Dr. Cheryl glared at him and whispered, "Don’t you dare to mess with me again!"Alex was aggrieved and said, "Cheryl, the fault is not mine.”At half-past five, they arrived at Urasawa Restaurant. There were not many customers in the restaurant. But the cars that were parked in front of the restaurant were all high-end luxury cars, and cars that’s worth tens of millions."Urasawa Restaurant is the second most expensive restaurant to dine in in California.""Seems like you have wealthy classmates to have a reunion gathering here!"

As Benjamin saw Dr. Cheryl and Alex enjoying their dinner, he looked at Alex with fiery eyes. The main reason Benjamin had organized this reunion gathering was to pursue Cheryl. He couldn’t bear to watch Dr. Cheryl and Alex enjoying their sweet moments over dinner.Bootlickers of Benjamin noticed his anger. Then, they turned and looked at Dr. Cheryl and Alex.Britney said, "Hey, your name is Alex, right? Have you never tasted such delicious food before? Do you usually eat lunch at the construction site? What is your occupation?"After Alex finished swallowing a piece of meat, he replied, "I don’t work at the construction site. I’m currently unemployed."Everyone laughed.Benjamin looked at Dr. Cheryl in deep thought. Since Benjamin had pursued Dr. Cheryl for years, he knew that Dr. Cheryl was a kind-hearted person. She had great insight into choosing the best partner for herself. Dr. Cheryl wouldn’t choose a person who was at the bottom of the social hierarchy like Alex as her p

Benjamin’s heart trembled when he heard Manager Ramsay’s warning. He didn’t dare to continue speaking a word after that. Everyone else was afraid to speak after they saw Benjamin kept quiet.

Give it back to me!" The man stared at Britney coldly."I... I didn't steal it." Britney said in fear.Manager Ramsay replied, "How about you admit it and give back the diamond ring. You can’t deny what you’ve done. There are surveillance cameras in our restaurant which have recorded everything."Britney shook her head in denial.The furious middle-aged man tore Britney's clothes and roughly searched her body.Britney yelled and burst into tears, seeking help from Benjamin desperately.But Benjamin stood

Ramsay’s face turned pale and he broke out in a cold sweat.But he dared not bleat. He nodded and walked away in despair. He left the room.Bernard then asked, “Master Alex, did anyone here offend you?”Alex brushed his hair with his fingers and said, “Nothing serious. But this dude here insulted my girlfriend in front of me. I’m not sure how I should deal with him.”Bernard raged, “You piece of shit! You signed your own death warrant. Guards! Throw him into the river and drown him!”Everyone was frightened.Edgar felt a shiver run down his spine. He hurriedly said, “Wait! I am the CEO of Pegasus International, Edgar Shepherd.

Edgar panicked and he dropped on both knees pleading, “No, please! I was wrong, I apologize! Let me compensate you, M

However, the opposite could also be said. Anyone who got on the good side of Thousand Miles Conglomerate would flourish. As Alex appeared, Madame Joanne was the first person to greet him.
