The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 22

Chapter 21 Class Gathering

Willow took Caspian with her. Of course, the driver was Caspian.

He drove Willow’s BMW. They were preparing to pick Zoey up first.

Zoey and Willow had been best friends for a long time. Zoey was a novelist on an online platform. She worked from home.

Her income was not bad. She earned several thousand dollars a month. With recommendations from the website, she could even earn up to tens of thousands a month.

Zoey got in the car. She found it somewhat unbelievable when she saw Caspian in the driver’s seat.

“Zoey, why do I sense that you’re a bit surprised?” Willow asked.

“Say, Willow. You’re really bringing Caspian to the gathering?” Zoey asked in puzzlement.

“That’s right. Does the gathering not allow us to bring family members?” Willow replied.

“There’s no rules on that. But doesn’t he not have a job? Wouldn’t people gossip about you if you brought him along?” Zoey inquired.

“It doesn’t matter. I don’t care about this kind of thing anymore,” Willow said.

“That’s true. Although Caspian hasn’t achieved much, he treats you very well! He has some good qualities as well!” Zoey commented.

“Oh? What good qualities does he have? Why do I not know about it?” Willow was curious about what her best friend thought of her husband.

“Look, he’s a handsome man with a strong and robust physique. His dark eyes also radiate an air of dominance!” Zoey chose her words carefully as she described Caspian.

As a novelist, she was quite careful about her choice of words.

She also had a penchant for imagining scenes of dominant CEOS and their delicate wives.

Caspian felt somewhat speechless after hearing this. He had hidden himself well, but Zoey seemed to have seen right through him.

Of course, he also had a good impression of Zoey. At least she didn’t look down on him like the others. Now that Zoey had pointed it out, Willow suddenly found Caspian to be quite handsome.

“Really? You don’t have a good eye for people; you’re just making things up.” Willow felt pleased with

However, she didn’t express it out loud.

“You can’t feel it because you’re with him every day. If he were my husband, I’d want the whole world to

know about him,” Zoey continued.

“Since you like him so much, why don’t I give him to you when we get a divorce?” Willow said indifferently.

“What? You just got married not long ago and you’re already thinking about divorce?” Zoey asked in

surprise.

“It’s not that I want a divorce. He was the one who bragged that he would hold an exceptionally grand

wedding. We have no choice but to divorce if he can’t keep his word,” Willow said.

“I remember it now. The whole city has heard of this matter,” Zoey said.

She turned around and asked Caspian, “Caspian, you weren’t spouting nonsense, were you? Do you have

what it takes to hold the grandest wedding?”

“I’m serious,” he replied.

“It has to be even grander than Alicia’s wedding. Say, were you the billionaire who booked the Jade

Dragon Grand Hotel?” Zoey asked in surprise.

Caspian was surprised. Zoey had hit the bullseye again!

Willow was equally taken aback. She didn’t even dare to think of such a ridiculous idea. Zoey’s thoughts

were really out of this world!

“You really have quite the imagination. Do you think I have the financial means for something like that?”

Caspian evaded the question. He avoided giving a direct answer.

“I can’t imagine it. But there are so many coincidences on the matter. You’re holding your wedding on the

30th, and the Jade Dragon Grand Hotel has also been booked for the same day.

“In order to surpass Alicia in the scale of the wedding, you can’t find a second venue in the entire city that

is grander than the Jade Dragon Grand Hotel.

“So, I don’t think it’s impossible,” Zoey analyzed it thoroughly.

Besides, everyone knew the relationship between Willow and Xenia.

Although Willow’s husband wasn’t as wealthy as Xenia’s boyfriend, Willow still came from a prominent family. Her background as a member of the Stewart family was enough to make many people envious.

No one could surpass Willow in terms of family background. For Xenia to compare herself to Willow was

simply humiliating herself.

Seeing that everyone did not pay much attention to her boyfriend, Xenia suddenly felt irritated. The taste

of a failed show-off was not pleasant.

She continued, “My boyfriend manages over a thousand people. Just let us know if any of you need help.”

Everyone else felt uneasy as her words fell.

Managing over a thousand people and owning a nightclub-could he be part of the mafia?

Several classmates sneaked a peak at Jonathan.

He was burly, wearing a thick gold chain and a large wristwatch. He even had a dragon tattoo on his arm!

No one expected Xenia’s boyfriend to be someone like this!

Nob*dy wanted to offend such a person. But why did Xenia bring someone like him to the gathering?

Some of them even wanted to stand up and leave. They regretted attending the gathering. Too afraid to

leave, they could only remain seated.

“Hello, Mr. Green. I’ve heard a lot about you from Xenia! You’re so accomplished at such an age!”

4/5

“That’s right, Xenia. Who knew your boyfriend had such an impressive background? We’ll be counting on you both if we need any help in the future!

Jonathan’s appearance changed the atmosphere of the ordinary gathering.

On the contrary, Xenia was enjoying the feeling of being in the spotlight. However, Jonathan’s gaze kept wandering toward Willow.

Willow felt uncomfortable under his gaze that was filled with ill intentions.
