A Life Beyond Limits (Jack Holland) novel Chapter 675

Feena saw Wesley getting carried away and couldn't help but kick him lightly.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

He laughed as he dodged, raising his glass.

"That being said, thank you all for today. It wouldn't have gone so well without your support."

The three clinked glasses and drained them in one go. Wesley continued, "Nina's parents only started taking me seriously because of you all. But now I'm under even more pressure. They're going to double their expectations. Now, they'll expect me to earn 50 thousand to 100 thousand dollars a month—thanks to having such awesome friends like you.

"Back in my university days, the thought often crossed my mind whether I was in a dream. It was as if, in the blink of an eye, everyone I was close to had transformed into legends.

"Eddie and I even had a bet back then—who'd be the first to make ten million. Looking back now, it seems a bit ridiculous... Your success gave us this sky-high ambition, but in reality, it also made us feel hopeless.

"We don't have the kind of dazzling talent you all have. Sometimes, I wonder if I'll ever be able to catch up in this lifetime. In my mind, Phoebe is probably the only one who could ever come close."

Ever since Phoebe entered the direct PhD program at Brightland University, she had been seen as another legendary figure. Her beauty, which even surpassed Feena's, placed her in the same league as Jack and Feena.

Years from now, the three of them might be remembered as The Heroic Trio of Perthter City. To former classmates like Wesley and Eddie, they would become nothing short of legends.

Jack and Feena fell silent, unaware of the weight their success had placed on their old friends.

The three talked late into the night, with Wesley bringing out more bottles as they drank under the stars.

Before they knew it, they were all tipsy.

The night had grown deep.

The students inside gradually said their goodbyes and dispersed. Wesley helped Nina's parents to the reserved hotel to rest.
