"Boss Hawthorne, don’t worry. Even if your family is too poor to afford meals, I’ll still be your sidekick."
"Yeah, Boss Hawthorne. Brothers are supposed to look after each other, no need to think too much." Thɪs chapter is updated by novel•fire.net
Listening to this group of people enthusiastically shouting, Leo remained unmoved, even feeling like laughing a bit.
Just how lowly does this foolish bunch think of Victor Hawthorne?
Too poor to afford meals?
Thus, Leo was particularly looking forward to seeing the expression on this group’s faces when they see that Victor Hawthorne’s bathroom is bigger than any of their houses.
When guys gather together, the topic naturally includes good-looking girls.
"Oh right, let’s invite July Quinn over then, we can have her help us level up."
"Right right right, it’s been a while since we’ve seen July Quinn’s stunning face, I’m worried my aesthetic judgment might be declining."
Because of July Quinn’s unforgettable beauty, she is now a hot topic among the boys.
But there’s still someone thinking about Joy Quinn.
"How about we invite Joy Quinn too?"
After all, Joy Quinn has been Victor Hawthorne’s dream girl for quite a few years.
If the dream girl could attend Victor Hawthorne’s birthday party, he should be very happy.
Of course, not everyone was in favor: "But hasn’t Boss Hawthorne already given up on pursuing her?"
"Giving up doesn’t mean he doesn’t have feelings for her, right? I feel Boss Hawthorne is still emotionally attached to her."
While they were all chattering away, Victor Hawthorne was busy texting July Quinn, asking if she was free to join his birthday bash.
So he didn’t notice that these guys had shifted the topic from July Quinn to Joy Quinn.
And seeing Victor Hawthorne not responding to the questions about Joy Quinn, Leo momentarily thought, just like those guys said, even though he gave up pursuing Joy Quinn, he still had feelings for her.
If that’s the case, why not help Victor Hawthorne invite Joy Quinn to his birthday party this time?
Although he wasn’t really in favor of Victor Hawthorne and someone like Joy Quinn being together, the most important thing right now was for Victor Hawthorne to be happy on his birthday.
With this thought, Leo directly texted Joy Quinn.
[Joy, are you free this afternoon?]
Meanwhile, at the school library.
Joy Quinn had been immersed in the library for several days, studying Meridia’s language, hoping to stand out in the assessments.
But at this moment, her phone rang.
Joy Quinn initially thought it was Willow Young asking for help with attendance again, and her face fell.
But seeing it was a text from Leo.
In that instant, Joy Quinn’s face visibly brightened.
Since the last time she had proactively texted Leo about his health and hinted at her interest, there had been no follow-up from him.
Now Leo was texting first, asking if she was free...
Does this mean Leo wants to date her?
Thinking this, Joy Quinn quickly replied: [I’m free. What’s up?]
[Then come to this place this afternoon.]
Leo also sent her a location.
[Okay, but where is this?]
Joy Quinn looked at the location and found it was in a suburban area.
Could it be Leo’s home?
But after sending the message, Leo hadn’t replied yet.
Nonetheless, Joy Quinn went back to her dorm to shower, put on a fresh and beautiful light makeup, and then headed to the address Leo had sent her...
