Nolan shifted awkwardly where he stood. He really didn’t like the situation he was in at all. If Lilian hadn’t forced him to come here in the first place, he would never have stepped into this house. Honestly, he couldn’t wait to leave this place already.“How about you leave first, Nolan,” Lilian’s dad suddenly said, bringing Nolan out of his thoughts. “There’s nothing more for you to do here, so leave now.”He said it very rudely, like he didn’t care at all.“You can’t do this, dad!” Lilian said angrily.“Oh, it’s totally fine,” Nolan said quickly. “I just remembered that I actually have something to do, so I’ll have to get back to it. So I’ll go first. It’s not that I want to leave because your dad said so. It is not a problem for real.”Without saying anything else, Nolan turned and began to leave.“Where the hell do you think you’re going!? Did I ask you to leave!? Did I ask you to go without me!?” Lilian yelled at Nolan angrily, making him stop dead in his tracks.Her voice was

More like she would have already slapped that lewd look off his face. And if things got worse, she might have even beaten him up to the point that he would become completely unrecognizable. That was how angry she felt about the way he had been looking at her. He was so irritating. Meanwhile, while this silent tension was happening between Lilian and Carter, their parents didn’t notice anything at all. They were too busy greeting each other happily.“It would be great if our children start to date,” Lilian’s mum said with a laugh, clearly sounding pleased about the idea, more like pushing the idea more. “Well, I guess it still depends on the both of them,” Mrs Damien replied with a smile on her face. Her eyes briefly moved toward Carter and Lilian again as she said that. She didn’t mind Carter and Lilian dating or getting married but she wasn’t the type to force her son on something he doesn’t want. If Carter had said he didn’t want Lilian, she wouldn’t be standing in her house today

Lilian couldn’t just behave rashly and pretend her dad’s words didn’t affect her at all.What Lilian’s dad said to Nolan didn’t sit well with him. In fact, his behaviour made him feel very unhappy and he didn’t want to stay in that house anymore.He had already had enough of everything that was happening there.So when Lilian’s dad told him to leave, it actually gave him a very good opportunity to leave the house without refusing.“I need to go,” Nolan said to Lilian as he gently removed his arm from her grip.Just as Nolan was about to open the door, someone else suddenly pushed it open from outside.The sudden movement made him step back a little and standing at the door was a girl. She looked around the same age as Lilian, or maybe even younger and was dressed in a luxury dress as well.Her face had heavy makeup on it, and she was wearing big round glasses on her face. The girl stepped inside slowly. When she saw Nolan standing there, she suddenly stopped and stared at him for a mo

Everyone stared at Nolan, taking in what Carter had said. Lilian’s parents’ faces darkened as realization slowly dawned on them. They began to put two and two together. Suddenly, Abby’s words didn’t seem so far-fetched anymore. Maybe Nolan really had come from a poor background.Lilian’s dad walked toward Nolan, his steps heavy and angry. He stopped right in front of him, towering over him. “You bastard,” he said sharply, his voice booming through the room. “How dare you come into my house to fool us? How dare you even think that you can come here and claim that you want to be my daughter’s boyfriend? You have no right! How dare you even think about dating my daughter!”“Dad, you need to calm down,” Lilian said quickly, stepping in front of Nolan. Her hands were on his shoulders as she tried to shield him. “Don’t listen to what Carter has to say. Nolan is not that kind of person. And honestly, it’s his clothes, his choice. Carter’s eyes narrowed, and he sneered. “Oh, please. Don’t yo

“I honestly don’t even know what Nolan’s parents were thinking when they decided to send him to such an expensive school because I remember seeing his mum coming to school many times just to beg so he could remain in class, which was very pathetic. Our teachers and even the owner of the school were already so fed up with the constant visitation.” “They were tired of his parents coming to beg every single time they couldn’t pay his school fees. I can’t even count the number of times his parents had shown up in school with their ridiculous and smelly outfits. It became so embarrassing that sometimes the teachers would just send him out of class immediately and not listen to what his parents had to say because it wasn’t fair on us that had paid our own fees already.” “His family was so poor that if they had not decided to become cleaners, I don’t even think they would have been able to feed properly. Nolan was always looking at us whenever we were eating our food and snacks. One of my
