"Charlotte, you're going too far!"
Upon hearing that, Benjamin got to his feet immediately.
Liam followed suit. "No worries, Will. We'll leave with you."
Ever since entering university, this was the first thaving someone standing up for me. | was really touched.
However, | was aware that Benjamin and Liam surely wished to stay back for that meal. The spread on the table
was scrumptious indeed, and they might not even get to eat something like this at least once a year.
Thus, | went up to them and sat them back down on their seats. "Sit down, both of you. It's no big deal. | happen
to be done eating, so I'll just go out for a walk. Just stay and eat, both of you."
As | said that, | walked right to the door.
Charlotte's voice then cfrom behind me. "William, why are you leaving? You can just sit on the couch and
eat.
"There are so many dishes here, so you can just take whatever you want and eat over there. Why are you
sulking?"
"I know, right? He should be thankful that he could even be here. Why is he showing an attitude?"
"People are finally taking snotice of him. Shouldn't he at least put on an act?"

| continued walking and left the private room.
Helping Charlotte out was because | felt that she was too pitiful to have been bullied like that. But, considering
the way she was acting now, | would never lend her a helping hand again.
After leaving the hotel, | rubbed my hand on my stomach. | was only half-full. Just as | was contemplating where
to go to fill the rest of my stomach, my dad called. "Will, are you free tonight? The president of the Business
Association heard that you're in Welsington City, and said that he wanted to see you.
"He's just lent you a hand, so how about you show srespect by coming over?"
"Sure."
By chance, | would get to eat when | was there, so | agreed without any hesitation.
"Where are you at the moment? He's waiting to pick you up."
"Dad, just tell him that it's fine. There are cabs lined up by the road. | will just flag one down and head over."
My father pondered over my reply briefly. "Alright, then. I'll share your contact number with him. By the way,
aren't you still starting up your business, Will? It wouldn't be a bad idea to get to know him.
"His nis Gordon Zimmer. You can just address him as Mr. Zimmer."
"Got it!"
Not long after hanging up, Gordon called.
He sounded courteous towardover the phone. Even | felt bad about that.
After all, it was my father who was the powerful one. | was just a regular university student.
The hotel of Gordon's choice was called Welsington Hotel, one of the top three hotels in Welsington City.
They were highly ranked not only because of their high-class ingredients and skilled chefs. Most importantly, it
was because they provided excellent privacy for their patrons.
Whenever big shots dined with them or organized get-togethers, they wouldn't be photographed by outsiders.
The elevator doors opened. Just as | was about to step into the elevator, | heard the sound of urgently clacking
heels coming from behind me.
In the next moment, someone bumped right into me, makingstumble. My body almost slammed into the
wall.
Nevertheless, the person who bumped intodidn't have any intention of apologizing. They entered the
elevator and started slamming on the button to close the doors.
They were being too nonchalant about that, weren't they?
| picked up my pace and stepped into the elevator. My eyes lit up instantly when I looked at that person.
| hadn't expected her to be such a beauty!
She was different from the pure and innocent belles at school. At one glance, | could tell that she was in her mid-

She had a blazer over her. Underneath that blazer was a white singlet and a fitting pencil skirt around her
curvaceous figure, giving her the air of a sexy and beautiful professional working woman.
I had always felt like | wasn't considered a lustful person. But, | would have to admit that all my feelings of
displeasure toward her vanished the moment | saw her figure and that stunning face of hers.
That being said, not flying into a rage was one thing, but | still had to reason with her.
"Miss, you bumped intoearlier."
It was only after | said that that she turned and looked at me.
She lifted the corners of her lips slightly and asked, "You're a university student, aren't you? Are you here to
interview for a part-tjob?"
Great, just great.
Not only did she not apologize after bumping into me, she was looking down on
me.
| emphasized, "I am here to dine at this place."
A sarcastic look cacross her eyes, as if she had seen through me. "Young man, do your own research online
before you start bragging. You're here to dine at this place? Do you know what this place is?"
| harrumphed coldly. "I don't, but looking at the way you're dressed, I'm guessing that this is a club?"
