Chapter 381 I Live Off My Wife
Whitney also knew that Alex became the Jenning family’s live–in son–in–law after he graduated. She asked deliberately to embarrass him and let Dylan know his true identity.
“What? Don’t spout nonsense, Landon. Not only is Alex handsome, but he is also the top student at college! How could he cast his pride aside and live off a woman?” exclaimed Whitney as she feigned surprise.
Smirking, Landon said, “Without good looks, how can anyone become a boy toy in this era?”
With a look of revelation, Whitney glanced at Alex and asked with a smile, “Alex, are you one?”
The phrase ‘boy toy‘ was usually a derogatory term used to insult men who had no backbone.
Right now, that was what Whitney meant.
Glancing at his ex–classmates, Landon and Whitney, Alex laughed and replied, “Yeah, I’ve been living off a woman after graduation. On the other hand, both of you seem to succeed in life.”
His casual admission perplexed Landon and Whitney.
Initially, they wanted to humiliate Alex, However, their attacks failed to provoke him.
Rose looked at Alex curiously. Although he had been embarrassed, he was still so calm and composed. For some reason, she suddenly felt that her cousin’s husband was terrifying.
The most impressive people endure embarrassment without uttering a word.
However, Alex still smiles after being humiliated in public.
Can anyone else deal with this better than him?
No!
Seeing Landon and Whitney trying to embarrass Alex, Dylan felt awkward.
He was even afraid that Alex would be unhappy.
Actually, he did not invite the couple. However, as they met coincidentally, he brought them with him.
Never did he imagine they would try to stir up trouble. This upset him.
“Landon’s doing well. I heard that he’s promoted to the senior management level at a listed company. He probably earns seventy or eighty thousand a year, right?” said Dylan with a laugh.
Seventy or eighty thousand a year?
Shocked, Rose stole a few glances at Landon.
I can’t tell at all! This guy looks like a pervert, but he actually has such a high income.
However, Landon sighed and said, “Don’t mention it. The company wanted to be listed a while ago, but it was a huge blunder. The boss kept messing things up, ruining my bright future. I’m planning to quit and work for Warren instead.”

Chapter 381 I Live Off My Wife
“Warren?”
Stunned, Dylan asked, “Where’s Warren working at now?”
Warren was their college classmate.
“Warren is a manager at Midas jewelry store, the best–performing subsidiary of the Jones family’s corporation. I heard that he’s going to become a shareholder,” said Landon.
“Wow, then he’s doing well!” exclaimed Dylan.

Naturally, Warren could not even compare to Alex. After all, the latter was the hidden boss of the Four Seas Corporation.
