Matthew and Isabelle booked a cab beforehand. I sat in the front seat while the others were paired up in the back. Matthew was next to Isabelle, while Lucas was beside Charlotte.


    I felt so left out. I couldn''t help but curse Matthew in my head.


    Suddenly, Charlotte said happily, "That felt so satisfying! Lucas, thank you for standing up for me. I''m grateful for you."


    She leaned against Lucas lovingly, which made me question if what Matthew had told me earlier was true.


    It didn''t seem like she didn''t like Lucas. There was no way she would be this affectionate if she didn''t like him. Either she lied to the others in the dorm, or she was just good at acting.


    Lucas said cheerfully, "That was nothing. If anyone dares to bully you, just tell them you''re my girlfriend. I can guarantee that nobody will darey a hand on you."


    Pfft. What a show-off. I rolled my eyes and opened the window for some air. I couldn''t be bothered to listen to him brag.


    Charlotte replied, "That''s why it''s important to be cautious when dating. If I ever end up like Lina, dating a guy who only acts rich, it would be so embarrassing!" What? Why drag me into the conversation? I acted like I didn''t hear anything.


    Isabelle seemed scared I would get angry, so she quickly stepped in to ease the tension. "You can''t entirely me William for what happened between him and Lina. She cheated on him!"


    Charlotte sided with Lina and said, "Her cheating on him and him lying are two different things! If he didn''t lie, she wouldn''t have cheated on him!"


    No wonder Charlotte and Lina were friends. They were so suited for each other.


    Matthew coughed awkwardly. "How about we talk about something else? Have you guys heard that Ed Sheeran is going to have a concert here? Do you want to go?"


    Finally, the topic changed, but I still couldn''t be bothered to join the conversation, so I just looked out the window.


    Suddenly, I saw the Pgos Estates, and it reminded me of the talent. I wondered how the conversation between the HR department and the talent went. If the talent came to work for me, mypany would be saved.


    "Oh my! Is that the Pgos Estates?" Charlotte eximed. "I heard that it''s selling out really quickly."


    Lucas replied, "Yeah. The Estates has a good location, great facilities, and a pleasant environment. The only downside is that it''s really expensive, but there are still so many rich people out there to buy them. Apparently, the most expensive vi was sold today."


    Charlotte asked curiously, "The most expensive one? How much is that?"


    "20 million dors."


    Everyone in the car gasped at his answer.


    "20 million dors? I''ll probably never see that much money in my lifetime!"


    "20 million dors is ridiculous. How luxurious must it be to be this expensive?"


    "Charlotte, your family owns a vi too, right? How does itpare with the ones in Pgos Estates?"


    Charlotte boasted in response, "My family doesn''t own a vi, but my aunt has one, and so does my cousin! I always stay over during holidays."


    At that moment, the usually quiet driver suddenly spoke up, "Do you know who bought the 20-million-dor vi?"


    I couldn''t help but turn to look at him. "You know?"


    The driver looked at me and said, "Of course I do! Today I picked up a customer from this area who saw everything and told me about it.


    "The person who bought the vi didn''t even look like a wealthy businessman. In fact, he seemed like a university student around your age."


    "A university student?"
