The young man looked elegant. He was smiling brightly. Vincent, who had always been arrogant, tidied his suit and squeezed out a pretentious smile and replied, "Yes. I'm here to congratulate Master Sue on his 70th birthday. Vanessa and I are classmates and also friends. It seems that she is not here yet."
As for Petty, she was fangirling at this young man. She took a glance at Vincent and felt that this young man was much more charming than Vincent.
The young man took a glance at Petty and smiled. Upon that, Petty had butterflies in her stomach. She was so excited she almost exclaimed. The young man smiled and reached out his right hand to Vincent for a handshake, saying, "I'm Andrew Loh. My grandfather is a friend of Master Sue for many years. I have also known Vanessa since we were knee-high."
"Oh, you're Vanessa's childhood friend!" Petty said. She was still fangirling at Andrew. Vincent was displeased by this.
"Well, you can put it that way," Andrew chuckled. He noticed Vincent's displeasure. Therefore, he quickly invited them into the hotel. "There are still a lot of guests coming. Young Master Wu, this way please!"
Vincent nodded and walked in with Petty. He was both unhappy and angry. It was not because Andrew had offended him. It was merely because Andrew was too kind to him and had a perfect attitude. He was handsome and elegant with an influential family background. In addition, he was Vanessa's childhood friend.
Vincent, who had always been proud of himself as a Young Master, felt that he was outclassed by Andrew. At that moment, he felt that Andrew was more annoying than Zachary.
Perhaps it was out of his hostility towards Andrew, before entering, Vincent turned to Andrew and said with a smile, "Master Sue's birthday party is an important event. It will not be good if someone causes trouble here. Am I right, Mr. Loh?"
Andrew, with a smile on his face, followed Vincent's gaze and saw an underdressed guy with a bag on his back standing at the main entrance of La Belle Hotel.
Andrew's face became solemn. He walked over to Zachary and looked at him with a disdainful look. He was no longer smiling.
"Please leave right now. This isn't where you belong!"
Zachary turned around and was about to explain, but his face turned grim when he saw the gaze Andrew was giving him.
Zachary could sense that this guy standing in front of him was extremely condescending. This guy was looking at him with such disdain as if his presence alone was a disgrace.
Zachary was very uncomfortable upon being stared at like that. He hated this attitude very much. As a 'Herbal King', he was absolutely qualified to look down on most people. However, he never treated others with this attitude. He even set a rule to refuse to treat arrogant people like this guy because he thought that everyone should be treated equally.
"Didn't you hear what I said? Don't try my patience. Otherwise, I'll make you suffer." Seeing Zachary standing still, Andrew's tone grew colder.
Zachary didn't back down, he stared at Andrew coldly. "I'm sorry, you have no rights to throw me out. I am Vanessa's friend and she invited me here."
"You're lying. It's impossible for Vanessa to befriend a lowlife. I won't allow her to have such a friend," Andrew said harshly.
"A lowlife?" Zachary repeated his words. Then, he said coldly, "A guy who uses this word to describe others is the real low-life. Moreover, Vanessa doesn't need your permission on what kind of friends she can make."
"You don't know the relationship between Vanessa and I. I don't want to waste any more time on you. The more you talk and the longer you stay here, the more serious the consequences would be for you," Andrew said arrogantly.
"Oh, really? I'd like to see what the consequences are," Zachary challenged Andrew. He was not afraid of Andrew at all.
"You..."
Andrew was furious. He waved for the security guard to come over. He looked at Zachary coldly with disdain.
"Don't let him appear in front of me again. Remember to teach this lowlife a lesson."
Two burly and menacing-looking security guards quickly came over and grabbed Zachary's arms fiercely. They were about to throw him out.
Zachary's expression darkened. He unleashed his power that he had been refining for the past few days. A strong power flowed out from his arms and bounced the two burly security guards away. The guards staggered a few steps back and fell to the ground.
"Is this how you treat your guests at your hotel?" Zachary roared coldly.
"Take him away!" Andrew frowned, looking a little impatient. He didn't want the incident to affect his reception of other guests.
More than a dozen security guards came out and surrounded Zachary. They swung rubber batons in their hands and rushed towards Zachary like hungry wolves.
Looking at those burly security guards, Zachary's face became grave. He contracted the muscles in his arms and they tensed up.
"Hurry up! I don't want to waste my time!" Andrew demanded coldly while waving his hand, signaling the security guards to pick up their pace.
'Whoosh!'
The batons were flung towards Zachary with a whooshing sound.
"Stop!"
At this moment, an angry shout sounded, accompanied by the sound of pair of high heels' ticktack.
Looking in the direction of the voice, they saw Vanessa in a beige dress. Vanessa had just parked her car and was ready to enter the hotel with Zachary. Unexpectedly, she saw more than a dozen security guards besieging Zachary when she approached.
"What are you doing? Is this how you treat the guests?" Vanessa was furious.
The security guards recognized Miss Sue. They looked at Andrew and Vanessa, unsure of what to do next.
The leader of the security guards, who was in his 30s, was clever enough to understand the situation. He stepped forward and explained to Vanessa immediately, "Miss Sue, this is just a misunderstanding. We didn't know this gentleman is a guest!"
"Misunderstanding?" Vanessa raised her voice and her face darkened. "How can you simply beat him even if he is not a guest?"
Vanessa looked at Zachary with concern and asked, "Zachary, did they hurt you? Are you okay?"
Zachary shook his head and glanced at Andrew without a word. Andrew obviously had a close relationship with the Sue family. Otherwise, they wouldn't ask him to welcome the guests. Zachary did not want to put Vanessa in a difficult situation.
