Wesley appeared even more puzzled when he heard that. "Okay, fine. I won't piss you off, okay?" He returned the scarf to Andrew. "What the hell? I thought we were friends. Why did he have such a sudden change of attitude?" he mumbled, leaving the cafe.
Then, Reene, who had been quiet the whole time, caught up with the situation. "Young Master Andrew? Are you Andrew Kean?"
Previously, they were supposed to have a blind date at the Ramada Hotel, but Andrew stood her up in order to look for Boris, so this was their first meeting.
"Yeah…" Andrew's face was flushed crimson. Unfortunately, due to his sorry state, one couldn't be certain whether it was from the beating or from embarrassment.
Next to him, Reene was dressed in a tailored suit. Mature and elegant, she looked absolutely like a successful career woman. In contrast, Andrew's face was swollen and red with a scarf wrapped around it, which made him look really awful in comparison.
Back then, when Stanley set up the blind date for him, he looked down on Reene because he thought that it was degrading to his status as a rich young master to go on a blind date with an orphan. Never did it occur to him that their first meeting would be looking like this. As he stood in front of Reene, he felt ashamed of himself for the first time in his life.
"President Wynn. Dr. Nicholson… I-I gotta go. See you next time," he mumbled, hanging his head and taking off. He couldn't stay for even a second longer. He knew that if he continued to linger, he would genuinely start considering squeezing himself into a hole or punting himself to the sun.
As Reene stared at Andrew's back as he fled in panic, she wondered out loud, "Is that the legendary Young Master Andrew? Didn't he return from Sweoya as an intellectual? Why is he in such a state?"
