I Am the Ruler of All (Kingsley) novel Chapter 387

The fact that Courtney was angry and silent delighted Catherine. "I feel sorry for you, Courtney. Your boyfriend's a loser and an idiot." She held Zeke's arm and bragged, "Look at me. My boyfriend is the heir to his family's company, and he's friends with Will Maslow!" She was upset hearing that Kyle confessed to Courtney the night before. Catherine thought Courtney had the advantage, but she felt a bit better after showing off.

Zeke looked a little horrified. He did say Will was his friend, but that was just a lie he said during a drunken episode. He wasn't even worthy enough to be Will's bodyguard, let alone his friend. Still, the damage was done, and Zeke wanted to look good in front of Courtney, so he bit the bullet and nodded. "That's right. Will's practically my brother. I can ask him to make you a manager of his company if you'd like." He looked around nervously. Coast is clear. He pouted smugly.

Unlike Courtney, Catherine was a stupid gold digger. She had no idea her boyfriend was just boasting. She was leaning on his shoulder, her eyes filled with worship for Zeke. She gushed, "You're so awesome, honey." She rubbed her head against his arm and bragged, "See? My boyfriend is rich and well-connected. You'll never find someone like him in your life!"

Courtney was not even angry anymore, seeing how stupid Catherine was. She was just a single-cell organism to Courtney. Even an amoeba could navigate life better than she could.

Courtney shook her head and told Kingsley, "Let's go shopping." She had just reunited with Kingsley after ten years, so she refused to waste her time on a stupid woman like Catherine. I'll make her pay for insulting my parents and sisters sooner or later.

"Sure." Zeke squinted. "I need to flex on the peasants sometimes. Of course I'll buy whatever you want." He stared at Kingsley and Courtney, who were looking happy. Enjoy the fun while you can. I bet that girl is gonna fall for me once she sees how rich I really am. Every woman loves money.

Courtney noticed that Zeke was leering at her. She put her cup of orange juice down in disgust and told Kingsley, "Let's go, Kingsley. I lost my appetite. These guys disgust me."
