Finn Lewis returned to the restaurant and gorged himself again. He hadn’t eaten anything for lunch so he was starving. Watching Finn devour his food, Prince chuckled, “I thought you got your fill from hitting on girls, had no idea you would get hungry too.”

Finn chose to laugh it off, “Look, Daniel Pan might have the right to mock me like this, but not you, a guy who’s hit on a hundred times more girls than I have.”

From the sidelines, Daniel Pan looked a little sadly at Finn, “Oh Mr. Finn, are you implying that I’m undateable?”

“Eh…today’s weather is not bad, very cool.” Finn deflected and changed the subject, glancing outside at the radiant sun. The temperature was probably around 34 or 35 degrees.

“Haha.” Prince laughed loudly. If it weren’t for the Federal restaurant being pretty quiet, he would have attracted a lot of attention with his laughter.

“Damn, I’m going to eat you out of house and home.” Daniel mused, then brusquely ordered two more steaks from the waiter.

“Hey, Mr. Finn, I won’t be around to give you a hand any more, but I guess you won’t need it, right? I mean, your moves on the ladies are so quick. My goddess is now taken.” said Prince, with a sad expression on his face.

“Isn’t your goddess Maria Turner? I remember you telling me that in our freshman year.” Daniel interjected.

“Get lost,” Prince snapped, rolling his eyes, and turned to Finn, “Anyway, we’re not in the same city as Kay Lee anymore, and I really need to go home now. If I don’t, my old man will lose it.”

“Go ahead, go. And just so you know, I’ve managed to get the goddess’s phone number. So watch out!” Finn bragged proudly.

“Holy cow, for real?” Prince and Daniel were both shocked. It was only Finn’s second meeting with Kay Lee. When did it become so easy to get a goddess’s number?

“Of course it’s real. Just wait for me to marry the beauty with money and power,” Finn said confidently. Kay Lee was definitely wealthy and beautiful. Prince and Daniel both gave him the finger. “Yet, I am planning to go home too.

My parents don’t even know about my situation here, and I guess there’ll be plenty to deal with when I return home.”

“Speaking of home, there are issues I need to deal with,” Finn continued to explain to the other two. There was his family situation – he didn’t want to enjoy the high life while his parents worked hard back home. He was unsure how to explain his situation before, but now he figured he’d just wing it. Surely his parents would understand once he’s explained that he’s the president of Flying Horse. Second was about Chloe. She’s almost school-age, and her registration issue needed to be resolved. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to attend school. To solve the registration issue, someone had to go to the police station to apply for adoption, and Finn didn’t qualify for that.

Moreover, Finn thought that it was about time for Chloe to step out of her own world, be with kids her age, and refresh her spirit.

While she appeared carefree every day, Finn knew Chloe was hiding a lot of things. The slightest disturbance would trigger an extreme reaction from her. Seeing how careful she asked him to return the gifts, she perhaps worried that one day Finn would abandon her.

This little one surely had complicated thoughts, and Finn didn’t have much time to take care of her. Fishy Wells and the others also couldn’t always be with her since they were just in their twenties themselves, with no child care experience nor intuition for a child’s thoughts. Even though Chloe was more mature than other children her age, she’s a kid after all.

In the end, he had better leave her to his parents who have all the experience. His mother kept nagging him to find a girlfriend in the university so he could marry her upon graduation and give her a grandchild. While Chloe wasn’t her biological grandchild, she’s still a kid and very sensible. Finn was sure his mother would be delighted to take her in.

“Well, Mr. Finn,” said Prince, “to tell you the truth, we all admire you a lot. It’s not every day that someone at university achieves such success! True, successful individuals like Marshall Paker appear to have achieved success early, but they had resources to begin with. Considering the assets Marshall had when he started his business, he had over half a million. Do you understand the value of half a million in 1998? It’s at least equivalent to several millions today. Could we gather several millions when we graduate?”

Finn nodded in agreement. Many people claimed to start from scratch but actually had some foundation. Those who truly started from the bottom were few and far between. Even in the internet era, which is known for creating quick internet wealth, actual wealthy people were minimal, both domestically and abroad. Even Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the creators of Google, who many considered as self-made men, had a good family background.

For instance, Larry Page’s parents were both university professors in high-income families. When the duo founded Google, they managed to collect Sl million from their families. The value of Sl million in 1998 was a considerable amount. Therefore, people like Finn, who genuinely came from civilian families, were successful, but this usually occurred during midlife.

Finn could be considered exceptional since he achieved such significant success even before graduating from university. After chatting with Prince and Daniel for a while and finishing their meal, Finn drove home. He knew he couldn’t possibly bring all of them home this time, his parents weren’t that open-minded.

Bringing so many girls home might give people the wrong idea. Besides, the villagers would inevitably gossip about it, which his parents might not be able to handle. Therefore, he decided to take only Fishy Wells home. She would adapt because she came from humble backgrounds, unlike the others..
