"The two of them are really hateful." Edith said angrily.
Casey said with a smile, "So they got the punishment they deserved. At least, they won't bother us again until we get off the boat."
Edith nodded and stopped thinking about Rowan's affairs. This time, they came out to relax. Such a good trip shouldn't be ruined by such things.
The two of them walked towards the audience area of the fashion show. After giving the ferry tickets to the person over there, someone took them to the front sofa.
After the two of them sat down, the person in charge of the fashion show quickly announced that the show was about to begin, letting everyone go back to their seats as soon as possible.
Those people looked enviously at Casey and Edith, who were sitting at the front. The reason why today’s show was postponed was because the two of them had not yet come. At this moment, they all felt the power of money.
"When can I enjoy this kind of treatment in my life? Tusk-tusk, everyone is turning around me. It feels so cool."
"You better wake up. Those people who can afford the top-floor ferry tickets has hundreds of millions assets. We can come to the eighth floor, which is already very good."
After Casey and Edith sat down for a while, Brooklyn also walked to the side of the two and sat down on the other sofa.
"What a coincidence! You guys are also going to watch the fashion show." Brooklyn asked with a smile.
Casey and Edith both turned their heads to look at Brooklyn. They just nodded politely to him, without saying anything.
Brooklyn was thinking about what Rowan said just now, with a meaningful smile on his face. Then he asked tentatively, "Those two rude people dare to say that they are your relatives. I guess they want to take advantage of you guys. You guys will definitely not have such relatives."
Edith glanced at Brooklyn and said, "The two of them are indeed my distant relatives. They’re just way out of the line a little."
"Oh? Since he is your distant relative, why did he still say that kind of slanderous words? I heard them say that Casey is a wimp, that you are from a small place and that you two can't afford the ferry tickets here. Your relatives are distorting the facts. How could the people who can buy the top-floor ferry tickets be like what they said?" Brooklyn continued.
Casey knew that Brooklyn wanted to judge whether Rowan said was true or false from Edith. Casey felt it a little boring, so he said, "What they said is not wrong, but it's all the past. The show is about to start. Let's watch the show."
Brooklyn just nodded with a smile. He was already smug. It seemed that these two people were not rich. Because they won the lottery or got the chance to make a fortune suddenly, they had the money to buy the ferry tickets of the top floor.
If it was in the case, it would be easy for him to steal Edith from Casey.
No matter what, Casey's assets could not be as much as his 500 million worth.
Besides, he didn't expect Casey to be a wimp in the eyes of his relatives, which made Brooklyn even more convinced that Casey was a toy boy.
The clothes of the fashion show on The Pearl were so expensive. Even the cheapest one was worth of millions, just because of the reputation of the designer and the vanity of the rich.
Ferry tickets were just one of the means for The Pearl to make money, and the luxury goods on the cruise could still bring them a lot of money.
Brooklyn only needed to buy Edith one, then Edith would be able to understand the gap between Casey and him.
