Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 21

Benjamin whispered to me immediately, "At one glance, I can tell that that man is really rich."

I disagreed. "Rich people will not choose that watch. That is one of Rolex's lower-end products. Those who would buy this type of watch are people who spend just to purchase something from the brand.

"My guess is that he's new money at most."

To my surprise, Isabelle harrumphed when she heard my comment.

"How dare you say that he's new money? Even if he is, that's better than being a pauper like you."

I was really tempted to punch her in the face.

Right at this moment, that man started pestering Charlotte out of the blue.

She wanted to leave, but he refused to let her go. He pulled her by her wrist and insisted that she drink with him.

Charlotte wasn't going to entertain him. She shoved his hand away forcefully, lifted her finger and pointed at his face.

"Watch it. Don't you dare touch me again!"

That warning from her took the man aback. The smile froze on his face.

After all, those who were sitting around were his friends. Charlotte's frigid attitude was, without a doubt, humiliating him.

Soon enough, the look on his face turned sinister.

"You are the one who should watch it. Let me tell you. You have to drink this today, whether you like it or not!"

As he said that, he put the glass right by Charlotte's mouth. Its rim even came into contact with her lips.

Charlotte tilted her head aside to avoid the glass. In a swift move, she snatched the glass from him and splashed its contents on the man's face.

"Here. Drink all you want!" Upon saying that, she turned around and walked away.

The man was completely staggered.

His friends around him burst into laughter. Even the few ladies glanced over at him with mocking gazes.

The man wiped the alcohol from his face before turning around and roaring, "I dare all of you to keep on laughing!"

Everyone quietened down instantly.

"William, what are these?"

"A box of beer caps."

"What is it they're drinking? It looks pretty interesting."

"It's Corona, a type of beer."

A woman with straight bangs overheard our conversation. Suddenly, she raised a brow at me. "You're pretty knowledgeable, aren't you?"

Without waiting for my answer, another woman interrupted, "Knowledgeable my foot! Don't you know who he is? He's William White, that pretentious man whom Lina dumped."

"Oh? He's William?"

"Yeah! I was stunned to see him come over. I really have no idea how he can be shameless enough to come here.

"Not only is he dressed in counterfeit goods, he's got the two ugly ducklings from his dorm to change into counterfeit outfits too. What a joke."

That brief comment tickled the group of women. They started laughing and directing mocking gazes toward us.
