The Genius Ex-Wife’s Revenge Portfolio novel Chapter 821

The receptionist gave her an apologetic smile. “I’m really sorry, but our private club has strict rules. We have to follow them. Please don’t make things harder for us.”

Just then, a familiar voice called out, “Lilly.”

She turned and saw Lucas walking up. He had changed into a casual polo shirt, clearly ready for golf, and he’d pulled up in his bright red Ferrari, as usual.

Lucas grinned at her. “Here to see William? What a coincidence. He invited me for a round today. But it looks like you can’t even get inside. Maybe if you ask nicely, I’ll take you in as my guest.”

Lilly glared at him. “Don’t get so full of yourself, Lucas.”

He just smirked. “Can’t help it, Lilly. And trust me, I’m just getting started. You’ll see.”

The threat in his voice was clear.

At that moment, William’s assistant appeared at the door. “Mr. Matthis, welcome. Please come in. He is waiting for you.”

Lucas shot Lilly a look, his smile smug. “See that? I’m heading in. Last chance, Lilly. Want to ask me for help?”

She rolled her eyes. “Dream on.”

Lucas laughed. “You will, sooner or later. I’ll be waiting.”

With that, he strolled inside, leaving Lilly fuming at the entrance. She had no way to see William now, and it was driving her crazy. What was she supposed to do?

Frustrated, she pulled out her phone and started dialing Alice, hoping she might have an idea.

Inside, Lucas found William waiting.

“William, good to see you,” Lucas said, shaking his hand.

“Who is it? Do I know him?” he asked.

William smiled. “My friend is Jason Farill, the founder of JY Tech.”

Lucas’s eyebrows shot up. JY Tech? Of course he’d heard of them. That tech company had only been around for three years, but their growth was insane. They went public in New York two years ago, and their value kept doubling. Everyone in the business world talked about them.

But nobody really knew much about their founder. Jason was almost a myth. No one had seen his face, just his name in headlines.

Jason? Lucas repeated the name in his mind. He’d never met the guy, and he was surprised he and William were so close.

William leaned in a little, his tone fond. “Mr. Farill and I met overseas. I ran into some trouble back then, and he was the one who got me out of it. He’s tough, honestly, and I respect that. Plus, he’s a genius when it comes to business. We became best friends after that. I asked him to come play a round with us today.”

He checked his watch and looked toward the door. “He should be here any minute now.”
