Chapter 22 A Bet
Ophelia was surprised. “So it was a VIP experience card! No wonder that loser suddenly became a VIP.” She then looked at
Osborne with disdain.
Wesley remarked with a chill in his voice, “Let’s go! We’re going to expose that loser right now.” With that, he walked toward Osborne with a sneer.
When Wesley saw that Osborne was busy mingling, he snorted before suddenly speaking loudly, “Ha, this is really strange.
“A worthless commoner who got lucky with a VIP experience card actually thinks he’s a VIP?
“A loser will always be a loser! Even if many people flock to him, he can’t hide his lowly nature as a commoner!”
Wesley’s remarks silenced everyone around. The big shots around were all surprised and turned to look at him.
Someone familiar with Wesley quickly asked, “Mr. Ashford, what do you mean by this? Who are you calling a loser?”
Wesley laughed disdainfully and pointed at Osborne. “Of course, I’m talking about him!”
Afterward, Wesley shouted, “Everyone, you’ve all been fooled by this loser. He is not some big shot, nor does he have any
powerful background. He’s just an orphan and a lowly commoner! The only reason he is here is because he got lucky and received a VIP experience card.
“This loser is just pretending to be someone important. All those business cards and special offers you gave him were for nothing.
“And those who gave hotel room keys, be careful not to lose both your reputation and your dignity.”
After Wesley spoke disdainfully, everyone’s faces shifted, and they looked at Osborne with tight frowns.
Osborne chuckled, having already figured out who Wesley was.
He knew that Ophelia had divorced him because of Wesley.
To say Osborne had no resentment towards Wesley would be a lie. He then scrutinized Wesley while comparing himself to Wesley in his mind.
Wesley was indeed very handsome and tall. As the heir to a top–tier family, his face was full of arrogance, and his designer clothes highlighted his noble status. Compared to him, Osborne’s demeanor did appear much more ordinary.
“What’s the matter? Cat got your tongue, loser?” Wesley taunted. “Now that I’ve exposed your identity and your lies, you must hate me, right? Why don’t you try to argue back?”
Osborne chuckled, “There’s no need.
that no one believed me. Since you’ve explained it to me, I feel relieved.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings erupted in an
uproar.
“He actually admitted it! So he’s really not some big shot, just a commoner who got lucky with a VIP experience card. We almost got fooled by him!”
“No wonder none of us knew him. We thought he was some hidden big shot, but he’s just a lucky low–class commoner.”
“Thank goodness Mr. Ashford pointed it out, or we would have been embarrassed.”
“I even
gave him a half–price VIP card.”
gave
“So did I!”
“No way. We need to get our business cards and VIP cards back! Our business cards and VIP cards are not something at commoner can have!”
“Get them back!”
The faces of the prominent figures darkened, and they all gave Osborne a cold snort. They then ordered their subordinates to retrieve the business cards, VIP cards, and even hotel room keys they had given him.
target of contempt. The business cards,
room keys he had received were soon all taken away.
The area around him became empty as those who had surrounded him before now kept their distance.
Wesley watched with a mocking expression, his handsome face full of disdain and ridicule. Yet, Osborne didn’t seem angry al all, which annoyed Wesley.
Wesley taunted, “Loser, aren’t you upset that I ruined your big moment? Do you want to fight me?”
With that, he suddenly reached out and wrapped his arm around Ophelia’s waist. Her body stiffened, but she didn’t pull NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
away.
Osborne knew Wesley was deliberately provoking him, so he naturally didn’t take the bait.
Osborne then said, “You’re the esteemed heir of the Ashford family, and all you do is run your mouth? If you’re game, I’m up for a little fun.
“Let’s have a one–on–one fight to determine the winner and our fates.
“Got the guts?”
With that, Osborne looked at Wesley disdainfully.
Chapter 22 A Bet
Wesley’s expression froze at the challenge. As an heir to a prestigious family, he couldn’t stoop to a duel with Osborne, let alone one to the death. It was because his life was far more
valuable than Osborne’s.
But Wesley couldn’t ignore the provocation. So, he sneered and replied, “A loser is just a loser, only knowing how to fight! The auction doesn’t allow fighting. So, if you have the guts, let’s compete with
our wealth.
“Let’s see who can spend more money at the auction. The loser will have to submit to the winner. Are you up for it?”
Wesley stared at Osborne with a challenging look. He knew Osborne couldn’t possibly agree to the bet. How could a commoner dare to compete with a noble heir in spending money? Wesley just wanted to humiliate Osborne.
But to Wesley’s surprise, Osborne nodded and calmly said, “Alright, I accept!”
