Hannah felt like she was going to throw up after looking at Fred for a while. He was neither handsome nor all that bad looking. But to her, that was the worst looking person that she had seen all her life.
"How could someone exist that could still be this ugly?" She muttered aloud not even caring that someone's feeling was getting trampled upon by her words.
Fred bowed his head slightly, wishing already that the ground would open up and swallow him out of the embarrassment that he had experienced.
After putting on so much that he was going to look presentable, it still wasn't enough.
Hw thought about Riley that was always good looking even though he had to always to hard labor and didn't even have a skin care routine. But even with his skin care, it was more like his skin didn't care at all.
For the first time, he was jealous of Riley but soon snapped the thoughts off from his head.
"What are you even thinking about, Fred." He soon whispered to himself and braised himself up.
She replied with an irritated snort before turning around as though she had not seen anyone at all.
Fred could feel his heart dropping to the bottom of his feet seeing the reaction that he had been given and he felt truly bad.
Karl also did this and felt bad for his friends. If they didn't like him, they could have just said it instead of giving such a reaction.
The irritated duo quickly turned around ignoring his greeting as they continued talking to each other as though they had never even seen anyone.
Fred could feel a large lump going down his throat already. He wasn't good-looking. However, he wasn't ugly either.
"It's been such a long time since I saw someone this looking." Hannah snorted.
"Even if I was added to a bowl filled with oil I don't think that I will ever get that way." They snorted.
Fred was beginning to feel bad and Karl could feel the anger rising inside of him but was gradually able to control his anger. They were still Sarah's friends anyway.
To break the awkwardness in the place, he quickly walked off to his roommates and patted them on the shoulders.
"Why don't we get seated." He gestured to the seats.
Immediately after he said these words, Hannah and Tina quickly gathered their chairs towards each other, leaving Fred and Eddie to themselves.
They all sat down, all sitting next to each other.
"Sarah. Do you care to dance with me tonight? You don't expect me to be with one of those eh." She paused, taking a clean sweep at both of them.
"Sure. I would love to have a dance with you." She replied.
Stacy was utterly disappointed. After seizing up everyone on the basketball team, she was hoping that she would find someone like Karl. Even though not that rich, it was still manageable.
She noticed that there were only two of them who were roommates with Karl instead of three.
"Huh! Isn't there supposed to be four people in your room? How come there are only three of you here??" Inquired Stacy.
"Oh! The last person. Riley would be here pretty soon. He went out to make a call." Karl explained.
These words that he just spoke made her fluster with a smile. She already did all the calculations in her head.
"Two non-basketball-playing ugly ducklings. And two ripped handsome dudes. The last one just has to be super quiet. There is no way that the captain of the school's basketball team wouldn't have at least a member of his team as his roommate." The thoughts filled her mind.
"At least, I still got a chance and I am not going to appear before everyone as single for another year." Stacy was still smiling as she whispered her thoughts to herself.
Her intuition made her pop out a mirror from her Louis Vuitton bag and stare at it. She smiled to herself pushing her boobs out to the limelight, making her even more attractive.
'Husbie. Where are you? Your dearest is waiting.,
The events that lay before them made it obvious to Karl and his Sarah. that she was anticipating meeting with Riley.
Karl's face broke up into a cold sweat. Though Riley didn't look bad, his was too ordinary for someone like Stacy who was a wealthy millionaire heir.
Even Stacy was a little bit uneasy, trying to calm her down already so that she was not going to be too disappointed when she saw the person that was coming in.
"Stacy. I think that you are good looking as you are already. There is no need for you to do too much." She said,
"Too much? Too much isn't even good enough, I have to look perfect." Stacy replied, still working on her hair without even turning around to face the others.
He was worried that there was going to be a disaster there.
The other duo hearing that someone else was coming were suddenly interested and their eyes lit up.
"Huh? Someone else is coming? Tell us, Karl, is he handsome?" They Inquired almost at the same time.
A lump went down his spine again and it was like he was under some sort of pressure.
'What am I going to tell them now.' He was confused about what he was going to say.
"He isn't bad-looking." Sarah stepped in for Karl.
"Huh!" Hannah snorted.
"Not bad looking! You are trying to make your girlfriend sound almighty, aren't you? Why don't Karl tell us himself." Tina ventured.
"Well is handsome. Depending on the qualities that you are searching for in a guy. However, I don't think that you guys should be expecting too much." He added with a tensed chuckle.
They nodded abruptly, turning around with large grins on their faces.
They thought that Karl was trying to act modest and that whoever was coming was differently hot.
They stared at Stacy with the glaring looks of jealousy in their eyes wishing that they were the ones that had this person instead.
However, she was the celebrant of the event and it would only be normal to allow her to have the best...
"At least he will not be as wonderful looking as those golden Goose.". Hannah said loud enough for Fred and Eddie to hear her words with a mighty snort.
They looked away, hoping that the moment was not going to be too awkward.
At that moment, Karl received a call from Riley and he picked the phone up immediately.
"Hey, Karl. Where are you guys? I have been searching all over for you. This place is kinda huge." Riley mustered from the other end of the phone.
"Oh. Just tell me where you are, I am going to catch up with you."
Riley filled Karl in with the information about where he was at the moment, after which he walked right out to see him...
Stacy had already applied a few extra layers of makeup on her face. Doing all that she could to impress this person who was coming over
A few moments later, Karl could be seen walking in with someone beside him.
Quickly, Stacy replaced her makeup kits in her bag and placed the most stunning smile on her face. She was a goddess.
However, when he looked at him, her heart fell to the bottom of her feet and the smile that had been meant to win him over froze almost in an instant.
A few moments later, her face so red with anger, remembering what had happened between them and how he had ruined her day
Riley also recognized that person. Who could he ever forget the face of the person who had rejected his billion-dollar card?
The others also looked over. They had already given up this guy for Stacy since she was the celebrant.
However, it wasn't going to be out of place to behold some hot guy with the perfect smile.
However, when they looked at him. They quickly lost interest. What is the use of a good face when you look like someone who just got picked from the trash?
They were most sorry for Stacy who had put in so much effort to impress such a dumb kin. They looked at her, to console her only to notice the furious gaze laced all over her face.
"Stacy, are you okay?" Sarah was the first to inquire...
Of course, it was enough to feel disappointed after seeing how badly the person that was standing before her looked. But for her face to be twisted with this much anger, there had to be something more to it.
For a while, Stacy could not say anything and only kept on staring at Riley with the anger gradually rising in her.
"This is the guy that I had told you guys about. The one that had ruined the dress that I got for five hundred dollars." She announced with her hands tapping the table furiously.
"Huh!" Hannah and Tina exclaimed almost immediately.
"This is the bitch? He is even more pitiful looking than I had thought." Tina added.

Chapter 145
Riley looked at Rossline for a moment before scoffing. "You are his girlfriend. You're supposed to know his character and how bad it is."Rossline sighed and glanced toward the classroom where Nearl had disappeared. "I was surprised too. When we first met, he seemed gentle and polite. I never expected him to become like this."Riley scoffed again, folding his arms. "He hid it well enough”Rossline remained silent for a moment before looking directly at him. Then, almost casually, she asked, "Do you think he is the owner of this school? The secret owner of this school?"Riley's expression changed slightly. He stared at her. "I doubt that. What makes you really think that?"Rossline simply smiled."Nothing."Riley frowned. "Nothing?""We'll talk later." Rossline paused before adding, "And thanks for the other day."Before Riley could ask what she meant, she turned around and walked away.Riley watched her leave, his brows slightly furrowed. "Why would Rossline think Nearl is the secret

With that, the second game began.This time, Riley personally selected the paddle and the ball before handing them to Nearl. Nearl accepted both without hesitation, giving Riley a faint smile before taking his position across from Karl. The crowd grew quiet again, everyone eager to see whether Nearl could repeat his earlier performance without the paddle he had used during the final.The whistle sounded.Karl served first.The ball crossed the net, and Nearl returned it with a simple stroke. Karl immediately moved into position, ready for the ball to come back toward him, but at the last second, it suddenly curved away from his paddle. He swung and missed completely.The crowd gasped.Nearl remained calm.The next rally was even more intense. Karl tried using different spins and angles, but Nearl seemed to read everything. He would make what looked like an ordinary return, yet the ball would suddenly change direction after bouncing, forcing Karl to move desperately across the table."

Riley stepped forward until he stood directly before Principal Paul.His voice was calm, but it carried clearly across the silent sports hall."Principal Paul... I just saw you smuggle the paddle Nearl used during the final out of the arena."For a heartbeat—No one reacted. Then the entire hall erupted into stunned murmurs."What?""Smuggle the paddle?""What does he mean?""Did I hear that right?"Students looked at one another in complete confusion, while the teachers exchanged puzzled glances. Principal Paul's expression darkened."What the hell are you talking about?" he demanded sharply. "Smuggle Nearl's paddle? Explain yourself."Without saying another word, Riley slowly raised his hand and pointed toward the student volunteer who had almost reached the exit."The paddle is inside that black sack."The volunteer froze in place. His eyes widened in surprise as every person inside the arena turned to look at him."I... I..."He instinctively tightened his grip on the sack, unsure

Claire brushed her hair back with a trembling hand as she heard Riley accept the challenge.Her heart sank.She couldn't believe he had actually said yes.Jerry stared at Riley for a few seconds before a grin slowly spread across his face."I like your courage," he said with a chuckle. "But sadly... it's going to make you a cripple."The smile on his face grew even wider."Since you're this desperate, let's make it an official spar."Those words immediately caught everyone's attention. Even the students who had gathered nearby leaned in with curiosity.Riley frowned slightly."Official?" he asked. "What do you mean by official?"Jerry slipped both hands into his pockets."Actually," he began with a relaxed smile, "there's an underground tournament held every night."He glanced around before continuing."It's not legal, of course. People usually go there to place bets... or simply watch for entertainment. That's where I'd like to cripple you."Fred's expression instantly became more se

Jerry, Williams, and Cory all scoffed the moment they saw Riley.Riley didn't stop walking.With a calm expression on his face, he stepped closer until only a few feet separated him from Jerry.The atmosphere instantly became tense.Neither of them looked away.Jerry was still gripping Claire's wrist tightly.A smug smile spread across his face as his eyes wandered over Riley's body."I can see you've healed already," Jerry said with a scoff. "That was quicker than I expected."Before Riley could answer, Williams stepped forward with a mocking smile."Look," he said, pointing lazily at Riley, "I'll give you some advice. Just leave already. This has nothing to do with you."Riley's expression didn't change."It has everything to do with me," he replied calmly as he looked at Jerry's hand gripping Claire's wrist. "You're cornering my friend. Let her go right now."Jerry glanced at Claire before looking back at Riley.A cold laugh escaped his mouth."You really must need another beating.
Chapter 140
Monday morning arrived.Riley stood at the front gate of the school, looking up at the familiar campus. The bruises on his face had faded considerably over the past few days. "Riley!"A familiar voice called excitedly from behind him.He turned around just as Mira hurried over, her school bag bouncing against her shoulder."There you are!" she exclaimed before stopping in front of him. She frowned almost immediately. "How did you leave the hospital without telling anyone? And where did you even go? I came to visit you yesterday, and the nurse said you'd already been discharged."Riley scratched the back of his head with an embarrassed smile. "Sorry. I was discharged earlier than expected. I just went to visit one of my relatives. He was dying to see me."Mira let out a long sigh and folded her arms."You should have called me. You didn't even come work, and you didn't answer any messages. I was worried.""Sorry," Riley said sincerely. Mira looked him up and down before her expressio
