Chapter 246

When Jacob saw Henry Sanders, he frowned, wondering, 'What he doing here?

Henry said, "Hey Jacob, I heard your grandma's sick. Need my help? I came by just to check on you and her." Henry said he wanted to help, but the mocking look on his face showed he had no intention of actually helping. Jacob's expression was cold, and he said, "I don't need your help

Henry said, "Jacob, even if you don't care about your grandmother, you shouldn't dismiss my offer so lightly. If your grandmother doesn't receive treatment, she might not survive.

"From what I understand, she's your only family now. Are you really prepared to stand by and let her pass away?"

"Come on! What can you do to help me? You're broke yourself, Jacob said and raised an eyebrow, sure there was more to Henry's sudden appearance.

They were archenemies,perpetually locked in disputes over minor issues at school, with Henry invariably being the instigator of trouble.

Jacob was better than Henry at everything, so Henry always found Jacob annoying and looked for chances to mess with him.

Henry smirked, with one hand casually in his pocket and an air of condescension in his gaze, as he said, "Jacob, you've been away from campus lately, so you might have missed my big news.

"Our team has been hired by a renowned company with an annual salary of over 30 thousand dollars. I'm in a different league now."

Hearing this, Jacob found it amusing, thinking, 'Henry came to me just to show off-how childish!'

"Jacob, why are you laughing? What's with that look? Who do you think you're looking down on?" Henry raised his volume He hated Jacob's proud demeanor the most.

Confidently, Jacob sneered, "You came all the way here to brag about something so trivial, didn't you?"

Jacob was different. Natalie had told him to continue his studies and to focus on his education at this age.

Henry said, "Of course, my starting point is meant to be your finish line. I just had to share this little tidbit so you can envy me wholeheartedly."

Henry was always proud. Though poor, he had a strong sense of dignity and relied on his own skills to reach where he was today.

Henry's situation was similar to Jacob's, so naturally, he wanted to show off his achievements to Jacob since he had found success earlier than Jacob.

Jacob looked at Henry coldly, suddenly showing a hint of impatience. He asked, "Are you done talking?"

Henry said, "Yeah..."
