Chapter 109 Gathering.
Dylan’s restaurant was located in one of the newer developmental districts of Nebula City.
It was a short distance away from the main part of the city; it had more empty spaces and fewer people.
However, Alex knew that once the area became a little more developed, there would be a substantial crowd flow.
Although it might not seem like a good idea to open up a restaurant here now, business would surely bet booming in the future.
Located beside a broad road, Delicious Delights was quite a big restaurant with a second floor.
When Alex neared the entrance of the restaurant, he saw a whole row of cars parked in front. Several people were standing beside a golden BMW, all smoking as they chatted away.
They were all his university classmates but none that he was really close to.
The leader of the group was Leo Hale, the heir to the Hale family. He was one of the more well–known rich kids in their class and had been interested in Heather before. Too bad for him, she had had absolutely no interest in him.
-Presently, he was leaning against the BMW as his classmates oohed and ahhed at his new car. The males
sighed in admiration and envy. “Leo, you really are a winner in life. We’ve only just graduated a few years, yet already you’re driving a BMW! That’s a 5 Series exclusive, isn’t it? The 540?”
Leo laughed and replied arrogantly, “Yeah! It costs around 800 thousand, no biggie!”
“F***ing hell! The 540? That’s the most expensive imported 5 Series!”
“Damn! I can’t even manage to scrounge up enough to pay for the down payment of a BMW 1 Series! Looks like we’re leagues apart, Leo!”
“Leo, the engine should be pretty powerful, right?”
Smiling, Leo answered in a casual tone, “It’s okay. I guess you can say it’s more powerful than most car engines. I have yet to meet its match on the roads.”
“Damn, that’s so sweet! If only I could afford a BMW. My girlfriend keeps bemoaning the fact that I can’t buy a car. You know how annoying that is?”
At that moment, one of the group spotted the arrival of the new car and yelled in shock, “Holy crap! Is the driver of that Audi R8 our classmate too?”
“The f***? Isn’t that Alex Jefferson, the useless man who’s living off of his wife? How’s it possible he’s driving such a luxurious car?”
“Did the Jennings family suddenly get rich? Since when were they able to drive a car that costs more than 2 million?”
“I’m pretty sure Heather bought it, and he’s just borrowing it.”
Jealousy and admiration shone in their eyes even as their words showed their disdain of Alex being a kept
man.
At that moment, all of them were practically green with envy.
