Chapter 649
“Speak for yourselves!” Emmanuel also stood up, backing Tia up as he refuted
the Unger family. “That’s right, money can buy a house, but not a home;
money can buy a woman, but not love! Money can buy education, but not
manners! I believe any man who can give Tia happiness is qualified to be her
man!”
His words left the Unger family speechless.
Tia was taken aback as well, wondering if her Prince Charming liked her back
and if he wanted to be her man. Little did she know Emmanuel had been
paving the way for his cousin all this while.
“Hmph, all fanciful, empty words! You’d say all that just because you’re
penniless!” Cain had just begun to retort when someone unexpectedly
entered the room.
Since the restaurant had glass walls, people outside could see and hear
what was happening inside. As such, the debate among the few individuals
attracted the attention of a man outside!
“Mr. Unger, you’re here!” Cain immediately stopped and put on a flattering
smile upon seeing the newcomer.
Richie, too, hurriedly stepped forward to greet the man with a handshake.
Marianne was taken aback, bewildered by the man who suddenly barged in.
His dignified demeanor and expensive attire clearly indicated that he was
from the upper class.
It turned out that the man was none other than the general manager of
Longine Bank, the same person whom Cain took great pride in having
connections with–Wyatt Unger.
A position in the bank was considered an upper–class profession, and a
regular bank manager in Yeringham already held a respectable position, let
alone the general manager of Longine Bank. The networking capabilities of
someone like him were unimaginably powerful.
Families like the Unger family dreamt of establishing a good relationship with
Wyatt, not only to gain access to his connections but also to prove their
social status.
Unfortunately, becoming a VIP client of Longine Bank required a minimum
deposit of millions, which they did not have. They could only rely on their
shared surname to establish some connections.
He had specifically invited Wyatt over for a meal whilst being on Richie’s blind
date, or he wouldn’t have chosen this setting either. However, right then,
Wyatte ignored Richie, who was greeting him with a smile, and went straight
up to Emmanuel.
Richie was immediately stuck in an awkward position. What’s going on?!
“Mr. Lowe, what a coincidence! It’s really you. I saw you outside earlier, but I
was worried about mistaking someone else for you!”
Their interaction left the Unger family frozen in place.
What in the world is going on?!
To think the person they tried so hard to establish connections with was now
ignoring them and pleasing Emmanuel!
Yes, pleasing!
Cain has been in the business world for a long time and had tried to please
countless individuals. He was well aware of Wyatt’s current attitude, which
was an attempt to please Emmanuel.
How could this be? Could this young man actually be some kind of big shot?
Marianne was equally astonished, never expecting such a dramatic turn of
-events.
Like mother, like daughter. In reality, she was very satisfied with Emmanuel’s
looks and physique. Richie, with his skinny frame, couldn’t compare to him!
However, marriage wasn’t just about love; as parents, they needed to be
practical and choose a man who could guarantee their daughter’s lifestyle
and materialistic needs.
But now, things were different!
If Emmanuel turned out to be someone influential, she would definitely kick
Richie, this inferior choice, to the curb and spare Tia the trouble of dating him.
Emmanuel was also quite surprised. He didn’t expect Wyatt to show up just
then, believing it was all just a coincidence.
Also, since Wyatt was being enthusiastic, it wouldn’t be right for him to act
indifferent. He had no choice but to exchange pleasantries and shake hands
with the bank manager.
“Haha, I didn’t think I’d meet you here, Mr. Lowe! I’ve been wanting to treat you
to a meal for a long time!” Wyatt grasped Emmanuel’s hand tightly with both
hands.
He had long wanted to establish a good relationship with Emmanuel, the
super VIP with over 700 million in deposits.
Meanwhile, the Unger family was stuck in an awkward position as the scene
developed, for Wyatt ignored them the entire time they surrounded him.
