The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor
Chapter 217

"Oh right, Rachel's husband is going to treat us, right? He's a factory manager, a big boss. This small amount of money is nothing to him," Rosa said, smiling.

Dylan's expression darkened. It was true: he had said that he was going to treat everyone to bolster his reputation.

However, the incident from that morning cost him a lot of money. Moreover, their factory had not received a lot of orders these past two months. He might not be able to foot the bill if they ate and drank until it raked up to a few hundred thousand.

More importantly, he would need to pay plenty of medical bills to the hospital.

"N-No problem!"

Rachel managed an awkward smile. She had said that while she was boasting. She could not turn back now, not when her reputation was at stake.

"Hello, everyone. Long time no see!"

Trevor chuckled heartily as he walked over.

"That's right, Trevor. We haven't seen each other in a long time. We're gathered here today to welcome you back!”

Hugh smiled. "What happened? Your girlfriend isn't with you?"

"Oh, she had some business to attend to tonight.

That's why she isn't here."

Trevor scanned the crowd. "What's wrong? Aren't we all here? Why aren't we going in yet?"

"Heh. A very beautiful woman hasn't arrived yet. Want to take a lucky guess, Trevor?" Rachel spoke in a mysterious tone.

"A very beautiful woman?"

Trevor was stunned for a while, and after racking his mind, he answered, "You're already here...so the only other person who you call 'beautiful' is Selena Taylor, right? What happened? You guys managed to get in contact with her?"

Rachel never expected Trevor to guess the answer so fast. Her expression soured slightly. "That's right. We got into contact with her. Only, she's changed so much over the past few years!"

After she said that, she quickly launched into yet another narration of Selena's life to Trevor, who had just returned to the country.

At this moment, a taxi pulled over on the roadside. Selena and Fane got down from it.

Selena wore the branded outfit Fane had bought for her. She was already exuding elegance on her own; she seemed even more of a lady when she wore the new clothing.

She smiled sweetly at everyone when she got down from the car. The men were taken aback by her appearance.

"Matt, you're here!"

Selena was slightly shocked at the sight of her ex. Back during their university days, she had dated Matt because she thought he was attractive.

Unfortunately, Selena only allowed Matt to hold her hand even after nearly a year of dating. She told him that she wanted to save everything else for marriage.

She never expected Matt to actually argue with her over this. He subsequently cheated on her and slept with Rachel behind her back.

Selena could not accept something like this. She could not accept how Matt told her that he loved her yet had slept with her friend. Needless to say, she broke up with him.

Of course, Matt and Rachel were not together either. Matt wanted money and so did Rachel, yet the two did not want to look for the money themselves, so they chose to find rich partners.

If Selena had known Matt was here, she never would have come no matter how much she was pressed. She was already here though, so all she could do was manage a small smile. "Oh, so this is your ex. She's really pretty!"

Matt's girlfriend, Britney, stepped forward. She had a frosty smile on her face as she spoke, "It's a pity that a gorgeous woman like you married a foot soldier. He can't even afford a scooter, and you guys used a cab to come over. What a waste of an excellent face and figure!"

"Ex?"

Fane was taken aback for a moment before he gave a wry smile. It seemed that this was not going to be a peaceful night.
