Chapter 827
Everyone turned toward the source of the voice, only to see Tatiana standing up gracefully from the women's table, her face full of pride.
Knox's jaw dropped in shock. "Tianna, have you lost it? Do you even know what you're saying?"
Galileo nodded vigorously. "Yeah, Tianna, what kind of nonsense are you spouting? A hundred billion? Even as scrap paper, that would pile up into a mountain!"
"Who's joking with you? Don't measure Jack's stature with your narrow minds, alright? Take a good look at yourselves!"
Tatiana couldn't stand Galileo. He was a terrible student, always stirring up trouble, then running away when things got tough. The Lycan family always had to clean up after him. Shameless, thick-skinned-that was what he was.
And Knox wasn't any better. Tatiana disliked him just as much.
She walked up to Jack and draped an arm over his shoulder.
"Alright. Listen up, folks! Let me properly introduce Jack to you. This is the new generation's business leader. He's the founder of Genesis Games—Jack Holland.
"Open your eyes wide, and take a good look. Next time, think twice before running your mouth. It'll just make you look dumb. Got it?"
As she introduced Jack, Tatiana's face lit up with pride. To her, being his cousin was something to boast about.
Originally, she hadn't planned to reveal Jack's identity. But seeing how these peers were mocking him, she couldn't stand it anymore. She didn't want him to think that all family members were as narrow-minded and shortsighted as those before him.
So, finally, she stepped up to defend him.
The table fell silent for a moment, then erupted into laughter.
Knox clutched his stomach, howling. "Did you hear that? She says this guy is a new-generation business leader. Do you believe it? I certainly don't."
Galileo burst into laughter as well.
"Jack, I don't buy it either. Tianna, are you serious? Since when can just anyone call themselves a business leader? And you're saying he's the founder of Genesis Games?"
The others saw them laugh and followed suit, grinning foolishly.
Knox even slapped the table and spoke. "Oh, Galileo, haven't you always been into Genesis Games? You love their games, right? Then tell Tatiana who's the founder of Genesis Games, and what's his name?"
Galileo answered without hesitation. "Alright, Tianna, listen up. The founder of Genesis Games is Jack Holland, a top graduate from Alnewgo University—"
A sharp slap cut him off. Knox's eyes widened in fury as he roared, "What did you just say? What's the founder's name?" Chapters first released on FindN()vel.net
"J-Jack Holland... Knox, why'd you hit me?" Galileo rubbed his head, feeling aggrieved, wanting to cry but too scared to do so.
He had no memory of ever meeting Jack before today-no one had any idea the man standing right in front of them was Jack.
Knox stared wide-eyed at Jack, speechless for a long time.
The others at the table, who had been laughing moments ago, suddenly tensed up at Knox's
reaction. Their smiles vanished as they exchanged uneasy glances the uneasy-glances, atmosphere turning strange.
Meanwhile, Tatiana leaned playfully on Jack's shoulder and spoke sweetly. "See, Knox? I wasn't lying. The founder Galileo just mentioned is standing right in front
of you.
"Jack kept quiet because he wanted to see how long it'd take you to figure it out: Oh, well... Knox, you do have a lot of money, but compared to him? Let's just say there's a tiny gap just two zeros! Your fortune is barely one percent of his."
Knox continued to stare at Jack, muttering under his breath, "No way... That's impossible. How can this be?"
He had always believed he was the best the Lycan family had seen in years, maybe even better than Maverick.
