Chapter 387
"We trusted you, but you tricked us! That's infuriating! You made us seem so mean, too."
The surrounding guests all started laying in on Marco. They looked disdainful and no longer treated Marco like their respected class president. They all took turns to lecture him.
They wanted to make it clear that they had nothing to do with Marco and were innocent in this matter.
Dustin, Shawna's "pig farmer" boyfriend, was someone that even the owner of Majestic Hotel had to treat with respect. How could any of them offend such a person?
In the blink of an eye, Marco turned from an admired and respected person into someone his ex-classmates hated. The guests had done a full 180. It was like Marco had fallen from heaven right into the pits of hell.
"Marco, I didn't realize you had such a fragile ego. You tricked everyone here," Devina said angrily. "I knew that Dustin was never that sort of person. I knew you were framing him from the start!"
Dustin put on a mocking smile at that.
How had everyone changed their attitudes so quickly? They were all such shameless people.
Ten minutes ago, he was being interrogated and insulted by them all. Yet, these same people were currently on his side and telling Marco off.
If he had not shown his power and influence, would they even say a thing in his defense?
Feeling put on the spot, Marco looked pressed in a way he had not looked before. This was the most embarrassing moment in his life.
He had wanted to be admired and looked up to by faking his generosity.
This was especially true when Shawna and Dustin were present because he had so desperately tried to chase after Shawna back in the day.
He wanted to make Shawna regret rejecting him and embarrass them both in public.
Who could have imagined that Dustin had gone from being a pig farmer to someone important and respected? Who could accept such a shocking change in status?
Marco gritted his teeth. He was unable to say a single word. He quietly endured his ex-classmates' lectures.
He was no longer the host here. He had no right to say anything.
He had no idea if he could even make a comeback with Dustin here.
Marco was too far out of Dustin's league.
"Boss, I was wrong. I guarantee that this will never happen again. Please give me a second chance," said Cody pleadingly as he looked at Tucker.
"What are you begging me for?" Tucker's face was icy. "I'm not in charge here."
Cody's face stiffened. Then, he looked at Dustin.

"Sir, please forgive me, just this once. I guarantee that I will do my job diligently. I'll be a great asset to this hotel." Cody bowed deeply before Dustin.
Majestic Hotel was a huge and influential business. Being its
manager meant that he enjoyed a lot of perks as well. He could not lose
all that.
"You dare to beg me for forgiveness?" Dustin's face was frigid. He looked so serious that everyone around him was taken aback.
"This involves the reputation of Majestic Hotel. It's kind enough that I'm not pursuing this matter. Get lost."
Cody looked devastated when he heard that.
He could not bear the reality of this. He could not bear to lose all that he used to have.
He still wanted to try begging Dustin. He would do anything!
"Get out of here!" Dustin's gaze was icy as he shouted. He carried himself with the posture of a king.
Cody felt his blood turn to ice. He was so scared that his face turned ghostly pale.noveldrama
He did not understand how someone could be so frightening.
Cody no longer dared to speak. He walked outside dejectedly.
