Chapter 1

"What's with all these noises?" A puzzled expression etched on Henry's face as he walked into the compound and all he could hear was loud music and people chanting and having fun from inside.

He wasn't aware of a party happening here today.

Today was his girlfriend's birthday, and the couple had agreed to celebrate it quietly in the apartment and never said anything about a party or more people coming.

Henry stood there, his hands holding the shopping bag that contained a beautiful dress he got his girlfriend for her birthday.

Since it was her birthday, he thought it would be best to surprise her with something unique and expensive. Saving up his salary he got from delivering junk foods, he was able to buy a beautiful dress which he might not get to present the way he had planned with all these people present.

After standing on the same spot like a statue for a few more minutes, he began to advance forward and make his way towards the entrance door.

The more he approached the door, the louder the noises from inside intensified. Pushing it open, Henry walked into the vast living room and glanced around with a frown.

The living room was crowded with different people who seemed to be dancing and having fun. Henry swept his gaze through the place looking for his girlfriend, Elena. 

After glancing around and failing to find her, he began to squeeze his way through the crowd and made his way forward.

"Excuse me!" Henry called out as he walked towards a lady who sat on a sofa and was busy gulping beer. "Have you seen Elena?" Henry inquired.

The lady was Elena's best friend known as Summers.

"You mean her?" Summers rolled her eyes while pointing to a certain spot in the living room. Henry's eyes glanced at the spot she pointed to and could see his girlfriend giving a strange man a lap dance and was visibly enjoying it.

Catching a glimpse of the scene, Henry was taken aback and he clenched the bag in his hands in anger.

"Word of advice, just get the hell out of here and don't bother approaching them." Summers uttered with a sneer as she picked up another bottle and began to gulp.

Henry stood there in anger as he watched the duo dancing and having fun before making his way towards them.

"Elena!" Henry called out, his voice audible and filled with anger.

Hearing the word of Henry, Elena paused in her action and shifted her gaze towards him. Realizing who it was, Elena rolled her eyes and resumed her business with the strange man that Henry has never seen before.

Henry's heart twitched and both anger and sadness surged through his body. He couldn't believe that the one person he made sure to provide all she needed would turn around and do this to him.

Even if Henry wasn't rich and he was nothing but a delivery boy, he still went out of his way to make sure Elena lacked nothing. Even though he rented the house they are having the party in right now, she still turned around to do this to him.

"Elena, I am talking to you!" Unable to take it anymore, Henry voiced out. His voice pierced through the crowd and caught the attention of everyone, causing them to shift their gazes towards the scene.

Elena stood up from the man's laps and turned around to face Henry.

"What do you want?" Elena questioned with a frown.

"What do you mean what do i want? Who are all these guys here? What happened to no party? And who the fuck is this man!" Henry demanded.

"Well, this man is my new boyfriend." Elena responded, rubbing the man's chin with a smile.

"Your what?" Henry blurted out in shock. "Tell me you are joking, Elena."

Hearing the words of Henry, Elena broke out in laughter and the whole crowd joined her in loud laughter.

"What were you expecting, Henry? That I truly loved you and I would spend the rest of my life with you? If that's what you thought then you must be more foolish than you look." Elena retorted in disdain.

Henry gulped in shock as he struggled to digest Elena's words. Her words sounded unreal to him and he found it hard to digest it.

"S-so, you never loved me?" Henry stuttered in a depressed tone.

"Who would ever love a worthless trash like you, Henry? I mean, look at you, you deliver junk food and earn pennies..only a trash panda would see you and want to date you." Elena roared, and the crowd chimed in with laughter.

"She is right. She only dated you to win a bet we both made." The man who sat behind Elena spoke as he rose up from where he sat and took a step towards Henry who had a confused expression on his face.

"A bet?" Henry mumbled in confusion.

"Yup, a bet." The man known as Danny responded. "We agreed that she would date a trash like you for a few months and if she managed to date you this long she would be rewarded a cool amount of money. Honestly,I never knew she would make it this far." Danny explained.

"I had to endure his stench of poverty for all these months, Geez. I am glad it's all over." Elena shook her head with a disgustful look while Henry just stood there with his fists clenched tightly in anger.

"So, what we had...was just a game to you?" Henry questioned through gritted teeth, and Elena once again broke out in laughter.

"Yes, Henry. Danny is right. I only dated you because of the bet we made. You were a fool to believe a girl of high class like me would stoop so low to date a trash like you." Elena retorted glaring at Henry in disdain.

"Get the hell out of here, man. This is no gathering for trash like you." Danny mocked with a smirk. "Wait, is that a gift you got her? Awwn, let me see." Danny then snatched the bag from Henry and took out the dress inside.

"What the fuck is this rag? You seriously went to those local shops to get a dress for a girl like Elena?" Danny chuckled with a look of disgust as he caught a glimpse of the dress inside the bag. "Anyways, this rag would be useful for something at least."

Saying those words, Danny knelt down  and attempted to clean his shoes with the dress Henry bought, but he felt someone gripped his arm from above.

Moving his gaze upwards, he found Henry holding his arm with an angry look on his face.

"Let me go.." Before Danny could finish his words, Henry sent out his clenched fist and it connected neatly to Danny's face, sending him sliding backwards.
