Chapter 762
It was their second day managing the Mayhill Pig Farm.
Patricia felt bad for Dustin.
The unfair bet would be the end of their time together.
"What's your plan?" she asked him. She wondered if he had any thoughts about this.
"Just go with the flow," Dustin said with a smile.
Patricia said nothing more.
Maybe he had already given up since the chances were so slim.
"The pig farm is in terrible shape. If we want to keep it running, we'll need to renovate," Patricia said. “I have a senior from school who's a manager at a construction materials company in Hattan. Let's go see if we can get a good deal on some supplies."noveldrama
Dustin agreed without hesitation.
The two then set off from Mayhill Pig Farm and headed to the city center of Hattan.
Before leaving, Dustin glanced at the desolate landscape around Mayhill and quietly made a phone call.
"I'm giving you one day. When I get back, I want to see results," he said on the phone.
It was nearly noon by the time they arrived at a construction materials company in Hattan.
After explaining the purpose of their visit to the receptionist, she directed them to the appropriate floor.
Patricia knocked on the door of the general manager's office.
"Come in," a voice said from inside.
When they pushed the door open, they saw a sharply dressed young man sitting behind a desk.
"Well, well, if it isn't the campus belle herself. What an unexpected surprise!" he said with a smirk when he saw Patricia.
"Sean, it's been so long." Patricia forced out a smile.
It was clear they were not particularly close.
"Have a seat, both of you," Sean Lloyd said.
"I heard you're out in the countryside raising pigs at Mayhill now. Is that true?"
Patricia stiffened.
"Who told you that?"
"Your cousin, Alex. He mentioned it in our alumni group chat, and now the whole school knows."
Patricia's face darkened. This was humiliating.

Alex was truly despicable. He was always eager to embarrass her.
"Actually, I came here today to ask for a favor," said Patricia and forced out another smile.
"For the campus belle? Of course, I'll help however I can."
"Well... I

“Hmm.....” Sean furrowed his brows as if this was a challenging task for him.
His gaze flitted toward Dustin.
"So, this is your friend from Grayvale. Dustin, right?" His gaze was not particularly friendly.
"I am," Dustin answered for himself.
"You're quite skilled." Sean smiled,
but there was no warmth in his smile, "Back in high school, Patricia was every guy's dream girl. Who would've thought she'd end up with you?"
“We're just friends," Dustin said calmly.
He could already tell that Sean did not welcome him.
"Come here. Let's talk about those construction materials." Sean motioned for Dustin to step closer.
Dustin approached.
"You know, Alex and I are actually pretty good friends." Sean lowered his voice as
a smirk played on his lips.
Dustin raised an eyebrow.
It was no wonder he had that attitude.
"Patricia, let's go,” said Dustin and turned to Patricia.
"Go?" Patricia looked confused.
"Sean, what did you say to him?"
"Hm..." Sean leaned back in his chair and looked at her with a smug expression.
What do you think?
