Just when they went out of the house together, Edith got a call from Diana.
"Edith, we are at the gate of TC International Hotel right now. Come on."
"Okay, I will be there soon." After Edith hung up the phone, she hurriedly hailed a taxi.
TC International Hotel was a five-star hotel in J City which was definitely a high-end consumer occasion in J City.
If people wanted to eat here, they had not only to be the rich, but also had to have status.
This hotel was a place for upper class people to having parties. Ordinary people generally didn’t consider to hold parties here at all.
Hunter Powell chose this place to hold a class reunion. One reason was to show his status. The other reason was that TY Group was a major shareholder of TC International Hotel.
As the manager of a branch of TY Group, it was relatively easy for Hunter to make a reservation at TC International Hotel than others.
But even so, in order to get a private room, he took painstaking efforts.
Casey had heard Charles Clinton talk about the TC International Hotel before. The reason why he became a shareholder of this hotel was naturally to expand his connections. Anyone who came to eat here would generally have considerable connections value. Charles was proficient at doing business, so he naturally knew the importance of connections.
Half an hour later, Casey and Edith arrived at TC International Hotel. After they got out of the car, they saw a group of people standing in the distance.
Diana and Hunter immediately came over to greet Edith. Diana saw Casey also come here. She immediately muttered, "How shameless he is! How dare he come to Edith's class reunion. Doesn't he know it's awkward?"
Hunter looked gloomy after seeing Casey. He still remembered what happened at Owen’s house that day. If Casey said in front of so many classmates that he had kidney deficiency, he would probably punch Casey.
"Hmph, it’s good that you also come here today. Let you see how rich I am today, so that you can know who you are, and get away from Edith." Hunter said to himself.
"Since you’re here, let’s eat together. I guess he has never eaten in such a place." Hunter said with a smile.
The classmates of Edith in the distance saw Edith bringing Casey over. They all started whispering.
"Is that Edith's husband? I heard that he is called Casey. He is a famous good-for-nothing in J City. Why did Edith bring him here?"
"That's him? He doesn’t deserve Edith at all. What a pity!"
"I heard that Edith had no way, so she has to marry him. Maybe Edith brings him here is just to make him understand that he doesn’t deserve her and let him get out of her way."
"Yeah. Have you heard that Hunter still likes Edith? This class reunion is held for Edith. Compared with Hunter, Casey is nothing."
......
After Hunter walked over with them, those classmates also stopped talking immediately, but they looked at Casey with contempt.
"Everyone is here, let's go in." Hunter said.
A group of people followed Hunter towards TC International Hotel, all looking around curiously.
They couldn’t afford a meal in such a hotel themselves. Thanks to Hunter, this time they could be able to come here for a meal.
"Hunter is really amazing. He can bring us to eat here. I never dreamed of being able to eat here."
