Conglomerate Children Who Look Poor
chapter 42
Aiden understood what Afzal meant, then gave instructions to his sister. Aiden's sister picked up the phone and muttered complacently, “Okay, get ready for a big show.”
Aiden's sister then rushed towards the back of the hall.
Afzal was a poor man in the past. He could not retaliate when underestimated, dropped, and in ridicule all the time. So now when he's rich. Of course he would no longer allow others to demean him, right? Of course Afzal is happy to protect Aiden and his friends. He was also very upset at Quinton's annoying and disgusting behavior!
The opening ceremony went well. Finally came the moment of cutting the tape. The young master of Grand Marshall Restaurant owner Quinton immediately headed to the stage to cut the ribbon.
“Alice, you come with me, yuk!” Quinton took Alice and held Alice's hand gently.
The people inside the hall started to feel envious looking at Quinton. Xavia was even more envious because she felt unlucky. First, Xavia is dating a kingpin like Afzal. Then from Afzal he turned to Yuri, the son of a rich man who is still in the ordinary category. It would be nice if he had a girlfriend like Quinton who was super rich and powerful!
Alice, of course, did not reject Quinton's invitation.
Alice and Quinton walked to the stage. As she passed by Afzal's table, Alice glanced at him cynically. Alice wants to show Afzal, even though Afzal sits at the most special table, still will not be able to equal Afzal's status with other rich children. There will always be a gap between them.
Quinton also looked at Afzal with a triumphant attitude, as if he was trampling on Afzal's self-esteem before everyone's eyes. Actually the reason Quinton hated Afzal was because in the past, his pride had been trampled by a poor man like Afzal.
“In the future, I will make sure to step on your pride and put you under my feet. You're not just going to be just poor!” So thought Quinton.
Afzal still sipped the wine as soon as Aiden's sister returned to the table. After that, he nodded slowly at Afzal, giving the code that everything was in order. They just have to wait for the big show.
Afzal looked at Quinton who still looked very excited on stage. Quinton's father and stepmother were also there. Afzal noticed a strange expression on Quinton's stepmother's face when he found out Quinton was holding Alice on stage.
“Everything, I want to introduce my girlfriend to you. Here it is, her name is Alice!” Quinton introduced Alice. Everyone in the hall looked at Alice who was still in a friendly gang by Quinton.
Afzal had to admit that Alice was really beautiful. Quinton is proud to be Alice's boyfriend.
“Alice, let's greet the guests here,” Quinton whispered to Alice.
“Halo everyone, introduce me Alice!” Alice said awkwardly.
“Wah, so beautiful, how did you meet Quinton? Did you decide to date Quinton because there was an unforgettable moment?”
“Yes story, dong! We want to learn from the Quinton.” experience
Some people there began to flank Alice with various questions.
Alice flicked her hair gently before then replying, “I have known Quinton for a long time. Uncle Ziegler and my father used to be comrades in arms. And the reason I decided to start a relationship with Quinton was because he did something that moved me.”
“Wow!”
“Oh, so so so the story. Quinton is so cool, yeah! The entangled way of taking a woman's heart is indeed by making her touched.”
Everyone in the hall was envious to see Alice and Quinton's affection. Afzal felt a little uncomfortable.
“This young couple in front of us is truly a picture of happiness! All right, it's time for the ribbon-cutting moment to mark the opening of Grand Marshall Restaurant. But before that, we'll see videos of speeches from leaders and CEOs from around the world. We invite all attendees to watch to the big screen,” The word of the host distracts the audience to avoid time polarity.
The lights in the room are turned off.
Alice glanced at Afzal with a cynical smile. Afzal turned around to give her a smile. Alice felt Afzal's smile a little strange. Afzal must be shrouded in envy, he thought.
“Hah?” Everyone was shocked and stared at their respective places.
“This..... yes, God!”.
The video shows Quinton holding a woman's hand into a room. That woman!
Glarrr!!!
Audience surprised.
Quinton was pale.
Alice stunned.
No less surprised of course Quinton's father and stepmother.
“Stat! Brash kid!” Quinton's father couldn't contain his anger.
“No! That's not me! Who did this? Who played the video?” Quinton shouted in a trembling and frightened voice. Even though he had shouted for the video to be stopped, the video continued to run on the big screen.
Not really worth watching!
Alice shook her head in disappointment. Not only was she disappointed, she also felt extremely humiliated and humiliated on stage! Alice has just introduced herself as Quinton's girlfriend and now everyone has to watch the perverted and disgusting Quinton video. In addition, many journalists and media crews were covering inside the hall.
Yeah, Alice's gonna be famous soon.
“You really are a bastard!”
Plakkkp!
Alice landed a hard slap on Quinton's cheek.
Quinton adored Alice. Brought her up and down seconds later Alice was released with contempt.
Alice's cry broke! With a shattered feeling he ran towards the exit of the hall.
“Alice! Alice!”
Naomi didn't expect it to end like this. She knew Alice was very hurt. Naomi immediately pursues Alice before something bad happens to her.
On stage, Quinton's father also beat up Quinton for publicly humiliating him. People look up to the stage, thinking of this family drama as a spectacle.
“Hahaha! Are you satisfied now, Mr Crawford? That kid humiliated you in front of a crowd and put you in a difficult situation. He definitely did not expect to get a reply like this.”
Afzal gave a satisfied look at Aiden, then turned to look at Quinton who was still on stage. Quinton was busy covering his face so that reporters could not take his picture.
“Oke, the show is done. We better go,” Afzal said later.
Afzal had no pity on Quinton at all. Afzal felt Quinton deserved it. After talking briefly to Aiden and his friends, Afzal decides to approach Harper. He had no reason to stay there any longer. He better get home and go back to the dormitory.
