Chapter 60 People Who Dislike Each Other Always Meet
A moment later, everyone arrived at the reserved booth Lori had arranged in advance. After introducing themselves, they took their seats. Despite Lori's average looks, her seductive attire always attracted male friends around her. She was aware of Paul's persistent pursuit of Evelyn, while Tyler, though from a decent family, had an ordinary appearance. James, on the other hand, was good-looking but dressed so plainly that Lori didn't find him appealing.
Initially, Lori had hoped that Evelyn would bring along some handsome and wealthy young men. However, Evelyn's companions turned out to be James and Tyler, which immediately dampened Lori's interest.
Lori lost herself in her phone on the sofa while playing Twitter, seeking the attention of nearby handsome guys to find a wealthy gentleman.
"Lori, where's Sarah? She came with you." Just then, Evelyn suddenly whispered to Lori.
"Sarah went to the bathroom!" Lori chatted up a handsome guy nearby on her Twitter and responded casually. Since the two people brought by Evelyn cannot meet Lori's requirements, Lori would not waste time with them.
"Sarah will be back soon!" Evelyn said.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she saw a tall and sexy beauty walking towards them in high heels.
"Sarah, we're here!" When Evelyn saw the beauty, she shouted at her.
Then she got up and greeted Sarah, bringing the sexy beauty back to everyone.
"Let me introduce you, this is one of the top ten beauties at Lumina School of Arts, Sarah!" Evelyn dragged the sexy beauty and introduced her arrogantly.
When James heard this, he couldn't help but look up at the beauty next to Evelyn.
James had to admit that Sarah, the recognized beauty of Lumina School of Arts, was indeed much more beautiful than Evelyn and Lori.
Sarah also had a noble and glamorous feeling. Both her figure and appearance can be regarded as very perfect.
At this time, Sarah was wearing a sling suit, her soft hair spread out at will. She was tall with a tranquil temperament. Although there was no makeup on her face, she had a different style.
Under the dim light, she was covered with a layer of dreamlike veil like a fairy.
"Sarah, these three are my friends, Paul, Tyler and James!" Evelyn turned to look at the three and introduced them.
"Hello!" Sarah greeted.
"Hello, beauty Sarah!" Paul grinned at Sarah, then continued, "Now that we're all here, let's start playing and have whatever you want to drink, it's James' treat."
Lori turned to look at James with a look of surprise in her eyes.
In her opinion, James was just an ordinary student, and his clothes were very shabby. But she never expected that it was James' treat.
So at this time, Lori's views on James have also changed a little. Maybe James was a low-key rich guy! Lori hesitated, ready to find a chance to sit next to James and seduce him.
But beyond her expectation, Paul dragged Sarah to James' side, then smiled and said, "Sarah, sit here!"
Sarah couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then chose to sit next to James.
Although James looked a bit unattractive, he was still handsome.
Today's treat was on James, which meant that James was still rich, so Sarah did not refuse.
At the sight of this scene, Lori frowned her brows immediately, somewhat unhappy.
Evelyn did not expose James' identity. With her understanding of Sarah, as long as Sarah knew James was poor, she would stay away from him.
So Evelyn acquiesced to Paul's attempt to set up James and Sarah.
As the group settled in, conversation and drinks flowed. Sarah, who appeared aloof but wasn't introverted, engaged James in conversation. Although it was their first meeting, Sarah didn't harbor any romantic feelings toward James. Despite the initial impression, Sarah found James acceptable as a friend.
However, as James engaged energetically with Sarah, a group of people walked into the Stellar Lounge. They were Michael and his entourage, including Jennifer, Ashley, Sandra, and several other classmates. Michael led the group to a sofa booth with a minimum spending of three thousand dollars.
David, noticing James nearby, remarked to Michael, "Isn't that James? What's he doing here?"
Sandra, spotting James chatting enthusiastically with Sarah, noted with puzzlement. "I can't believe this delivery guy has money to hang out here with us in a similar booth. What's happened to James recently? It's like he's a changed person."
Hearing David's comment, Michael felt somewhat displeased. Bringing his group to the lounge and securing a booth costing at least three thousand dollars already gave him a sense of pride. Yet, he never expected James to have a similar booth.
Jennifer, observing the interaction between James and Sarah, felt unease. Sarah was far superior to Jennifer in appearance, demeanor, and attire, stirring jealousy within her.
"James must be dating that girl!" At that moment, Ashley suddenly said.
"Ashley, stop kidding. We all know that James is just a delivery man! Except for Jennifer, who was a little stupid before, no girl wants to date someone like him." Sandra retorted harshly, as if she had forgotten the story of James rescuing her from Kevin.
As the scene unfolded, Ashely hesitated to voice her thoughts.
After all, she had not disclosed the incident at Crystal Starlight Hotel to anyone.
Despite this, having personally experienced James' actions, Ashley knew he was not as simple as a seeming loser.
