Kelly Jensen frowned. “Kimberly, you just came over from Chicago, so you might not know that we have someone called Finn Taylor here. He doesn’t have that great of a reputation.”
Kimberly Gold frowned as she listened to her best friend, feeling ill at ease.
However, Kelly Jensen hadn’t noticed that. She went on about how she was trying to help Kimberly Gold avoid falling into a pit. This way, she would be able to claim some credit.
“We have a family called the Larson family in San Francisco. The eldest daughter of that family is Yvette Larson. Three years ago, she married a useless man—Finn Taylor. Over the past three years, he has never retaliated nor rebuked the Larson family even when they beat him or lashed out at him. In fact, he’s just a servant who helps with household chores. Sigh, I’m glad he isn’t my husband. If I had a husband like that, I’d have killed him a long time ago.”
The displeasure on Kimberly Gold’s face only intensified.
Although Kelly Jensen had noticed it, she hadn’t thought much about it. She simply thought that her best friend was infuriated at being friends with someone who shared the same name as that piece of trash. It had never once crossed her mind that the friend Kimberly Gold talked about was none other than that piece of trash—Finn Taylor.
How was that possible? The two were worlds apart.
One was the high and mighty young lady of the Gold family, while the other was just a useless matrilocal son-in-law.
If they were friends, pigs could fly!
Just as that thought crossed Kelly Jensen’s mind, someone pushed open the door to the cafe.
He walked up to their table and took a seat; then, he flung his car key onto the table casually. “Where are your things?”
Kelly Jensen was shell-shocked.
The person who had sat down was the legendary piece of trash—Finn Taylor!
“You’re Finn Taylor?” Kelly Jensen asked.
“Yes.” Not understanding what was going on, Finn Taylor answered honestly.
“You’re that useless matrilocal son-in-law of the Larson family?” Although she already knew the answer, Kelly Jensen still posed that question.
“Er… It seems like I’m quite famous.” Finn Taylor’s expression darkened. ‘That b*stard—Quince Larson—has ruined my reputation. Now, there are few who don’t know of San Francisco’s useless matrilocal son-in-law.’
Seeing that she was right, Kelly Jensen’s expression soured immediately. “Stay away from me. I have OCD.”
Kelly Jensen was from San Francisco, and she had heard rumors about Finn Taylor for the past three years. Each rumor was enough to sentence him to death in her heart, but now, that piece of trash was sitting right in front of her!
Nothing disgusted her more.
“Kelly Jensen, stop it. Finn Taylor is my friend.”
To Kimberly Gold, Kelly Jensen was just a playing piece with absolutely no significance, yet the latter went on to badmouth Finn Taylor in front of her. This made Kimberly Gold very uncomfortable.
Just as Kimberly Gold was about to say something, her best friend’s phone rang.
The latter stood up to pick up the phone.
“I’m out. I’ll send you my location.”
Kelly Jensen returned with a smile on her face.
By then, Kimberly Gold had already started chatting with Finn Taylor. The former had no more time to bother about her best friend, but Kelly Jensen was delighted because the one who had called her was none other than her cousin—Gregory Jensen.
Kelly Jensen was from San Francisco but had gotten to know Kimberly Gold at school in Chicago.
Initially, she had been working in Chicago too. But when the Gold family moved to San Francisco, the Jensen family had asked her to move back as well.
Kelly Jensen shared a good relationship with her cousin.
Since Gregory Jensen hadn’t seen his cousin since her return, he was coming to find her now.
Knowing that her cousin was coming, she was naturally elated.
About ten minutes later, Kelly Jensen received a message from her cousin saying that he had arrived. She then rushed out of the cafe cheerfully, afraid that her cousin wouldn’t be able to find the cafe.
Because the cousins hadn’t met in a long time, they greeted each other warmly.
As Kelly Jensen brought her cousin in, she then added, “Brother, there’s someone inside who is Kimberly Gold’s friend. I’m not related to him in any way, so you’d better not think that I came into contact with bad company.”
The Jensen family was strict, and Kelly Jensen despised how Finn Taylor was so useless and lazy and how he was a matrilocal son-in-law who waited to be fed by his wife’s family. As such, she wanted to clear the air with her cousin and mentally prepare him.
Gregory Jensen was curious about who his cousin was talking about. ‘Why does she sound so serious?’
As the pair entered the cafe, Kelly Jensen pointed at Finn Taylor. “It’s that guy—Finn Taylor—the Larson family’s useless matrilocal son-in-law. I don’t know how he managed to marry Yvette Larson, but he’s even become friends with Kimberly Gold now! But a piece of trash is a piece of trash. No matter what kind of friends he has, he’s nothing but a piece of trash in San Francisco! I hate this sort of people the most!”
Kelly Jensen went off on a rant, not realizing that her cousin’s face had gone pale.
Gregory Jensen knew full well just how vicious Finn Taylor could get. Just a few days ago, the latter had gathered Logan Yeats, Hunter Sullivan, Alexander Scott, and Zachary Kennedy just because he had suffered a little humiliation at his mall.
‘How could someone who garnered the respect of the four guardians be a piece of trash?’ Gregory Jensen was sure that the other was simply laying low. Although he didn’t know why the other was doing so, he wouldn’t be so foolish as to expose him. He turned to his cousin and lectured her. “Stop it; you’d better keep it to yourself. When did you become so sharp-tongued?”
With that, Gregory Jensen headed toward Finn Taylor, leaving his cousin rooted to the spot.
At that moment, she nearly exploded in fury.
‘My cousin called me sharp-tongued just because of a piece of trash! I’m his favorite cousin! What good is that piece of trash? Why is everyone speaking up for him?’ Kelly Jensen hated Finn Taylor to the guts! ‘I’m the young lady of the Jensen family. Why can’t she look down on that piece of trash?’
With anger bubbling in her stomach, she stomped toward Finn Taylor. ‘I’m definitely going to find a chance to teach him a lesson so that he’ll know just how different we are!’
