Kyle leaned against the window of his Rolls-Royce, smoking a cigarette. His designer sunglasses, worth tens of thousands, rested on the bridge of his nose. His custom-tailored suit gave him an air of sophistication.
In contrast, Gigi's boyfriend, Josiah, appeared somewhat awkward. His appearance and style were a far cry from Kyle.
Meanwhile, Remy's boyfriend, Edison, had a bold, fashionable look. With his slicked-back hair and checkered shirt, he exuded an artistic flair.
All four girls had dressed up meticulously, looking even more stunning than usual. Among them, Bella stood out the most. Even though her roommates were beautiful as well, they couldn't compare to her. No amount of effort could overshadow her radiant charm.
Once everyone had gathered, they headed to Majestic Hotel.
However, there was a problem. Majestic Hotel was 12 miles from Alnewgo University. The Rolls-Royce couldn't fit everyone in one trip.
Luna couldn't help but ask, "Jack, where's your Bentley? Why didn't you bring it to drive us all?"
Jack shook his head, indicating that the Bentley wasn't available.
Luna and her boyfriend, Kyle, exchanged a peculiar look.
Bella quickly interjected, "I'll bring my MINI!"
She was clever enough to realize that the Bentley belonged to Drakengard Games. Now that Jack had been removed from the company, the car was no longer his.
Luna nodded. "Alright. I'll take Remy and her boyfriend first. You can bring Gigi and hers."
Bella agreed and drove off toward Majestic Hotel.
Throughout the ride, Gigi's boyfriend, Josiah, remained as reserved as ever. He only spoke when spoken to. Jack tried to make conversation with him, but Josiah only responded with brief, short answers.
Curious, Gigi couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Newman, what industry are you in? You're quite accomplished."
He smiled and replied, "I run a high-tech company."
"Wow! That's incredible. Your company must be really profitable, right?" she pressed further.
Still smiling, he spoke with a hint of pride. "Companies like this don't make huge profits, but we might get listed on Masdaq back in Osmo."
Luna quickly added, her voice brimming with pride, "I heard their company's valuation is close to two billion Osmarion. That's about ten billion dollars!"
This news left Gigi, Remy, and even Bella shocked and envious.
For Bella, in particular, that number struck a chord. Clarice had once shared her expectations for a future son-in-law. One of her requirements was a net worth of ten billion dollars.
