Becoming the Richest Man Alive

Chapter 113

As the car sped down, the view outside the window zipped past them.

To Casper’s surprise, they ended up going to Tycoon.

Emily brought Casper into the place.

When the manager saw Casper there, the former quickly stepped up to greet the latter.

Casper was faster. He signaled with his eyes and got the manager to stun in place.

The latter was confused, but he stopped walking over to greet the former.

Emily and Casper went into a private room after that.

Emily ordered some dishes before speaking up.

“Listen up, you penniless idiot. Follow my lead later and act accordingly, alright? If everythingprogressed as planned, I will reward you with a thousand in cash. It’s a pretty good deal, eh?”

The only thing Casper could do was to nod and agree to those terms. What else could he say?

It didn’t take long before a middle-aged man entered the private room.

The guy was wearing branded clothing, but his ridiculously expensive and luxurious watch was the onethat truly highlighted his wealth.

Despite the wealth he displayed, the guy had a beer belly and a bloated face. His hairline wasretreating, and it was likely that he would go bald soon.

Even looking at the guy got Emily to feel repulsed. Good thing I brought a fake boyfriend over, thoughtEmily. She didn’t dare to offend the guy, so she had to get someone to pretend to be her boyfriend.Only then would she be able to reject the guy politely and calmly.

The man was practically salivating, and his eyes were glowing when he saw Emily.

Emily’s eyes, however, shone with disgust. If her parents hadn’t pressured her, or if the guy wasn’tslightly more powerful than her dad and they couldn’t afford to offend him… Ugh, I won’t even show uphere.

Gabriel swallowed hard, but later shifted his attention to Casper.

“Who is this, Emily?”

Emily felt disgusted when she heard a man that ugly muttering her name like that. Still, she spoke uppolitely.

“Gabriel, this is my boyfriend, so I think we should just forgo the blind date today. Let me treat you tothis meal today to make up for it,” said Emily. She forced herself to smile as she spoke.

Unfortunately, Gabriel didn’t buy her act. He turned to Casper right away.

“Name your price, buddy. How much will it take to make you abandon Emily? I can instantly transferhowever much you request.”

That was all it took to freeze Emily on the spot. She was well aware of how poor Casper truly was.Shoot! What will I do if this punk actually took the money and abandon me?

As Emily worried, she worked hard to signal to Casper.

She prayed that Casper, the penniless fool she thought he was, would not abandon his post for money.Although our connection is rooted in money… and we’re not really friends… Sh*t!novelbin

Casper got the signals.

He sighed internally and replied calmly, “Sir, I think it’s in everyone’s best interest if we forget aboutwhat you just said.”

Gabriel scoffed.

“Ten thousand! Promise you’ll leave her, and I will transfer the money over right away.”

Casper was slightly taken aback. Huh, this guy is not here to play.

Surprise filled Emily’s heart. D*mn it. Ten thousand! This penniless fool can’t possibly resist thistemptation. Hopelessness engulfed her at that moment.

To her surprise, Casper simply shook his head.

“The answer’s no.”

His calm voice echoed inside the private room.

Emily turned mute.

“Twenty thousand!” said Gabriel.

His expression was turning a little grouchy when he upped his offer.

Emily was shaken to her core. Twenty thousand… Can this penniless sap resist temptations like these?

All Emily could do at that moment was pray endlessly. She also signaled Casper endlessly. She didn’trealize that her eyes were begging him a little.

Casper found it funny when the woman, who had completely disregarded him earlier, behaved like apitiful peasant.

He turned to Gabriel and shook his head before declaring with a straight face on, “To me, Emily ispriceless, and it doesn’t matter how much you offer because I will never let her go.”

Emily was stunned when she heard what Casper said. I never would’ve guessed that a penniless punklike him would say something so cool. Does he really not care about money at all? Does he really seewealth as something unimportant? That is truly rare in times like these.

Gabriel’s expression instantly turned evil.

“You better back down, buddy. I’ve already discussed the matter with Emily’s mother, and I’d adviseyou to name your price, then leave. If you don’t, you will likely lose Emily AND leave without making apenny.”

Casper was about to speak up when someone else interrupted them.

“Hey cuz, what brought you here?”

Soon, two other women entered the private room.

Both women were wearing fashionable branded outfits.

Casper’s expression changed slightly because he met those two women when the two dorms hosted aget-together. They were Jenny and Nancy.

Gabriel wasn’t bothered by the sudden appearance of the two ladies.

Emily, however, was a little exasperated because Jenny was her cousin.

Just then, the two women recognized Casper. Both ladies bulged their eyes. They couldn’t believe thatthey’d meet Casper there.

This is Tycoon, and the prices here are crazy high! What is a broke bloke doing here? And what is upwith his outfit? Most importantly, why is he hanging out with my cousin?

Jenny was surprised.

“Casper Simpson, what are you doing here? Cuz, you know this penniless sap?”

Emily was surprised. She never thought that her cousin would recognize the fake boyfriend shebrought over.

At first, she was relieved to see how Casper wasn’t affected by the allure of cash. That relief dissipatedinstantly, and she was on edge once more.

“Casper is my boyfriend. What’s wrong? Why did you say that? He’s not poor at all,” replied Emily.

She forced a smile to her face, and as she spoke, she signaled her cousin endlessly.

Unfortunately, Jenny didn’t understand what was going on.

“Cuz, this guy used to eat others’ leftovers for meals! He is the definition of poor. How could you takehim as your boyfriend? He is not worthy of you!” complained Jenny when she heard about how Casperwas her cousin’s boyfriend. She simply couldn’t handle that ‘truth’ and was quick to reveal Casper’ssupposed secret.

“Cuz, were you fooled? This man is really poor. All he has is a pretty face. Other than that, he is prettymuch useless,” added Jenny.

Emily was instantly stunned. She didn’t know how to respond to that.

Gabriel, however, almost laughed aloud.

He suddenly became interested in Casper’s past.

“Hey kids, slow down and tell us everything. What is this punk really like? He might’ve been putting onan act and conning Emily this entire time,” said Gabriel with a grin on.

Nancy and Jenny started blabbering. They described Casper as a worthless nobody.

Hearing all that got Gabriel to laugh aloud.

“Hah, so he’s just someone who likes to put on a show. Emily, I’m certain you are fooled. Men likethese are not worthy of you. You should dump him as quickly as possible.”

“It’s true. He is nothing compared to you,” chimed in Jenny in agreement.
