The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 91

None of them were able to utter a single word.

Just a moment ago, they were all boasting about how they had a net worth of either a hundred and fifty thousand dollars or even seventy thousand dollars. But now, both Mario and Dickson had been plunged into bankruptcy.

Most importantly, Cassey’s wedding had to be canceled since the Pykes could not afford to pay the hotel for their wedding-

The entire place fell into an awkward silence as every single one of Samantha’s former classmates’ faces turned red. This was especially true for Cassey, who could only look at Adrian like a fool.

Amidst their silence, Adrian slowly sat on the sofa and said, “Does anyone else have a net worth of a hundred and fifty thousand dollars? Hmm?”

Everyone felt a chill run down their spine, not daring to utter a single word.

Adrian found this laughable and continued, “You guys were all flaunting your wealth earlier, so why the sudden silence? Are you all chickening out already? Where did all that gusto go?”

All of the former classmates remained quiet.

Still in her wedding dress, Cassey was frozen to the spot. Anyone who saw her would think she was going to marry into a rich family and enjoy a life of luxury herself. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Yet, the truth was that she was just an ordinary girl whose parents spent their entire lives working hard for a meager monthly salary of seven hundred and fifty dollars.

Meanwhile, she did not have a job of her own.

Cassey felt a sudden bitterness at the back of her throat. She had invited Samantha to her wedding to laugh at her. But now, Mario’s family has declared bankruptcy.

“Could Adrian be behind all this?”

Cassey felt a chill run down her spine.

Still finding everything that had happened too surreal and seeing how Adrian had sat down, Samantha could not stop herself from asking, “What’s happening, Adrian?”

Adrian pulled out the seat next to him before saying, “Some people aren’t worthy of being alive while those who are arrogant will eventually be punished for their behavior. By the way, why don’t we get something to eat before we leave since we’re already here?”

“Huh?” Samantha asked in shock.

“Waiter.” Adrian gestured for a waiter, who walked over toward him. “I’d like to order eight of the most expensive dishes your have to offer. Also, a glass of milk for her please.”

The waiter nodded. “Of course, please give me a moment.”

The waiter then left, and Samantha sat down before hastily turning toward him and said, “What are you doing, Adrian? Everyone’s leaving, and so should we.”

“We’ll leave after we’ve had something to eat.”

Samantha was left speechless.

At that moment, the waiter pushed out a trolley and placed eight exquisite dishes on the table. The fare included Australian lobsters, king crabs, wagyu beef, and many other delicacies.

Each dish was worth thousands of dollars.

Meanwhile, everyone’s eyes were wide open as they witnessed everything that was happening before their eyes while Cassey was left in an awkward situation.
