Wendy was so thankful to Casper that she was tearing up a little.
Casper grinned calmly.
âItâs nothing. Just call me if your dad needs extra money for his operation. You can take your time paying me back,â said Casper.
Wendy nodded. As she thanked him endlessly, she shared that the money was sufficient for now. She also promised to turn to him should the need to borrow more money arose.
Casper grinned and treated everyone to a meal in Tycoon.
After that, everyone returned to the university.
Felix and Wendy went on a date. The two of them held hands and enjoyed some time alone as they strolled around.
Casper and Colton returned to their dorm.
All they saw was Remy lying on his bed and playing on his phone.
He showed no intention of even acknowledging the two of them.
Casper and Colton turned to one another. Both were speechless.
Just then, Casperâs phone rang. He checked the screen and noted that the call was from the clubâs president.
He picked up the call.
âI have a great job for you. Hurry over now!â said the president before he hung up right away.
Casper was stunned.
A great job? For me?
Casper left the dorm while being a little curious. He headed over to the table tennis court.
The first thing he saw was Sarah and the others staring discriminatingly at him.
He grinned bitterly at that.
âDo I need to go pick the balls up today?â
âNo, you donât. Youâll do that tomorrow. I have an important mission for you today,â said Sarah as her eyes shone in distaste.
Casper was truly curious then. He didnât understand what was going on.
âHereâs the thing. The family is forcing my aunt to go on a blind date, but she doesnât want to go, so you will be her fake boyfriend. You are perfect for the job, but youâll need a new suit. I bought it for you, and you can keep it. Itâll be your reward for going on this mission,â informed Sarah. She expected him to thank her and cry in appreciation, but he did none of that.
âThis outfit is very expensive and selling it will get you a yearâs worth of groceries,â added Sarah.
Casper remained unmoved.
Sarah secretly dissed, What an assh*le. I gave you something so great, and youâre not even going to thank me?
She didnât say anything aloud despite her complaints. Instead, she turned to Fabian, whose family was rich.
âFabian, please drop us off,â requested Sarah.
Her sweet, coquettish tone got Fabianâs heart to stir endlessly. He thought, You flirty little thing. I am so messing with you tonight.
âNo problem, letâs go.â
Sarah and Fabian got into the car while Casper stood in the same spot.
âHey, hurry up, you penniless fool. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you. You likely wonât sit in a car this nice again, so what are you waiting for? Treasure this opportunity and hop in!â
Casper grinned exasperatedly, but he got into the car, anyway.
The car made a beeline to a branded clothing store.
Casper got a new haircut and changed into the nice outfit Sarah gave him earlier. Sarah couldnât help swooning a little when he exited the changing room. What a waste. He is so handsome, but all that is wasted on someone penniless.
The three of them got into the car once more.
Sarah and Fabian sat in the front seat while Casper sat in the backseat.
Fabian couldnât help voicing out at that moment.
âSarah, your aunt isnât going to slip up or something and fall for this dude, is she?â
âEw! What are you bullsh*tting about? She is great, and sheâs not gonna fall for someone like that poor sap.â
The two of them chatted the entire way to the mansion.
The second Sarah got out of the car, she turned to Casper and warned, âDonât try to get any funny ideas about my aunt. Iâve told her all about how poor you are before I came, so there is no way sheâd ever fall for you!â
Casper shook his head in exasperation without saying anything.
All three of them went into the mansion and saw a sexy woman in her mid-twenties. She had a swimsuit on and was in the pool while wearing her sunglasses. She looked relaxed as she flipped the magazine in her hand.
The womanâs curves were on point, and her breasts were full. Those long legs and round butt only became more attractive in her swimsuit.
Fabianâs eyes bulged at the sight of her.
That was the first time he met Sarahâs aunt. I didnât realize that she is so young and beautiful. Holy cr*p, that is so sexy that itâs criminal!
Casper, however, remained unfazed. Sarahâs aunt was, undeniably, a beautiful woman, and her figure was attractive. Still, after his encounter with Victoria, Casper had become immune to othersâ beauty.
âI got the dude for you, Aunt. Thatâs him,â said Sarah while pointing at Casper.
Sarahâs aunt was still inside the pool at the time. She put her magazine away and took her sunglasses off to check Casper out.
Any woman would enjoy the company of a handsome man, and Sarahâs aunt was no different. That being said, she had already heard about how Casper was supposedly penniless and knew that Sarah was the one who bought the outfit he had on.
Her eyes shone with a little discrimination as she mentally regarded Casper as a plaything. She stared like she was a queen looking at her slave.
âOkay, then you and your boyfriend should leave, Sarah. I need to head over for the blind date as well,â
said Sarahâs aunt.
Sarah nodded and replied, âOkay.â
After that, she turned to Casper and reminded, âRemember who you are, you pauper. You are only a fake, so donât try anything funny. Women like my aunt are exquisite, and youâre not worthy of her!â
Sarahâs glare reduced Casper into a nobody.
Her auntâs name was Emily Goldstein.
Emily didnât comment on anything at that moment. She simply stared at Sarah and Fabian for a while before shifting her gaze to Casper.
âOkay, Iâll be leaving now. Bye,â said Sarah after she nodded a little.
âHave a safe trip home. Do drop by and hang out when youâre free,â offered Emily.
Sarah nodded and grabbed Fabianâs hand as she dragged him away.
Fabian kept turning around and staring at Emily the entire time.
It took a while before they were out of sight.
Emily turned her attention to Casper and commented, âI heard from Sarah that you are very poor and are working hard to get rich. Is that true?â
Casper nodded in exasperation.
Emily got out of the swimming pool. Her swimsuit was still dripping, which made it look like she was glowing under the Sun.
âWait here. I need to go change. Also, donât touch anything. You canât afford to pay for anything you break,â warned Emily proudly before she walked toward the mansion.
It didnât take long before she came back out. She had a fashionable dress on, and everything on her was branded. She didnât have any make-up on her at that moment, but she still looked stunning.
âIâll claw your penniless eyes out of those sockets if you keep staring,â said Emily.
Her distant tone got Casper a little annoyed. He was simply admiring her beauty. Isnât that beautiful things are meant to be? Admired and stared?
Despite his thoughts, Casper never said a word.
Emily left to drive her car up. She had a white, mid-range Maserati, which was considered pretty luxurious.
