Female Novel
Chapter 90
Casper took his wallet out from his pocket and it was bulging with cash.
Grabbing the wad of cash, he threw them onto the table. “There must be at least five thousand here.You can have it and she will return you the slap.”
Jessica’s expression drastically changed. Looking at Casper, she replied, “Do you know who I am? Myfamily owns the Taylor Group. How dare you let that poor girl hit me?”
Ignoring Jessica, Casper pulled Amelia to his side and gently pushed her forward. He urged her,“Amelia, slap her back as hard as you can.”
“How dare you!”
Not wanting to show any weakness, Jessica sprang up from the seat and glared at Amelia.
It would be utterly humiliating for her if she ended up being slapped.
When Amelia glanced at Jessica, she recoiled in fear the moment their eyes met.
Thrusting her chin forward, Jessica couldn’t help but sneer when she saw Amelia’s reaction. “Look athow cowardly she is. She even needs you to stand up for her.”
Amelia’s eyes flashed with animosity. She’s the one who has been bullying me for no reason from thevery first day of school. I have had enough of being harassed and mocked by them.
Suddenly, Amelia raised a hand and a cracking slap was heard, silencing the entire class.
Jessica’s expression was filled with disbelief. How dare that coward hit me?
“F*ck!” Swearing, Jessica spitted out the gum she was chewing and lunged at Amelia.
When she saw Jessica’s fist about to land on her, Amelia closed her eyes and braced herself for theimpact.
Reaching out and grabbing Jessica’s wrist, Casper shoved her back onto the ground.
At that moment, Jessica’s lackeys quickly helped her up.
Casper looked down at her and demanded, “How dare you attempt to hit her?”
“I don’t need your permission to hit that piece of trash.” Jessica glared fiercely at Casper. “Do you knowwho I am? By standing up for her today, I will make sure you are ruined tomorrow!”
Having heard Jessica’s threats, Amelia began to feel nervous.
What has gotten into me just now? Why did I dare hit her?
Grabbing Casper’s arm in panic, Amelia leaned in and whispered, “Casper, why don’t I apologize toher. Poor students like us don’t stand a chance against the powerful Taylor Group.”
Casper patted the back of her hand to comfort her. “Don’t worry. Since you see me as your friend, I willdefinitely keep you safe.”
Moreover, the Taylor family wasn’t even among the top richest families in Horington.
“The Taylors are nothing but a small family. How dare you act with such impudence?” Casper couldn’thelp but shake his head.
Jessica was suddenly confused. Does Casper come from a powerful family?
However, no one wealthy dresses as shabbily as he does.
After a brief hesitation, Jessica decided to back down.
She felt it was better to act prudently until she knew who Casper truly was.
With a wave of her hand, Jessica left with her two lackeys.
When the other classmates saw that the drama had ended, they too dispersed quickly.
This is unbelievable. Who is that guy?
Even Jessica of the Taylor family is scared of him. Hence, he isn’t someone to be trifled with.
After everyone had left, Amelia patted her chest and heaved a sigh of relief.
“Luckily, it didn’t escalate into a fight,” she muttered. Suddenly, something occurred to her. “Are… areyou actually rich?”
“Erm, not really. My family does have some assets, but we live frugally.” Casper scratched his headwith a smile. Since she was now his friend, there wasn’t any need to hide his identity on purpose.
As for the rest, she would have to find out herself.
Overjoyed, Amelia smiled in return. Looking at the stack of cash on the table, she picked them up andhanded them to Casper. “What luck! I slapped her in return, but she didn’t take the money.”
When he saw how adorable her expression was, Casper couldn’t help but stroke her head. “You shouldkeep the money.”
“No… I can’t. I won’t accept it.” She stuffed the cash back into Casper’s arms as if it was a hot potatothat was burning her hands.
You can’t give away so much money just like that.novelbin
Amelia disapproved of Casper’s gesture. In fact, she was even angry over it. “Your parents workedhard for the money while you are also a frugal person. Hence, it’s not right to just give it away.Furthermore, I am your friend. So, if you really take me as one, then stop giving me the money.”
Casper wasn’t able to convince Amelia given how stubborn she was. Hence, he had no choice but tokeep the money.
This was the first time he had failed to give money away.
Despite the fact that Amelia was poor, she didn’t allow her poverty to bend her principles.
Sighing in his heart, Casper smiled back at her. “Since you insist on not accepting it, let me treat youlunch instead. You cannot reject me because I am your friend. If you feel guilty about it, you are free tobuy me lunch some other time.”
After a slight hesitation, Amelia finally nodded.
Nevertheless, she was touched by how much Casper had done for her. However, when she looked atwhat she was wearing, she decided to bury that feeling in the depths of her heart.
Casper tousled her hair with a smile. Suddenly, something occurred to him and he towed Amelia backoutside.
“Wh-what is it?”
Amelia was stunned to see Casper’s serious expression.
While walking, Casper explained, “In our rush to come here, I left my bike and our lunch on the field. AsI have used the bike for a few years now, I can’t afford to leave it like that.”
In truth, Casper’s bike was so old that no one wanted to take it in. That was the real reason he didn’tsell it.
However, he didn’t plan to share that fact with Amelia. After all, he still felt sentimental about his bike.
The moment he sighted his bike at the field, Casper felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off him.
