At one banquet, he once again overheard others discussing him unintentionally.
"I really don't get why Harley fell for a minor model! Even dating them, so what if they've acted in a few movies and TV shows?"
"I heard that he was originally one of those bottom-rung types, you know, the kind who would seize any small chance and desperately climb their way up. He finally snagged a big fish like Harley, must have used every trick in the book to do it," someone added.
"Just think about it, Harley's ex-fiancé was Lornell, from the Crypt families. Now, that's a family that truly matches the stature of the Hart family."
"Maybe Harley is just fooling around. I mean, think about it, a prestigious family like the Hart family, there's no way they'd let their daughter marry a minor model!"
"Maybe the little model will become a movie star someday?" someone said, but the tone was clearly mocking.
"Ha ha, the Movie King..." The others burst into laughter.
For those born into powerful and prestigious families, even if an ordinary person struggles and becomes a movie star, it's nothing special to them; they hardly see it as an achievement.
Calvert's hand hanging by his side unconsciously clenched tight.
He was standing in the corner, so those people chatting didn't notice him.
This kind of conversation was no big deal for him.
After all, he's heard worse things before.
So, just pretend you didn't hear anything and quietly walk away.
He said to himself in his heart.
