Chapter 1022
Those words made Lydia’s eyes practically bulge out of her head.
She quickly exchanged bewildered looks with her teammates.
Every single one of them was now looking at Adrian as if he were completely insane.
Was this guy suffering from brain damage?
The man their Captain loved?
The man their Captain loved was Nicholas Blackwood!
Every one of them had seen Nicholas with their own eyes.
That was the Captain’s actual fiancé.
In terms of looks, character, and sheer devotion to their Captain.
What exactly did this lunatic have that could even hold a candle to Nicholas?
Comparing the two was like comparing dirt to the sky.
No, scratch that there was absolutely zero comparison to be made.
This psycho really had a gift for making people sick to their stomachs.
“Hahaha!” Lydia couldn’t hold it in and burst out laughing, rolling her eyes dramatically at him. “You look incredibly average, but you sure do have a vivid imagination p>
“A lunatic like you actually dares to fantasize about our Captain? Get out of the way! Don’t make us call security to drag you out p>
Being repeatedly chewed out by this broke student was pushing Adrian over the edge.
His expression grew exceptionally ugly as he turned sharply to Serena. “Serena, are you really just going to let your teammate insult me like this p>
“Is this the kind of social circle you keep now p>
“I guess it’s true what they say—if you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas. Hanging out with a bunch of impoverished nobodies has completely stripped you of whatever class you had p>
Caleb and the others bristled, their faces darkening as they glared fiercely at him.
Because Adrian had openly attacked her teammates, Serena casually raised her hand, pulling Lydia behind her.
She lazily lifted her gaze, fixing him with eyes like ice.
“I actually think my teammate is spot on p>
“You look incredibly average, but you have a very vivid imagination p>
Her red lips curved up into a smirk, her eyes swimming with mocking amusement. “The man I love p>
“Adrian, you are nothing but a Trash Ex I picked up when I was legally blind p>
“Oh wait, you don’t even qualify as an ex p>
“At best, you’re A Joke p>
Adrian’s face visibly stiffened, his brows locking together tightly.
It was as if he couldn’t process the fact that Serena was actually speaking to him
this way.
Serena scoffed, the mockery in her
eyes sharpening. “What’s the
matter? Now that the Wynn family is
bankrupt and Hailey Wynn, thạt supposed real heiress, no longer useful to you, you just dumped your beloved fiancée p>
“Is Mr. Cole just incredibly practical, or do you view yourself as A Transactional Tool p>
She was essentially calling him a high-end escort.
And wasn’t that exactly what he was?
Whoever had value, he clung to.
The moment they lost that value, he bolted faster than anyone else.
The biting sarcasm caused Adrian’s expression to shift violently.
The Wynn family’s bankruptcy.
The Cole family had severed ties faster than lightning.
In Vaelion City’s elite circles, it had been a source of quiet mockery for a long time.
In fact, because the Cole family pulled out so abruptly, they had lost several crucial business deals.
The reasoning within the inner circle was simple.
If the Cole family could be that ruthless to in-laws they had a twenty-year
engagement agreement with.
It showed exactly how cold-blooded they truly were.
Partnering with a family like that meant risking being eaten alive the second things went south.
It was precisely because of that PR
disaster that Old Mr. Cole had flown
into a rage and shipped him.
overseas.
The Wynn family’s downfall had always been a thorn in his side.
Adrian’s eyes darkened, and he suddenly let out a low chuckle. “Serena, you really are jealous p>
“I know you’re still blaming me for choosing Hailey over you back then p>
His lips curled into a smile, his tone thick with unwavering certainty. “If you had just told me earlier that you rode motorcycles and possessed such teredible computer skill could I have ever let Hailey deceive me into giving you up p>
