There was a generation gap between him and kids these days. He had no idea what they were
thinking.
“Hey, hold up. Did I say you could leave?” Melody put her hands on her hips and pointed at Philip with
a huff.
Philip had barely turned when a few young men and women poured out of the mansion. They were all
dressed to the nines and clearly came from wealthy backgrounds.
When they saw Melody, all of them beamed and waved at her. “Hey, Melody! We were waiting for you.
Where did you go? You said you went to pick up a friend, right? Where are they? Introduce them to us.”
“Anyone the great Miss Zander calls a friend must be impressive indeed.”
“He’s not your boyfriend, is he? That would break poor Master Finn’s heart.”
They spoke over each other, their arms over each other’s shoulders as they joked and laughed. They
were the very picture of youthful energy.
Melody glared at the boy with the baseball cap and blonde close crop. She berated him, “Frederick
Kelly, could you lay off it already? You always have the most to say.”
The boy with the blonde close crop shrugged and stuck out his tongue, looking completely unaffected.
Next to him, there was a boy with a white shirt and two buttons undone to show how wild and free he
was. He had slightly long, K-pop style silky hair. His features were well-defined, and he looked both
handsome and energetic.
He also wore a pair of simple ankle-length black slacks. Anyone could tell at a glance that they were
not cheap.
On his feet, he wore fashionable white sports shoes that emphasized his youthful vigor.
As for his watch, it was a Cartier worth several hundred thousand!
It had to be said that this young man was quite dashing, but it was also quite obvious that he came
from money.
At the same time, he was staring at Melody, his love for her obvious in his eyes. With a smile, he said,
“Welcome back, Mel. Where’s your friend?”
He did not seem very confident when he was talking to Melody, so he quickly changed the subject.
That was when the rest of them finally began to notice Philip.
The problem was that he was just dressed too shabbily. To these rich heirs and heiresses, he barely
registered on their radar.
At first, they all just assumed he was a member of the manor staff in charge of collecting the trash.
It was only when they saw that Melody was staring at him that they understood.
“What the f*ck, seriously? Is he the friend you mentioned, Melody? This peasant?”
The boy with the blonde close crop laughed out loud and walked around Philip a few times, saying,
“Hey, bro! Are you a garbage collector?”
As soon as he said that, the others began giggling.
“Don’t say that, Fred. Don’t you know the really rich people these days like to act poor? It’s a trend
amongst them.” One of the sexy-looking girls crossed her arms in front of her chest and turned up her
nose.
Frederick snorted with laughter and pointed at Philip condescendingly. “Him, rich? What a joke.”
As he said that, he turned to look at Melody and asked with a smile, “Melody, is he really the friend you
brought over?”
Melody nodded, unmoved, and then looked at Philip calmly. “Hey, introduce yourself to them. After that,
we’re going to Dragonstone Mountain for a race.”
A race?
Philip looked completely out of the loop. He said helplessly, “Sorry, but I have something to do, so I
think I’ll leave now. You guys have fun.”
What was the matter with this Melody Zander?
Was this how Theo raised his daughter?
All of a sudden!
Someone yelled at Philip coldly from behind him.
“Stand right there! Who said you could leave?” Finn barked at him, his expression frosty.
He really did not like the way Philip treated Melody.
Even Finn himself did not dare to treat Melody so nonchalantly. What right did this peasant have to give
Melody the cold shoulder?
He was asking for a beating!
Finn walked over and looked at Philip coldly, saying, “Hey, what was with your attitude just now?
Melody told you to introduce yourself, so how could you just walk away?”
There was another reason why Finn was so upset with Philip, and that was the fact that Melody had
personally gone to pick him up. Was there something between the two of them?
To Finn, Philip was now something of a love rival.
Still, the guy just reeked of poverty. Everything about it was low and tawdry.
Philip looked at Finn calmly and said, “Sorry, but I have nothing to discuss with clueless kids like you. I
don’t know her, either. If you’re trying to show off in front of her, then you got the wrong guy. I’m just a
normal person, so I’ll get out of your way now.”
With that, Philip turned and made to leave.
However, this time it was Frederick who ran to him with a hint of a smile. He stood in Philip’s way and
taunted him, saying, “Don’t be in such a rush, man. Stay and play. Since Melody’s already brought you
here, we can’t just let you leave. That would be so rude of us.”
As Frederick said that, he gestured at Finn with his eyebrows.
The two of them had grown up together, so they could read each other’s thoughts quite easily.
They were thinking of playing a nice little game with Philip.
Melody watched everything unfold, looking detached. She had no intention of helping. She just wanted
to see what was so special about this Mr. Clarke, the man her father talked about.
It seemed to her that he was just another ordinary guy.
She seriously did not know what her father was thinking. Why did he tell her to get on his good side?
How disgusting!
At the same time, Wynn had arrived at the bank and was standing in front of an ATM, ready to see how
much money there was in the card Philip had given her.
She put the card into the machine and entered the PIN.
He had told her that the PIN was her birthday, and that did make Wynn quite happy.
Next, she tapped on ‘Check account balance’…
