Chapter 8 Relying On Others

• Marius's face paled with anger, ready to retort, but he felt the man before him seemed strangely familiar.
• Not certain who he was, he chose not to speak further.
• Drawen didn't look at him again. He turned and walked toward the luxury car parked by the roadside.
• Only after watching the car drive off did Marius realize the man had just defended Estelle.
• He sneered and muttered to himself, "I didn't expect Estelle to be gone for such a short time and already have another man stepping in for her. I thought she was so pure!"
• When Drawen's car reached the next intersection, it suddenly screeched to a stop.
• Drawen frowned. “What’s going on?”
• The driver hesitated, looking at the person in front of the car. "Drawen, someone is stopping the car."
• Hearing that, Drawen turned his head to look.
• When he saw who it was, he immediately got out. “Estelle? Why are you stopping the car?"
• I opened my mouth, ready to thank him for helping me with Marius.
• But before I could speak, Drawen said first, “Don't worry, I've already warned him. That kind of person, it's better for you to stay away.”
• I blinked in surprise, then asked in confusion, “How do you even know about us…”
• It had been years since I last saw Drawen. How could he know that I had left Marius?
• His eyes flickered briefly before he replied evenly, “Don’t overthink it. I’m just observant. If there wasn’t bad blood between you two, you wouldn’t have been arguing like that.”
• The driver in the driver's seat stuck his head out of the window, listening to Drawen's words. He thought to himself: Clearly, it was information gathered in secret, but now it's become sensitive intuition.
• I didn’t question Drawen’s answer. After thanking him, I left.
• At the job fair.
• Wearing a neat professional suit, I moved through the crowd, searching for opportunities to help the company grow.
• In the blink of an eye, a familiar figure appeared in my line of sight.
• In the distance, Drawen was surrounded by a group of people, standing in the middle, and everyone was handing him their business cards, his assistant smiling as she collected them one by one.
• As I hesitated on whether to approach him, I overheard whispers nearby.
• "That's the young prince of Noble, managing such a big company at such a young age, truly amazing."
• “Don’t be fooled by his youth. His family’s business skills are unmatched in the industry.”
• "Yes, the prince's methods are truly unmatched!"
• I froze in my tracks, eyes widening in disbelief.
• The prince of Noble? Drawen?
• At the same time, Marius spotted Drawen and learned his identity from a nearby boss.
• Marius exclaimed in shock. “He… he’s from Noble?!”
• The boss nodded. “Yes, that's the prince of Noble. I’d better go speak with him.”
• Thinking about how Drawen had helped me before, Marius’s eyes darkened with jealousy.
• When Estelle's parents were alive, she could have anything she wanted easily. Now, with a man like him backing her up, I really underestimated her!
• He gritted his teeth. “A woman who just got out of prison, and she can get the prince of Noble to stand up for her? Shameless.”
• Feeling a sharp gaze on him, Drawen turned and spotted Marius.
• Lowering his eyes for a moment, he let a faint smile curl his lips, then casually led the group toward Marius.
• When he reached Marius, Drawen pretended to be surprised and said, "Isn't this Mr. Marius? You're also here for the job fair."
• Marius frowned in suspicion.
• Seeing this, someone nearby asked curiously, “Mr. Drawen, you know Mr. Marius?”
• Drawen raised an eyebrow. “Not really. I’ve just heard people say that Mr. Marius from Creations got to where he is today by relying on others, so I know a bit.”
• The crowd reacted with surprise, exchanging knowing glances.
• Although no one said anything, the exchange of glances between them made their doubts about Marius clear.
• Marius’s face went pale. He clenched his fists, glaring at Drawen. “Stop slandering me!”
• Drawen gave a cool smirk. “Slandering? Mr. Marius, you should know what you’ve done.”
• “If you don’t have the skill, it’s better not to embarrass yourself in public or let people start saying you’re worse than a woman.”
• If it weren’t for Estelle, he would have exposed Marius completely.
• Struggling to contain his anger, Marius was provoked by the murmurs around him and moved to hit Drawen.
• The people around were stunned, unable to believe what they were seeing.
• Drawen instinctively raised his hand to block, but seeing someone running toward them from the corner of his eye, he held back.
