72Charles walked quickly to Hellen and looked deeply at her. “hellen, it’s been a long time. I didn’t expect you to remember me”. She was a little embarrassed by his stare. Her face reddened slightly. She dodged Charles’s gaze and nodded with a smile. Richard noticed Hellen’s strange behavior and his thoughts fluctuated. Did Hellen and this man named Charles have an unknown past? To be honest, Richard was a little uncomfortable. No man wanted his wife to have anything to do with other men.However, he did not immediately stand up to be jealous and fight for Hellen’s favor. Tonight was Hellen’s classmates’ reunion, so he still had to respect her. He observed Charles secretly and was sure that Charles was a successful man with a bit of wealth. This could be seen from the confidence Charles showed and the awe others had for Charles when he was surrounded by so many people. Quentin said, “Charles, you’re just in time. You’re our class monitor. You can judge the right from wrong. Hel
73 “I told you not to talk nonsense. You ignored my words again, didn’t you?” When they went into the hotel together, Hellen pinched Richard hard and said angrily, “You made me feel embarrassed again. If I had known, I shouldn’t have called you over!” Richard bared his teeth in pain and gasped. “Hiss… Be gentle! I’m just trying to play along with you, my monitor. I’m helping you do what you want. How can I make you feel embarrassed?” She let go of Richard. Of course, she could see that Charles’s behavior just now was just to show off. This behavior also disappointed her. She didn’t expect that many years later, the young man who used to be pure and sunny had also become so secular. “It’s his own business and he can do whatever he wants. Just behave yourself!” she glared at Richard fiercely and said in an commanding tone, “When the class reunion starts, you are not allowed to talk nonsense, and you are not allowed to embarrass me anymore, okay? Otherwise…” Seeing that she hadn’t
74She was shocked, and her face was turning pale. She also appeared very embarrassed. Richard frowned. He looked at the source of the voice. It was a lewd-looking man who walked over with a wicked smile, winking at Charles fawningly. Charles didn’t come into the hotel immediately just now because he called to learn about Richard. His inquiry did not disappoint him, but brought him a big surprise! It turned out that Hellen had not married off, but had found a matrilocal husband who joined the Travison Family. Moreover, this guy was a waste. He had a terrible reputation in Harous City, which many people knew. Charles also found out that Hellen didn’t get along well with this guy, because he had done a lot of things to embarrass her over the years! In fact, Charles was overjoyed when he heard the news. That was really a chance given to him by god. This meant that there was a great possibility to win her. After all, a beautiful woman like her was rarely seen anywhere. Even if she wa
75Richard said this to Hellen, but another person next to him heard his words and stared at him with wide eyes. “What? You don’t even know Forrest?” “Ridiculous! You don’t even know Forrest? Hellen, is your husband a martian?” “Wait, what did he just say? Forrest is an unknown star? That’s hilarious! Richard is incompetent but arrogant.” The people around them began to laugh at Richard, as if they were looking at a retarded person. Some of Forrest’s female fans, in particular, did not like Richard at all. They felt that he was foolish and arrogant, and they could not believe he dared to regard Forrest as an unknown star. Even if there was a scandal about him six months ago and he had been keeping a low profile recently, he was still a superstar. Moreover, it was hard for ordinary people to see him. Hellen was so angry with Richard that she pinched him. “I beg you, can you keep quiet? You do embarrass me.” Richard said innocently, “I’m just asking something about Forrest who p
76After Charles finished speaking, he couldn’t help but start laughing. The others echoed, and for a moment the hotel was filled with laughter and joy. Forrest was stunned. He didn’t smile and suddenly had a strange feeling. “Charles, where is this person you’re talking about?” Charles pointed at a man, “That’s the guy.” Forrest looked in the direction and suddenly saw a man dressed in ordinary clothes. He crossed his legs and sat on a chair eating melon seeds. There was no one around him. He was isolated and looked lonely. However, he did not seem to be embarrassed because of it. Instead, he had a casual smile on his face, looked relaxed. When he saw the man clearly, Forrest was shocked and his eyes widened, and an incredible look appeared on his face. Wasn’t this the chairman of Elliott Enterprise who he had just met two days ago? Why was he here? Forrest couldn’t believe it. His first reaction was that he mistook it. How could such a powerful person mingle with these ordinary
77“Hellen, you’re so discreet! You have never told us that your husband is so powerful.” “That’s right. You married such a rich man and said that he was of a humble origin. Are you afraid that we’ll steal your husband away?” “I told you. Hellen is the most beautiful girl in our class. How can she marry an ordinary person?” “That’s right…” As soon as Hellen came over, she was surrounded by a group of female classmates. They kept flattering her, which made her very confused. She didn’t know what happened, “What are you all talking about? Why can’t I understand?” “You’re still pretending. Are you afraid that we’ll steal your husband away?” “Yeah. Just now, your husband was so imposing that even Forrest had to respectfully call him Mr. Johnson. That was awesome! Hellen, what does your husband do? Why didn’t you talk about him before?” They all began to inquire about Richard’s background. Hellen frowned. She was totally puzzled. Soon, as all these female classmates explained to h
Richard reacted quickly and braked immediately .The harsh song of tires rubbing against the ground immediately sounded in the air with a faint smell of burning.But even so , Richard couldn't stop the car, he hit the car in front of them andmade a hole in that car.The inertia made Hellen lean forwarduncontrollably, and the seat belt tied her .Soon, the two cars behind surroundedRichard's Volkswagen from left to right. At the same time, some big men got out of the three cars at the same time andsurrounded Hellen and Richard."How on earth did you drive? Don't youhave eyes? You've crashed my car. Getout of the car!"A tall and strong man slammed the lid of Richard's car hard, making loud sounds. He was fierce that they could tell at a glance that he was strong.Hellen's face immediateiy turned pale and she began to fear.Richard patted her hand and said gently to her, "Don't be afraid. I'm here."Hellen looked at him and saidresentfully, "I told you not to drive sofast. Now
79Hellen said this with more disappointment than surprise. She had always had a good impression of Charles for he was a good student with good character and learning back then. After graduation, he should at least be a decent man. But what Charles did tonight had really disappointed her . Not only was he pompous and ostentatious at the class reunion, but also he sent some gang members after them for retaliation. Charles was a twisted man now. After hearing Hellen’s question, he showed a ferocious expression. “Why should I do this? How do you still have the nerve to ask me why?!” “You knew that I had planed and put a lot of effort into the class reunion tonight. Do you know how much I spent? Over a million! A whole million! Just so I could prove myself in front of my classmates and teachers, so I could get your attention! But what about you? You had ruined everything for me!”“You must feel so good about what you had done at the reunion party. Even Quan Xi was like a good pappy in
