The old man ignored Greyson. He didn't even turn to his helper as he stepped into the elevator. With his chin raised haughtily, he stared straight ahead, at the elevator doors that were slowly closing.Greyson stood beside the man. He asked for the floor number. But the man didn't answer him. So he pressed number two. Perhaps the old man wanted to start his search from the lowest floor."I won't thank you." The old man said curtly. He only glanced slightly at the pressed floor number.The reflection of the old man's face could be seen on the elevator wall. He seemed to be sneering at Greyson."No problem," Greyson replied indifferently.The elevator moved up, making subtle vibrations."I'll search all the floors. Are you also going to keep me company?" The old man asked in a challenging tone."I'm worried about your leg." Greyson seemed to be reminding.The old man clucked his tongue, feeling belittled. His legs were strong enough to travel the world. But indeed after all these years,

Greyson saw that the one speaking was Julian. This young man used to be Oliver's loyal follower. He constantly bullied Greyson at every opportunity.Not wanting to make trouble, Greyson ignored him. He wasn't familiar with the other two people either. So, he just nodded slightly at them and passed by the three of them.Julian felt annoyed at being ignored. He stared at Greyson's retreating back with a sneer. "Look. Nothing has changed from him. It's been seven years since graduation and he's still bragging about his stupidity."Then Julian glanced at the car that Greyson had been driving and spat. "Damn, cheap car. He's not ashamed to bring it to a place like this.""I pity Evelyn. Why did she want to be Greyson's girlfriend for a year? In the end, she was embarrassed herself. Good thing there's Oliver who's willing to replace that fool." Emily regretted Evelyn's fate."Well, it's a good thing they broke up. Otherwise, maybe Evelyn wouldn't have dared to show her face again this year.

"Mr. Manager, since it's the restaurant's fault, I think you should give us a replacement room." Oliver, who heard there was a problem, spoke up. "It doesn't matter if it's more expensive, I'll give you extra payment."The restaurant manager shook his head in despair. "Sir, it's very crowded. We're running out of room. Even the outside of the restaurant has no empty seats. Please forgive us. The customer who has reserved this place is an important person. We can't possibly send him away.""And you think you can tell us all to leave?" Oliver felt offended. There weren't many who could patronize him."Sir, we will compensate you for your losses." The manager could only try to persuade. The fault was indeed on their side.Tristan tried to mediate. He knew how irritable Oliver was."It's not a matter of compensation. Wouldn't it be a shame if we all had to leave this place? Maybe you could check the guest list one more time." The employee behind the manager whispered something. They talk

The manager's expression became full of contempt as soon as Oliver's sentence ended.What a person who thinks too highly of himself. Does this person not know the identity of his own friend?"Of course. As the owner of this restaurant, Mr. Hayes deserves the best service. We learned of his arrival too late to cause any misunderstanding." The restaurant manager felt the need to explain.Do you think I'm fascinated by the surname Brooks? It's not comparable to the surname of their boss.Everyone immediately started making a fuss. Greyson Hayes owns the most famous restaurant in town? A female classmate immediately said. "Manager, maybe you recognized the wrong person. Who hasn't heard of the extraordinary Hayes family? But Greyson just happens to have the same surname. We've known him for years. There's no way he's from that famous family."Some people immediately nodded in agreement. Some people were still confused. No one believed it. But some considered the manager's respectful atti

"I don't want to live with anyone." Greyson made his decision, ignoring Matt's disappointed expression.But not so with Jacob. He said in an indifferent tone. "You can't kick out your own great uncle. So, this neighbor guy has to go.""This isn't fair." Matt felt like he had been wronged."It's fair enough on a familial level." Jacob chuckled as he leaned back in his chair."What do you mean by family fair?" Matt said fiercely. The old man in front of him was as expected, annoying."We're family. That somehow takes precedence over friends or neighbors." Jacob said with a proud tone of having won this competition."Mr. Hayes-""Matt, go home," Greyson cut in quickly. He didn't understand how these two people could be so stubborn."I-"Greyson quickly dragged Matt out of the dining room and onto the main door."Greyson, aren't we friends? Friends wouldn't treat me like this." Matt was still trying to protest.Greyson picked up Matt's coat hanging near the door and threw it at the man's
