The girls sounded like they wanted River and Rosalie to break up. Rosalie’s family background was more than enough to make them jealous. Back when they were in the same class for three years, with a few of them even sharing a dorm with her, they did not notice any difference in her daily life compared to theirs. Nobody expected her to be a young lady of the Lafayettes.Despite being wealthy, Rosalie had worked hard. Her ex-classmates remembered that she was the most diligent student in the school. She was always ranked first in exams, and the school leaders and teachers prioritized her a lot. She did not disappoint in the college entrance examinations as well. She passed with flying colors and was accepted by a prestigious university. Putting aside Rosalie’s background, just her exam results alone were more than enough to make her a subject of envy. They could never catch up to her back then. Many students would go to tuition classes, but Rosalie never did. The only expl

Unfortunately, they did not even have the right to dream about it. A man as outstanding as River would only fancy Rosalie, who was equally competent as he was. “Mr. York’s looks truly live up to the rumors. He’s one of a kind.”Rosalie’s ex-classmates complimented River. A few married ones had brought their husbands along. When they saw River pulling out the chair for Rosalie and letting her sit first, they suddenly felt their husbands were an embarrassment. Even the guys’ gazes were filled with envy. Although they were all men, it felt as if River was superior to them. Quite a number of men who became CEOs would gradually gain weight, but that was not the case for River. He maintained his body well and looked like a model. He looked way better in a suit than any other man present.His aura was impeccable, and his actions and speech gave off an air of nobility. Yes, they thought he was like a noble. River was definitely not an ordinary office worker. He probably came

River and Rosalie chatted throughout their journey to La Grande Solville. The trip felt extremely short. After the car was parked, they got out of it. At first, Rosalie had brought the bouquet from River with her. However, she changed her mind after taking a few steps. She told River, “Let’s not show off. We should put the bouquet back.”She was scared they would break up sooner if they showed off their relationship too much. River followed her wishes. He unlocked the car again to let her put the bouquet back in the passenger seat. A few minutes later, they arrived at the private room that Lucinda spoke of. A waitress had just exited the room and immediately greeted them.Rosalie smiled to return the greeting. “Let’s head inside.”Rosalie opened the door to the private room. She said, “Sorry for being late and making you all wait.”River followed right after her.In the private room, Rosalie’s ex-classmates who had agreed to attend the gathering were all present. There w

“To be honest, the car and house I bought in Solville were all paid for with the money I earned here. I didn’t touch my previous personal assets.”Levi was already worth hundreds of millions. Though River did not have shares initially, his income was still substantial. After acquiring shares, his net worth skyrocketed, making him a rising star in Solville’s business world.Buying a villa worth tens of millions or a luxury car was no big deal for him.He believed that money earned through one’s own abilities should be enjoyed freely and spent as one pleased. That way, it would be with a clear conscience, too.His nana had always taught them that business should be conducted honestly and money earned cleanly. That way, no matter how much they spent, they could do so without guilt or unease.All the boys kept this lesson close to their hearts.“I know. Even without your identity as a York, you could still afford to buy a house and a car. I was just deliberately mocking you back then

Rosalie asked River, “I’ve been to Meadspring several times and even visited their home, but I’ve never met the head of the family. I only saw his wife. That Mrs. Lafayette is truly so beautiful, even as a woman, I couldn’t help but compliment her.”Suzy Lafayette was already in her thirties. If they rounded off the number, she could be considered forty, but she maintained herself so well that she looked like she was in her early twenties.River said, “I haven’t met them, but I know of them. My cousin and his wife are close friends with Ben Young-Johnson and his wife. Right now, they’re staying at our home, Wildridge Manor, with their children as guests.“Ben’s wife, Jane, and Laurent are twins. She and Ben’s marriage was a whirlwind, too, and their love story is a bit like my oldest cousin, Zachary, and his wife Serenity’s. Back when they were arguing because Zack hid his identity, he went to Ben for advice.“Our families also have business dealings. Ben’s younger brother, Remy, i

Rosalie felt a sense of relief that River’s affection was directed at her.If he had liked someone else, she might have been consumed by envy.“You’re done?” River said with a smile. His voice was warm and pleasant.Rosalie smiled naturally and walked up to him. “Yes, I’m done. Sorry to keep you waiting.”“It’s no problem. I’m happy to wait however long it takes.”He handed her the bouquet he had bought. As she accepted it, he looked at her and said, “You look really beautiful like this. You look so at ease.”“I didn’t want to go home since it would take too much time back and forth, so I changed in the restroom. I keep over a dozen sets of clothes there for emergencies.“You changed, too?”Rosalie had a keen eye and noticed he had changed. She reached out and touched his chin. “You shaved too. Your beard always gets shaved off as soon as it starts growing.“River, what would you look like with a beard? Would it hide your handsomeness?”River also touched his chin and said, “
