Becoming the Richest Man Alive

Chapter 63

The three of them all looked mad with anger in their eyes, but Casper was glad. That was an indication that they were true friends that would do anything for each other.

“Don’t worry. I’ll bring you guys along next time, okay?” Casper raised both his hands up, appeasing them. He did not want to dwell on the subject any longer than needed.

“Hmph. That’s more like it.”

Felix looked satisfied after hearing that and gave Casper a pat on the shoulder before turning over to chat with Wendy.

Nevertheless, Casper could still see that neither Remy nor Colton was talking to Nancy, Jenny, or Mandy. He had to ask Lillian to comfort Mandy even though she wanted to sit with him since Mandy’s day was awful, to say the least.

After that, Casper went on to talk with Remy and Colton about something else rather than the incident prior.

Casper’s seat was closer to Wendy and Felix compared to Remy and Colton, who sat at the back of the car with Lillian and Mandy in front of them.

On the other hand, Nancy and Jenny were in the first row. They were more spread out than they were when they came, which made Casper feel a little weird. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Hey, Felix. I noticed that the people in our dorms didn’t really interact with each other after our descend from Terragon Hill. On top of that, the men in your dorm all looked so average. Casper has something going on, but his wardrobe’s ugly as heck! The other two, Remy and Colton, looked average at best. Nancy and Jenny didn’t even look interested.” Wendy sounded very disappointed.

“They didn’t even talk much during the climb, Felix.”

“I’ll have you know, all three of them have great personalities! Especially Casper. I would be weight down with guilt for the rest of my life if anything happened to Mandy if it wasn’t for him.”

Felix proceeded to whisper into Wendy’s ears, “Did you know how amazing Casper was? He bought Kitty a brand new phone with his hard-earned cash, and she still hasn’t returned it even though they broke up.”

He did a brief pause. “That’s just dumb. Kitty should be regretting her decision every second of every hour.”

“I think Kitty’s actually just stupid.” Wendy pursed her lips, showing signs of pity for Kitty.

“I don’t think so. But she’s definitely too naive. She doesn’t see the bigger picture.” Felix grinned.

Wendy shook her head lightly. “Nancy’s skincare products alone cost more than two thousand. And that’s excluding her cosmetics. Sigh. I doubt there will be a next time after this. It just feels like they weren’t meant to be.”

“What can I do now? I was really hoping they could all get along nicely.”

Felix agreed with what Wendy said.

All that time, he had never seen any interactions between his mates and the girls, not during their climb up Terragon Hill, nor during Mandy’s incident.

Despite that, Felix did not want to see his friends being looked down on.

Then, he let out a sigh. “Let’s leave this as it is for now and take some time off after this.”

“That’s the only way, I suppose. You can’t force this sort of things.” Wendy was also out of options.

Casper also felt helpless after overhearing what they said. You really can’t force it. Things won’t end well.

While they were on Terragon Hill, Casper also realized that neither Nancy nor Jenny really talked to Remy and Colton. Their back and forths were short and brief, not wanting to embarrass Felix and Wendy.

Colton and Remy were very talkative people under normal circumstances. They could go on about something ten times longer than others usually do. Furthermore, they would often interrupt or interject themselves into people’s conversations. However, with two pretty ladies before them, it was like cats caught their tongues as they could barely think of a response, let alone hold a conversation.

It was like that throughout the trip, making Casper anxious for their sake.

Casper figured that he might be able to help them out if Lillian did not keep on pestering him.

When they reached the school, Felix proposed that they share a meal at the cafeteria, but Nancy, Jenny, as well as Mandy, turned down the invitation, saying that they had other plans.

Lilian, whose hands were tightly around Casper’s arm, and Wendy were the only ones that tagged along as even Remy and Colton both headed off to the dorm room.

Casper knew that they wanted to head back to play games, so he let them be.

“Casper, did you know how dangerous it was today?” Felix said. “The superintendent told me that those people were all vicious thugs. I can’t even imagine what would happen if you didn’t save Mandy.”

He was still shaken by the incident. “Casper, you don’t know how grateful I am towards you right now. From now on, I, Felix Junger, will follow you to the ends of the world.”

“I’m not looking for lackeys, yeah.” Casper snickered. “We’re bros, so don’t say stuff like this ever again, okay? Besides, Mandy’s safe, right?”

“That, we are. We’ll be brothers for life!” Felix puffed up his chest and replied earnestly.

Seeing that, Casper knew full well that Felix was not joking around and definitely meant what he said.

“Casper, can you tell us about what actually happened? It must have been intense, no?”

Wendy stared at Casper with curiosity written all over her face, blinking innocently like a child that discovered something new.

“You even changed your outfit. Was it like how it is in movies? Did you disguised yourself to blend in?”

Meanwhile, even though Lillian was quiet, her eyes were still focused on Casper. It was clear that she cared for Casper and wanted to hear what he did in that situation.

When Casper sent the message notifying of the human traffickers in the monastery, Lillian’s heart literally skipped a beat. She was worried about his safety, to the point where she lost all her appetite.

She was only able to feel relief when they went to the monastery with the police and found Casper still alive.

Hence, Casper had no choice but to give them a brief summary of what happened, obviously leaving out anything about the treasures and the fight.

“That sounds so dangerous, man. Don’t ever act alone like that again! I could at least help you hold those goons off if you brought me along, lessen the risk, you know? What if, and I mean if, something were to happen to you? Do you think I can go on living normally?” Felix looked resolute as he patted Casper’s shoulder.
