The Rise of a Master It Starts With Rejection novel Chapter 442

Chapter 442 

“Felix, don’t bother with that fool. Let’s go have a couple of drinks,” George suggested. 

Felix didn’t refuse them. He had nothing else to do at the moment, so he went along for a casual chat to pass the time. 

“I heard that Sherlyn will be performing an opening dance for Mr. Holt Senior. I wonder who her male partner is. I couldn’t find out,” George said offhandedly, making Ryan chuckle. 

“I’m not sure, either, but it definitely won’t be an ordinary man. With the kind of background Sherlyn has, do you think she would pick a nobody for the opening dance? I suspect it’s very likely her future husband.” 

Since the topic was brought up, Felix couldn’t help but be curious. “Why have I never heard of any of you wanting to pursue Sherlyn?” 

Sherlyn had a prominent family background. Ernest, though retired, still wielded influence, and Isaac was a general at the peak of his career. How could no one be interested? 

From a certain perspective, marrying Sherlyn might even be better than marrying Xena in terms of the benefits one would receive. 

Unexpectedly, George’s and Ryan’s expressions turned strange. 

George leaned in and whispered, “Felix, your information is outdated! You really don’t know why no one dares to pursue Sherlyn?” 

Felix rolled his eyes. “Just tell me why!” 

“Because it’s troublesome and highly difficult! Sherlyn’s standards for a partner aren’t the issue. She doesn’t even demand a prestigious family background. But there are three barriers to clear. The first is Sherlyn herself, the second is her father, Isaac, and the third is Mr. Holt Senior!” 

Ryan added, “We young heirs all have some shady pasts, whether it’s flirting with girls or getting into fights. Those are fairly normal for us. But don’t you forget who Mr. Holt Senior and Mr. Holt were. One’s a veteran revolutionary, and the other’s a current general.

“To them, even those minor things would be seen as flaws. Who would dare pursue her? No one could pass those tests. It would just be asking for humiliation.” 

So, that was it. Felix smiled wryly. 

In a family of such a background, such requirements were not unreasonable, especially 

since Sherlyn herself lived up to them, making it reasonable for her to demand such standards.

“Let’s go. The opening dance is about to start. Det’s get to the hall” 

Soon, the front yard was almost empty as everyone gathered in the main hall, Even 

Nala and Xena were there. Everyone would raise their glasses to congratulate Ernest on his birthday after the dance. This was the most important part of the evening, After that, anyone who wished to leave could do so without being impolite. 

“Finnley, who do you think will be dancing the opening with Sherlyn?” Aimee, rubbing Finnley’s chubby hands, asked curiously, 

“I’m not sure, but it must be someone exceptional Rumor has it that whoever dances with Sherlyn is likely her future husband! Think about it. With the status of the Holt family, the man who partnered with Sherlyn must have been approved by both Mr. Hoit Senior and Mr. Holt.” 

“Yes, it’s so intriguing! We are about to find out.”
