Chapter 1505: 374: Play dumb to catch the wise! _5 Chapter 1505: 374: Play dumb to catch the wise! _5 She knew very well why her older brother invited her over today.
She was, indeed, not so young anymore.
But she didn't want just anyone, she was looking for a man, both rich and handsome.
Mr. White didn't refuse, he laughed and said: “Certainly.”
Eva Webster was initially full of expectations, but after seeing Mr. White's car in the underground garage, she felt utterly deflated.
Just an old Volkswagen.
A brand new model wouldn't even cost 100,000 dollars.
And this one was so banged up!
Eva was speechless.
This was suggested by her own older brother!
Liam Webster actually wanted to introduce her to this type of man.
Besides his looks, what else did this Marcus White have?
The siblings got into the car, where Liam spent the whole time reminiscing about his college days with Mr. White.
Half an hour later, they reached their destination.
“Mr. White, thanks for getting me out here today,” Liam said in his usual jovial tone.
“It's my pleasure.”
Liam then turned to Eva and suggested, “Eva, why don't you add Mr. White on WhatsApp? Aren't you about to go on a business trip up north? Your Brother White here is originally from there!”
North?
What was so great about the north?
It's dirty, shabby, and small.
On hearing her brother's suggestion, Eva politely declined, “Bro, my phone's battery just died.”
Switching her attention back to Mr. White she added, “Sorry about that, Brother White.”
“No worries, maybe next time.”
Next time?
Eva scoffed in her heart.
Yeah right!
She never wanted to see Mr. White again.
What a total pauper.
After she declined, Mr. White turned to Liam, “I'll be heading back now.”
“Sure.” Liam replied, “Drive safe.”
Mr. White nodded, got into his car, and sped away.
Watching the car recede in the distance, Eva complained, “Bro, you want to introduce me to some potential boyfriends, shouldn't you set the bar a little higher? This guy?”
Liam looked at Eva, “Marcus White is an outstanding graduate from a key university of 'Project 985,' why is he not good enough for you?”
Eva retorted speechlessly, “A graduation from a key 'Project 985' university doesn't prevent him from driving an old Volkswagen.”
She then added, “Are you telling me your sister deserves a boyfriend who drives a Volkswagen?”
Although she wasn't particularly pretty, she wasn't ugly either. She was outstanding among average people, had a Bachelor's degree and was about 1.6 meters tall. Even those who weren't as good as her could marry minor bosses!
She naturally wouldn't settle for less.
Liam frowned slightly, “My friend is a little frugal, it's not that he can't afford a better car. He just doesn't want to buy one. Eva, you're too narrow-minded!”
Eva shook her head, “Never mind, we're just not meant to be.”
After uttering those words, she turned around and left.
Watching her retreating figure, Liam shook his head in resignation.
Capital City.
The day of the banquet arrived quickly.
Karina and Seaton were attending a banquet hosted by Mr. Mason.
After an elaborate makeover, Seaton quickly became the highlight of the gathering.
But, she wasn't interested in any of these people.
Seaton's target was Jue.
Karina brought Seaton to Mr. Mason and introduced her, “Teacher Mason, this is my sister, Seaton.”
Seaton looked at Mason and politely said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Mason.”
Mason nodded at Seaton, “Nice to meet you.”
Karina went on, “Teacher Mason, my sister idolizes Master J. She also heard that Master J would appear tonight, so she came with me. Teacher, will Master J really appear tonight?”
Mason glanced at the doorway, “He should be arriving soon.”
Upon hearing his reply, Seaton was thrilled.
