The God of War Chapter 27

Reston District.

Aleena helped Albert to bask in the sunshine in the small square.

Many neighbors pointed at them.

“Well, Aleena, why did you come out today?”

A middle-aged woman who was about the same age as Aleena ridiculed, “By the way, I heard that

Jorge is back? Does he live here?”

Aleena forced a smile, extremely disgraced.

Jorge was such a good-for-nothing. If he didn’t come back, they could think he was dead. But now, the

whole family was embarrassed because in one night, the news that he was back spread all over the

district. She even went shopping secretly, fearing that she would be caught.

“Go home!”

Being displeased, Albert pulled Aleena up.

“You’re leaving so soon? It’s such a big matter and you don’t even hold a wedding ceremony. Why

don’t you hold a banquet?”

“By the way, how is Jorge now? He has been out for so many years. Where does he work now?”

Aleena said in a bad mood, “What a busybody!”

The woman turned a deaf ear to her and giggled, “Hey, what are you angry about? Am I not allowed to

talk about it? So you know shame, right?”

Obviously, she was looking for trouble.

It was a common practice to keep up with the Joneses. Besides, in the Reston District, she was the

best at gossiping.

Aleena was so furious that she was gasping for breath and glared at the woman.

“What? Glare at me? Even if your eyeballs pop out, Jorge is still nothing!”

Aleena trembled with rage, and she turned to leave, intending to ignore this unreasonable woman.

“Hey, don’t go. When Roselyn divorces Jorge, I’ll introduce her to another good man…”

Seeing that Aleena was weak, the woman revealed a triumphant smile.

Rumble came from somewhere.

It turned out to be the sound of a dull and powerful engine. A red Porsche stopped in front of the

woman. The body of the car reflected the glaring light under the sun, dazzling her eyes.

She had just rubbed her eyes when she saw Jorge and Roselyn open the door and get out of the car.

She was confused.

“Mum, we are back.”

Roselyn called out upon seeing Aleena.

“Wow, it’s Roselyn. I thought my eyes were blurred!”

The woman sneered, “Where did you borrow the car? Return it quickly. You can’t afford it if you scrape

it.”

She knew Porsche. Among her relatives, one who got money from demolition bought a Porsche too.

With handling fee, it was worth more than a million!

Roselyn earned little money that she couldn’t afford it! Roselyn was frozen and did not know how to

respond.

“I gave the car to Roselyn,”

Jorge said indifferently.

The woman was dumbfounded and shocked on the spot.

Jorge bought it? Didn’t he just come back a few days ago? Rumors had it that he couldn’t even afford a

meal when he was out there.

“It was bought by Jorge. He felt that it was not safe for me to drive a new energy automobile to work.”

Looking at the woman, Roselyn said softly.

The woman was more perplexed. Jorge should buy such an expensive car for commuting! Wasn’t he a

lame duck even without a job? Where did he get so much money? “Well, what are you talking about

with Aleena?”

Jorge narrowed his eyes.

“No, nothing. I … I’m going back to cook.”

The neighbor, with an embarrassed look, turned around and left. The words she had said to Aleena

before seemed to be a joke.

Aleena widened her eyes, completely shocked. Albert opened and shut his mouth, unspeaking.

Shock, it was too shocking! They could never imagine that this Porsche, which was distinctive at first

glance, was bought by Jorge for Roselyn! “Is this car…”

Aleena hesitated, still somewhat unable to believe it.

Even Roselyn could not afford it. How could Jorge, who had just been discharged from the army, afford

it? “Where’s Aleena’s car?”

Albert frowned. That new energy vehicle was bought after they scrimped for half a year.

“The automobile store has a scrappage scheme to show gratitude to the regular clients.”

Jorge smiled and pretended nothing happened.

Roselyn glared at Jorge and thought, ‘This guy was brainless.

Did he become silly after serving in the army?’

Albert shook his head with a bitter smile. Aleena also frowned as a sign of not believing him.

If there was such an activity in the store, Porsche would be parked everywhere! “It was indeed bought

by Jorge!”

Roselyn took a deep breath and admitted it.

She had never lied since she was a child, and now that she told the truth, she immediately felt a sense

of satisfaction.

Aleena looked at Jorge suspiciously, her eyebrows still knitted.

After being a soldier for five years, perhaps … he indeed had that much demobilization payment?

“Forget it, it’s all about them. Don’t ask anymore!”

Albert waved his hand. If Jorge hadn’t driven this car here today, that woman would probably have

predisposed him to heart attacks.

Aleena wanted to say something more, but eventually shook her head and helped Albert back home.

“Mum didn’t say anything?”

Roselyn stared at Aleena’s back, surprised.

“It doesn’t matter. Let’s go back and eat. I’m hungry.”

Jorge touched his belly and smiled.

With his extraordinary eyesight, he could see the ridicule and disdain on the face of the neighbor far

away, so he drove the car over to save face for Aleena.

Neither his wife nor his mother-in-law could be bullied!

In the past five years, he had fought on the battlefield at home and abroad. He both once ate bugs to

appease his hunger in the uninhabited region and enjoyed an exorbitant bluefin tuna feast in the high-

class restaurant.

However, for so many years, he had never eaten a home-cooked meal. Aleena was good at cooking,

so the dishes were delectable, very much to his liking.

With an eating manner that was not elegant, Jorge devoured the food merrily.

Aleena put on a surprised face at the sight of this, her feelings complicated.
