Peter subtly admired the glamorous girls. 'They're so beautiful, sexy and fashionable, ' he thought.
"Hey, Audrey, who is he? Aren't you going to introduce the guy to us?" A woman in a black summer top and tight skirt walked over smiling
As she looked at Peter. '180 cm tall, not bad. But… where did he get those clothes?' Peter watched her as she was clearly sizing him up.
Audrey was one of the most beautiful and sophisticated girls in the university. Several boys wanted to date her but all of them failed to catch her eye. It was a shock to Ada Wang that someone like Peter, who didn't even look successful, was the one clutching Audrey against his chest.
"Hey, Ada. This is Peter, my boyfriend, " Audrey said.
Ada Wang was Audrey's roommate, and the boys and girls at the party were indeed her classmates. Audrey seldom attended such parties, but today, Ada Wang didn't take No for an answer.
Audrey preferred to lay low in her university, but her beauty inevitably turned so many heads. Not a lot of people knew about her prominent family background except several governors of the school.
Audrey came from a very powerful family. With her father being the city mayor, she was well-versed with politics and was skilled in equipped with excellent interpersonal skills. When she was told to go to Alfred Club that night, she knew that it was the agenda of one person: Jared Wang.
Jared Wang was known to come from a likewise rich and powerful family. He was extravagant in showing off his wealth, and he wanted Audrey really badly.
The whole time, Audrey was trying to devise a way to avoid Jared Wang at the party. When she saw Peter, the idea to have him pretend to be her boyfriend immediately dawned on her.
Although she hated Peter very much, she had to admit that he was a man of many abilities. He not only had medical prowess, but he was also a very skilled fighter. Despite being attacked by six guys that night, Peter ended up in the police station instead of the hospital.
With him, Audrey felt safe.
Hearing that Peter was Audrey's boyfriend, her classmates were stunned. They couldn't believe it. It felt unfair. Clearly, Audrey deserved someone better. If Audrey were a beautiful flower, Peter was a foul piece of dog poo. 'This is going to be interesting, ' they thought.
"Boyfriend?" Ada Wang repeated, stunned. She shuffled awkwardly before managing to force a smile. "Nice to meet you. I'm Ada Wang, Audrey's roommate, " she said extending a hand.
"Nice to meet you too, " Peter replied, shaking her hand. Right now, he was Audrey's boyfriend so he had to act appropriately.
Ada Wang was a little surprised. She expected Peter to be savage and unrefined. He looked uneducated, after all. Surely he would also be brash. Instead, he was acting like a polite, polished gentleman. He wasn't so bad, after all.
As they were talking, a dashing Maserati stopped at the driveway, turning the heads of the people at the party.
The door opened and a gentleman in his Versace and Rolex ensemble stepped out of the vehicle.
The people started to flock excitedly towards him when they realized who it was.
"It's Jared Wang!"
"Hey man, cool car! When did you buy it?"
"Wow, Jared. You look so handsome!"
Jared Wang basked at their compliments. He greeted his classmates and looked around trying to spot Audrey. His eyes lit up when he caught sight of her! Suddenly his eyes went to the guy she was with and his mood changed.
Everyone knew he hosted this party for Audrey. He spent so much time and money planning this just to get her here.
He carefully selected his clothes and made sure he'd arrive in style with his Maserati. More importantly, he booked the finest club in the city for her!
'How could she have brought a guy here? He looks poor and terrible!'
What pissed him off more was how the guy held Audrey tightly at her waist, and Audrey didn't look a tiny bit annoyed! In fact, they seemed to be having a great time! They were very happy and intimate. They were definitely not just friends.
