It turned out that what I thought was a sweet love was just what I thought. But in Silvia's eyes, I was just a pretty and obedient pretty boy?
That was ridiculous.
I nodded. If that was the case, then let's did it this way.
Although my heart ached, I could still let it go.
I came here to keep her, but if she asked me to go, then I would let it go.
I looked at Silvia and said with a wry smile, “Well, I wish you happiness.”
Having said that, I planned to turn around and leave the stage.
Silvia clenched her hands and looked away, not looking at me.
But Jacques blocked my way, sneering, “Since you’re here, stay and watch the ceremony. Otherwise, you’ll be disrespecting me, Jacques, my Buckley Family and the entire Stanford if you stay arrogant like that.”
“So arrogant?” I laughed.
I had heard similar things before.
After all, California was a big city and not everyone knew me, so it was inevitable that some people would try to show off to me.
But after I dealt with a few blind people, no one dared to talk to me like that anymore.
Jacques did not hear the contempt for him in my words, but instead clapped his hands.
Then, many people in black suits came out and surrounded the stage.
“Boy, if I'm not happy today, you cannot leave this room,” Jacques said.
Silvia hurried over, glared at me and said, “Get lost, I do not want to see you again!”
“Did I ask you to speak?” Jacques said coldly, “Do you really think I'm stupid? I can see that you are protecting this kid.”
Protect me?
I looked at Silvia deeply and found that her eyes were full of worry.
Maybe what she just said was a lie?
Silvia shook her head and said, “I just do not want to have anything to do with the person from the past anymore.
“Besides, today is our engagement day, so what does my ex-boyfriend have to do with me? If you tell others about it later, will you have the face to do it?”
Her tone softened, “Jacques, I am thinking about you.”
Jacques's expression improved a little, but he still said, “I am not afraid of losing face, because in this small piece of land in Stanford, I am the king.”
He pointed at me and said, “Go to the audience and watch the ceremony!”
I nodded, glanced at Silvia with a half-smile and then walked off the stage.
But as soon as I stepped down from the stage, I was immediately surrounded by four men in black suits.
Then they took me to a corner seat.
This was because they were afraid that I would run away.
From the stage, Jacques smirked and said, “Boy, just sit tight and watch the ceremony. If I say you’re not leaving, then you’re not leaving.”
“Fine. If you do not let me go now, I won't leave until you want me to,” I said and smiled faintly.
“Shut up!” Silvia scolded.
I smiled and said nothing. They wanted to continue playing, so do not blame me.
Jacques added, “I heard you are from California? That's great. Some big shots from California will be coming later.
“They are all young men in California circles. I will introduce them to you. It will also help you see the world.”
I could not help but laugh again and said, “Then I'd like to thank you in advance.”
At this time, a group of people came over. They were all young people and they looked very arrogant.
As expected, they must be Jacques’s bad friends.
“Boy, don't you think it's good to be alive? Do you really think Silvia can protect you?”
“To tell you the truth, even if you did not come today, Jacques still would not let you go. How could he allow the man who slept with his fiancée for four years to live?”
