Chapter 1: This Is My Boyfriend
When Felicity James came out of the room, she was still a bit dizzy.
Having had quite a lot of wine, her stomach was extremely uncomfortable, and she felt nauseous and aggrieved.
Tonight, it was her first university reunion since graduation.
Several of her friends made a pact to not go home until completely drunk.
Who knew they would start a drunken madness, humiliating Felicity in the process.
"Felicity, we are seeing you after so many years; how come you are still pretending to be noble? Being the elder daughter of James Group makes you cool, you don't think like that anymore, right?"
"Oh! She must not. Here I was thinking you were living well all these years, but you are still single? Hahaha! What an irony. Back then, you were so full of yourself that you didn't even look at that guy who I liked; you rejected him straight away. Now you are reaping what you sowed."
"Felicity, look at us. We have all found love; we are all happy with someone who matches well with us. Especially, Anne, her fiancé started his own company; he also bought a house and car. Recently, he proposed to her with a diamond ring. And you! You acted like the queen of our department; now you are nothing!"
Their sharp mocking words reverberated in Felicity's ears; her heart was stabbed by these words again and again!
It turned out that the so-called student reunion was just a competition of who won in life.
They all came just to humiliate her.
She was the idiot who regarded them as good friends!
Having felt insulted and mocked enough, Felicity had left the reunion room with the purpose to go to the ladies' room. Unexpectedly, she before she walked straight into someone after a couple steps.
She promptly apologized before even looking up, "I'm sorry."
She raised her head to look at the person in front of her...
In front of her, there stood an exceptionally handsome man.
His face was exquisite as if God carefully carved his every feature. His clean and dark eyebrows sat perfectly above his eyes, which were deeper than the ocean. His nose was high and straight, and his lips, red and thin. He was dripping with sexiness.
Around 1.8 meters tall, his lean body was wrapped in a suit that was tailored to perfection. Looking indifferent, he exuded a very strong and expensive aura.
Felicity was stunned by his breathtaking handsomeness; her mind that was shrouded in a drunk haze, suddenly felt alive with energy.
Pulling her lips into a charming smile she looked at the man and said, "Hey handsome! If you don't mind, let me borrow you for a bit."
He raised one of his dark eyebrows, about to speak.
Without waiting for his answer, Felicity suddenly hooked her arm into his and dragged him towards the room where the reunion was in progress.
The door of the room was opened suddenly with a noise.
Inside, Anne, Mia, Susan, and their boyfriends looked around at the noise.
Seeing that it was Felicity, Anne immediately said in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, we thought you ran away. How come you are back?"
Felicity looked at her coldly and said with a smile, "Who said I ran away? I just went out to bring my boyfriend in. This is my boyfriend! He's late because he was busy at work." Anne looked at Felicity, stumped for words.
Susan, Mia and the others were also left frozen in their places.
They all turned their attention towards the man standing beside Felicity.
His noble posture, exquisite face and above all his aura that left everyone blinded... How can a man as handsome as him be Felicity's boyfriend?
"Impossible...!"
Anne couldn't help herself from saying.
"What's impossible? Only you guys are allowed to have boyfriends? I can't have one?"
Felicity raised her chin confidently as she finished speaking.
She didn't forget to hook her arm even more with him, getting even closer.
His expressions did not change as he lowered his eyes slightly and glanced sideways at her.
With long hair and delicate facial features, she was indeed a beauty. When she spoke, she gave off an indomitable aura.
Her cheeks are blushing pink; there is a faint smell of wine coming from her. She looks quite drunk.
From the conversation, he vaguely understood what was going on.
His eyes flashed with interest. He did not deny what Felicity had just said; instead, he put his arm comfortably around her waist and said, "Hello, I'm Jason Reed, Felicity's boyfriend." At the sudden contact from him, Felicity froze.
She struggled subconsciously to remove his hand from her waist, but she was no match for his strength.
She couldn't help but stare at him, angry and embarrassed.
Jason, however, was smiling calmly, as if he couldn't see her expressions.
Anne and other's eyes were full of jealousy after hearing his declaration.
Such a handsome and sexy man... Why is he Felicity's boyfriend?
In the middle of all the jealousy and anger, a figure suddenly rushed into the room.
It was Garrett Smith, Jason's assistant!
He was shocked to see his boss suddenly being pulled into a room by a stranger.
After a moment he realized he should check to see what happened. He came in and asked, "Boss, what happened? Are you alright?"
Hearing him, Jason Reed shook his head and motioned him to leave.
Garrett looked confused. He subconsciously looked around at the people in the room, and then looked at the woman with his boss's hand around her waist. He has no idea what was going on. However, he did not dare to disobey the order and withdrew quietly from the room.
As soon as Garrett left, Anne's fiancé Quinn laughed out loud, "Boss? Wow! That didn't add up. Did you just find this man outside and begged him to act as your boyfriend? Or is he an escort?" Anne eyes widened in realization, "Hah! Is that what this is, Felicity? Did you call an escort just to prove? Are you that thirsty?"
Next to her, Mia and Susan also agreed with a sneer, "If you are so short of men, we can introduce one to you. You don't have to act this low!"
Although Felicity is drunk, her consciousness is still clear; their words hit her hard.
She really didn't know who this man was at all; when she saw that he was handsome, she just pulled him in without thinking.
She didn't expect that this person could be an escort!
Are escorts this well-mannered and expensive-looking?
She just thought he was a rich guy!
Felicity was a little annoyed, but she maintained her calm face and said, "Are you writing a novel? Making up stuff!"
Anne felt insulted and embarrassed; to hide her feelings she turned to Jason and said mockingly, "Well! Felicity's boyfriend! Now that you are here, join us and have a drink." Jason saw through her and a playful smile appeared on his face as he said, "Sure!"
He walked over with Felicity in his arms and sat down with her.
Anne gave her fiancé a meaningful look and winked.
Knowing what she meant. Quinn immediately poured a drink for Jason, "Boss! Is this one okay? Can you drink it straight?"
Jason glanced at the glass in front of him and said, "I don't drink cheap alcohol. I need something better..."
Saying this, he turned to the waiter standing near the door and said, "Bring some bottles of your most expensive whisky and your best red wine."
The waiter nodded attentively, "Sure, Sir!"
The waiter then moved to go out.
Quinn said in a mocking tone, "Are you really an escort here? Trying to get us to buy wine?"
