Lucas let out a long breath. He had expected this to happen. He stared at the two cars with cold eyes. Four young men got out of the vehicle. One of them was Mike. "What do you want?" asked Lucas, his eyes glancing at each young man approaching him. "Scum!" screamed Mike. He walked up to Lucas, his steps looking haughty. "Finally we meet again." "You know, we've been waiting for you for so long!" Jacob, Mike's friend, said. He looked at Lucas with a disgusted look, like he was looking at dog poop. "You're like a cat meeting a dog, always dodging." Dion stood next to Mike, crossing his arms in front of his chest. "Compared to Mike, you're not even better than a pile of trash." "Did you hear that?" A sarcastic smile broke out on Mike's face, especially when he saw the disgust on Lucas's face. "You're just trash! Disgusting trash! Shrew, parasite!" Roy was no less annoying. "You're not even worth more than the dust on Mike's shoes."Dion approached Lucas, the distance between them
Amidst the mounting tension, their steps came to an abrupt halt. A mysterious figure dressed all in black appeared before them, blocking access to the distressed Lucas. His unexpected presence took them entirely by surprise. "Damn it!" shouted Mike. Her body trembling with anger, she felt irritated when a stranger touched her. "How dare you!" "Get out of the way!" Roy growled. His breathing was ragged, his face flushed, the veins in his neck tightened. His punch, which he was sure would hit Lucas, was parried and bounced away. "We have no business with you, get lost!" Jacob snapped. His voice trembled with anger, his tone threatening. Chris snorted, his gaze cold, his lips curled into a mocking grin. He stepped forward, ignoring the threats of Mike and the others. His every step was filled with confidence. "Master Lucas, are you alright?" Chris stopped before Lucas, his gaze fixed on the young man intently. Lucas nodded, the corners of his lips lifting slightly to form a faint
I don't know how long Mike had been unconscious, but at that moment, he heard voices surrounding him. His consciousness slowly returned. Mike blinked his eyes slowly, surprised to see many students watching him. Mike gasped. He immediately got up, but his waist was so sore that he grimaced in pain. "Why is he sleeping on the sidewalk?" One of the girls asked her friend. His friend shook his head, "they seem to have fainted, not slept." "Passed out? Did they fight?" the girl asked again curiously. Her friend shrugged. "I don't know, it's pretty quiet here," she said. "There aren't many people passing by." Someone suddenly cut through the crowd, "what's going on?" asked the figure, who turned out to be Elena. "Look, Mike looks like a beggar." Elena immediately turned her attention and looked at Mike. She immediately covered her mouth with her hand. Shock filled her heart as she saw a disheveled-looking Mike. "Mike, what's wrong with you?" asked Elena. "Why are you sitting ther
Lucas cleaned up and came out of the room to have dinner with the family. He sat down at one of the tables and was warmly welcomed by the waiters, who served him well.One servant even put a napkin around his neck so as not to soil the clothes he was wearing, and then another servant poured water into a glass and handed Lucas cutlery and food. The man was really treated very well.Lucas began to eat his meal quietly, facing Louis, his twin brother. He was distracted by Chris's arrival."Excuse me, sir." Chris bowed politely before Lucas. He lifted his face slightly to look at his master. "I'd like to report that Mike and his three friends have been punished. They have all been expelled from the college, and the business their family had with one of the Carter family's companies has been terminated."Hearing that was enough to make Lucas a little surprised that Mike and his friends had gotten their comeuppance so quickly. Suddenly, it made Lucas's face look a little stunned."Ah, how c
The campus was quiet as the students were in their respective classes following lessons. Lucas, meanwhile, was silent, focused on reading a thick book in the campus library along with Adam and Ryan."Hey, I don't think Mike can show his face on campus anymore." Adam raised one hand to the corner of his lips, whispering to Lucas and Ryan.Ryan nodded his head. "Yes, of course, now that she's bankrupt, she must be very embarrassed about it." He covered his mouth to stifle a small laugh that was about to escape."Hey, what do you think?" Adam idly nudged Lucas. He was still curious about the response his friend would give. "You don't want to comment on it? You should at least be as happy as we are that he got what he deserved."Lucas only responded by clearing his throat, showing his diligent side. Of course, it made Adam and Ryan immediately look at each other because they knew that if Lucas was in serious mode, the man didn't want to be disturbed and wanted to focus on his book."Yes,
"You'll come there, right?" Adam and Ryan looked at Lucas. Adam nudged his friend's arm. "Come on, just take your time."Ryan raised his eyebrows as he put an arm around Lucas' shoulders. "I think we should come to the festival together since we've never been before."The annual festival on campus was always held near the end of each semester to create good memories of college. Every year would be different from the previous year, and it was undoubtedly something that students looked forward to after a long day of studying."Yeah, Lucas." Adam nodded in agreement with Ryan's words. "Even though this is also our last year on this campus. So shouldn't we come for once instead of regretting that we never had fun together?""That's right." Ryan snapped his fingers. "The last year of college is the best. We can't miss this precious moment that will never be repeated, right?"Ryan and Adam raised their eyebrows in unison, trying to persuade Lucas to attend the annual college festival with t
The three of them had entered the festival. Everyone seemed to be amazed by the beauty of the festival, which was decorated marvelously. Ryan and Adam looked around with sparkling eyes.Many food tents were lined up around them, with many impressive rides. Not far from them was a large stage that was beautifully decorated."Wow, this is amazing." Adam and Ryan were amazed. "How can we miss such an amazing festival every year?"Adam nodded in agreement. "If I had known it was so awesome like this, I probably would have continued to attend." Amazingly, He stroked his chin as he looked more deeply into the festivities. "Well, it's a good thing we came. Otherwise, we'll have a lifetime of regret for missing the end of our youthful years at university."The two of them noisily continued to chuckle. Their steps stopped at a large circle full of water that was a colorful fountain that could rotate. Of course, it made Adam and Ryan even more amazed."Wow, there's a rotating fountain." Ryan to
The men and Lucas's two friends looked at him with cold stares. Meanwhile, Lucas, who was holding the flower, didn't know anything about it because he had no intention of joining such an event, and he was already at the back of the line of men who wanted to fight over the flower. But somehow, he was the one who got the flower.The once lively atmosphere instantly turned quiet as the flower-catching participants fell silent and watched Lucas."Yes, the flower has been captured by a handsome man." Until the host's voice came back to break the ice. "Alright, please pick up the woman who will be your date, my friend.""Ah, you managed to get a day date with the prima donna of our university, Lucas." Ryan patted Lucas on the back proudly while also feeling a little disappointed because he had hoped to date Lora.Adam also smiled and congratulated Lucas by grabbing his hand. "Come on, hurry over there and pick up your date." He moved his chin about the stage.Lucas was still confused becaus
