“The next time you touch my sister, I won’t let you go easily. Is that taken!?” Nolan yelled at Janet, his voice shaking with anger.Janet just laughed. “What position are you in to tell me that? For someone in serious trouble, I can’t believe you still have the audacity to tell me I’ll be in trouble because I’m giving a thief and trash a taste of her own medicine. I should be the one telling you that I won’t take it easy with you, okay? So just keep your damn mouth shut and wait for me to call the police. I’ll make sure you get embarrassed and never think of doing this shitty kind of thing again.” She spat out.The other sales reps sneered and whispered to themselves, shaking their heads. “I can’t believe he’s still arrogant after what he and his sister did. He’s trying to prove himself over nothing. He’s even lucky we haven’t suggested beating him and his sister up.”“Just a small shove and he’s shouting. What a foolish person,” one of them hissed.One of the boys, about Nolan’s age

Madam Lene didn’t like Nolan’s cold expression. Yes, he had acknowledged and greeted and had shook her hand, but she could tell that the waves coming off him weren’t friendly. She was not just any kind of person and not only was she pretty, but her family was also very well off. She owned one of the most luxurious stores in the plaza and was rich, but Nolan didn’t even show any slight interest in her or smile, which made her kind of annoyed.Thinking about it again, Nolan wasn’t just any type of person, he was a wealthy man who had just bought a series of stores in the plaza, so she kind of expected his reaction too. He might be trying also not to say anything because they were all in front of people, but unbeknownst to her, Nolan had other things in his head than acknowledging her. He didn’t have plans to, not after what her workers had done to him.“It’s good that the owner of the store and Dave are here together. Now I can talk about the reason why I asked Dave to come here,” Nolan

“I appreciate your kindness but I’m afraid that I would have to decline. I want to pay for the clothes by myself and with my own money,” Nolan answered coldly without even blinking, his voice was calm but was also enough to make it clear that he wasn’t about to change his mind.Madam Lene laughed nervously, trying hard to cover up the embarrassment she was feeling at that moment. This was not how she thought Nolan would reply at all. She had already imagined how things would turn out and thought that if she gave Nolan the clothes for free, he would be grateful and maybe even look at her differently, maybe he would feel impressed by her generosity or at least speak to her in a friendly way, but she was disappointed because it didn’t work.“Oh, okay then, how about the membership discount fee? It’s our store policy and you can’t decline this,” she said quickly, forcing a smile even though it was obvious she was upset that he had rejected her offer again. She was still trying to save f

Lilian was dressed in a simple, fitted gown but she still managed to look stunning without even trying to be. Her hair was packed up in a small neat bun and her natural beauty did the rest. The moment she stepped into the classroom, the entire atmosphere changed instantly because everyone turned to look at her at the same time. She didn’t even have to say a word, her presence alone drew attention. It wasn’t intentional and it just happens. She was simply that type of girl.Some girls hated her for that reason and no matter where she went, there were always girls who felt threatened by her beauty and confidence. Even now, as she walked deep into the classroom, some of the girls instantly started whispering among themselves. Their eyes were full of insecurity and jealousy. They looked at Lilian and then looked down at themselves, like they suddenly didn’t feel good enough. They whispered stupid things, rolling their eyes and pretending not to care, but it was already obvious that they w

The other girls looked at the way Lilian was behaving toward Nolan, completely shocked at how she was overreacting by hitting him badly. They believed that Lilian and Nolan were in a relationship, and because of that, they thought it should have been okay for him to touch her in that kind of way, especially since couples were always close and playful with each other. But standing there now and watching Lilian attack Nolan like he was her worst enemy, they all started to have mixed feelings and nothing about them being together was making sense anymore.They began whispering among themselves, confused. If Lilian and Nolan were really dating like everyone thought, then why was she acting like this toward him? And another thing, who on earth would beat up their own boyfriend? Someone they claim to love so much? It didn’t make any sense at all. Her anger didn’t look normal or playful, she was actually furious, like she had been waiting for this moment to unleash all her frustration on him
