Bab 102
Amelia berdiri tak berdaya terpaku di tempat. Dia tahu bahwa masalah ini tidak akan diselesaikan dengan mudah, tetapi dia tidak berpikir bahwa Leo dan Jacob akan mengatakan hal seperti itu.
Semua orang di sekitar mereka mulai merasa ada yang tidak beres.
Mereka semua adalah teman Amelia jadi, tentu saja, mereka berpihak pada Amelia.
âLeo, Jacob, apa yang kamu coba lakukan? Biarkan saya memberitahu Anda, jangan mencoba sesuatu yang lucu! Jika tidak, kami akan memanggil polisi!â Kata salah satu teman sekamar Amelia.
âYa, jangan mencoba melakukan sesuatu yang lucu. Kami bahkan akan melaporkanmu ke universitas, dan kamu akan dikeluarkan,â salah satu dari mereka menimpali.
âPersetan, ini tidak ada hubungannya denganmu. Jika tidak, aku akan mengacaukan hidupmu juga!â Leo meraung ke gadis-gadis yang baru saja berbicara.
Gadis itu terkejut. Dia tidak berharap Leo berubah menjadi orang yang sama sekali berbeda.
Dia tidak berani mengatakan apa-apa lagi. Leo dan Jacob adalah anak-anak dari keluarga kaya lokal di River City
. Amelia mulai terisak-isak. Bagaimanapun, dia adalah seorang gadis, jadi tentu saja, dia tidak bisa menahan air matanya setelah diancam seperti ini.
âAmelia, tidak ada gunanya menangis. Jika Anda ingin menyelesaikan ini, Anda harus tinggal bersama kami selama satu setengah bulan. Setelah itu, kami berjanji tidak akan mengganggu Anda lagi. Jika tidak, kami akan membuat hidupmu sangat sulit di River City. Pikirkan tentang itu, âLeo terus mengancam.
Amelia memandang David sambil menangis. Saat ini, David adalah satu-satunya orang yang bisa membantunya.
Dia mengerti siapa Davidâbos rahasia Golden Leaf Hotel bukanlah orang biasa.
Paling tidak, latar belakang keluarga Jacob dan Leo tidak akan mampu bersaing dengannya.
David tidak bisa melihat ini lagi.
âTeman-teman, bukankah terlalu berlebihan untuk mengancam seorang gadis seperti ini?â David berkata dengan lemah di satu sisi.
Kedua orang ini membuatnya mengingat pertemuan sepupunya Lily di Lake City.
Jika tidak ada yang membantu Amelia hari ini, sulit untuk mengatakan apa yang akan terjadi padanya.
âDavid, ini bukan urusanmu. Lebih baik jika kamu diam! Kamu tidak bisa menjadi pahlawan yang menyelamatkan gadis itu dalam kesusahan, âkata Leo kepada David.
âI may not be a hero, but I canât watch this anymore.â
âSo what? What can you do?â Leo asked sarcastically.
When David was about to speak, the door of the private room was pushed open slightly.
A head poked in and scanned the situation in the private room. When she saw David, she pushed the door open and walked in.
âHere you are, Dave!I saw your car outside so I knew you had to be here. I finally found you after going to so many private rooms.â
A delinquent with an afro, huge earrings, and thick makeup walked in and said.
Behind her were five to six people with the same dressing style. They looked like they were about 16 or 17 years old.
âSandy, who is this? Why are you looking for him?â The people behind Sandy asked.
âThis is my brother!â Sandy replied.
âYour brother? Why do I not know that you have a brother like this?â
âYou donât know him, but heâs like a brother to me.â
The two of them were still talking.
Leo could not stand this. He was still fuming when those delinquents showed up.
âWhere did these stupid kids come from? Who said you could come in? Get out now!â Leo yelled.
Sandy was confused and she used her pointer finger to point at her nose. Then, she asked, âAre you talking about me?â
âWho else if not you? Get out now! If not, Iâll teach you a lesson on behalf of the adults of your family!â
âYou donât know who I am?â Sandy asked curiously:
âWho are you? Why should I know you? If I knew someone like you, Iâd have beaten you up a long time ago. Look at you, youâre so young but what the hell is that outfit? You look like a thug. How did your parents educate you? Or perhaps you have parents, but they donât have the time to educate you?â Leo asked sarcastically.
Sandy looked at David and asked, âDave, is this your friend?â
âNo,â David gave a one-word reply.
âThatâs easy then,â Sandy said.
Then, she asked Leo, âYouâre pretty f*ck-⦠fantastic. Whatâs your name?â
Sandy wanted to say that Leo was pretty f*cking bad*ss, but since David was here, she changed her choice of words.
âWhatâs my name? Youâre not worthy to know that. I havenât asked you your name yet.â
âWhatâs my name? Come, one of you, tell him,â Sandy said.
Someone walked out from behind Sandy and pointed at her. Then, she said, âHer name is Sandy Luther, the second daughter of the Luther family in River City. Do you know the River City Luther family? Hmm⦠I think thereâs only one Luther family in River City.â
After that person finished talking, she went back to her original position and continued to look at Leo with ridicule.
âHow dare he scold the second daughter of the Luther family? This is going to be good.â
âSandy Luther?
âThe second daughter of the Luther family?â
Jacob could feel his brain buzzing.
He was the first one to come to his senses. Initially, he was siding with Leo, but now, he took a few steps back and stood with the rest of the crowd.
Leo wanted to die, but he did not.
