Chapter 15 I’m Not Happy to See Her Cry!

Leah’s words made some classmates echo. “Leah is right. Joshua, look at yourself! Do you think we don’t know what’s on your mind?”

“Why don’t you take a piss and look at yourself? How can you compare to Recce?”

“Yeah. You got married, but you still have feelings for Leah. How shameless!”

Joshua turned a deaf ear and said to Leah, “You may have misunderstood what I meant. I just don’t want to see you walk into a trap!”

Leah looked helpless. “Joshua, can you stop being hypocritical?”

“Don’t you trust me?””

“Look at what you have done over the years. Why should I trust you?”

Joshua rolled up his sleeves, revealing a long scar on his right arm. “What about this?”

Seeing the scar, Leah paused.

She remembered what happened during the first semester of her second year…

At the end of the evening study one day, Leah left school later than usual.

When she passed the entrance of an alley in front of the school, she encountered two punks threatening and teasing her with knives.

At the crucial moment, Joshua suddenly appeared and beat those two gangsters.

However, during the fight, his arm was cut.

Blood kept flowing.

Before leah took him to the hospital to bandage his wound, Joshua disappeared in the night on his second-hand bicycle.

The next day at school, when those classmates saw Joshua bandaging his arm, they mocked him for being injured when he went to someone else’s house to steal things.

Leah wanted to defend Joshua, but Joshua stopped her,

Joshua was worried that if this news was spread, it might become the gossip of Leali

being raped.

It would damage Leali’s reputation.

Hence, only the two of them knew about this.

Since then, Leah, who had no feelings for Joshua before, gradually had a good impression of him.

However, what Leah did not expect was that Joshua was later exposed as a thief.

She began to suspect that the two bullies who teased her were arranged by Joshua to get close to her.

Therefore, Leah’s affection for Joshua completely disappeared…

Now, Joshua showing this scar was a hypocritical act!

This time, her expression became indifferent and cold. “Why should I believe you? Stop your disgusting thoughts!”

“OK!”

Joshua sat down and stopped saying anything.

“Idiot!”

Reece secretly mocked.

There was still a smile on his face. “Leah, have you thought it over?”

Leah glanced at Joshua, took the rose, and nodded. “I will!”

“Wow!”

The classmates burst into cheers and applause.

Amiah comforted Joshua, “I know you feel uncomfortable, but it is so realistic. Don’t take it personally!” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“You don’t understand!” Joshua smiled bitterly.

“Only you understand!”

Amiah pouted.

Reece and Leah sat down again. This time, they sat together

His smile was brimming

Reece glanced at Joshua and said earnestly, “Joshua, I know you are unwilling, but it is reasonable for you to lose to me. I will not argue with you. I heard that your sister needs money in the hospital. As long as you ask, I will lend it to you!”

“No need!”

Joshua refused.

Those classmates looked at him with disdain. “What are you still pretending for at this time? If you want to pretend, you will suffer!”

Leah also persuaded, “Joshua, I really don’t understand you! Your sister needs money to be hospitalized. Why can’t you let go of your dignity? How disappointing!”

Joshua was calm, but Leah’s words were strange to him.

His kind desk mate would never return…

At this time, Quinn spoke sarcastically, “Reece, I know you have a little money and want to show off. But let me remind you. Joshua’s job is to clean the toilets in my company. It’s not that he doesn’t want to borrow. He just can’t pay it back to you!”

“So that’s how it is!”

Reece held his chin and thought for a moment. Suddenly, a hint of ridicule appeared in his eyes. “Actually, it’s fine. I’m happy. As long as Joshua can give me and Leah sincere blessings, I will give it to him!”

Joshua narrowed his eyes. “Oh? What kind of blessing?”

Reece picked up a bottle of liquor and slammed it on the table. “It’s very simple. You finish it at once and then perform a strip dance on the spot! I will give you money as long as everyone is happy!”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone cheered.

Leah slightly frowned and felt that it was inappropriate, but she did not stop it.

She believed that Joshua would agree because of money, and it was useless to stop him!

Quinn and Cierra had no place to vent their anger, and now they wanted to bully Joshua too. “Strip, strip! It suits you, pervert!”

However, at that moment, a waitress came in to interrupt and said to Reece, “Sir, I’m really sorry. The lobster has been reserved by other tables. There is no stock left. Why don’t you change it to something else?”

Reece was showing off. Now, his face darkened. “Who has the guts to snatch it from

us

Several male classmates also echoed, “That’s right. Who dares to fight with Mr. Swale?”

“I want to see who is so awesome in New York!”

The waitress looked conflicted. “Sir, you should leave the guest alone. He is not someone you can mess with. Why don’t you…”

Bang!

Reece slammed the table and interrupted her. “Why are you talking so much nonsense? Today, I will not leave. The lobster must be served to us. If they have any objections, come to me!”

After the waitress left, the crowd changed the topic to Joshua.

They clamored to watch Joshua take off his clothes and dance.

Amiah couldn’t sit still. “Enough!”

She glared at all the people on the table who were against Joshua and said with red eyes, “You are powerful. You have money, but you don’t have to humiliate people like this!”

Reece said, “Amiah, I know you have a good relationship with Joshua, but do you know what Joshua needs? It’s money! Do you have money? Can you lend Joshua money?”

Without waiting for Amiah to speak, Cierra interrupted. “She, Amiah, is just a Yuga teacher, earning a few hundred dollars a month. She doesn’t have money!”

A female classmate who had always been jealous of Amiah’s appearance also shouted insults. “That’s not necessarily the case. If she hits on rich men, she can earn a few hundred dollars in one night!”

“Just look at her, and I can tell that she is a slut. Why is she pretending to be a tomboy?”

“You keep standing on Joshua’s side. If you have the ability, why don’t you dance with Joshua? If you dance, I’m willing to give you some!”

“You…”

Amiah was so angry that she shed tears.

Joshua stood up and handed her a tissue to wipe her tears.

The pair of black eyes swept across everyone present, and he said coldly, “You can humiliate me, but I’m not happy to see her cry!”
