Chapter 1143 - 1143 Different Interpretation



Lucas raised his brows in surprise, “Didn’t they say that the Dunnes are already one of the eight top families? They’re not?”

Leila rolled her eyes. “That’s because they want to flatter Roger. The Dunnes aren’t actually one of the eight top families.

“You’re the chairman of the Stardust Corporation, but you don’t even know who the eight top families are? C’mon. Okay, I’ll list them for you. The Howards, the Smiths, the Huttons, the Piers, the Williams, the Steeles, and the Waltons are the eight top families in DC!”

Lucas smiled without saying anything.

In fact, he really didn’t pay attention to which families were the eight top families of DC because, no matter who they were, it didn’t make much of a difference to Lucas.

But so far, except for the Waltons, all of the other seven families had more or less crossed paths with Lucas.

Lucas didn’t intend to tell Leila about such things.

But after hearing what Leila said, Lucas asked with some puzzlement, “Actually, you asked me to pose as your boyfriend for a day today to use me as a shield, right? Roger Dunne probably harbors designs on you.”

Leila said unnaturally, “Yes, Roger is really annoying. I don’t know him at all, but he comes to bother me every day. He even encouraged people in the dormitory to persuade me to accept him. It’s so annoying.

“I happened to bump into you today, and you’re a decent catch, so I decided to ask you to be my shield!

“But this is the request I won with my own abilities. You’re not scared and want to run away, are you?”

Leila looked at Lucas and became nervous. She was worried that he might be too frightened by the Dunnes to go to the party after learning how powerful they were.

After all, if Lucas went to the party as Leila’s boyfriend, Roger would definitely be hostile to him and maybe even do something to him.

Leila was worried that Lucas wouldn’t be able to withstand the pressure and leave after hearing about Roger’s background.

Looking at Leila’s nervous expression, Lucas smiled lightly. “Since I’ve promised you, I naturally won’t back out halfway. Don’t worry.”

Only then did Leila feel a little more at ease. She said to Lucas, “But if Roger targets you later, please just bear with it and avoid getting into a conflict with him. I think he’ll give up on his own after today. Thanks!”

Lucas nodded. In fact, he didn’t take a scion of a wealthy family seriously at all, let alone have any scruples about him.

About half an hour later, Lucas arrived at the parking lot of the restaurant with Leila.

It was a famous restaurant in DC that was a hot spot for gatherings.

Just after getting out of the car, Lucas and Leila heard a crisp voice coming from behind, “Hey, Leila, you’re finally here!”

The two turned their heads and saw a girl clad in a long camel-colored trench coat standing at the entrance of the restaurant and waving at them.

“That’s my roommate, Everleigh Cohen,” Leila whispered to Lucas while holding his arm and walking toward Everleigh. “You’re so early, Everleigh!”

When she reached Everleigh, Leila introduced to her, “This is my boyfriend, Lucas Gray.”

Everleigh didn’t show any loathing when she heard that Lucas was Leila’s boyfriend, unlike Alyssa and Bethany. Instead, she smiled and took the initiative to shake his hand enthusiastically. “Hello. It’s nice to meet you! It turns out Leila has been hiding such a handsome boyfriend from us.”

Then she complained to Leila jokingly, “That’s so mean of you, Leila! I can’t believe we didn’t know you had a boyfriend until now. So much for being roommates for years!”

Leila pursed her lips and smiled. “I only managed to win his heart recently. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if I told you guys about it before I got him and things didn’t work out?”

Leila covertly glanced at Lucas, signaling him not to let the cat out of the bag later.

Everleigh raised her eyebrows and said with some surprise, “You courted him first? I didn’t believe it when Alyssa and Bethany told me just now! I didn’t expect that you, the youngest in our dorm room and who has never been in a relationship, would take the initiative to chase a man.”

Leila raised her head and laughed. “Who says women can’t chase men? It’s different when it comes to people you like!”

Leila looked around and asked doubtfully, “Everleigh, why are you alone here? Where’s your boyfriend?”

Without the slightest change in her smile, Everleigh said smoothly, “We’ve already broken up. That man is no longer my boyfriend.”

Taken aback, Leila asked with surprise. “Huh? Why?”

Everleigh shook her head, seemingly not wanting to bring up this matter again.

Leila realized that it was indeed inappropriate to ask her about her breakup at this time, so she hurriedly changed the subject.

She thought that Everleigh and her boyfriend broke up because of some unspeakable reason, but she didn’t expect that it was because of her.

Just half an hour ago, Alyssa had called Everleigh while on the way here and told her that Leila had found herself a penniless-looking boyfriend and even criticized him endlessly. She had also said that Roger might fly into a rage and teach Leila’s boyfriend a lesson after learning about it.

Everleigh interpreted it differently.

After hearing what Alyssa said, Everleigh suddenly developed an idea.
