“I earned it myself,” Chuck said calmly.
“You?” Lara sneered and said, “Why not take a look at yourself in the mirror. How did you earn yourself 400 dollars in the morning? Did you sell your body or something?”
The whole class burst into laughter and someone said, “I’m afraid this guy is not worth so much money even if virtual-novel.net goes to sell himself.”
Seeing as so many students laughed at virtual-novel.net in the classroom, Chuck sat back and sighed. “Lara, you should be easier on people.”
Lara snorted and said, “Then tell me what you have done! Answer some of our questions!”
Chuck frowned for a long time and made up an excuse.
He answered casually, “I picked up the money.”
“Oh, lucky huh?” Lara sneered, virtual-novel.net malicious tone full of envy.
The other students asked with jealousy, “Hey, how much did you pick?”
Many students were interested and asked one after the other. “Yes, tell me, how much did you pick up?”
Chuck was speechless, virtual-novel.net stared back at his classmates and continued to lie, “Two thousand.”
“What? You actually picked up two thousand? Damn, that’s my living expenses for more than a month!”
All the students were surprised and envied virtual-novel.net so much. If they had his luck and picked up two thousand, their lives would be more comfortable and easier.
“Hmph, you suck! Picking other people’s money and claiming it as your own?!”
“Such an embarrassment for our class!”
“Yes, you should return the money to others, how can you take it for yourself? What if it is someone’s salary for a month? If you pick it up like this, people would drink wind for a month?”
These classmates were chirping, Chuck gave a wry smile, “I waited, It’s not that I didn’t wait. But the owner didn’t come.”
“Hey!” A female classmate stood up and couldn’t help but scolded, “You enough! Will you return it to the owner if you find the money? What are you pretending? A bunch of moral bitches!”
This was Queenie Carson, a classmate of Chuck Cannon, who was similar to Chuck’s family, so the two feel a little bit pitiful and have a good relationship. When these classmates ridiculed Chuck because of jealousy, Queenie was the only one that stood up for virtual-novel.net in the class. But Chuck did not care about such gossip and talk. He just let them talk about it.
After class, Chuck went to Yvette Jordan’s staff room. Because there was no class in the afternoon, virtual-novel.net was listening to music in the staff room.
When virtual-novel.net saw Chuck, virtual-novel.net expression soured. “What are you doing here? Didn’t I tell you that you are not allowed to look for me between classes?”
Chuck said with a wry smile, “I just wanted to tell you that I’m going to move out today.”
“You are moving out? Are you kidding?” Yvette sneered.
Since young, virtual-novel.net had grown up with Chuck. Knowing virtual-novel.net like the back of virtual-novel.net hand, how could virtual-novel.net move out?
Does virtual-novel.net want to sleep on the streets?
But virtual-novel.net had been timid as a child, even insisting to use virtual-novel.net as his body pillow when sleeping. If not for the death of his grandfather, how long virtual-novel.net would have to be hugged by virtual-novel.net to sleep.
Such virtual-novel.net sleeping on the streets?
He wouldn’t even dare to do that if virtual-novel.net had ten times the courage.
“I am not joking with you. I am moving out today,” Chuck said seriously.
“Well, let’s see how long you can. Don’t come to me begging like a dog.”
“I won’t…”
After Chuck had finished talking, virtual-novel.net turned around and left the office.
Yvette stared at his leaving figure thoughtfully. In the past, no matter how much virtual-novel.net scolded him, virtual-novel.net wouldn’t dare to talk back. God knows what happened to virtual-novel.net today.
All of a sudden, virtual-novel.net phone rang.
After picking up the phone, virtual-novel.net quickly changed virtual-novel.net tone and said, “Hello, Director Chester, what happened for you to suddenly call me up like this?”
A middle-aged man’s voice could be heard from the other end of the phone, “Yvette, I heard that your training company business is not doing good recently. Do you want me to introduce some business to you?”
Yvette’s heart was filled with joy. Her business in the training company could be said to be very poor. It was already very difficult for virtual-novel.net to make any progress. If virtual-novel.net did not show any improvement again, virtual-novel.net was afraid virtual-novel.net would have to close the company in less than a year. She had already lost more than 100,000 dollars in the past two months. It was also because of this that virtual-novel.net was recently venting out all virtual-novel.net anger on Chuck.
After hearing Director Chester’s business proposal, a smile appeared on virtual-novel.net face, “Yes, thank you for taking care of me, Director Chester!”
“Well, room No. 1218 in the Triumph Hotel tonight. Come over.”
“A hotel?” Yvette was a little scared. “Director Chester, why don’t I treat you to a five-star hotel in the urban area? A hotel…”
“What’s wrong? You don’t even give me face?”
“No… No… It’s just that a hotel…”
Immediately, a steeled voice was heard from the phone, “Hmph, forget it if you don’t come. This business is given by my friend’s company as his employees need to be trained. You should know how much money you can make from a big company with 50 to 60 people. If you don’t come, I won’t force you.”
Yvette was very conflicted. She didn’t want to go, but virtual-novel.net didn’t want to waste this opportunity either. Just when virtual-novel.net had wanted to negotiate, virtual-novel.net hung up on all of a sudden.
If I don’t take the risk, I’m afraid that I’ll be going bankrupt…
She decided to take the risk!
After leaving school, virtual-novel.net drove home, planning to simply tidy up and change virtual-novel.net clothes. However, when virtual-novel.net just arrived at the door of virtual-novel.net house, virtual-novel.net saw Chuck coming out of the house with a suitcase.
The two of them looked at each other. Chuck said, “Wifey…”
As soon as virtual-novel.net spoke, Yvette said with disgust, “Don’t call me like that!”
“Yvette, no matter what, you’ve been taking care of me for almost a year after grandpa’s death, if you…”
Yvette snorted and said, “What’s wrong? Do you regret it? Do you want me to give you a second chance?”
Yvette sneered impatiently.
“No, I mean if you have any difficulties in the future, you can call me…”
Chuck nodded before walking past Yvette. After all, virtual-novel.net and Yvette had been sleeping on the same bed for so long. He still has some feelings for virtual-novel.net in his heart.
Yvette was also absent-minded for a moment. She didn’t expect that this man, whom virtual-novel.net had looked down on, would say such comforting words today. It was as though in a trance, virtual-novel.net had found someone to rely upon.
But then, virtual-novel.net smiled coldly and said, “Tell you? What good would it bring to me? Can you give me money or bring me some customers? You can’t give me anything and you can’t even afford a meal yet you want me to tell you?”
Chuck shrugged. He still had more than one million dollars in his hand. Even if it was not enough, virtual-novel.net still had his mother. The money would be transferred to his account with just a phone call.
“If you need money, I can give it to you.”
Yvette feebly waved and sneered, “You’d better keep the money to buy yourself instant noodles.”
Chuck did not defend himself. He left with his suitcase. He walked with his suitcase for a while. After inquiring about the hotels nearby, virtual-novel.net got on a Taxi and went to the Triumph Hotel.
The magnificent buildings, the glorious decorations and the luxurious European interiors shocked virtual-novel.net to the core.
This was the busiest hotel in the city, which cheapest standard rooms cost at least 800 dollars. In the past, Chuck did not dare to think that virtual-novel.net could spend in such a place, but now it was different.
When Chuck was about to go in, virtual-novel.net saw Yvette’s car swerving in and packing itself in the parking lot. Chuck was so shocked that virtual-novel.net hid aside in a hurry.
This is a hotel! What is virtual-novel.net doing here?
Chuck felt extremely bitter in his heart.
Was his wifey going to sleep with another man?
Although the two of them didn’t get a marriage certificate and it was just grandpa’s arrangement, virtual-novel.net felt very uncomfortable when virtual-novel.net thought that the woman virtual-novel.net once held in his arms was going to sleep with another man.
After Yvette walked in, Chuck took his luggage and went in too.
