Chapter 485
Everyone burst intoughter at once.
Throwing Matthew a single nce, Grace inquired, “Is our ss monitor telling the truth, Matthew? Are
you really a janitor? We’re all ssmates from the same batch. Why is your life so tough? It’s one thing
to be a janitor, but how did you end up cleaning toilets? Can you please save face for your
ssmates?”
Knitting his brows, Matthew muttered, “It’s still a job though. I didn’t steal or rob and made money with
my own two hands. Is that something I should be ashamed of?”
“If you’re going to live like this, it would be better if you steal or rob!” snorted Grace.
“A young man in his twenties with healthy limbs can make a pretty decent amount moving bricks at
construction sites. But you’re cleaning toilets instead of that. How ridiculous!”
Another male ssmate instantly mocked, “Hey! What happens if ine finds out that Matthew is
cleaning toilets at a hospital now? Do you guys remember? Back in the days, Matthew had a crush on
our ss belle, ine.

There was once when Matthew posted the love letter he wrote to her on the ckboard. It was so
funny! But, look at him now. Fortunately, ine isn’t blind when ites to men.”
With a heartyugh, Grace went on, “Seriously, ine is very unfortunate though. As the ss belle,
she was fancied by someone like Matthew. Imagine how disgusting it would have been for her.”
The crowd cracked up again.
His expression turning cloudy, Matthew said in a solemn tone, “Guys, I’m just here to attend the
reunion dinner. Do you guys really have to taunt me like that?”
“Hey, Matthew. We’re ssmates. Can’t you see that we’re just joking? Why are you getting anxious?”
Leo waved his hand dismissively.
“Well. Since you’re here already, just take a seat first. It isn’t a big deal if we have to squeeze with each
other. But, I need to tell you in advance. We will be sharing the expenses equally tonight. No matter
how much we spend tonight, you’ll need to contribute equally. Do you understand?”
ring at Matthew, Grace warned, “You better think carefully, Matthew. Our ss monitor is
entertaining a guest tonight and he purposely bought a few bottles of good wine. The drinks alone cost
more than one thousand. Everyone will have to pay at least a thousand in total. You cannot ask us to
back you up if you find yourself short of money!”
Matthew scowled in response. “Don’t worry. I’ll make sure I pay every cent I owe!”
“That’s more like it!” sneered Leo.
“Come and take a seat then.”
Marching inside, Matthew prepared to move to the innermost side of the room.
However, Leo beckoned at him and demanded, “Where are you going? Go sit by the door! These seats
are reserved. Find your own ce!”
Matthew’s brows knitted upon hearing that. In the end, instead of saying something, he went and took a
seat by the door.
Honestly, a seat like this was usually intended for someone who was paying the bill, or someone with
the lowest status in the group.
And it was obvious that in the eyes of Leo, Matthew was that someone with the lowest status.
Instead of bothering with Matthew, Leo and the others continued to talk.
“Leo, I heard that you’re now the managing director in thepany?”
“Wow! You got promoted really quickly!”
“When do you think I can join you? Thepany I’m working for has got no future at all!” Leaning
against Leo, Grace said sweetly.
Wrapping his hand around her, Leo guffawed. “No problem. Tell you what. If tonight’s reunion party is
sessful, don’t mention joining mypany—I can promote you to be a manager right away!”
Everyone was shocked. “What’s happening?”
“What are you trying to do, Leo?”
With a superior smile, Leo continued, “I have invited a VIP guest tonight. Ourpany wants to
cooperate with this guest, and if I can seal the deal, huh, it would be a project of tens of millions. By
then, I’ll be the most powerful person in thepany!”
