Chapter 1596: Humiliation
"What are you saying?"
After hearing Rachel's words, Connor froze, his expression on his face filled with disbelief.
"Jaylen's feelings for me, not many know about it, but he did pursue me!"
Her tone was somewhat helpless.
"Isn't there a blood relationship between you two?"
Connor's tone was filled with shock.
"Jaylen said he doesn't care, but I'm not interested in him!"
She pouted and replied.
As Connor looked at the tall and handsome Jaylen in front of him, he hesitated for a moment, then sighed softly, "Actually, you're right. You're so beautiful and well-built, it's normal for him to be attracted to you."
"Are you praising me?" she asked lightly.
"I suppose so." he whispered.
Moments later, Jaylen walked up to the group, and unsurprisingly, when he saw Connor standing beside Rachel, his expression turned somewhat angry. His gaze seemed as though he wanted to kill Connor, but because Janson was present, Jaylen didn't dare to show his true emotions.
If Janson were to find out that Jaylen had feelings for Rachel, he would likely lose his eligibility to compete for the position of the family head. The Wallace family, being a prestigious clan, cared deeply about appearances.
Jaylen's original plan was to wait for Janson to pass away, then defeat Yeol to become the family head. By that time, he could openly be with Rachel without anyone obstructing him.
However, what he had never expected was Rachel suddenly announcing that she had a boyfriend. So, he took a leave of absence specifically to come back and see who this boyfriend of hers really was.
He walked up to Janson, and with a soft voice and said, "Grandfather."
"Jaylen, you're back?"
Janson smiled faintly and continued, "Sit down and eat. We haven't finished yet..."
"Alright..."
He nodded lightly and sat down at the table, beginning to eat.
Seeing his return, almost everyone gathered around him, initiating conversations with him.
Janson, however, sat in his chair, closed his eyes, and rested.
At this moment, the people in the Wallace family were most curious about the shooting competition, so they started asking about it.
"I heard you won the shooting competition again today. You've won three times in a row, right?"
Harford smiled and asked Jaylen.
"The competition this year was slightly weaker than before, so I managed to win the championship. It's not worth mentioning."
Jaylen remained modest when facing the Wallace family.
"Jaylen, don't be modest. Winning the shooting competition three years in a row is a remarkable achievement. It's a nationwide competition that gathers the best marksmen from all over the country. You've brought honor to our family..."
"Yes, this is no small competition. All the military districts in the country participated!"
"Jaylen is truly amazing. In our family, perhaps only Yeol can be compared to him..."
The crowd gathered around Jaylen, praising him.
After all, the position of the future head of the Wallace family was likely to fall to either Jaylen or Yeol. So, these people were trying to impress him while they had the chance, hoping it might benefit them in the future.
"Rachel, is this guy really your boyfriend?"
At this moment, unexpectedly, Jaylen turned to Rachel and asked.
The people from the Wallace family were taken aback by his question, then they fell silent one by one. They knew the real show was about to begin.
"Yes, this is my boyfriend, Connor!"
Rachel said softly, linking arms with Connor.
When he saw them together, his expression seemed even more unnatural. He glanced at Connor, then said lightly, "I was curious about who your boyfriend would be, but I didn't expect him to be so ordinary. Rachel, when did your taste become so poor?"
This caused all present to fall into a brief silence, their expressions incredulous.
Although the members of the Wallace family had been subtly provoking Connor before, none of them had been as direct as Jaylen. They had all been very discreet in their provocations.
But no one had expected him to start directly humiliating Connor from the beginning. It was clear that he didn't take Connor seriously at all.
After his words, even Janson didn't say much. After all, comparing Connor to the outstanding Jaylen, calling Connor ordinary was quite normal.
"Jaylen, what do you mean by that?"
Rachel, feeling discontent, shouted at him.
"Isn't my meaning clear enough? This man is simply not worthy of you. If you're with him just because you like him, then I really can't understand what about him attracts you!" he said lightly.
In fact, his intention with these words was quite simple, he couldn't figure out what exactly made him lose to Connor.
"Connor..."
Rachel was about to retort to Jaylen.
But Connor reached out to stop her and said expressionlessly, "There are many things about me that attract Rachel, things that you don't have!"
Clearly, his words were also provocative.
Since entering this courtyard, the members of the Wallace family had been trying various ways to humiliate him, which was beginning to irritate him. While he was impersonating Rachel's boyfriend, being repeatedly humiliated was becoming unbearable.
"I don't have them?"
Upon hearing his words, Jaylen couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, then said lightly, "I really haven't seen any qualities in you that I lack!"
"I heard these people saying you won the shooting competition?"
Connor looked at Jaylen and continued.
Everyone from the Wallace family was stunned upon hearing Connor's words.
