Chapter 242
“Miss, I heard that there is a cafe in Savrow Film Academy that makes really good coffee. Let me buy you and Ms. Amelia a cup of coffee.” Steven suggested with a smile. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Okay, you can go and pick Amelia up on the way.”
Bella kept her eyes on the proposal in her hand. “I called her just now, but she didn’t answer. Why don’t you go in and call her again later? She doesn’t know that we are waiting for her at the back door.”
“Okay.”
Steven got out of the car and walked into the school gate.
As soon as his tall and handsome figure in a neat suit appeared on the school campus, he attracted the excited and eager eyes of many students around him.
Steven walked into the cafe and ordered two cups of coffee. The waitress was focused on him the whole time..
At this moment, two female students who were fashionably dressed and wearing big brands walked in.
“Hey, have you heard that Amelia Thompson is the female lead for the acting department’s graduation stage play?”
Hearing Amelia’s name, Steven narrowed his
Steven narrowed his eyes and listened attentively.
“Hmph! It’s her again? Amelia must have gotten the role by going through the back door and doing something disgraceful with the professor.”
“Yeah, I think so too. I just saw her in the garden chatting with one of the popular boys in school. Tsk tsk! She’s such a slut!”
Suddenly, the two gossiping women screamed like chickens, scaring the waitress so much that the color drained from her face.
Without saying a word, Steven splashed the coffee he was holding at them.
“Are you crazy?! Why did you splash us?!” The girls’ makeup was smeared, and half of their false eyelashes fell off.
“According to Article 246 of the Criminal Law, the intentional fabrication and dissemination of fictitious facts that are enough to demean the character and damage the reputation of others is punishable by law with imprisonment of not more than three years.
Steven’s eyes were gloomy as he said in a low voice, “You should be glad that I don’t hit women. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to walk out of here in one piece.”
One of the girls was trembling with fear, but the other girl argued angrily. “Are you Amelia’s boyfriend? Hmph! Instead of venting your anger on us, why don’t you go and see the situation yourself?! We only said that because we saw what happened!”
The garden was at the back of the teaching building.
Amelia was stopped by one of the popular boys in school, Ethan Zaffino.
“Ethan, I have told you many times that I don’t like you, so I won’t accept your pursuit.”
Amelia looked at the man in front of her coldly and said, “I have an appointment with someone, so I need to get going.”
“Amelia, do you think I’m not serious about pursuing you?”
Ethan raised his eyebrows. Regardless of Amelia’s rejection, Ethan took out a red box from his bag and opened it in front of her.
Inside was a diamond-encrusted Cartier women’s watch.
“This is a gift I specially picked for you. Keep it. As long as you are my girlfriend, I can satisfy you with sports cars, Hermès bags, or villas…”
As he spoke, he smiled devilishly and licked his lips. “I can satisfy your material needs as well as some other needs that you may have.”
Although Amelia was innocent, she heard the double entendre. Her whole body shook with anger. Then she raised her hand and knocked over the box.
Amelia did not even take a look at that expensive watch before it dropped into the mud.
Ethan was a pampered child who had never been rejected before. Thus, he had never been humiliated like that.
The veins in his neck bulged as he grabbed her wrist. “Amelia! How dare you ruin the things I gave you? Do you think you’re so noble? Why are you playing hard to get with me?”
“Let go of me, Ethan!” Amelia was flustered as she tried to struggle free.
“Haha… I know you’re playing hard-to-get, right? I’ve seen too many women like you who are from poor families wanting to move up the social ladder by using their good looks.”
Ethan’s other hand was already restlessly touching her waist as he smiled greedily. “You don’t want to have a bleak future before graduation, right? As long as you are my girlfriend, you will get to pick and
choose any resources you want when you enter the entertainment industry.”
