Chapter 3 I Must Teach Him A Lesson
In all the books she had read, the heroine who time traveled would meet all the handsome men, and they would all fall in love with her. They would be gorgeous and sweet as they all tried to sweep her off her feet. But what kinds of people did she meet?
The impassive Alexander.
The unmanly Justin.
The aloof Mike.
The cold Lucas.
And the obscene Mr. He.
Her luck must've been the worst of them all! Lucy opened her mouth and was about to defend her friend when Justin turned his head and waved his hand. "Prepare me a glass of cold water." Justin's eyes flashed in such a cunning way. Although he was still smiling, there was a sense of mischievousness lying underneath his gaze.
He was far more beautiful than women. In fact, if Kate didn't know any better, she would've thought that he was actually a woman.
Seeing him approach Kate, Lucy quickly stepped in his way. She stretched out her hands to stop him. "How can you do this?" she snapped.
"What are you talking about? Can't you see I'm helping her?" Justin pushed Lucy away. He didn't even bother looking at her as he stared curiously at the woman lying on the ground. Her face was indeed pale, but he still wasn't convinced. The corners of his lips inched upwards.
His face looked like spring blooming into life. He had a look that could turn everyone's frown into a smile. No one could hate that face.
"You!" Unwilling to give up, Lucy saw that he was already lifting his glass. She rushed forward. As a result, the cold water fell on top of her head. Kate was expecting that the icy water would wash her face, but she didn't get wet. She assumed that Lucy must've sacrificed herself.
Kate gritted her teeth, feeling a sharp pain in her internal organs.
At this point, she had to get better. She wasn't going to let Lucy take all his anger.
She hurriedly pinched the acupuncture points located in the palm of her hand. Soon, she opened her eyes slowly. She pressed her hand on the cold floor, intending to stand up. "Help... Help me... I... I want to get up," she whispered helplessly. Soon enough, everyone turned from Lucy to Kate. Kate had been working as a coroner for several years, so she knew her acupuncture points well enough. She had actually planned this entire trick - pretending to faint and escaping while she was being taken to the hospital. What she didn't expect was for someone to sabotage everything!
She was immediately held up. Soon enough, she was met with Justin's glare. He was holding an empty glass in one hand, and his eyes flashed at the sight of her.
Kate couldn't help but gaze at his charming smile. There was really no kidding that the man was even more handsome up close. Seeing his effect on her, she quickly avoided his gaze. The guy was definitely not easy to deal with.
Alexander waved his hand. Soon, the waiter provided Kate a chair.
Her face was still pale from the incident.
From a distant, she could still feel someone staring at her. She felt a burst of coldness rushing through her body. When she raised her head, she was met with the most chilling gaze she had ever witnessed. She felt the entire room drop a few degrees as she turned away.
'Mike?
Was he the one who slept with me?' she thought.
There was a sense of sharpness in his face that made her shrink. At last, she frowned, trying her best to restrain herself. It was said that Mike's background was exceptionally powerful, but no one truly knew what he was capable of. All they knew was that he was deadly rich.
He had never been mentioned on the news, so the information about him was incredibly limited. He just played some football in his spare time. The football team he participated in was for high-caliber players. Mike, Alexander, Justin, and Lucas were all members of that team. Given that they were really good, they were allowed to play in the major clubs.
Besides, Alexander was the one who owned that team.
Being a cheerleader for such a long time, the other Kate knew about these from the other girls she had worked with.
It seemed that Mike and Justin were the main suspects.
At this time, Lucas craned his head to see what was happening before him. When he glanced at Kate, the corners of his lips inched upwards. Without another word, he decided to lower his head and focus on the documents he was holding, as if he was leafing through some magazine.
Sitting on the chair, Kate trembled on purpose as she gazed up at the man in front of her. "Is this the foreigner? Miss, what are you doing?' She raised her finger to point at Justin weakly.
She had to teach him a lesson.
Everyone burst into laughter.
The once freezing hall was filled with chatter and outrage.
'How dare she say that Justin was a woman?'
'Doesn't she know who he is?'
'She's in trouble. That's for sure.'
At her words, Justin's expression changed almost immediately. His beautiful eyes widened in an instant. He stared at the weak body before him, as if he was expecting something. "Where should I be checked?" Kate blinked her eyes pitifully.
"Leg!" Justin gritted his teeth.
"What?" She scrambled back, grabbing Lucy's arm with one hand. "I'm afraid, Lucy. This woman looks so fierce."
'Oh my God.' Lucy had to restrain herself from laughing at loud.
With a faint smile on his thin lips, Mike couldn't help but glance at Kate from the other end of the room. No one could tell what he was thinking, but it was obvious that he was interested with what was happening.
Justin's face darkened.
"You! Get out of here right now!" Justin pointed at Lucy who was about to reach for Kate. "Security guard!" he shouted.
Without waiting for Lucy's response, several armed security guards marched forward. "This way please, Miss." They looked as if they were going to beat her if she didn't leave.
"Okay, but I..." "Check me now!" Kate had no intentions to drag her friend down with her.
She gritted her teeth. Right now, she had no other choice but to unfasten her trousers. Her wound was very close to her private parts. Very close...
'I will kill that bastard!' She gritted her teeth.
Without another word, Kate grazed across the buttons of her belt. Her fingers were trembling at the touch.
All the girls in the hall held their breath as they stared at the woman who had just insulted Justin. It seemed that she was going to lose her face in public. There were some girls who scoffed at the sight of her. Others laughed at the sight.
There were also some who gazed at her in disdain.
"How dare she take off her pants in public?" some of them whispered to one another. "She even asks Justin to check her legs!"
One of them scoffed. "Is she really that desperate to climb into a rich man's bed?"
"Isn't there an examination room?"
"I remembered that she has a fiance," one of them whispered. "Why does she want to seduce another man?"
Justin gaped at the sight. His eyes widened as he stared at her. A smile began to bloom in his lips.
Mike's eyes were as deep as the night. The smile on his face finally faltered, and he pursed his lips.
Soon, she had already unzipped her pants.
The hall had turned insufferably quiet.
All the cheerleaders dropped their jaw at the sight. They stared in disbelief.
Kate felt as if she could already drop dead from the embarrassment. She wouldn't have done this if the man hadn't pushed her to reveal herself. His scheme was a trap. He was a jerk! However, she wasn't going to be fooled any longer. Once she found who he was, she would smash him into pieces. Punch him into his coffin!☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
