Chapter 57


    The high school reunion was hosted at the Royal Hotel. Although the ce was not as extravagant as


    the revolving restaurant, a table reservation cost at least ten to twenty thousand. So the Royal Hotel


    was considered avish diner.


    For someone receiving an average amount of sry, a meal there would cost three to four months of


    their monthly earnings. Not everyone in their ss was so lucky in life. Some were doing good, while


    some were barely holding their life together.


    A few men d in suits were weing neers near the hotel entrance.

    They crowded around Chloe’s Porsche Panamera upon her arrival.


    “Oh? Isn’t this the prettiest girl in our ss? I heard you’re earning a few million a year. I guess that’s


    true since you’re driving a Porsche!” A few male ssmates began to bootlick.


    Chloe shed a shy smile upon hearing thepliments.


    But the smile on everyone’s faces froze when they saw Levi getting out of the passenger’s seat.


    They did not expect Levi to attend the reunion, not to mentioning to the venue alongside Chloe.


    “Oh, it’s Levi, the influential figure back in the day.” A well-dressed man broke the awkward silence. He


    was the ss monitor, Jed Barrett.


    Even though he was the ss monitor, Levi had always outshone him in the past. So Jed spent his


    younger days chasing behind Levi, trying to match up with Levi’s aplishments.


    Jed sessfully entered one of the top universities and is currently working in a multinational


    corporation after graduation. He was rumored to be earning a few million a year as well.


    Jed’s car was a pricey Range Rover. He was one of the high achievers in the ss.


    Levi greeted him with a smile.


    “We thought you wouldn’te, Levi.” A few other ssmates asked shockingly.


    Jed rolled his eyes at the person who asked the question. “Levi is not a narrow-minded person. He’s


    not someone to be bothered by his current situation.”


    Everyone discussed Levi’s matter in the private room earlier. They shared a simr opinion that Levi


    would not attend the reunion because he would be too ashamed to face everyone else due to his


    recent imprisonment. But who would have thought Levi showed up in the end.


    “You’re right. Levi is a tough guy. We will never be able to reach his standard.” The other ssmates


    laughed.


    They were implying Levi’s presence as a show of his shamelessness.


    Jed strode past Levi and came to a halt in front of Chloe. “You’re finally here, Chloe. Come, follow me


    into the room now. Everyone is waiting for you.”


    Jed was interested in Chloe. He knew Chloe was still single, so he deliberately organized the gathering


    since he had the ability and qualification to pursue her.


    Everyone crowded around Chloe and disregarded Levi.


    “Shall we?” Chloe stopped to address Levi before he followed them into the hotel.


    Many people had already arrived on the third floor of the Royal Hotel.


    Some of them even brought along their partners. So the venue was much livelier than Levi expected.


    Everyone stood up to wee Chloe, especially the men.


    Chloe was a beauty, a sessful beauty, nheless. So she was shining brighter than ever in


    everyone’s eyes.


    Levi looked for a random seat and sat down.


    “Are my eyes deceiving me? Isn’t that Levi?” One of the men, Wayne Warren, eximed. “It’s really


    him. Levi is here!”


    Everyone turned to look at Levi all of a sudden.


    Levi was once the most affluent among his peers, the dark horse in the city’s business world right after


    he graduated from university. He was a man with a worth of over a billion, admired by women and


    envied by the men.


    But after his downfall at the Garrison family’s hand, Levi became the most despicable person in


    everyone’s mind. They rebuked and insulted him as much as they looked up to him in the past.
