Chapter 284 I’ll Let You Win This Time
Not far from the hotel, Caspian and Willow were riding on bicycles. They soon stopped outside
the hotel.
“Hubby! How did such an expensive car like that break down? I’m so pissed!” Willow said with
a pout.
“I didn’t expect it either. I’ll get someone to check the car before I leave the house next time, Caspian replied.
They had been driving to the hotel, but halfway there, their car suddenly had some issues.
Caspian had no choice but to get Sylvia to fix the car. In order not to be late for the gathering, he and Willow each bought a bike and rode to the hotel. Fortunately, the hotel wasn’t too far
from where their car had broken downL.
After Willow entered the hotel, she said somewhat embarrassedly to her classmates, “I’m
sorry. Our car broke down on the way, so we’re a bit late.”

Caspian followed closely behind Willow and walked in as well.
When they saw Caspian and Willow, many couldn’t help but smile with disdain.
All the others had achieved success in their careers, and almost everyone had a car. Yet, Caspian and Willow came to the gathering riding bikes.
It was truly unexpected.
However, Willow’s makeup was exquisite today, leaving everyone amazed.
The presence of a beautiful woman shifted the mood in the lobby.
The moment Fritz saw Willow, his gaze remained fixed on her.
He had already begun imagining the scene of Willow moaning beneath him..
Several guys also stared at Willow without blinking.
As for the women, they seemed somewhat unhappy. The moment Willow appeared, they all paled in comparison.
“Willow, Fritz just returned from overseas and invited us to this fancy hotel for dinner. If you were just late, it would’ve been fine. But you came here on a bike and not even in a car?
“Some of our classmates said your wedding was grand, but it just sounds like nonsense to me right now,” a woman with seductive looks swayed her b*dy as she said disdainfully.
The other classmates couldn’t help but chuckle.

Willow was momentarily stunned. The woman who spoke was called Kelsie Poole. They were in the same class back then.
However, Kelsie had always been overshadowed by Willow, so their relationship was quite
tense.
“There was a problem with our car when we were on the road, so that delayed us for a bit,” Willow quickly explained.
“Stop talking nonsense here. Do you really think you look like someone who owns a car? Look at yourself now. And as for your useless husband, he doesn’t seem like he can afford a car either!” Kelsie mocked.
At this moment, the people around them also started laughing.
Willow frowned slightly. Kelsie was indeed taking things a bit too far. Willow had always been targeted by her in the past.
Although she was annoyed, she couldn’t find the right words to retort to Kelsie at that
moment.
“Apologize to my wife right now!” Caspian took two steps forward as he spoke fiercely.
“What? Apologize? What are you on about?” Kelsie continued to laugh. “You’re Willow’s husband, right? I heard you’re a good–for–nothing!”
Now, everyone’s attention fell on Caspian.
Caspian looked handsome and refined. He was definitely as good–looking as models, but unfortunately, he was dressed quite plainly.
The gazes from the others were not friendly.
Only two or three people nodded at Caspian with smiles on their faces. They had attended Caspian and Willow’s wedding, and they would forever remember the scene.
“Apologize to my wife right now. I don’t like repeating my words,” Caspian said coldly.
“Apologize? Not a chance! You good–for–nothing, you’re just a parasite. Why should I apologize…” Kelsie said disdainfully.
Suddenly, a crisp sound echoed as Caspian raised his hand to give Kelsie a slap.
Instantly, everyone was flabbergasted!
They didn’t expect that Caspian would react physically.
Fritz was also extremely surprised. He was startled by Caspian’s sudden reaction and thought
he seemed a bit full of himself.

“How dare you hit me? You useless piece of trash! You’re nothing more than a parasite! How dare you lay a hand on me? I won’t let this slide easily!” Kelsie yelled while rubbing her sore cheek, utterly infuriated.
Waving her hands, she ran toward Caspian.
“If that wasn’t enough for you, I can teach you a real lesson!” Caspian said with a cold gaze, making Kelsie freeze in place.
She believed that Caspian was just bluffing, but she couldn’t take a step forward.
Then, Kelsie clung to Fritz’s arm and coquettishly said, “Fritz, you have to help me! He’s bullying me!”
Looking at Kelsie’s flirtatious display, Fritz couldn’t help but feel disgusted.
During this time, Kelsie had been shooting him flirtatious glances. Fritz wasn’t oblivious to her intentions.
But he had zero interest in Kelsie. He only had his eyes on Willow.
Even so, there wasn’t much Fritz could do in front of so many people. He could only step forward and say, “Hello, I’m Fritz, Willow’s high school classmate. I just returned from studying overseas and now work for a famous company in Southlake City.
“Please do me a favor and don’t make a big deal out of this.”
However, Caspian was not buying it.
“Who do you think you are? You’re just someone who studied abroad and gets bedazzled by anything foreign. What gives you the right to be so arrogant?” Caspian said angrily.
The more he spoke, the angrier he became. This was a common occurrence in Diatoran.
Many students who graduated from prestigious universities overseas would choose to live abroad and serve another country.
Fritz was dumbfounded by what he heard.
How could Caspian be so arrogant and even insult him?
However, he wanted to leave a good impression in front of his former classmates, so he didn’t lose his temper.
Fritz adjusted his attitude and smiled at Willow, saying, “Willow, why is your husband so arrogant? I spoke to him kindly, but he shot back with insults.
“We were classmates before, and if it weren’t for your sake, I wouldn’t let this go so easily.”
Caspian frowned, wanting to say something more, but Willow patted his back.

He could only remain silent for Willow’s sake.
Anyone could disparage him, but no one could disparage his wife.
“Fritz, since you’ve said so, let’s just move past this. We’re here for a reunion, so let’s keep our spirits up,” Willow said with a smile.
Hearing Willow speak up, a smug smile appeared on Fritz’s face.
It seemed he still had some influence, seeing as Willow was willing to listen to him.
“Everyone is here. Let’s go inside,” Fritz cheerfully said.
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
“It’s my first time eating at a five–star hotel!”
“I’m definitely going to eat a lot later.”
The group followed Fritz as they made their way to the dining area.
Looking at Fritz’s triumphant expression, Caspian sneered disdainfully.
He and Willow walked at the back.
“Willow, are these your high school classmates? They seem even more uncivilized than your college classmates!” Caspian said to Willow, who was walking by his side.
Willow hadn’t expected her high school classmates to turn out like this either.
