Harry looked up at the sound. A girl in a white dress rose from her seat and walked slowly over to Chloe.
And this girl was Chloe’s best friend, Jessica Martin. She came from a good family and was good-looking, but she was very materialistic. She looked down on Harry the most and had always thought that Harry was not good enough for Chloe. Part of the reason why Chloe and Harry had broken up was because she was sowing discord behind his back.
“If you can speak, say it. If not, close your mouth. I can smell the stench in your mouth from afar.”
Looking at Jessica, Harry snapped back.
In the past, when he was with Chloe, Jessica had mocked him a lot. He had always tolerated Jessica because of Chloe. But now that he and Chloe had broken up, there was naturally no need to give in to her.
Jessica was instantly angry and shouted at Harry, “Harry, do you know how to speak? As expected, you have a mother who gave birth to you but no mother to bring you up. You have no manners and no upbringing.”
She spoke with increasing enthusiasm, paying no attention to Harry’s darkening face.
Although Harry was an orphan and had never felt the warmth of a family since he was young and had no impression of his parents, he would not allow anyone to slander them. That was his bottom line.
“Pa!”
To everyone’s shock, Harry slapped Jessica’s face.
Under the huge force, a pink palm print instantly appeared on Jessica’s fair face. At this moment, she was covering her face and looking at Harry angrily. She roared ferociously, “Harry Wilson, how dare you hit me? I’ll kill you today.”
With that, she tried to rush towards Harry, but Chloe grabbed her by the waist.
Harry was a man, after all, and he was still angry. Jessica would definitely be at a disadvantage if she rushed forward. After all, few women were stronger than men.
“This is a lesson for you. If you can’t control your mouth next time, I won’t be so polite.”
Harry spoke coldly to Jessica, who was baring her fangs and claws.
“Who do you think you are? How dare you lecture me. Just you wait. I’ll definitely teach you a lesson.”
Without thinking, Jessica retorted, then said to Chloe, “Chloe, what are you doing? Let go of me quickly. I’m going to teach Harry a lesson.”
“Jessica, calm down. You’ll lose out if you go over there now,” Chloe said.
Hearing Chloe’s words and looking at Harry’s frosty face, Jessica slowly stopped, but her expression was ugly.
“Harry, what’s the point of hitting a woman? Fight me if you have the guts.”
Then Freddy stepped forward and spoke, his face full of disdain.
Even though he knew he couldn’t beat Freddy, Harry met his gaze without flinching.
“Really? Since you’re so good at fighting, let’s have a fight.”
Daniel joined Harry, his eyes fixed on Freddy.
The two sides just stared at each other, neither backing down.
“Um… aren’t we here to discuss Ms. Ellie’s birthday today? Why don’t you both take a step back, or we won’t have time?”
At this moment, a girl said timidly. She was the class monitor, Yao Yue.
Freddy snorted at Harry, then turned to his classmates. “There’s no need to discuss it. Since it’s Ms. Ellie’s birthday, let’s go to the Neil Hotel.”
Neil Hotel?!
When the students in the class heard Freddy’s words, they were first shocked, then their faces were filled with hesitation.
One had to know that Neil Hotel was one of the top 10 hotels in Litho City. It cost seven to eight thousand yuan to enter. There were so many of them in the class, so it would cost at least forty to fifty thousand yuan. Even if everyone shared the cost, it would cost a thousand yuan. Many of the people in the class were from ordinary families. A thousand yuan was their monthly living expenses. They could not fork out so much money.
“Freddy, wouldn’t it be too expensive to go to the Neil Hotel? The students are all—”
“Don’t worry, I’ll pay the expenses alone this time. Just treat it as inviting the students to a gathering.”
The squad leader, Yao Yue, was interrupted by Freddy.
And when his classmates heard him, they all looked shocked. Freddy was actually going to treat them to a meal at the Neil Hotel.
“Oh yeah! Long live Freddy!”
The crowd, who had regained their senses, immediately began to cheer loudly. None of them had ever been to the Neil Hotel. They were actually going to see it tonight.
Seeing this, Chloe proudly took Freddy’s hand and gave Harry a smug look, as if to say, See? This is a man worthy of me, Chloe, not a poor bastard like you.
Seeing this, Harry chuckled disdainfully. Wasn’t it just spending tens of thousands on a treat? What was there to be proud of?
Freddy, who was enjoying the compliments, turned to Harry when he heard his laughter. “Harry, what are you laughing at?”
Although Freddy’s words were not spoken loudly, everyone present heard him. They all looked at Harry, wanting to hear his explanation.
Harry felt everyone’s gaze on him and said indifferently, “I can laugh if I want to. It’s none of your business.”
“I know. You saw that Freddy is giving the dinner treat and thought you could also go and see for yourself, didn’t you?”
Jessica jumped out at this moment. She had been unhappy with Harry for slapping her just now. She would never let go of the opportunity to mock Harry.
When everyone heard Jessica’s words, they nodded to themselves. What she said was most reasonable.
“If that’s the case, you might be disappointed. I can treat the other students, but not you and Daniel. If you want to go, you have to pay for it yourself,” Freddy said with a smile, but it was a sinister one.
You two poor bastards. Who told you to insult me just now? Even if I threw away money, I won’t let the two of you use it.
“It’s just a treat, isn’t it? What’s there to be boastful about? We’ll pay for our own meal. We don’t need your money,” Harry said flatly.
Everyone was a little surprised to hear Harry’s words. Harry had never participated in ordinary class gatherings in the past, but today, he actually wanted to pay to attend it.
“Harry, everyone knows you’re poor. Why are you pretending if you don’t have the money? If you have the guts, come and pay today. It’s simply hilarious,” Jessica said disdainfully.
“That works too.”
Harry thought for a moment and agreed.
In the past, he wouldn’t have dared to agree. It was different now. He had money. Tens of thousands of yuan was nothing to him.
But Harry’s words sounded like a bomb in everyone’s ears.
