"Hahaha…"
Everyone burst into laughter as Dakota said that.
Those three women looked contemptuously at Leo, while the men beside them turned up their noses at him.
Since Leo was modestly dressed, and there was no expensive watch on his wrist, he was naturally believed to be Marie’s chauffeur.
Leo himself was stunned to hear that too.
They had just arrived, but how come he became the target for satire again?
Marie was surprised to see their reaction, and then got a little annoyed. But since they had used to be her classmates, she could only contain herself and force herself to finish the sentence. "He’s my boyfriend."
However, Dakota and the other two women laughed even harder.
"Well well, Marie, we know he’s your boyfriend, but you don’t have to tell us."
"Exactly, Marie. We feel sorry for you. You were the prettiest girl in high school. It didn’t occur to us that you would end up being with such a man after graduation."
"Marie, listen to me. I’ll fix you up with another man in a while. You’re too good for him."
Marie was stupefied to hear them, but soon, her face clouded over with anger.
"Shut up!"
Dakota and the other two women stopped laughing immediately as Marie roared, staring at her in surprise.
"He’s my boyfriend. If you insult him again, don’t blame me for being too hard on you!"
Marie growled. She got angry for real.
Serena also snapped, "Stop judging people by their appearances! You guys are embarrassing!"
At first, Marie thought they had mistaken Leo for her chauffeur, so she explained to them specially, but now she realized they did it on purpose.
They humiliated Leo by mistaking him for Marie’s chauffeur intentionally when they knew he was her boyfriend!
Dakota didn’t expect Marie to react all that much. She was stunned for a moment before giving a smile. "Marie, we haven’t met for years. It’s just a joke. Relax!"
"Exactly, Marie. Don’t be mad. Since he’s your boyfriend, he can come in with us."
The group of people came into one of the private boxes in Spaerrace.
The mood became peaceful again, but there was still a sense of embarrassment in the air because of Leo.
Leo gave a careless smile and comforted Marie. "Marie, I’fine."
Leo, the man who had gone through so much, had already seen the nature of this class reunion.
In fact, the so-called "class reunion" was nothing but a platform for those old "classmates" to compete with and throw shade at each other. They competed with each other on everything, income, clothes, house, car, or even the woman or man they took with them.
"You’re fine? Didn’t you hear what they said about you?" Marie said in a huff, biting her lip.
Actually, Marie wasn’t afraid of being embarrassed in front of Leo, but of the fact that he would have a prejudice against her and thus the two would grow apart.
However, Marie wasn’t going to let it go like this.
Led by a hostess, the group of people walked into a luxurious private box.
One could tell that the one who sponsored this reunion was rich because the minimum charge for the box was over one hundred thousand.
The door of the box was open, and a decently dressed man who was in his late 20s was sitting in it.
"You’ve come!" The man gave an easy smile at the sight of his old classmates.
"Edwin Gill?" Dakota, Billie, Abigail and the others were astonished to see this young man. "Why are you here?"
Edwin was the big man in school. Many girls had chased him, and all the girls present had had a secret crush on him.
Suddenly, Dakota exclaimed, "I got it! Edwin is the one who sponsors this class reunion, right?"
Everyone echoed Dakota’s words after hearing her.
"It should be him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been sitting here."
"Edwin is amazing! He was big in school, but he’s still doing pretty good after graduation."
