At that moment.
Hotel bathroom.
Lionel Yeager walked out of the bathroom, intending to go to the make-up room.
But just as he did, a voice came from behind him.
"Hey, handsome guy in front of me, wait a moment!"
At the sound of the voice, Lionel's gaze shifted, and he turned around to look.
There, in the distance, were two women in heavily painted dresses - Anna and Alma Lewis.
"It's you?!"
Upon seeing Lionel, Alma's face turned particularly ugly.
Since today, Lionel was wearing a tailor-made black suit, looking slim and upright, and even got a new hairstyle. From behind, he looked like a model.
So, Alma didn't recognize him at first and just wanted to strike up a conversation.
Ever since her sister got engaged to Young Master Weil, she had been envious and jealous, wanting to hook up with a young master from a large family as well.
But she didn't expect that the one she tried to strike up a conversation with was the very same country bumpkin from three days ago.
Especially since three days ago, she was slapped by this poor guy, which made her hate him even more.
Anna was also surprised that this fellow could actually look like a decent person after a little grooming.
However, even if he looked more decent, without power or influence, he was still nothing.
Lionel's face darkened, and he asked, "What's the matter?"
He really didn't want to have any further dealings with these two women.
"What is a country bumpkin like you doing here?"
Alma asked coldly.
Lionel replied, "Where I am doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, does it?"
With her hands on her hips, Alma scoffed, "Country bumpkin, is this the place for you?
Today is Miss Stewart's engagement day, and everyone here is a powerful and influential figure. What are you, and how dare you show your face here?"
Anna crossed her arms over her chest, sneering, "Lionel, do you really think you are a friend to Miss Stewart?
Although I don't know how you met Miss Stewart, I want to tell you one thing: you and Miss Stewart are not from the same world!
So, don't even think about climbing up the Stewart family. The Stewart family is not something you can climb up to!"
Lionel chuckled coldly, "Who exactly wants to climb up the Stewart family?
I think the real ones wanting to climb up the Stewart family are you, isn't it?"
"You bastard, what are you saying!"
Alma glared at Lionel, wishing she could tear him to pieces.
Anna was also shaking with anger.
After all, what Lionel said was true.
Their Lewis family was indeed trying to build a closer relationship with the Stewart family.
But now, having it directly pointed out by Lionel made them very upset.
Without paying further attention to the two of them, Lionel turned around, preparing to leave.
"You, stop right there!"
Anna shrieked.
"What's the matter?"
Lionel looked back coldly, sweeping his eyes over the two. "Do you want another beating?"
Hearing Lionel's words and seeing his gaze, the two were frightened and took a few steps back.
"Idiot."
With a snort, Lionel walked away.
"Bastard! Son of a bitch! You won't have a good death!"
