Riches in Disguise

Chapter 29

Liam followed suit. "No worries, Will. We'll leave with you."

As I said that, I walked right to the door.

"There are so many dishes here, so you can just take whatever you want and eat over there. Why are you sulking?"

"I know, right? He should be thankful that he could even be here. Why is he showing an attitude?"

"People are finally taking some notice of him. Shouldn't he at least put on an act?"

I continued walking and left the private room.
