The Richest Heir CHAPTER 58
"Caleb...""Caleb..."Feeling a gentle shaking on his arm, Caleb slowly opened his eyes. At first, everything seemed a bit hazy as he looked up at Tommy, who was staring down at him with Jake beside him, wearing a small smile."Caleb, get up. Are you planning on sleeping here till morning? The lecture's over, the professor has left, and so has the rest of the class," Tommy said."Yeah, man, you sleep like the dead. We've been trying to wake you up for the last ten minutes," Jake added.Caleb rubbed his eyes and looked around the now-empty classroom. Indeed, it was deserted, with only the three of them remaining."I can't believe I fell asleep..." Caleb mumbled."Come on, hurry up, we're going to the bar, remember to get some drinks with the girls!" Tommy exclaimed with excitement as he picked up his backpack and pulled it over his shoulders."Jackie is waiting outside the campus for us, and it isn't nice to keep a lady waiting," he added with a huge smile."Ladies, Tommy... Ladies," J
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 59
Caleb glanced at Jackie before lowering his eyes to the ground. He hadn't been interested in going to the bar in the first place. His agreement to come was merely to avoid upsetting Tommy or Jake. Besides, Jackie's unwelcoming attitude hinted that her friends might be equally inhospitable. It seemed best for him to leave."Alright.....""Wait a minute!" Tommy finally uttered, stopping them in their tracks.Tommy grabbed Caleb by the arm, wearing a helpless expression.Caleb stopped and turned to look at him.Tommy had invited his friend to the bar for drinks with the hope of introducing him to one of Jackie's friends. He longed for someone to come into Caleb's life, who could see past the poor exterior and appreciate his good heart. Someone who was better than Tracy. If Caleb left, what was the point of going to the bar?Jake forcefully pushed Tommy's hand away, which was still holding onto Caleb's arm."Didn't you just hear what your so-called girlfriend said about our friend? How
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 60
"Where are you, Jackie? Alice and I have been waiting at the bar for the last twenty minutes, even Sophia is late. Weren't you supposed to introduce us to some handsome guy? Where are they, and where are you?""There is no handsome guy. He's a good-for-nothing trash, not worth introducing to anyone," Jackie replied harshly, her gaze fixed on Caleb with hatred in her eyes."Good for nothing trash. What are you talking about, Jackie?" Suzie asked in a puzzled tone."Don't ask...anyways, today's plan has been canceled, so I'm heading towards my dormitory. Why don't you guys come over?" Jackie replied with a sigh as she took another look at Tommy."What?! What do you mean canceled? Are you kidding me right now? Do you know how packed this bar is right now? But Alice and I managed to get a table, and we've ordered wine! You just can't change plans last minute, Jackie!" Suzie said in a frustrated tone."And if you don't come right now, Jackie, with that rich boyfriend of yours, who will pay
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 61
"Jake, it's okay. I don't need an apology. Since it was my idea to invite all of you to the bar for drinks today, then I think it's only right that I should pay. Besides, I'm sure Jackie didn't mean it when she said those words about me. So, it's better to forget it and enjoy the rest of the evening," Caleb suddenly said.He was grateful to Jake for sticking up for him, but at the same time, he didn't want Tommy's feelings to be hurt. He knew how much he liked Jackie.Jackie, on the other hand, had her jaw slightly open after she heard Caleb's words. She was shocked, to say the least. She had never expected him to defend her, after she had been so rude to him. She looked at Caleb with narrowed eyes, but he totally ignored her as he checked the time on his mobile.Time was ticking.In reality, Caleb couldn't care less if Jackie apologized or not. She meant nothing to him. He only wanted to go to the bar to get the supposed fun evening over and done with so that he could quickly go ba

You know how she is. She doesn't really like these types of places, so who knows if she even bothers to turn up," Alice explained.Suzie nodded in agreement. "Yeah, don't even know why you're friends with her. She barely talks to any of us anyway."Caleb listened with a small smile. If they were talking about his fiancée Sophia, then he couldn't help but think that they had at least one thing in common – both of them didn't like bars.He smiled at the thought.The chatter around the table continued, although Jake and Caleb remained quiet.Jackie took a sip from her wine glass and scanned the bar until her eyes fell on a woman walking in through the doors."Oh, look, Cassie's here!"Cassie gracefully navigated through a few drunk guys who offered some crude comments, but she simply ignored them.Dressed in a dark navy blue jumpsuit with a silver belt, large hoop earrings, and stylish heeled boots, she exuded confidence. Her makeup was impeccable, and her hair was tied in a high ponytai

Amanda stormed out of the room, leaving Sophia alone with a mix of frustration and uncertainty. Slowly, she picked up her mobile and searched for his name in the contacts before dialing his number.HALF AN HOUR EARLIER Kenneth grabbed Tracy's hand and guided her towards a couch at the far end, with Jessica and the rest of the group trailing behind. The waiter, notebook in hand, delivered a straightforward message, "Sir, unless you order wine totaling at least 500 dollars, I will have to ask you to vacate this area."Kenneth nodded his head. He already knew the rule of ',The Bar', and he promptly contributed to the wine order.In the lively atmosphere of the upscale venue, Kenneth savored his drink, immersed in the vibrant night. Suddenly, a nudge from Max, a friend of his directed to a table on the other side."Isn't that Cassie and Jackie? And wait, who's that guy with Cassie? He looks kind of familiar," Max remarked.Squinting, Kenneth tried to identify the figure, Tracy gasped,
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 64
Caleb stared at his best friend, taken aback by the abrupt request. How could he tell Tommy about his engagement without making him and Jake feel betrayed?"Well...um... since we've just met, I don't mind being friends with Caleb," Carrie said with a small smile.Tommy grinned widely. His plan was working.Tommy then looked at Caleb, nudging him slightly."Well, don't just sit there, do something! You've got a great girl interested in being your friend, and who knows where this friendship may lead...don't ket this opportunity slip away buddy" he said in a low voice, raising his eyebrows up and down, hinting at him."Tommy....I..." Caleb began, but Tommy didn't let him finish his sentence."Caleb, hurry up and add her to the WeFriends app. Then you can chat with her more often, get to know each other better, and maybe in the future, there could be more than friendship," he whispered with excitement.Caleb just stared at him, and then at Carrie. She had over heard Tommy saying to add h
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 65
As the revelation unfolded, Cassie's disbelief turned into a mixture of confusion and disappointment. She couldn't understand how Caleb, who had offered to buy the drinks in the bar, could in reality, be living a life of a poor delivery boy.Meanwhile, Suzie, who had been listening to the whole conversation, sighed in relief that she hadn't approached Caleb earlier. The revelation about Caleb's poor financial status left her feeling grateful that she hadn't approached him earlier when she heard he was buying the drinks. Reflecting on the situation, she realized that she could have have been the one in the embarrassing situation, Cassie was in now.Amidst the shock and reactions, Caleb observed Cassie's response closely, realizing that the truth about his identity had left her far from happy.Cassie blinked in disbelief, her mind struggling to process Tracy's revelation. She couldn't fathom that the man she had been flirting, chatting, and laughing with for the last half-hour was a me
