Chapter 1064: Chapter 1044: How Dare You!
Bella Gordon really had to admire her own imagination!
One person hogging two men?
Did she have that much energy?
Just dealing with Owen Hayes was headache enough for her; after such a long pursuit, he had finally started to come around today, and even then, it was only because of a phone call from her sister yesterday that had provoked him, which had also resulted in poor John being falsely accused!
"Eva Wood, how can your thoughts be so dirty? Chasing after two guys at once, damn, don’t blame me for cursing, you’re truly asking for it!"
This little scoundrel had been chasing after John for a long time, and since John didn’t pay any attention to her, they always had a bit of discord, this school’s girls, in terms of worth, next to Chani Gordon it was her who had the highest, girls care about these things, especially when they are equally outstanding, they all want to be number one, Eva Wood was no exception. She always looked at Chani Gordon with discontent; if her family’s power wasn’t greater than hers, she would have wanted to trample on her already.
"I’m dirty? Two men are fighting over you here, and while clinging to one, you still want to be good friends with the other. Am I the dirty one? Perhaps any person with a normal way of thinking would feel that your private life is not decent, and your conduct..."
"Slap!"
Eva Wood’s words were only half out, she had not yet finished them, when she was silenced by a crisp and loud slap.
The eyes of Chani Gordon and Eva Wood widened at the same time, both somewhat in disbelief as they looked at Owen Hayes; Chani truly hadn’t expected that he would so decisively hit someone, and it was the Wood family’s heiress at that.
It took a moment before Chani asked dumbly, "I remember you saying you don’t hit women, right?"
From the beginning when she started pursuing him, Owen Hayes was very annoyed by her, there was one time she really irritated him, and he came back with: If you weren’t a woman, I’d definitely give you a good beating!
That meant he didn’t hit women, right?
"When did I ever say I don’t hit women!" Owen Hayes glanced indifferently at Chani Gordon, then said nonchalantly, "I just don’t hit you!"
Other people, though, might still get hit!
"Some women just love to rely on their status as a woman to spout nastiness as if their mouths shouldn’t be on their faces, should I let her insult my woman in front of me with that filthy mouth?" Owen Hayes glared coldly at Eva Wood, covering her mouth, "In the future, when you see Chani, stay far away from me, and if I hear any more nonsense from you, I’ll hit you again!"
"Owen Hayes, how dare you hit me? And you dare to threaten me? Who do you think you are? I’ll go back and tell my dad and my uncle to ruin your Hayes family!"
Eva Wood dared to stand up to Chani Gordon not only because the Wood family’s status in Andras City was second only to the Gordon family, making her the only one with such a claim to worth, but also because her mother was the daughter of Dato City’s richest man. Their parents had a business marriage, so one family was connected to two families, and the Gordon family even had some fear of offending them, but she didn’t hold the Hayes family in her eyes at all!
"Then you try it!!"
If he had the guts to hit her, why would he be afraid of her threats?
Chani Gordon had never liked to use her family’s wealth and power to talk to people, let alone threaten anyone, "Eva Wood, if you have the guts, don’t bring your family’s background into it. Why drag your parents into a child’s issue at school? If you really want to push people around with your power, don’t blame me, Chani Gordon, for bullying with my status. Your family and your uncle’s family put together are nothing compared to what I have just in Andras City—I’ve got four major families: the Gordon family, the Jensen family, the Smith family, and the Hayes family from my God’s family. To say they’d take care of the Wood family is an understatement; they’d clean out your uncle’s distant household too. Oh, by the way, if we’re talking numbers, how does your uncle’s family stack up against my brother-in-law’s Thompson family?"
As expected, hearing Chani’s words, Eva Wood’s face instantly turned pale. Her Wood family might be powerful in Andras City, but next to the Gordon family, they were nothing. Of course, there were also the Smith and Jensen families, because they were all in one family. Another reason she dared to confront Chani was that she never measured herself against others using her family background—otherwise, how could she dare?
She never expected Chani to be so ruthless this time, spilling all these beans. It looked like she really stepped on a landmine!
Not to mention the four families of Andras City, the Thompson family alone from Corda City, which spans military, political, and commercial domains, was frightening just to think about. Apparently, her brother-in-law was utterly obedient to her!
It seemed her slap was in vain!
"So, Eva Wood, let me give you a piece of advice. Children’s matters should be left to the children. Don’t drag your family into it, or you’ll be the one who suffers in the end!"
"Yeah! School matters shouldn’t involve parents, right?"
"Otherwise, those who are just slightly less well-off than you would be too scared to even talk to you. What kind of friends would you have then?"
"Exactly, I agree with Chani’s words. Keep things separate!"
"I agree too!"
Upon hearing Chani being so fierce for the first time, a bunch of people immediately echoed her sentiments. Considering Chani’s usually good popularity and Eva’s poor performance just moments ago, it was perfectly normal for everyone to be unable to stand by and watch.
"Let me tell you, I don’t like Willy Smith, and Willy Smith doesn’t like me either. The root of today’s misunderstanding was my sister, Bella Gordon, who played a prank on me while I was on the phone with my God. Do you honestly think Willy Smith, with his wooden head, would send me flowers? He probably doesn’t even know how to buy flowers!"
Bianca took the opportunity to clarify to everyone, "I still like my little God, Mr. Owen Hayes. As for John, his mom and my mom are the world’s best friends, so of course, I wouldn’t ignore him over a misunderstanding. However, I do need to apologize to classmate Willy Smith!"
Having said that, she bowed deeply to Willy Smith, "I’m sorry. In my attempt to help my sister chase her God, I carelessly mentioned a boy’s name, and it just so happened to pick yours, causing you trouble. I apologize for that. But to show my sincerity, I’ll help you win over your little Goddess. Go for it!!"
Little Goddess?
It turned out Willy Smith wasn’t interested in Chani Gordon. That was initially good news. As long as he didn’t like Chani, all the girls still stood a chance. But before they could rejoice, the revelation that he had a crush on his own little Goddess came out, truly dashing their hopes—it would be better if he had just admitted to liking Chani, cutting off their lingering thoughts!
The scuffle was thus settled, and the crowd slowly dispersed. Chani just tilted her head back, looking up at Owen Hayes’s slightly unnatural face and his faintly red ears, and suddenly felt completely satisfied in her heart.
"Turns out, you really do like me this much, huh? To think you were willing to duel for me?"
Chani, amused by her God’s unusual confession, naturally felt delighted, "Now, I’m your Goddess, as you said yourself, I didn’t say anything, oh. If you deny this, I just might stop talking to you. Just like Senna Leon, I could go abroad to study and be out of sight, out of mind..."
"You wouldn’t dare!!"
