“I’m outraged! Ordinary Man! I want to go and kill myself! What should I do?”
Cassandra said so.
Actually, Gerald became angry when he saw Cassandra’s name.
“If you don’t want to live on, just go and die! What more can you do?”
Gerald made a swift reply.
“Oh! You’re so annoying! I just want to tell you some of the things which upset me.”
Gerald was tongue-tied.
He did use quite a vicious tone.
But how could Cassandra use such a sweet tone on him, behaving like a spoilt child.
Gerald did not know how to reply to his message.
“Humph! I always care about you, but you never care about me. I’m so sad!
“But I still want to tell you about it. You know what, Ordinary Man. I could only pour out my feelings and speak freely with you.
“Something happened today. Do you know about the fundraising campaign for my department? Just because of one pathetic poor b*stard from my class, the campaign was ruined. Layla now has no money to pay for her younger sister’s medical fee. What’s more important is that I was robbed of the chance to gain the award of the best teacher just because of him!”
“I’ve donated money for Layla. I donated seventy thousand dollars to her! And regarding that teacher award, it serves you right!”
Gerald scolded her directly, disregarding her feelings.
“How annoying! Why did I feel that you like to tease me? Humph!
“Oh gosh!”
Gerald became utterly speechless now.
He wondered if others felt quite happy even though they were scolded by him just because he had become rich now.
It might be so.
At that time, Felicity sent a message to Gerald too. “Are you there? Ordinary Man?”
Gerald had had enough of those women.
“Get lost! I’m unavailable!” Gerald scolded.
