Chapter 757

The nearby landscape facilities were complete for a five-star hotel.

The two walked slightly apart, keeping silent the entire time.

Jack finally said, "I remember you. You often came to our place to play."

He was lowering his pride with this conversation opener, attempting to draw their distance closer. It was purely out of courtesy to Wilhelmina. He thought even if Wilhelmina didn't like him, she would at least go through the motions out of respect for their parents and their long-standing ties between their families.

However, Wilhelmina didn't immediately answer him. She glanced at him briefly. Then, she said coldly, "Nothing can ever happen between us." For more chapters visit Find1Novel.net

Her eyes were cold and even carried a hint of contempt.

Jack was taken aback. He didn't rush to retort, but instead, he asked in surprise, "Why?"

"We're people of two different worlds."

Wilhelmina didn't hold back as she continued, "It's not only about family wealth, but also about the environments we grew up in and the education we received. We're shaped differently and have nothing in common."

Then, she didn't even look at Jack's slightly cold expression and added, "My parents told me Mr. and Mrs. Lycan recently reunited with you. I heard you grew up in a poor environment."

Seeing the trace of mockery on Wilhelmina's face, Jack instead grew curious about what more this overly confident girl, who had never lifted a finger in her life, would say. So, he nodded and said, "Yes, I did."

"I knew it." Wilhelmina sighed and said gently, "I think you were pretty young at that time, thinking that getting into a university was the pinnacle of your life, right? If I guessed it correctly, you must have been giddy when you discovered you're a Lycan, that your life story has been rewritten, huh?"

Jack squandering eight million dollars on a worthless stone last night was the most evident proof.

Jack wanted to say something, but Wilhelmina did not let him. She said, "Don't even try to defend yourself. Oh, and your little Drakengard Games? Frankly, I've never heard it before."

Sensing the condescension laced with Wilhelmina's words, Jack nearly laughed out loud.

Wilhelmina added, "I'm currently studying at Oxfard University, and I serve as the Deputy CEO of Zenith Capital. Unless you can surpass me on your own without relying on the Lycans, you're not qualified to be my husband."

Wilhelmina wanted Jack to know how influential Zenith Capital was, so she added, "Zenith Capital is one of the top private equity firms in the country, managing assets worth 30 billion dollars. Only when you can rise to such heights

or surpass me will you have the right to pursue me."

The conversation had reached a point where neither party had any way of sustaining it.

Jack lightly responded, "Whether to pursue you isn't a decision you and I can make. It requires both of our parents' approvals."

Although he didn't feel much for Wilhelmina, he said this to anger the arrogant girl.

As for Zenith Capital, would Jack even spare a glance at it? Although Genesis Games had a market value of slightly over 10 billion dollars and could not be compared to Zenith Capital, Jack still possessed Haven Net, which was rapidly growing with 700 million users. It was as massive as social media platforms like Facebook and TikTok.

In front of Haven Net, Zenith Capital was nothing more than a joke.

As expected, a tinge of anger flickered across Wilhelmina's face when she heard Jack mention that it was their parents' decision.

She scoffed and asked, "What age are we living in now? I can't believe you still care about childhood betrothals. How childish!"

After saying that, she swatted her hand and left in the opposite direction without looking at Jack again.
