Chapter 173 Former Crush

Chapter 173 Former Crush

At nine o'clock that night, Lachlan arrived at the Golden Family Hotel. Mason was the owner of this hotel and had no relation to the Lowe family.

Mason, along with his trusted associates Dennis and Jeremy, were waiting at the entrance for Lachlan!

"Brother-in-law!"

"Mr. Willis!"

They shouted in unison upon seeing Lachlan.

"Brother-in-law, how do you like this hotel? Do you like it?"

Mason asked as he put his arm around Lachlan’s shoulder.

“It's not bad. It's pretty good.” Lachlan nodded in agreement.

"Well then, I'm giving this hotel to you! From now on, you're the boss here!"

Mason laughed heartily and waved his hand as he spoke.

Lachlan was stunned by these words. "Giving it to me? I don't want it! I don't have time to manage it nor do I know how to manage it."

"Hah! Do you need to manage it yourself? Just wait for money from your manager here!"

“I don't care. You must accept it! Otherwise... otherwise I'll tell my sister that you secretly went for a massage in those places!" Mason said without hesitation.

"You little brat, why are you so mean?" Lachlan laughed and scolded him while shaking his head helplessly. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Hahaha..." Mason grinned widely, laughing heartily a few times, and draped his arm around Lachlan's shoulder as they walked into the hotel.

Upon arriving at the spacious top-floor VIP room, they found over thirty people already gathered, seated at five separate tables.

Each person present was a leader under Mason's command.

Some still had bandages and gauze wrapped around them, revealing the intense clashes from the previous night.

"Mr. Willis!"

"Mr. Willis!"

As soon as Lachlan walked in, everyone stood up promptly shouting out loud together.

"It's okay everyone sit down..."

Lachlan waved his hand but couldn't help but sweat profusely under such an imposing manner.

Next, Mason pulled Lachlan to the middle table.

Despite their injuries, all of Mason's subordinates present came forward one by one to raise a toast to Lachlan.

Lachlan didn't refuse any drink offered since he knew he wouldn't get drunk anyway!

After the dishes went through a variety of flavors and the alcohol had been consumed for three rounds, Lachlan informed Mason that he intended to leave.

He couldn't possibly leave Nora alone at home for too long.

Coming here to make an appearance, having a few rounds of drinks with these people, was sufficient.

As Lachlan took the elevator and arrived at the lobby on the first floor, he heard a cry of surprise!

“Lachlan? Is that you?" He turned around and saw a beautiful girl looking at him with surprise.

She wore a short-sleeved shirt on top and tight-fitting jeans below, showing off her curvy figure. She emitted an aura of youthfulness and beauty that made Lachlan feel like he was back in high school again. The girl was none other than Allison Singleton, Lachlan’s classmate from high school who was also known as the school's beauty queen. Back then, countless boys had crushes on her, including Lachlan himself.

He met Claudia in college, and later it was Claudia who took the initiative to pursue Lachlan, leading to the formation of a somewhat fateful relationship.

Before that, in Lachlan's heart, the shadow of Allison during their innocent days was present.

"Allison? What a coincidence!" Lachlan exclaimed happily upon seeing her again after so long.

Allison rolled her eyes at him and said sarcastically, "What coincidence? Your pick-up lines are so lame."

"Pick-up lines?" Lachlan looked confused for a moment before realizing what she meant.

Seeing his reaction, Allison wondered, "Weren't you here for the class reunion? I just finished work and came late; why are you still here?" "Class reunion? No, not me! I just finished dinner with someone and was about to leave..."

Lachlan shook his head.

"Allison? Why show up so late!? Everyone is waiting for you. Without you, Gavin didn't even start serving the dishes!"

At this moment, another girl emerged from the elevator.

Upon seeing Allison, she teasingly remarked, "Oh? You're... Lachlan? Why are you here too? I don't remember inviting you."

This girl was Freya Miller, also a high school classmate of Lachlan's. However, back in their school days, she always looked down on Lachlan.

In fact, during those years, most of their classmates had a low opinion of Lachlan.

When Lachlan’s parents mysteriously disappeared in Lucoork West at his age of 18, his source of income and living expenses vanished. To earn tuition and living expenses, Lachlan did odd jobs for other students at school, such as laundry, cleaning, and running errands. He even washed underwear, smelly shoes, and socks for some male classmates.

This caused many students to look down on Lachlan, viewing him with disdain. However, there were a few exceptions, and Allison was one of them. At that time, she not only didn't look down on Lachlan but also frequently bought meals for him.

There were even rumors in school that Allison had a crush on Lachlan. But at that time, Lachlan was very insecure. Although he secretly liked Allison too, he didn't have the courage to show it.

"Gavin might have overlooked it! Lachlan, since we're classmates, let's go up together. It's not easy for so many classmates to gather after all these years!" Allison warmly invited, looking at Lachlan with eyes full of anticipation.

It seemed she really didn't want Lachlan to leave just like that.

"Well... okay!

Lachlan hesitated for a moment, feeling the warmth in Allison's eyes. It was hard to reject with those enthusiastic eyes.

“Let's go then!"

Allison immediately smiled with joy, waving to Lachlan.

The three of them got into the elevator together but Freya whispered into Allison's ear, "Allison why did you invite this poor boy? You know Gavin doesn't like him; he used to beat up this poor guy in school.” “That was years ago; we are all classmates now so let's just enjoy ourselves," replied Allison with a smile.

Gavin Spence was known as a rich second-generation student whose family owned a rice noodles factory. He walked around campus like he owned it and used to be one of Allision’s suitors back then.

But since she often bought meals for Lachlan, people started saying that she had feelings for this poor boy which made Gavin dislike him even more.

He would often gather some troublemakers from school to harass or beat up Lachlan including trapping him inside restrooms sometimes. "Oh? Is Gavin organizing this class reunion?"

Although the two girls lowered their voices, Lachlan's ears picked up every word clearly.

“Yeah, it's organized by Gavin! What's wrong, Lachlan? Are you scared?"

"I advise you not to go up there, or else Gavin will beat you again later!" Freya taunted.

Allison heard this and furrowed her brows. "No way? We're all classmates, and we haven't seen each other in so many years. Gavin won't make things difficult for Lachlan, right?"

"How could he not?" Freya replied.

"Allison, don't you know that Gavin still has a crush on you? He just told everyone earlier that you were the first girl he ever had a crush on. If you're not there, he won't even let us serve the food. Do you think Gavin will have any good thoughts when he sees Lachlan going up with us?"

As she spoke, Freya glanced at Lachlan and sneered, "And now it's different from when we were in school. Gavin's family is really something now - they've opened factories around neighboring counties and cities - truly rich and powerful! When we were in school, being considered his rival would only result in him beating us up a bit; but now it's like playing games to kill someone like us! Lachlan, don't you agree?"

After hearing this statement from Freya, Lachlan responded with an "Oh?" before saying, "Really? I'm already married. If he likes Allison then I won't compete with him for her affection.”

Upon hearing this response from Lachlan, Allison flashed a hint of sadness through her beautiful eyes.

He... he'd already married?

Immediately after showing concern on her face, she turned to speak to Lachlan, "Lachlan... how about... you don't go anymore! Let's exchange contact information instead, and meet separately another time. This class reunion party, you shouldn't attend..."
