Sadie had no intention to listen to her subtext, so she didn’t turn her head.
Paige was pissed by her attitude. She couldn’t help herself grabbing her arm, “Sadie Chambers, you shameless bitch!”
Daisy sensed the tension and rushed to take Paige’s hand away from Sadie. She warned, “Show some respect, this is a public place!”
“You are nobody. Public place so what? I don’t get to judge what she has done?” Paige kept her chin up as a sign of arrogance. She sneered, “What a cunt!”
Sadie was suffering from a headache, hearing out her aggressive words, she only glanced at her emotionlessly, “Watch your mouth, or one day you’ll regret it!”
Finishing her statement, she took Daisy’s hand and walked out of the classroom, leaving Paige there being angry.
She had had a cold for a few days, but why she still felt dizzy. The pain was strong, especially in the temple.
“Stop there right now, Chambers …” Paige screamed. Meanwhile, she got a phone call. She was so flattered that she saw Otto’s number. She quickly ho the green button, “Otto …”
“I assume you’ve got off class?” Otto’s voice suggested he was smiling, and he sounded so gentle, “Are you free at noon? Let’s have lunch together.”
“If you buy me lunch, of course I have time.” Paige got so excited.
Clearly he had ditched Sadie. She was doubtful when she heard the rumor this morning, so she was surprised that Otto asked her out.
On the other end of the phone, Otto took a look at his watch. He told her the address, and reminded her nicely, “You don’t have to rush. It’ll take me half an hour to get there from the company.”
Paige’s extremely happy voice came over. She even cheered in a really low voice.
Otto’s smile faded after he hung up the phone. He stood up, head towards the French window and looked afar with his narrowing eyes.
After he got back the 10 million, he got a call from his father, warning him no to interact with Sadie anymore. His father added that he couldn’t and shouldn’t mess with her.
Later he got a break-up message from Sadie. He tried to call her, but she either refused to talk or turned off her phone.
He was kinda shocked that she would even bring it up.
After all, an ugly girl like her should feel lucky that some guy wanted her. But he thought of the call from his dad, he knew things weren’t that easy.
Why he couldn’t nor shouldn’t mess with her, for Sadie was just an Orphan.
He couldn’t figure it out, so he had no choice but to ask his dad.
His dad threw some materials involving him embezzling public funds. He scolded, “If they have a way to get this, they definitely fuck YH Group up.”
Until that moment, Otto realized the pair of locks Sadie had was related to that person.
He pretended to be a nice guy in front of Sadie just to get those locks. He didn’t expect that they were lost.
He was about to quit, then Libby told him the locks may be in the hand of that money-mad dean.
The dean was sick recently, so he continued his plan.
In a cruel twist of fate, he intended to coax her into searching for the locks when he gave her the presents that he bought from overseas. Well, she broke up with him first.
In a determined way.
Otto squeezed between his eyebrows and turned around. He dialed his assistant and asked her in.
The PA thought he was bothering by what to eat, so she asked the moment she stepped in the office, “Mr. Newman, do you prefer takeout or dine out today?”
