âThere is nothing I can do if you refuse to admit it, but I want to let you know that Lilian is not my girlfriend. Iâd advise you to be a little smarter when choosing your victim. I donât care if anything happens to her,â said Casper.
âRemy, though, is a different story. If you keep conning him like this, I will teach you what regret truly feels like. In fact, I will make you pay if you hurt a hair on his head. Iâll be frank with you. Your social status and familyâs power mean nothing to me because I can crush you all the same,â whispered Casper.
His voice was soft, but Jessica could hear every single word clearly.
She turned to look at him. That gaze got her to tremble in fear. It was as if she had accidentally offended an all-powerful demon.
Truth was, Casper was never a good person. He would go through hell for the people he cared about, but he was not a pacifist. He wouldnât mind hurting others.
And the same goes for anyone in the Simpson family.
When Casper was a kid, he didnât learn about helping others to benefit himself, nor did he learn about hurting others to benefit himself.
His sole focus had always been to maximize his profit.
If they hadnât had special training like that, the Simpson family would not have remained powerful for over a thousand years. Their enemies wouldâve gobbled them up and left no bones behind. Their accomplishments were proof of their power.
At that moment, Jessica felt like she had bumped into a fierce wolf, which was glaring menacingly at her. It felt like the wolf would swallow her whole if the opportunity ever present itself.
She suddenly regretted ever stepping on Casperâs tail.
This man is definitely not the regular student he pretends to be in schoolâ¦
Casper grinned in satisfaction when he saw Jessicaâs reaction. He had accomplished his mission.
All that was left to do was for Jessica to be smart and back off.
If she doesnât, I will make her pay for everything she had done. If that ever happens, it would not be a pleasant experience for Jessica.
Casper didnât waste any time in the classroom after he saw how scared Jessica was. He stood up and left the place.
Naturally, his next destination was Giselleâs dorm.
The mere thought of it got Casper so happy that he went to buy some ingredients to make dishes that she enjoyed.
Giselle was changing her clothes when Casper was heading to her dorm.
That was the first time she was nervous about having Casper there, and it was the first time she worried about her appearance.
It didnât matter that Giselle still saw Casper as a ridiculously young man. She couldnât deny that she had fallen for the masculine guy with a young exterior.
She was firm in her stance until the doorbell rang.
Giselle secretly looked down on herself, but she still changed into the outfit she thought she looked best in. She was quick to get to the door and open it for Casper.
Unfortunately, the man standing behind the door wasnât the one she fell in love with.
It was Sawyer.
He had a gigantic bouquet of red roses with him and was down on one knee as he stared lovingly at her.
âGigi, this is the forty-eighth time I declare my love for you. My heart has never swayed or changed, and I pray that you can feel how sincere I am.â
He couldnât hide the passion and lust in his eyes when he saw how beautiful she looked after she dolled up.
Giselle was naturally beautiful and exuded a calming aura. After dressing up, she was like a beauty queen and could attract anyone.
Sawyer truly wanted to pin her on the bed and have his way with her at that moment.
âMy love for you will never falter, and nothing can dissuade me. Here are ninety-nine chocolates to signify how much I love you.â
Giselle frowned and shook her head.
I canât believe this guyâs pestering me again. Ugh, why canât I get rid of him?
The practically blatant lust in his eyes utterly disgusted Giselle.
That was when she thought about Casper.
His gaze had always been crystal clear, and he had never shown the lust that every man had. There wasnât even a hint of fault in those eyes.
His gaze is pure and genuine.
âMr. Lingham, this will be the forty-eighth time Iâm rejecting you. I honestly have no feelings for you, and you deserve someone who loves you. Why do you insist on wasting your time on me?â said Giselle.
âBut Gigi, I truly love you. Why wonât you give me a chance? No one is better suited for each other than you and I are!â
Coincidentally, Casper arrived at Giselleâs dorm as well. He even got an overview of the crazy scenario playing out in front of him.
No ordinary man could handle hearing how Sawyer was persistently badgering the woman he loved.
And Casper was a little more than an ordinary man.
He had already regarded Giselle as his future wife and Mrs. Simpson of the Simpson family. Which freaking idiot is hitting on my wife?
The fury of the Simpson familyâs heir was not something that anyone could handle.
However, it seemed that Sawyer was going to wrath of Casper Simpson that day.
Casper grinned as he walked to Sawyer. The only problem was that Casperâs grin shone with just a hint of veiled anger.
âHey, arenât you the guy who treated us to a few teapots full of exquisite tea last time? What brought you here?â said Casper with fake enthusiasm as he stared at Sawyer.
Sawyer turned around and saw Casper, who was still wearing cheap clothing. The formerâs eyes shone with distaste as he demanded, âWhat are you doing here?â
âOh, Ms. Clauder invited me over to her dorm, so naturally, I have to drop by,â replied Casper. As he spoke, his tone carried a hint of taunt. He had his head high and was proud when he shared that information.
Giselle couldnât help giggling at Casper when she saw the face he put on in front of Sawyer.
Sawyer saw the smile on Giselleâs face and the mischievous grin on Casperâs. That got the guy to turn grouchy and asked, âGigi, why did you invite him over to your dorm? Why was I never invited?â
âIsnât it obvious? I was invited because Iâm hot,â answered Casper with a straight face on.
Giselle stared. She had never seen Casper like that before, and she felt like her image of him was slowly crumbling.
However, she didnât hate it. It was quite the opposite. She was happy to see that side of him because she felt like the two of them were getting closer.
That being said, I canât let Sawyer hurt Casper over me.
âCasper is my teaching assistant, and I asked him over because I forgot to hand over some teaching materials to him,â said Giselle.
Sawyerâs expression turned a little better after he heard Giselle speaking up and explaining the situation. His reaction was understandable because he would never imagine that Giselle only spoke up because she was worried about Casper.
As far as Sawyer was concerned, she spoke up because she didnât want him to misread the situation.
That means she does care about me!
Casper, however, was gritting his teeth after hearing what Giselle said.
Teaching assistant? Here to collect some teaching materials? Fine⦠thought Casper as he nodded. He could feel himself losing his cool and on the verge of going off.
I couldnât do anything to Giselle, but Sawyer? Yeah, he will make an excellent punching bag.
Casper strategized about how he would drag Sawyer away and beat the guy up. Or maybe I will do something entirely new and vile⦠Just as his thoughts were running wild, Giselle voiced up again.
