"Let's ditch it, Brother. I really don't want to go."
Caitlyn shook her head, wanting to refuse.
"Be good."
Sean uttered two words softly.
"Alright..."
Caitlyn sent Sean the address without saying more.
...
Joules Town, Swiss Hotel.
The hotel was better than the one Ray and Sean went to yesterday.
The magnificent decoration made Caitlyn walk cautiously.
The floor that could reflect one's figure made any cash-strapped person feel deeply inferior.
"It's okay. I've got you."
Sean saw Caitlyn's embarrassment and said with a smile.
That sentence alone made Caitlyn feel at ease.
The two went to a private room by referring to the private room number given by Caitlyn's friend.
There were already a dozen young men and women in the private room.
"Ah, here comes Catie. Hurry over and have a seat!"
"It's so hard to get you here. Come over!"
"Catie, if you ask me, don't work too hard. We can help you raise money for your orphanage later."
The crowd of men and women rose to welcome Caitlyn when they saw her.
Although Caitlyn was poor, she was quite popular at school.
Besides that, Caitlyn's appearance made her popular among men. No one would treat her badly.
Therefore, dozens of young men and women called out to Caitlyn enthusiastically. They had no intention of looking down on her.
"Sorry, I'm late."
Caitlyn smiled and nodded before walking into the private room with Sean.
"Oh, Catie. Who's this?"
"No way, Catie. Do you have a boy..."
Several of Caitlyn's best friends looked shocked when they saw Sean.
They did not expect someone like Caitlyn, who was so focused on the orphanage, to have time to find a boyfriend.
"Don't get the wrong idea. He's my..."
Caitlyn blushed and was about to say that Sean was her brother.
However, Caitlyn's expression soon changed as she swallowed the rest of her speech.
It was because she saw the last person she wanted to see.
The young man sitting at the main seat, Wes Jordan, was from a wealthy family.
Besides that, Caitlyn pursued Caitlyn during school, even going to the entrance of the orphanage several times and frightening many of the children.
Caitlyn had an instinctive fear of Wes.
Sure enough, Wes was frowning and looking at Sean darkly.
Caitlyn froze for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Sean slowly turned his head and followed Caitlyn's gaze. He locked eyes with Wes for two seconds and immediately saw what was wrong.
"Hello, I'm Catie's friend."
Sean smiled and ambled up to greet the crowd.
"Ah, okay, okay. Well..."
The crowd came to themselves and then nodded.
However, no one dared ask Sean to stay.
After all, Wes was treating them to a meal today. They dared not keep Sean around.
Everyone knew Wes liked Caitlyn. Besides that, he pursued her intensely before.
The presence of a love rival like Sean was likely to upset Wes!
"Well, I remembered I have something to handle suddenly. We gotta go."
