Becoming the Richest Man Alive

Chapter 193

She looked at the clothes in those stores the same way she stared at Casper. Her eyes were filled with tender emotions.

Yes, she was falling for him because he was charming, strong, and had a strong sense of responsibility.

Every time they met, her feelings for him deepened, but Elena was aware that the relationship between her and Casper would not blossom romantically.

Many circumstances proved that Casper felt no such feelings toward her. In fact, he might already have his eyes on somebody else.

Though Elena was not oblivious of it, there was no way she could control her emotions.

The more she tried to keep herself in check, the harder she fell for the man, and the worse her reaction became.

Just like today, she should not even have reacted like that since she was only his secretary.

I’m so ashamed. How am I supposed to face Casper now? How could I act like his girlfriend when he obviously doesn’t have any feelings for me? Damn it. I’ve put us in an awkward situation. To him, I’m merely his subordinate, colleague, and perhaps a friend.

Elena looked down as sadness overwhelmed her.

At this moment, a man walked past her. When he glanced at her, he was slightly stunned to find her with such an expression because he had never met a woman who looked this dejected.

At first, he wanted to take the initiative to talk to her but decided against it since he didn’t want to make her feel even more down.

Right then, Elena took the suit she had chosen for Casper after she paid the bill before leaving the store, oblivious to the man’s stares.

When she was out of sight, he stood motionless on the spot, feeling a little lost as he stared blankly in the direction she had gone in.

A while later, he let out a sigh and finally walked away.

Meanwhile, after buying the suit, Elena collected herself before returning to the hotel in a hurry.

In the meantime, Casper let out a sigh while staring down at his wine-stained outfit, which was gradually turning sticky.

Initially, he only planned to go to the restroom to tidy himself up, but unexpectedly, he bumped into Kitty and Charlie there.

He would have ignored them under normal circumstances. However, the two were being intimate against the only sink in the restroom, which he had originally planned to use. Both of them were lost in their own world.

Staring at the shameless couple, Casper didn’t know how to bring himself to say something.

These people really can’t control themselves in public, can they? I guess I have to go somewhere else to clean myself.

Just when he was about to leave, the couple snapped back to reality. They turned their heads to look at Casper, who was covered in wine. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

It made him seem like a loser —something Kitty and Charlie had always wanted to see, which satisfied them to no end.

Of course, they wished to see the man in a much more miserable state. After all, he was someone they looked down on the most.

“Hey, isn’t this Casper, our current most prominent student?” said Charlie sarcastically. One could not begin to imagine how joyful he was to find Casper looking like that.

On the other hand, Kitty was no different. Never in a million years would she feel sorry for Casper.

As the couple found delight staring at Casper’s cheap, wine-stained suit, neither of them noticed Sharon flash past them.

The woman, now dressed in a chef’s uniform, halted her steps outside the restroom.

Truthfully, she changed into the uniform to put the scumbag in his place, but she didn’t expect to meet him here.

It seems like the other two inside the restroom are acquainted with him.

Sharon had overheard their conversation earlier. So he’s also quite a figure at the university.

Glaring at Casper in disdain, Sharon’s impression of him hit rock bottom once again.

Honestly, she was not one to have a bad impression of someone without any reason.

Her sister, Sheryl, was once deceived by a needy and incapable man like Casper.

Because of that scumbag of a man, Sheryl suffered from severe depression and almost committed suicide. In contrast, that man enjoyed the peak of his life after successfully using Sheryl to climb to the top and become the center of attention amongst women.

If not for Sawyer of Lingham Group, Sharon didn’t even want to imagine where Sheryl might be now. Perhaps the latter would already be six feet under.

That was why Sharon had always despised people like Casper. If it weren’t for the mistake earlier and her duty as a chef today, she would have taught him a harsher lesson.
