The Invisible Rich Man's
Chapter 306
Queta and Gerald enter, dressed modestly.
Their sight elicited an insulting frown from many of the women in the restaurant.
“Isn't that Queta Smith? He came here, to Surati?”
Next, a group of four or five women and men entered as well. As they walked past the table where Gerald and Queta were sitting, some of them stopped to stare at Queta in surprise. A playful spark flashed in those eyes.
“Linda...oh, hey, everyone.” Queta's face blushed as she greeted them, put down her food and clasped her dress nervously.
Linda was dressed neatly and wore a small black dress that only covered her butt.
Her female friends wore lewd-like clothing, while the men had piercings that showed their considerable social status.
It should be fair to assume that this is Queta's classmate.
They also have teacher training courses at Gerald University. You get all sorts there.
Some rich brats who fail to qualify for other courses. Some are small business people. Some stiff work regular.
Rich brats attend classes mainly to pick up chicks.
Beautiful young things there hoping to find a sugar daddy.
The rest like Queta— is really here to learn something.
“Hahaha... Surely you cannot afford this place, Queta?” Linda hugged his shoulder, grinning towards Queta happily. Obviously, degrading Queta like this makes Linda feel like she really is someone.
Especially since when the first class started two days ago, one of the rich boys had brought up the topic in the class about who was the prettiest girl among their classmates.
There was a joking invitation for him to appear in front and deliver an acceptance speech for this honor, but Queta has so far paid no attention to their jeers and their attempts to chat with him.
However, this is only increasingly hostile towards the competitive Linda, who has never lost to anyone in terms of looks. After all, isn't it said that the greatest cruelty committed to a woman is to call another woman more beautiful than her? Even if they admitted it out loud, it was still a heart-wrenching thing.
So that was for Linda, and to make matters worse, she lost to the moneyless bum!
"It's my birthday today and I'm treating a friend to lunch!" Queta is unaware of Linda's hostility towards her, so she only offers a simple answer and nothing more.
“Jeez, is this your treat? I thought this guy was your girlfriend, then? ”
One of the other girls joined in. “Ahahaha! Someone has to say: you two are the perfect couple! Look what you two are wearing!”
“Stop sulking, you two. It was just some steak and fruit juice,” one of the men who was with them pointed, shaking his head. “It's our beauty class birthday Queta today, let her enjoy herself. Stop making a fuss!”
'Beauty class', he said. Linda can't let that pass.
“But look, you guys! They only have a minimum here! Someone's celebrating her birthday, but I'm sure they can't even afford a cake! Looking at the two of them, I guess he would have to spend his entire life savings just to be here!
“Well, I won't bother you any further. No wonder neighbor Queta talked about how she never ate dinner—and even for lunch, she only had one bowl of white rice. Here I think he is only paying attention to his figure, but I guess he doesn't have much money to eat!”
After saying her part for now, Linda snorted, folded her hands, and walked away.
“We're leaving now. You won't get in trouble from us anymore. After all, we still have to accompany Finn to Miss Liara's birthday party afterward. Isn't that right, Fin?” Linda makes a show of holding on to the arm of a young man and finally leaves.
After being humiliated like that, Queta lowered her head and kept silent. He doesn't eat anymore. A moment later, Gerald saw hot tears streaming down his cheeks.
