Judy emerged from behind Steve, wearing revealing pajamas and embracing him.
Her eyes were closed, and she asked, "Steve, who is it?"
Steve smirked and was about to respond when a sound caught their attention.
A delivery box falled onto the ground. Louis stood there, his gaze fixed on Judy, unable to believe that this was his once-innocent girlfriend.
In his shock, he dropped the items he was holding.
Judy heard the noise and looked up, locking eyes with Louis.
Surprise flickered across her face for a moment, quickly replaced by contempt and indifference.
Louis was about to speak when Steve interjected, taunting him:
"What's the matter with you? Are you trembling in fear just by seeing me? You're nothing but a cowardly vermin, incapable of even the simplest tasks."
Steve expected to see Louis' angry and helpless expression. But to his surprise, Louis stared past him at the girl by his side and shouted angrily:
"Judy, what are you doing here with this bastard? You told me you were studying at the library. Why are you here?"
Louis' voice sounded filled with despair, but Judy clung tightly to Steve's arm and weakly said, "What are you talking about? I don't even know you! Steve, I'm so scared."
She buried her head in Steve's chest, and he held her, wearing a sinister smile as he looked at Louis, saying:
"Are you insane? She's my girlfriend, and we're intimate. What's the matter, man? Jealous that you can't have such a beautiful girlfriend?"
Louis couldn't believe what he was seeing. The girl he loved, who had always been pure and innocent, was pretending not to recognize him.
Rage surged within him.
Louis felt that there must be a threat or a misunderstanding. The innocent and pure Judy would never behave this way willingly!
With that thought, he looked at Judy and said, "Judy, if you're in trouble, just tell me. Don't follow Steve; he's a player! He doesn't love you; he only wants to take advantage of you!"
Steve heard this and sneered, looking at Judy as he asked, "Do you know this poor guy?"
Judy laughed mockingly and glanced at Louis before saying, "Since we're here, there's no need to hide anything. I love Steve; you're just a joke to me. Get lost; a poor loser like you doesn't deserve me!"
Louis widened his eyes in disbelief and tried to speak, but Judy continued with disdain:
"Haven't you realized the reality? You were too poor to buy me a gift, but Steve is different. He can give me everything. He gave me watches, necklaces... expensive things that someone as worthless as you could never afford! Do you really think I would love someone as poor as you?"
She caressed the necklace around her neck—a precious piece that almost stung Louis' eyes with its reflection.
At this moment, Steve understood what was happening.
Judy was Louis' girlfriend! He burst into laughter, hugging Judy's waist and mocking Louis:
"You're so poor you can't even keep your own girlfriend, hahaha! What a shame. Someone like you can only dream of having a girlfriend. You should stick to your broken-down bike and continue delivering packages for the rest of your life, ha ha ha..."
He kissed Judy on the cheek, his hand wandering down to fondle her breasts. With a smug expression, he lovingly said, "Judy, my darling, tell me what you want. I'll give you anything."
Judy's eyes sparkled upon hearing that, and she buried her head in Steve's chest, saying softly, "I wanted the Chanel bag last time..."
They kissed passionately, the sound echoing in the room.
Louis was consumed with anger, his eyes bloodshot, unable to think straight.
He pulled Steve away and threw a punch, but Steve easily dodged and retaliated.
Nevertheless, Louis didn't give up; his anger fueled his fight. The commotion attracted the attention of students in the dormitory who looked out and witnessed the intense brawl between Louis and Steve.
Steve, being a football player, had a well-toned physique.
In the end, Louis couldn't overpower him and was knocked to the ground.
Steve spat on the ground, wearing a scornful smile as he said, "You can't even keep your girlfriend, and yet you have the audacity to fight for mine?"
Judy joined them, and just when Louis expected her to help him up, she walked over to Steve. She touched his wound with feigned concern and said, "Steve honey, are you okay?"
Then she turned to Louis, who was struggling to sit up, and said, "Louis, I've told you before. I love Steve; you're nothing but a joke to me. Stop daydreaming. Here's your delivery money; take it and leave!"
Judy took the money out of her pocket and dropped it on Louis' head before walking away with Steve. Just as they were leaving, Steve turned around and cruelly said, "Dare to hit me, and I'll show you what real suffering is!"
As they departed, Louis remained seated on the ground, his gaze fixed on Judy and Steve's retreating figures.
His heart felt as though it were being torn apart by a wild animal.
How could this be? How could his once innocent and beautiful girlfriend turn out to be like this?
She had chosen money over him and went with the person he despised the most.
Perhaps she had spoken the truth—he was nothing but a joke to her. Louis thought about his humble background and felt a surge of hatred for his own life.
He had given his all, but received nothing in return. When would this cycle of misery end?
The surrounding students witnessed the scene but chose not to intervene or lend a hand to Louis. Instead, they laughed and gossiped about him.
"Can you believe it? The poorest guy in school actually thought he could have a beautiful girlfriend?"
"Yeah, he even dared to fight with Steve. It's so hilarious."
"People like them will always choose someone like Steve. No one wants to be with a poor person."
"Exactly! He should know his place. How could someone as poor as him pursue such a beautiful girl?"
......
Mockery and laughter filled Louis' ears.
He clenched the money Judy had thrown at him, digging his nails into his skin, but he felt no pain.
Anger and despair consumed his mind.
Gritting his teeth, he stood up, trying to ignore the sneers, and rode away on his bicycle.
The eyes following him felt like monsters, reminding him to face the harsh and gloomy reality...
In the messy motel room, Louis sat on the ground, his eyes hazy with drunkenness.Suddenly, he shouted and threw the empty bottle and cans aside to spare out his anger and depression.Then the next room came with a cursing sound, likely because of his scream and other noise, but Louis didn't care it anymore.Bottles and cans colliding, his room was now a mess like a slum, overflowing with beer bottles and dirty clothes.And what worse, he couldn't afford the rent then since he had run out of the money for......When he thought about the phone for Judy, sorrow and anger burst in his mind.However, tricked by a woman casually, he was really an idiot, too.He opened one bottle and then gulped it down, his eyes looking into the distance, the light in his eyes as vague as his future.Thinking of the afternoon taunts, he swore that as long as he was strong enough, he would make Steve and Judy regret it for the rest of their lives!Louis laughed at his thoughts for a bit, then continued to
Louis still couldn't believe it. He switched on the banking app and checked, and when he saw the balance of 1 billion dollars, he felt like he was dreaming.He pinched himself, throbbing. This was not a dream, but honestly, he had 1 billion dollars in his account. Oh my gosh, what's going on?!Louis was both happy and scared and vaguely remembered someone calling him yesterday. But he was too sleepy to notice and thought it was just his dream.He unlocked his phone and, of course, saw the missed call. But he couldn’t recognize the number that who had called him last night.Louis frowned in suspicion but eventually gave a call back. And then it was connected.Louis immediately said, "Hello, this is Louis Adonis, who’s that calling me yesterday?"A severe voice came from the other side:"Little Loui, now that you call me, you must have already received the billion dollars. Now I will tell you everything. I am Titus Adonis, my dear son, I’ve come back! Listen! You are the heir to the Ado
Susan Adel and Louis Adonis were seated on the chairs oppositely. Both of them had lots of things to talk to the other one.They kept silent for a little while and Louis broke the silence then:" Susan, you told me that you are my mother's little sister. But I've never seen you before."Susan felt surprised that her nephew didn't ask her about the wealth firstly, but soon she came the question:"During the training period of every Adonis, we are not allowed to see you even though you are my nephew, son of my dear sister." Her low voice seemed depressed.Louis continued:"Could you please tell me more about the Adonis and your family?" He was curious about it.“Both the Adonis and the Adel are rich, but the Adonis is the most wealthy family in the world while the Adels are attached to the Adonis Family.” "So where is my father since he wasn't dead or missed in the sail? And how's my mum, she didn't pass away, right?" He wanted to know the truth.Seeing his eager eyes, Susan told him tha
Louis frowned, the one who came was none other than Steve. Next to him was Judy. She took Steve's arm and looked at Louis disdainfully. They had just completed their affairs here. Louis frowned; the people around heard the staff's words, and Steve also silently laughed and talked about him. Louis seriously said: "If you do not recognize this bank, it shows that your capacity is not enough. I want to meet your manager." Elly lowered her head and was about to respond when suddenly, a female secretary appeared. She came to receive Steve. When she saw everyone gathered to talk, she frowned and said, "What happened?!" Elly looked at the female secretary, but she was slower than Steve. He quickly said, "Oh, there you are. Your bank has a card-stealing customer. You should arrest him and hand him over to the police as quickly as possible." The female secretary knows that Steve is rich; she usually has to flatter Steve. She looked at Louis, saw him dressed in poverty, and immediately said
The caller was Scarlet; she was almost the only person who was nice to him in school. At least she doesn't distance herself from or despise him because of Steve.She's a nice girl, not a fake like Judy. Louis didn't know why before they found Judy innocent and pure. He is so stupid.Louis answered the phone; Scarlet's gentle voice sounded: "Louis, it's my birthday tonight. Can you come and attend?"Is she inviting him to her birthday party? Louis didn't expect Scarlet to ask a poor guy like him; she didn't know he was so rich now. Isn't she afraid of losing face?Louis was surprised at the same time, feeling the pressure; it seemed that Scarlet considered him a friend. Louis smiled and said, "Okay, I will come."Scarlet: "You said it; you must come. If you don't come, I'll be angry."Louis laughed; the two talked for a while, then hung up.Thinking about going to Scarlet's birthday party tonight, Louis changed his mind about going home. He thought he was going to the mall to buy her a
When Steve heard Louis say that, his throat choked, and he couldn't say anything more. Louis was not caught proving that the card belonged to Louis.But even if he knows that, so what? He still wants to smear Louis. As long as Louis is upset, it's okay.The clerk on the side heard Steve say that and frowned.She was enthusiastic about Louis because she saw the sales personally bowing to Louis at the menswear store. Indeed, Louis is more straightforward and poor than in the words of the other guest.She would not interfere in the client's business even though she thought she didn't say anything. As a salesperson, she didn't need to offend any customers. She needs to do her job well.Judy on the side also laughed and said, "He probably doesn't know how expensive the items here are."When Steve heard that, he burst out laughing. At this moment, Louis' voice came: "I want the most expensive and most beautiful dress on display in the shop."When the salesman heard that, her eyes widened. T
She only had one class in the afternoon today, so she returned a little early. She thought she would eat something and get ready for her best friend's birthday party.She is curious to know if her roommate has woken up yet. When she woke up in the morning, he was still sleeping. Elena thought so.But when she entered the house, she couldn't help but be surprised, because there was a stranger in the house!Tall and handsome man. His clothes are also very nice. A luxurious suit hugged his body. The expensive pants made his legs look longer. His beautiful face also looked familiar, but Elena didn't think so much.She only feels uncomfortable when a stranger enters her house.This must be a rich man. But why is he here?What is this poor inn of hers worth?Elena was perplexed, but she still tried to stay calm. She frowned and said, "Who are you? Why show up at my house?"When Louis hears Elena say that, he can't help but be surprised. Last night this girl even allowed him to bed. Why didn
The speaker was Steve; although they didn't attend the same school, Steve's family did business with Bella's family, so they know each other. Louis hearing Steve's voice didn't show any displeasure. It seemed to him that their words were like the humming sound of tiny mosquitoes. Steve was infuriated by his attitude toward Louis. He still doesn't believe Louis is a rich man. Yesterday, Louis must have just gone shopping for some rich man. Otherwise, how could a poor guy like Louis have such much money? Bella didn't even trust Steve's words, but Judy, besides Steve, also sarcastically said: "Yes, he couldn't even buy me a present when we were in love. That suit of his was probably rented. Looking at such expensive clothes, it must have cost you a month's overtime, right?" Immediately next to him came the sound of chattering. They were all from the school and knew about Louis' past stories. They laughed at him. Louis didn't answer but just looked at Bella. Bella trusted the words
