Chapter 92
“That’s right, Elvira. His joke is so big. How are you going to clean up the mess? You’re surnamed Willis after all. You represent the Willis family! If you embarrass yourself, you’re en barrassing the Willis family! Judy said as she looked at Elvira with a disapproving expression.
“Elvira, you’re causing trouble again. Didn’t I warn you? Even if you want to be in the limelight, I won’t allow you to mess around in school!” Lily immediately appeared. Her sharp scolding made everyone want to cover their ears, and their expressions were even more ferocious.
“That’s right! I was wondering why someone would take out 200 million dollars to buy a dance. Isn’t that crazy?” The person
beside him said.
“Why would such a poor man come to such an occasion to embarrass himself? 200 million dollars? Who do you think are?” another one said.
“Everyone should understand Elvira, okay? Today, no one is willing to bid for her. She’s already embarrassed enough. So she came up with this idea just to save some face. But Elvira, you used the wrong method. You’ll only embarrass yourself more.” another one said.
Elvira frowned slightly. It did not matter what others said about her, but she did not want Zach to be teased because of her.
Just as everyone thought that Zach was a fool, a figure suddenly appeared and rushed over as fast as he could. Everyone saw the headmaster, who had always been arrogant, bend down and run in front of Zach with a flattering expression. His voice was respectful and loud.
“Mr. Gilbert, it’s really you! I’ve always wanted to invite you to attend the school’s 100th anniversary, but I haven’t been able to see you. I didn’t expect you to come here yourself. Lily, what are you shouting about? This is Mr. Gilbert of the Gilbert Group! Shut your stinky mouth!” the principal said.
He nodded and bowed as he spoke to Zach obsequiously.
Everyone was stunned by the principal’s reaction. For a moment, they did not know if this was a show.
Zach waved his hand and the assistant immediately handed over the cheque. This is 200 million dollars. I want to dance the opening dance with Elviral Is there a problem? Zach said.
“No problem, no problem. This opening dance will definitely be yours, Mr. Gilbert, and Ms. Willis.” The principal’s humble appearance was almost as low as dust.
Everyone present was shocked as they looked at Elvira in disbelief. The person who had deliberately slandered Elvira felt extremely embarrassed. He wished he could find a hole to hide in now.
Calvin and Judy were even more confused as if they still didn’t know what had happened. “What is the headmaster doing? Bowing down to a poor loser? Am I dreaming, or is the headmaster dreaming?‘ they thought.
“Oh, or is Mr. Kennedy willing to continue bidding for the Willis family’s illegitimate daughter, Judy? I’ll wait and see.” Zach’s nonchalant gaze swept across Calvin and Judy standing in the middle of the dance floor. The corners of his mouth curled into a mocking smile.
With that one sentence, Calvin and Judy had nowhere to hide. The two of them stood there as if they were being whipped and dismembered. They were in a sorry state at that time.
Not to mention 200 million dollars; even if it exceeded two million dollars, Calvin could not afford it!
Judy felt even more humiliated when she felt the gazes of her alumni!
Zach walked towards Elvira and extended his hand to her. He asked respectfully and gently, “Elvira, are you willing to give

me this chance to daiice with you?”
Elvira smiled and put her hand in Zach’s. “Of course!”
‘Of course. I’m willing to dance with my husband,‘ Elvira though
Zach held Elvira’s hand and walked to the center of the dance floor. Looking at Calvin and Judy, who were still standing in the middle, Elvira said with a smile, “Aren’t you guys leaving? Do you want to increase the price? It doesn’t need to be too. much. Add one dollar and the opening dance will belong to your sweetheart, Judy.”
It was easy to add one dollar, but it also depended on how it was added. Based on 200 million dollars, not to mention adding one dollar, Calvin could not even afford one more cent
Calvin and Judy were extremely embarrassed. Judy wanted to say something, but Calvin pulled her away.
At a time like this, saying anything else would just be more embarrassing!
Everyone’s gaze seemed to be cutting the two of them into pieces. They had just been so glorious, but now they were so embarrassed. Judy was about to cry. She did not believe Elvira married Zach. She wanted to go back and continue arguing. but she was forcefully pulled away by Calvin. “Isn’t it embarrassing enough? Let’s go back first!” Calvin said.
“Did the headmaster get the wrong person? How could Elvira marry Mr. Gilbert? With the development of makeup skills, perhaps Elvira has seen Mr. Gilbert before and asked someone else to impersonate Mr. Gilbert!” Judy refused to believe that Elvira had found such a rich husband.
“Regardless of what you say, you will only make us more embarrassed! Go back!” Calvin did not want to believe that Elvira’s Inisband was better than him. This matter concerned his dignity.
But if he went back now, it would only be more embarrassing.
Calvin wanted to leave the banquet immediately. Judy grabbed him and said, “Calvin, since that man is a liar, we have to let everyone see his true colors! We can’t let him deceive everyone!
I’ll not leave! I have spent a lot of effort to ruin Elvira’s reputation today. I’ll definitely not let go of such a good opportunity so easily! Judy thought.
Seeing that Calvin still wanted to leave, Judy continued, “Zoey is still inside. She followed us here. If anything happens to her, we will be to blame.”
When Calvin heard her say this, he hesitated and did not insist on leaving. However, he felt that it was too embarrassing. He could not stay in the banquet hall anymore, so he went out to find a quiet place to rest.
Zory was mesmerized by Zach who was like a god. She had even forgotten everything around her. All she could see was Zach. It was not until Zach and Elvira were about to dance together that Zoey came back to her senses and stared at Elvira in disbelief.
As the music started, Zach hugged Elvira’s waist with one hand and held her hand with the other. Their gazes met in the air.
“Mr. Gilbert? The Gilbert Group? Don’t you owe me an explanation?” Elvira tilted her head and looked at the smile on Zach’s face, having no intention of blaming him.
“T’m sorry, Elvira I should have told you the truth long ago. I hope you can forgive me for hiding it from you. I promise! won’t do it again,” Zach said sincerely. His eyes were filled with guilt and love.
“I don’t blame you. We had no choice but to get married. Neither of us knows each other well. We just lack an understanding of each other. Now that I know that my husband is a billionaire, can’t be happier. I forgot to tell you that I’m a money- grubber, Elvira said half–jokingly.
