Chapter 431
Courtney quickly shook her head in embarrassment, wondering why she couldn't stop thinking about Kingsley ever since she saw him after he had grown up. After all, she was hardly ever interested in dating men.
While Courtney was trying to calm herself down from her racing heartbeat, the atmosphere was suddenly filled with the audience's thunderous claps and cheers. It was then that she snapped out of her trance and saw a dancer doing an airflare onstage. At the same time, Queenie also shouted in excitement, "Woohoo! He is so handsome!"
As everyone else was cheering for the dancers on the stage, three people in the crowd barely paid any attention to the performance. Instead, they kept their eyes fixed on Courtney and Queenie.
It turned out that two of the three people were Calvin and Courtney's roommate, Catherine. However, the third person with them appeared to have thin eyebrows and an oblong face, which suggested that he might not be from Qustia.
Calvin squinted and fixed his resentment-filled eyes on Courtney. "Catherine, is that lady Kingsley's sister?"
"Yes, I'm pretty sure it's her!" Catherine was seen with a pair of swollen eyes, which indicated that she might have cried the whole night the night before. Thanks to Zeke, her cheeks were also red and swollen since he had slapped her ten times the day before.
Because of that, Catherine clenched her fists tightly, burying her bright red fingernails in her palms hatefully. "I heard how Kingsley talked to this lady. Even if they're not siblings, I'm sure they're close friends with each other." Deep down, Catherine hated Kingsley and Courtney so much that she wished she could just kill them and dismember their dead bodies.
After Catherine escaped from Patek Phillipe with Zeke, the man pointed at her angrily and blamed her for what happened. "You're a jinx! A b*tch who ruins everything! If you hadn't gone around telling everybody that I was Mr. Maslow's good friend, I wouldn't have been humiliated so badly. Get out of my face and stay away from me! I don't ever want to see you again, you disgusting b*tch!"
Upon hearing Zeke's heartless words, Catherine was stunned. She then kneeled on the floor and wrapped her arms around Zeke's lap, begging him not to leave her. Nevertheless, Zeke landed a kick on her and walked away without looking back. Thus, the first thing that Catherine did was bury herself in the bed with her pillow and cried out loud the moment she returned to her bedroom.
Although her vengeful nature kept tempting her to pick a fight with Courtney, she restrained herself from doing so when she thought of Queenie, who was Courtney's close roommate. Knowing that she would be outnumbered and outmatched by the two of them, she decided to wait until the right moment before striking. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
As Catherine continued to cry until midnight, she stumbled upon some news about her schoolmates, having learned that the Student Representative Council's president, Calvin, had been taught a lesson by a freshman when he was dining at a restaurant. Not only was he forced to lick the gravy on the floor, but he was also so badly injured that he had to be admitted to the hospital that night. After that incident, Calvin had to have his right arm and left leg bandaged and put in a cast.
At the same time, two pictures were attached to the news article. One of them appeared to be a blurred photo taken in the restaurant, while the other showed Calvin walking on one foot with a walking stick in his hand. When Catherine saw that picture, she couldn't help but feel sympathetic for Calvin's humiliation, considering how popular he was.
Nevertheless, she immediately squinted to take a closer at the photo when something appeared to grab her attention. That looks rather familiar. Three seconds later, Catherine bounced off the bed in
excitement. Isn't that Kingsley? He's the guy responsible for my breakup with Zeke! In that instant, she immediately sent Calvin a message and proposed to work with him to exact her revenge on Kingsley.
…
As such, both of them sat together as they were ready to make their move against Courtney. Soon, Calvin said with a glacial look on his face, "Great! That guy embarrassed me in front of the entire school. Now, I'm going to let him have a taste of his own medicine!" He then turned around and looked at the person who had an oblong face beside him, saying, "Mr. Cortez, my arms and legs are now fractured, so I'm counting on you to take care of this matter for me."
