GoodNovelChapter 487
Everyone was overjoyed. This was a once-in-a-lifetopportunity.
They had never cinto contact with a wealthy person worth hundreds of millions, not to mention the fact that
he was their classmate.
If they could ride his coattails, even if he were to just show them the smallest bit of kindness, they might get to
be successful in the future.
"Wow! | really didn't know we had a hidden talent amongst our classmates. How did our class cout with
someone like Julian?" Grace lamented. "But then again, | already felt that Julian was not that simple back in
those days. And look at him now-he's rich!"
"Yeah. | remember | used to sit behind him."

"Really? Then you guys must have been very close, right?"
"Haha. Of course. We were deskmates!"
While everyone was chatting away, Matthew sat by the side. He listened to them as they boasted about their
relationships with Julian.
Gazing at Matthew, a trace of contempt appeared at the edge of Grace's mouth.
"Why don't you go back first, Matthew? It seems like the reunion party tonight isn't for you."
"Why is that so?" Matthew frowned in response.
"What do you think?" scoffed Grace. "Those in attendance today are on their way up in life. Didn't you hear? Leo
is the managing director of his company. As for me, I'm in charge of our company's finance. The rest of them are
either senior white-collar workers in companies or entrepreneurs."
Everyone in the room gazed at Matthew with a smug and disdainful look on their faces.
Grace went on, "Besides, Julian is a big boss with aworth of hundreds of millions. But look at you. You're just
a janitor. What do you have in common with any of us? Matthew, | know what you're thinking. You wanted to find
yourself an opportunity and ask us to help you, right?
We understand. If there's another chance, we'll help you to find a decent job. But, you can't be here to ruin the
reunion party tonight. Once Julian gets here, it isn't just eating that we'll be doing. We'll have to go to a karaoke
bar with him and maybe something else too.
By then, it'll be hard to tell how much we'll be spending. Do you know it's normal to spend tens of thousands just
for one night at a karaoke bar? And when we have to share thousands worth of expenses, would you be able to
afford it?"
Upon hearing that, Matthew's brows knitted. Why is she acting like a snob?
Just when he was about to explode, Leo suddenly waved his hand. "Hey, Grace. We're classmates. How can you

way she worded it was wrong.
Everyone should know what they're capable of and recognize their abilities. It's not that we don't treat you as our
classmate. But the expenditure tonight will be too high.
We shouldn't torment you with the burden. How about this. | can ask the kitchen to make you sdishes and
you can bring them home. We can share your bill amongst us!"
The crowd laughed secretly and Grace instantly praised, "Leo, you're so good to your friends. Hurry up and thank
Leo, Matthew! The dishes at Prosperous Hotel aren't bad. Just a few of them would cost a few hundred!"
However, with an icy expression, Matthew said in a flat tone, "There's no need. It's just a meal. | can still afford it.
Everyone, I'm still going to repeat the sthing. I'll make sure | return every cent that | owe." Everyone's
expression went cold at once. Furiously, Grace yelled, "Don't be stupid, Matthew! This is for your own good. How
can you be so ungrateful? Are you sure that you will be paying us back? Huh. When it's tto pay the bill, I'm
sure you'll ccrying to us saying that you don't have the money. I've met a lot of people like you. You're
simply the lowest class of men!"
