Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade

Chapter 109

Chapter 109 Gathering.

Dylan’s restaurant was located in one of the newer developmental districts of Nebula City.

It was a short distance away from the main part of the city; it had more empty spaces and fewer people.

However, Alex knew that once the area became a little more developed, there would be a substantial crowd flow.

Although it might not seem like a good idea to open up a restaurant here now, business would surely bet booming in the future.

Located beside a broad road, Delicious Delights was quite a big restaurant with a second floor.

When Alex neared the entrance of the restaurant, he saw a whole row of cars parked in front. Several people were standing beside a golden BMW, all smoking as they chatted away.

They were all his university classmates but none that he was really close to.

The leader of the group was Leo Hale, the heir to the Hale family. He was one of the more well–known rich kids in their class and had been interested in Heather before. Too bad for him, she had had absolutely no interest in him.

-Presently, he was leaning against the BMW as his classmates oohed and ahhed at his new car. The males

sighed in admiration and envy. “Leo, you really are a winner in life. We’ve only just graduated a few years, yet already you’re driving a BMW! That’s a 5 Series exclusive, isn’t it? The 540?”

Leo laughed and replied arrogantly, “Yeah! It costs around 800 thousand, no biggie!”

“F***ing hell! The 540? That’s the most expensive imported 5 Series!”

“Damn! I can’t even manage to scrounge up enough to pay for the down payment of a BMW 1 Series! Looks like we’re leagues apart, Leo!”

“Leo, the engine should be pretty powerful, right?”

Smiling, Leo answered in a casual tone, “It’s okay. I guess you can say it’s more powerful than most car engines. I have yet to meet its match on the roads.”

“Damn, that’s so sweet! If only I could afford a BMW. My girlfriend keeps bemoaning the fact that I can’t buy a car. You know how annoying that is?”

At that moment, one of the group spotted the arrival of the new car and yelled in shock, “Holy crap! Is the driver of that Audi R8 our classmate too?”

“The f***? Isn’t that Alex Jefferson, the useless man who’s living off of his wife? How’s it possible he’s driving such a luxurious car?”

“Did the Jennings family suddenly get rich? Since when were they able to drive a car that costs more than 2 million?”

“I’m pretty sure Heather bought it, and he’s just borrowing it.”

Jealousy and admiration shone in their eyes even as their words showed their disdain of Alex being a kept

man.

At that moment, all of them were practically green with envy.

Who cared if they were a kept man if they were able to marry one of the prettiest women in the city? A woman who was willing to buy a million luxury car for them?

Did it matter how one attained it as long as one was at the pinnacle of life?

Leo’s expression darkened when he noticed Alex in the driver’s seat. “So it’s that piece of sh*t! What a lucky ba****d he is!”

Pausing, he continued, “I’m certain Heather didn’t buy that car. As far as I know, the Jennings have fallen out of power. The chairman of Four Seas Corporation used tens of millions to buy over 61% of the company shares. There’s no way they could afford an expensive car like that.”

That surprised everyone, and they began to wonder if Alex had bought the car himself.

Nah, that’s impossible. It would already be a miracle for him to afford an electric scooter, let alone a car.

“You can stop your guessing. That car is the new car of our chairman. That guy is the driver for the chairman and probably borrowed it to act like he’s rich.”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
