The Poor Billionaire

Chapter 65 Laila's Suspicion

Farris started the ignition and drove straight to the Sea Square.

On the way, he asked in a low voice, "Young man, what you are going to do at the Sea Square?"

Horace bit back a chuckle. He found it funny and impressive that Farris had gotten into character so

fast. He had changed from addressing him as 'Mr. Warren' in the morning to 'young man' in the

afternoon. He admired him even more because he didn't make a mistake for once.

'Uncle Farris is such a good actor!' Horace praised him inwardly. He finally replied, "Sir, I'm going to

shop for some clothes for my friend. Do you have any shops to recommend?"

"You want to shop for clothes? You have come to the right person. I have affiliations with some owners

of clothing stores in the Sea Square. I'll introduce them to you. Perhaps they will give you a discount

since I refer you!"

Farris continued to act as if he didn't know Horace.

"Okay, sir. Thank you for your kindness." Horace also put up an act.

"Young man, you don't have to thank me. Remember that you are my new friend. I have continued to

cross paths with you recently. It must be fate!"

Farris chuckled and continued, "Come to think of it. We have met so many times, but we still don't

know much about each other."

After a suspenseful pause, he added, "Let me introduce myself to you first. My name is Farris Rivera.

I'm an average man in this city. People don't know me. I am just struggling to make an honest living

here. Nice to meet you!"

"Sir, my name is Horace Warren. I just graduated from the Zence High School this year. Nice to meet

you too!"

'Oh my God! Farris is really good at pretending. No one would have suspected that he knew me at all.

Even though Macie just mentioned my name, he pretended like he didn't know me.' Horace stared at

him in short.

The moment Horace replied, Macie's enthusiastic voice rang out. "Hello, Mr. Rivera. My name is Macie

Ramos, and I also graduated from the Zence High School recently. It's an honor to meet you!"

The atmosphere in the car became a little awkward for Laila after the others introduced themselves to This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Farris. She was a little shy. However, she plucked up the courage and said, "Hello, Mr. Rivera, I'm Laila

Tran. Horace and Macie are my former classmates. We all graduated this year. Thank you so much for

your help in the last two days."

When Farris heard her words, he waved his hand and said, "Come off it, Laila. You don't need to thank

me. Those were just small kind gestures. I did them because I like Horace. He's a good guy. If another

person had been involved, I wouldn't have given a damn. I must say that you are lucky to be his friend."

Something bulged Macie's mind at this moment. She placed her index finger on her cheek and

murmured, "Farris Rivera? Farris Rivera? This name sounds so familiar. I'm sure I have heard it

somewhere before!"

An alarm suddenly went off in her head. She snapped her fingers and sat up. "Mr. Rivera, are you the

sixth richest man in Rinas? As in, the Farris Rivera?"

Farris could only nod now that she had found him out.

A wave of ecstasy surged through Macie after this unexpected confirmation. With her eyes filled with

admiration, she said, "Mr. Rivera, it's really you. I didn't expect to meet a man like you today. I admire

you so much. You are an inspiration to me!"

"Really?" Farris laughed and added, "Well, I must say that it's surprising that I have a female fan. You

even said I'm an inspiration to you. I like that. You know what? For your admiration, I'll pay for all the

clothes the three of you buy this afternoon!"

"What?" Macie exclaimed excitedly. "Really? Mr. Rivera?"

Macie slapped her cheeks to make sure she wasn't dreaming. Afterward, she thought, 'Oh my God! My

face is indeed the prettiest in the whole world. Finally, it's going to take me places. Even the sixth

richest man thinks highly of me. Ha-ha, Mr. Rivera is so generous. Just because he likes me, he's not

only paying for my clothes but also for Horace's and Laila's. They should count themselves lucky

today!'

'Damn it! Uncle Farris keeps paying all kinds of bills without me asking. He's indeed a considerate man.

His loyalty is second to none!' Horace thought to himself.

Meanwhile, Laila had a suspicious feeling about Farris and his so-called friendship with Horace. She

was a shy woman, but this only meant that she did most of the talking in her head. 'Something doesn't

feel right. Every time Horace is caught in a difficult situation, Mr. Rivera always shows up out of

nowhere. He usually solves the problem by putting rude people in their place. He even paid the bill

yesterday. And now, he has offered to do the same. Are their frequent meetings truly coincidental? Why

do I have this feeling that he's intentionally showing up when Horace needs help?'

The rest of the occupants in the car were oblivious to the thoughts going on in Laila's head. With his

hands on the steering wheel, Farris nodded and said, "Yes, young lady. You are my fan after all. Paying

the bills is my way of showing that I'm grateful for your support."

"Oh, Mr. Rivera, you are such a benevolent and good-looking man. I promise to be your fan for the rest

of my life!" Macie vowed with all seriousness.

"Really? Well, I'm honored!" Farris chuckled childishly. The praises gave him a swollen head.

Shortly after, they arrived at the Sea Square.

"Ah! Look, he's coming! He's coming again!" A beautiful shop attendant, who had just walked out of the

shopping mall shouted when she saw Farris's Rolls-Royce driving through the gate.

Her colleague who was standing beside her asked in a low and confused voice, "Kaylie, who is

coming?"

"The most powerful young man in Rinas is coming. Look, he's in that car right there. Jessa, come with

me. Let's go and say hello to him. If he takes a fancy to you, maybe he would turn your life around!"

Kaylie Blakely said to Jessa Evans in an excited voice and then followed Farris's car without hesitation.

Farris found a spot in the overground parking lot and drove his car there.

When Jessa heard her colleague's words, she followed her and asked, "Kaylie, are you talking about

that awesome man who came to our shop the morning?"

These two women were attendants in the Cartier shop. Kaylie was the one that attended to Horace this

morning. When Farris's car had passed by, she had seen Horace in the front passenger seat.

Although Macie had gotten into the car first, she had gone to the backseat to rest more comfortably. In

order to avoid embarrassment, Horace got on the front passenger seat. Laila had sat beside Macie at

the back.

"Yes, Jessa. That's Mr. Rivera's car. Not only that, the man who came to shop for necklaces this

morning is seated in the front passenger seat!" Kaylie responded with a nod.

"What? Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to say hello immediately. Mr. Warren might fall in love

with me. If I become the girlfriend or get married to such a wealthy man, I wouldn't have to lift a finger

to do any work for the rest of my life!" Jessa instantly became enthusiastic. In a split second, she

thought about all the good things she could gain.

They both trotted towards Farris's car.

By the time the car was properly parked, the two attendants got to the door of the front passenger seat.

As soon as Horace opened the door, Kaylie and Jessa bowed and greeted in unison, "Welcome, Mr.

Warren!"
