Chapter 1017
Felicity said, “Come on, Mr. Snyder, be more like a gentleman. I didn’t get mad when you said that I
lack feminine charm, right? Although you look like a yboy, you’re actually a very trustable friend.
After all, I’m not dating you, so you being a yboy doesn’t affect me at all. We can still get along well
as friends.”
Vermont paused. The phrase “I’m not dating you” sounded very particrly unpleasant to him as he
suddenly felt a stifling sense of frustration inside.
He scrunched his face and said while gritting his teeth, ’Like I would be interested in dating you!”
Felicity did not notice that he was throwing a tantrum and thought that he was simply arguing with her
as usual. So, she said yfully, “You’re right. Mr. Snyder is known to have high standards for women.
How could my short legs ever be good enough for him?”
Listening to her self-deprecating words that were meant to cheer him up, he felt even worse.
He thought to himself. ‘Yeah. I have no idea why I would lower my standards to the point where I can’t
stop thinking about your short legs. Even worse, you’re so oblivious that you can’t tell that I have
feelings for you.’
“Okay, okay. Stop being angry. I’ll treat you to a Yostrainian meal after I receive my first payment. I’m
going to take you to the newly opened Yostrainian restaurant in Northgate and order everything on the
menu. I’m going to show that snobbish owner what I’m made of!”
Vermont suppressed his frustration and asked, ‘How did that owner offend you?”
“He didn’t really offend me, but he would always give me this weird look whenever I passed by his
restaurant.”
Felicity even started imitating him as she spoke.
“He would roll his eyes to the back of his head as if he was saying that I’m too poor to be eating there.”
Vermont frustration disappeared and he could not help butugh. “You think that he looks down on you,
yet you still want to spend money in his shop? Did he save you in your past life or something?”
Felicity paused. “I… I just want to show him that I’m not poor.”
Vermont sat upright and leaned closer to her. Water droplets fell from his damp hair. Then, he lifted his
dashing eyebrows and said with a smirk, “At this point, you’re just giving him money. Not only that he’ll
continue to look down on you, but he’ll probably think that you’re an idiot too.”
Felicity became unhappy upon hearing that. “Do you have a better idea then?”
Vermont’s lips curved even more as his gaze turned cold. “If I were you, I’ll start a funeral business
right next to his shop. I’m going to sell mortuary supplies and st mourning music all day long. I’m
sure that his shop will be closed within a month.
“His store has a five-year lease contract worth about three million dors per year. Assuming that his
renovation costs another million dors, in addition to other expenses, I can’t even imagine how much
money he’d lose. Even if he wanted to sell his business, it would be difficult with a funeral supply store
next door.
Felicity responded, “You’re wicked.” She only wanted to embarrass the shop owner, yet Vermont
nned to ruin his life instead.

But thendlord may not rent you a shop if you’re going to start a funeral supply store there. He has to
think about other potential tenants too, right?”
Vermont said, “I’ll just rent all the other shops as long as I can teach the restaurant owner a lesson. I’m
pretty sure that thendlord will be more than happy to do that.”
‘A rich man’s revenge.’ Felicity thought for a while and said, ‘You’re not going to be so mean to me if I
ever offend you, right?”
Vermont smirked and pinched her cheek. “That’s hard to say. So, you’d better show me some respect
and stop being so violent to me.”
Felicity immediately said, “I’m not that bold. You’ve got to be very tired after taking such a long shower.
Let me give you a back massage.”
Vermont looked at her and said, “Sure.” Then, he took off his bathrobe, revealing his muscr body as
he turned her back against her and said tly, “Press harder. My back has been very stifftely.”
Felicity was speechless.
