With Bart and Tommy ridiculing him, Alger didn’t mind them at all. After all, his identity and status were incomparable to these two at the moment.
This time, the person Alger wanted to see was Perchings. Perchings was a talent and Alger knew that, so he was basically just helping Perchings.
Bart frowned as he looked at Frida and said, “But Frida, why would you see Alger at the Youssie Corporation? Has Alger been following you because he still can’t forget about you in his mind?”
Everyone sized Alger and Frida up with curiosity after hearing that. This kind of gossip was their favorite.
Frida flushed because of their gazes. She immediately frowned and explained, “No, don’t get it wrong. Alger works at the Youssie Corporation. I only ran into him at that time.”
How would Bart believe that someone like Alger would be working for the Youssie Corporation? He said mockingly, “You’re so innocent. How would a person like Alger be working at the Youssie Corporation?”
Frida frowned as she looked at Alger and found that Alger was dressing ordinarily right now.
How could someone who worked at the Youssie Corporation dress so ordinarily?
Thinking about it, Frida was now a bit convinced by Bart’s words.
Tommy looked at Alger and said with ridicule, “Alger, just forget about it. Frida is Bart’s woman. Don’t even think about it.”
Alger looked at Frida in shock. He was surprised that Frida and Bart were together.
Frida was a bit embarrassed. She looked at Alger and said, “Yes, Bart and I are together. Don’t… Don’t fall for me.”
Alger was very speechless after hearing that and he had no idea what to say.
He shook his head and said, “You all are thinking too much. I now have…”
However, before he finished talking, Tommy interrupted him. He wouldn’t miss any chances to mock Alger, so he said, “Are you telling us that you aren’t single right now?”
“Don’t joke here, alright? A person like you has no status and background at all. Why would someone be willing to be with you?”
Everyone looked at Alger in agreement. Their expressions were all full of ridicule. As for Frida, she was extremely proud as she held her head up high, as if she was telling Alger it was impossible for them to be together.
However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door and the door was opened again.
Then, everyone saw Winnie appear before them. Frida was already considered a beauty, but compared with Winnie, she seemed much more inferior.
Winnie had a pure temperament. There was no way for Frida to compare to her in terms of movements and gestures.
In an instant, everyone’s attention was put on Winnie. The eyes of many men present even brightened, curious about where this beauty came from.
Winnie said apologetically, “Excuse me. I’m here to look for someone.”
Looking for someone?
Who would such a beauty be here for?
All of them sized up every person here curiously.
After looking around the room, Winnie’s gaze landed on Alger. She smiled and said to Alger, “My dear, I can’t believe it’s really you. I thought I saw the wrong person.”
What?!
Everyone was stunned.
Bart and Tommy also looked at Winnie and Alger in disbelief.
“Is this real?”
“Alger is really seeing someone? And she’s even a beautiful woman to boot!”
All of them couldn’t accept this.
But the next second, what Alger said completely dashed their last hope.
“Honey, why are you here?”
Honey?
They were already married?
Winnie smiled and said, “I just happened to see you, so I came to take a look, and it’s really you. Are you having a gathering right now?”
“Hm, they’re my classmates in university,” Alger said with a smile.
Winnie nodded at everyone else, then looked at Alger and said, “But remember to come home earlier. I’ll go back and wait for you after finishing work.”
“Hm, be careful when you get back,” Alger nodded and said with a smile.
After Winnie left, everyone still hadn’t reacted.
They looked at Alger and Frida in shock.
Frida felt ashamed. She listened to what Bart and Tommy said just then and really thought that Alger had a crush on her. But now, she was embarrassed. Compared to the woman just then, they didn’t even seem to be on the same level.
Every move Winnie made was full of the aura of nobility.
After seeing Winnie, Bart immediately felt that Frida seemed to be less beautiful.
Seeing everyone’s eyes, Bart also looked at Tommy with great dissatisfaction, thinking that such an incident had a lot to do with Tommy.
Tommy was also surprised by this. At the same time, he even started feeling jealous of Alger in his mind.
Alger had a wife that was as pretty as a flower, but he had no idea about it. He was even embarrassed again in front of everyone else because of this.
Perchings looked at Alger and said in shock, “Alger, you really hid it well. That’s such a beautiful woman. Moreover, she even looks very classy!”
Everyone also exclaimed one after another, and they were all envious of Alger.
The organizer of the gathering, Bart, was left out on the sidelines by the others. Nobody cared about him any longer, which made Bart very discontent in his mind.
So, after that, the focus of this gathering was completely switched from Bart to Alger. Bart looked sullen. It could be said that he was very upset during the gathering.
The gathering finally ended and everyone was about to leave.
But at this moment, they heard a clamor of voices. Everyone looked over in shock and saw that someone seemed to be making trouble in the main hall.
The person, who was making trouble, even had an extraordinary identity. The security guards that were trying to stop him were all knocked down on the floor by this person.
The man looked at everyone and said, “I’m sorry for affecting you. I’m only here to look for someone this time.
“I heard that he’s here. If anyone knows, I hope you can tell me. When you need my help for anything in the future, I’ll definitely help!”
People in the crowd who had heard of this name all looked astonished.
“Brook!”
“He is Brook from Philadelphia?”
“He’s a really famous person!”
Brook was very famous, causing many people to look at him in fear.
A slightly bolder person mustered the courage and asked, “But who are you looking for?”
“Alger!”
