

The thought of it made Mark so mad that he wanted to just tear off Jasper’s skin.

“Steve, please mind your language,” Wendy said coldly. Currently, what irritated Wendy was other people teasing Jasper.

Steve witnessed Wendy shielding Jasper, and all of a sudden, it made him disgruntled.

“I said nothing wrong. Isn’t he the famous poor brat in the entire school?”

“Wendy, I know you’re very kind, but you have to pay more attention. Don’t get used by these useless beings because of this matter.”

Steve said in a mystifying manner and then said to Jasper with a smile, “As a man, I really f*cking look down on you!

“However, as your old schoolmate, I’ll just give you a piece of advice. Wendy is already showing you some dignity by treating you to a meal. Or else, a poor guy like you won’t be able to come to a five-star hotel like this for the rest of your life.

“You’d better leave this instant after gaining the benefits. Don’t be such a drag and insist on staying here.”

“What a splendid speech.” Mark stared at Jasper with a dark gaze. He then said with a sinister smile, “Hey brat, you’re quite good at putting on an act. I nearly got scared by you. Now, how do you wish to die? Huh?”

Steve immediately understood when he saw the scene.

‘It must be Jasper, this fool, who came to a five-star hotel and went overboard. He ended up offending Mark!’
