Chapter 13Miles breathed out in relief once he stepped out of the class. The lecture was finally over, and he could finally go back home since he had been looking forward to the time the class would be over.He walked briskly down the walkway and made his way straight to the parking lot, and when he arrived there, he hopped inside his car and the ride back home began.As Miles rode through the dark yet busy road, his new phone beeped and a text from Ashley popped on the screen. 'Why are you taking so long, Miles?' He read through the text after he pulled over at the side of the road. He replied to her and told her he was on his way back to the dormitory. After he dropped his phone on the seat beside him, he started the car and drove off.The ride back to the dorm took less than ten minutes, and when he arrived, he pulled over neatly at the spot where he usually parked his car. Furthermore, he proceeded toward the building.Miles arrived at the front of their apartment and pushed the
Chapter 14'Why don't you be a man and stop this while I'm being nice, huh?' Miles dropped another comment. He couldn't just fold his arms and watch someone bash his friend like that, right?'Or else? What are you going to do? Are you going to beat me up?''I see you are a new user. I guess you are just using this for the first time' Came another couple of comments from the same person, and Miles huffed.'This is crazy and immature. You can't just come into someone's live and bash her like that''This man must be an asshole. Why would he talk to a woman like that? I guess he was not brought up well by his Mom. If not, he wouldn't talk to a woman like that''All these social media influencers are worse than Jezebels. Who knows, maybe she really slept with many men to keep her career going. People and doing things desperately just to get what they want''That's not fair to say to your fellow woman. It's her life, and besides, everyone is doing what they can to survive. If she is really
Chapter 15"Why is he not dropping a comment again?" Miles mumbled as he scrolled through his phone. Although comments from many users were still coming in, commending him for a job well done, but he was concerned about the man's comment and wanted to see it."Maybe he gave up," He concluded, and just when he was about to drop his phone, a comment from the man finally dropped.'You think I'm going to give up just like that? Never!' Came his comment.'Did our puppy go to borrow money to buy more gifts? I hope he doesn't end up in the police station after taking a loan''You should give up already. You can't afford anything again. It's obvious you are already broke''The next time you want to bash someone, be sure to be prepared financially so as if the same occurrence comes up again in the future' Many users bashed him.The man bought the fourth most expensive gift and sent it to Ashley.'I challenge you to beat me if you can' He dropped a follow-up comment with a few emojis smirking a
Chapter 16Miles's jaw dropped when he pulled the door open and saw Ashley standing with two bottles of wine in her hands and a smile plastered on her face."Ashley?" He called surprisingly and scanned her with his eyes briefly before he looked at her face."What are you doing here? It's late," Miles uttered after he glanced at the wall clock, but Ashley just shrugged and rolled her eyes."Can't I come to your room, hmm?" She scoffed and rolled her eyes again.Many thoughts ran through Miles's mind as he stared at her. Did she find out that the person was him? Was she there to question him about his wealth again? He asked himself curiously, but his thoughts were disrupted by Ashley's voice."Of course, you can... Do you want to come inside?" He asked even though he didn't want her to go inside his room."I'm excited," A smile laced up her lips as she leaned against the door, and he raised his eyebrows."Why? Did you win a lottery?" Miles asked even though he knew why she was excited.
Chapter 17Miles felt his throat dry all of a sudden, his heart thumped heavily against his chest as he stared into her eyes. Slowly, his eyes diverted to her sexy lips which were pouted sexily, and for a moment, he was tempted to have a taste of them. He swallowed the lump that formed in his throat and bit his bottom lip, trying everything to resist this crazy urge in him. She was sexy, and he couldn't deny that he was moved by her body, he couldn't deny the crazy thoughts that crossed his mind."You have a fiancee already, Miles," He reminded himself, and quickly turned his face away. His body trembled as he quickly reached for the glass he had dropped on the center table. He poured some wine into it and drank everything in one shot. He put back the cup on the center table."Why are you not saying anything? I've been turned down by many guys in the past saying I was not their type of woman. Are you going to turn me down too?" Pain was written all over Ashley's face as she stared at
Chapter 18Miles fell silent, not knowing what to say. For the next few seconds, he just held the phone to his ear unbelievably. This was the last thing he had expected from Jess. At least not after barely three days that they broke up."Miles, please help me. They are going to hurt me if I don't pay this money. You are the only one I can run to now," Jess's teary voice sounded from the other end, and he briefly sighed. "Are you still there since yesterday?" He had to ask her, a bit confused. Even though the wine Leo manipulated for him was expensive, he had thought that maybe they'd found their way out of it."I know we were wrong. We shouldn't have done that to you... Please don't punish me this way. Help me out," She cried out, her voice sounding frightened."Leo... He left me here. He said he was going to the restroom but left me here to sort things out, and they are not letting me go. I'm trying to reach him but it's not going through. Please help me, just this once," Once again
Chapter 19"Did you forget something, Sir?" Mr. Collins quickly stood up to his feet and asked Miles respectfully."No, I didn't. I will settle her bill," Miles replied to Collins as he took out his new phone."Your account details," Miles asked Mr. Collins, and Jess rolled her eyes. Even in this situation, she couldn't help but look down on Miles. Was he trying to brag about money now? Jess scoffed silently, looking forward to getting the hell out of this place.After Miles settled everything, he turned to Collins and asked, "Can I take her away now?""Sure, Sir. You can," Mr. Collins replied to him politely, so he turned to Jess and signaled her to stand up.Jess stood up from the floor and dusted specks of dust on her body, arranged her hair, and rolled her eyes at Mr. Collins."Can I have my phone now?" She demanded rudely, and Mr. Collins handed her the phone.She hissed loudly and sauntered out of the restaurant without even waiting for Miles."Thank you, sir," Mr. Collins said
Chapter 20Jess glanced at Miles for the fifth time on their way and rolled her eyes. Why was he so persistent to sleep with her? Was he still in love with her? She asked herself a series of questions, and after a thorough thought, she couldn't help but conclude that Miles must still have feelings for her. That could be the only reason he was being like this.Seeing the smirk on Miles's face, Jess thought to herself that maybe he was thinking of what they were going to do and probably excited that he was finally going to have sex with her. Besides, they had been together for two good years and he'd never seen her nakedness, not even for once.Meanwhile, Miles couldn't help himself but smirk as the thought of what he would do to her later kept playing in his head. He had big plans for her. A bit plan that'd leave her hating herself for the rest of her life. A big plan that'd left her wishing they never crossed paths all her life."We are here," The cab man announced as he pulled over i
