Chapter 7303
Elaine actually didn't think that Mr. Larcelle would give in that easily from just a video post, when he was being so pompous outside the airport just earlier.Still, even as she grinned triumphantly, she was thinking to herself that it really didn't hurt to post so much on social media—that was something she used to great effect now, no?With that in mind, she snorted coolly and told Mr. Larcelle, "Young man, I don't mind giving it to you straight—never overestimate your own importance. Always understand that there's always a bigger fish… See, my husband is an important man in the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so he can't show off too much. If it were just me alone, I'd be flying to the Maldives on a G650. Why would I even get on the same plane as you?"Any pride Mr. Larcelle had completely vaporized under Elaine's menacing glare just then, and he kept bowing his head in apology, "Yes, you're right, ma'am. I should know better and tone it down!"Nodding in satisfaction, El
Chapter 7302
While Mr. Larcelle knew what he was dealing with, Mrs. Larcelle definitely didn't.Although she had hooked up with Mr. Larcelle for a while now, she never really enjoyed the privilege of a private jet, only hearing him talk about it a couple of times.And Mr. Larcelle definitely couldn't bear to splurge on a long journey with a private jet, only hitching rides after a flight had been chartered, or just for a short trip back to Aurous Hill. As the cost-effectiveness of private jets was simply that low, private jet owners usually had agents negotiating bargains with interested parties—a few dozen thousand Oskian dollars to cover fuel costs, and they'd happily let someone else ride along. It was very much like a cabbie picking up a fare on his way home after a long journey.Still, to put on airs, Mr. Larcelle once spent a hundred grand flying from Aurous Hill to Coleham, and he had since been bragging about it, even telling his new wife that he would fly private jet wherever he went.
Chapter 7301
There weren't many others waiting in the luxuriously decorated lounge, as the first-class lounge was separate from the guest lounge. The latter was meant for everyone else, whether flying economy or holding the airline's VIP card. In contrast, the first-class lounge was only open to the guests who spent hundreds of thousands for a transoceanic flight.After Charlie, Claire, Elaine, and Jacob showed their tickets, a young waiter led them to the couch inside.By sheer coincidence, both Mr. Larcelle and Mrs. Larcelle were there too, having breakfast.Grudges were never easily forgotten, and Elaine started toward them as soon as she saw them, rolling up their sleeves.Mr. Larcelle was himself surprised to see Charlie and the others, as flying first-class from Aurous Hill to the Maldives costs up to 70,000.In his mind, he was even cursing—it really hurt his wallet to spend 140,000 Oskian dollars on two first-class tickets. And yet, all four of those losers could afford first class?

Jacob was himself sulking after being humiliated.But there was no helping it when Mr. Larcelle had already left, giving him no chance to salvage his dignity.He hence had no choice but to take the loss and head into the airport with Charlie and Claire.Elaine was sulking too, muttering, "Shit, I never had to suffer such an insult before! Not even back in the day, when we all just opened our windows and yelled at our neighbors… But that prick had to rub it in! It's killing me!"Claire knew her mother's temper and hence quickly reasoned, "That's enough, Mom. It's no big deal in the first place—don't obsess over it. Remember, we're all supposed to be having fun."Elaine groaned, "I overheard them saying they're going to the Maldives too… Are they going on the same flight?"Charlie shrugged. "It's not like there's direct flights from Aurous Hill to the Maldives every day. This is also the season for tropical vacations, and that means there'd be a flight on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sat

Beside them, Elaine was not about to take that crap.Glaring at the middle-aged man, she stood akimbo as she bellowed, "What are you getting so smug about? You're just driving a Bentley! My husband used to be the vice-president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so you can ask the members if he drives a 2B Cullinan!""Not 2B—it's BB! It's a BB Culinnan!" Jacob promptly cried.Elaine waved him off impatiently. "It's all the same. What's the point?"However, Mr. Larcelle clearly wasn't worried about Elaine, and wheeled on Clarie with a grin, "I'm sure they're your parents? Why don't you tell them to stop being so vain when they're already this old?"Then, turning to the charming woman beside him, he beckoned, "Come on, darling. Let's head over to the first-class lounge already."Mrs. Larcelle was just feeling proud that her husband managed to rub it in their faces, and purred, "Okay, darling. I always told you to have some standards—you'd never win struggling with the poo
Chapter 7298
Jacob was never one to pass up any chance to show off—and would do it even if the timing was poor.In his mind, Mr. Larcelle just lost.After all, the man tried to frame his Rolls key for being a fake, so now he showed it off, proving that it was the real deal.Still, as Mr. Larcelle took the key, he fiddled with it a couple times, pressing some buttons and suddenly snickered.Throwing it back at Jacob, he snorted in disdain, "They really can make it look real these days. Where did you get that from? Amazon?"Jacob didn't expect Mr. Larcelle to throw it, and clawed the air to catch it frantically as if he would miss.When he did catch it, he promptly snapped at Mr. Larcelle, "Where are your manners, man? I'm showing you a Rolls key since you don't have one, but you're throwing it like a baseball?! Are you going to pay for it if you damage it?!"Mr. Larcelle snorted in disdain. "What, you think I can't afford to pay for bootleg crap?"That was when Elaine bellowed furiously, "Op

Good novel!
I’ve already read 252 chapters and paid $19.99 but there are 1,792 chapters .. OMG I wd just imagine the ending!
Would seriously love to know how this book ends. feels like I'm just getting to the good part. charging for every one page chapter is getting a bit ridiculous though
Just found out I still need over 16000 coins to finish reading the book. Well 10000 coins cost $99 I guess I won’t find out how this book will end. Apple is going to get another call about this stupidity.
I complained to Apple about the way their App partners are doing and told them I’ll never buy another App or book from their App Store for me or my daughter. This is stupid that I have spent over $20 and still have not finished the book and came to another section that is locked. Where did all my co
I bought &19.99 worth of coins at the first renew of 12 coins . Where did all my coins go ? This sight is a ripoff
I thought jasmine mentioned the necklace
can't even read one book for 20 dollars Do not buy from this site
This just turns me off. What about your other books? I could have tried reading them. But not anymore. It’s too costly.
I pretty much agree. This just turns me off. What about your other books? I could have tried reading them. But not anymore.
I am disappointed in the fact that you charge so much to read one story. I am very interested in seeing how this turns out, but I have already paid more than a book would at a store. So I will stop and wish you well. Thank you for writing an interesting story and I hope the ending was just as good.
