Salute to the General novel Chapter 1624

On the other hand, Milton was still unaware of the reality of the situation, and he smirked once more as he passed his flamboyant-looking cigarette around in the crowd of people standing beside him. Giving Kylie a pretentious frown, he said, “Kylie, why is your boyfriend like this? He's so poor that he smokes those shady, brandless cigarettes. You're embarrassed by him!”

Nathan remained dispassionate as he heard those words, but Kylie completely lost her calm.

Upon seeing Kylie's face redden in rage, Mavis quickly interjected and said, “Hah... Mr. Hayes, most of us are just average compared to you. I mean... Mr. Hayes, you're much richer and more successful than us. Oh, you must share some of your classy cigarettes and wine with us old classmates!”

Milton was extremely pleased to hearthose words. “Hah... Of course.”

As he basked in his whimsical glory, he smiled pompously at Nathan and said, “Nathan, oh, Nathan. I don't like to be too critical of others but look at you. What kind of trash are you even smoking? Do you really think that you deserve Kylie? Let me give you a word of advice. Just stay away from her as you're unworthy.”

Nathan pursed his lips. Smoking his Commander-exclusive Cigarettes, he said, “So who's deserving of her?”

Hah! Just as I expectedUt seems like this guy is self-conscious too.

Milton pointed at himself without hesitation and declared, “Me!”

Raising his eyebrows and his head in an ugly angle, he continued, “If you want to talk about money, the Hayes family asset is worth more than a hundred billion. Speaking about social influence, Timothy Carter, Brimmopolis¹ chief of police, calls me his brother! You can say that I am an impeccable man. I deserve to be with Kylie more than anyone!”

After making those jarring statements, he came up closer to Kylie and said tenderly, “Kylie, I've been in love with you since our college days. For the past few years, you've always taken up an irreplaceable spot in my heart. Fate has brought us together once more. I know that you are the one for me. Oh, Kylie, you should break up with him. With me as your boyfriend, you'll have all the riches you desire. Isn't that better than staying with this poor, mediocre man?”

Everyone at the scene was stunned.

Though they knew that Milton used to have feelings for Kylie, they did not expect him to hold onto them for that long, nor did they see a sudden confession coming.

Will Kylie choose Milton over her current boyfriend?

For the bystanders, that was the only thing they had in mind. The situation was becoming rather entertaining to watch.

Just as Kylie was about to make her response, the doors of the private room were suddenly kicked open.

Bang! Bang!

Everybody jumped.
