Lifelong Companion

Chapter 13 Return to School

Embarrassed, Melissa pulled her fine bangs up and put them behind her ears. Then she begged

Howard in a low voice, "Well, can you just stop here? I'll walk the rest of the way by myself."

Without saying a word, Howard still kept driving smoothly, as if he took Melissa as air.

The school entrance was just around the corner. Seeing this, Melissa became anxious. She tightly

grabbed the back shoulder of Howard and said uneasily, "Eh... I don't know your name, but we would

arrive at our school soon if you kept driving. I promise I won't run away. But can you just leave me here

and let me come in on my own? You can pull over and follow me if you still worry about me. "

She didn't want anyone to know her humble identity.

Howard frowned with disgust and leaned forward a little. Then he reached out his hands and said,

"Miss Melissa, please don't make things difficult for me. I'm just following the order."

A trace of pain appeared in her eyes. Melissa said “Hum” and drew back her hand. Even a driver

looked down on her?

She forced a smile, which was extremely grieving.

The car stopped slowly at the gate of the school. In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on it.

Many people even craned their heads, trying to see which rich person be in the car so that they could

go to butter up this person.

Melissa's face was covered with embarrassment. After hesitating for a while, she finally reluctantly got

out of the car when she saw the sullen, handsome face of Howard.

When she appeared, many people presented a surprised expression.

Lowering her head, Melissa said "Thank you" to Howard in a hurry and left, as if it was a very

embarrassing thing.

A trace of darkness flashed through Howard's eyes. He thought for a while and changed the direction

of the car and then drove away.

In the classroom, Melissa was so nervous that she didn't even dare to breathe. The mockery and

arguments of the people around her seemed to have been amplified several hundred times, and they

were lingering in her heart. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"I say, how does she have the face to come back to our school?"

"What are you talking about? I don't remember this woman..."

"I tell you, she betrayed herself to a man for money. Do you know who he is? It's Aaron! Oh my God! It

never occurred to me that a pure and innocent woman like her would have done such a thing! "

As they talked, their tone of contempt became more obvious. With a pale face, Melissa's head lowed,

and she tried to forget these people's words, but her brain deliberately went against her. The words

were running through her mind in an infinite loop.

When Melissa was caught in a dilemma, a woman suddenly walked up from behind, reached out her

hand and directly grabbed the back of Melissa's head. She sneered, "I know more than you do. You

know what? I heard that she went to steal the purse of Aaron's girlfriend to hook up Aaron!"

Everyone was shocked by her words.

Suffering great pain, Melissa let out a low hum, but dared not speak anything.

What they said was the truth. How could she explain it?

Knowing who has come, Melissa had no choice but to bite her lower lip and choose to be silent. But her

silence meant acquiescence in the eyes of others.

The woman who was grabbing Melissa's hair looked sullen. Then she increased her strength and threw

Melissa's head to the ground. Her seven centimeter high-heeled shoes trampled on Melissa. The

piercing pain spread from Melissa's back to her whole body in an instant.

As Sunny stepped on her high heels, she exclaimed, "shame on you! I don't even know how humiliated

I am because of you!"

How could a woman like Melissa, born with such a low status, be with a rich man? While as Melissa’s

sister, she became a laughing stock of everyone.

Her injured back tensed instantly. The struggle became violent and Melissa twisted her body hard as

she said, "let go of me! You hurt me!"

But Sunny didn't stop. Instead, she waved her hand and called over several strange women dressed in

different ways. Then they started kicking and punching Melissa. Their each blow was with a whiff of

harsh wind.

Melissa curled up and crouched at the table, having no chance to resist.

Now Melissa's whole world was like an endless black hole. She might not be able to hold on as long as

she stayed there for another second.

But at this time, Melissa's phone rang.

She came to her sense a little more clearly. She fumbled around and finally found her small phone in

the pocket. When others were confused, she ran to a corner and glanced at the strange number.

Without thinking, Melissa answered the phone directly.

"Melissa, get out of the school now!"

"Melissa, you bitch, don't run away if you have the power!"

The voice of Aaron and Sunny echoed in Melissa's ears. Before Melissa was surprised at the other end

of the phone, she was dragged again. With a loud bang, the small and crude cellphone fell to the

ground, smashing in an instant.

Standing outside the school door, Aaron's face changed slightly as if he had expected something. He

strode into the school and was close to the guard. However, the guard froze when he met Aaron's

eyes. He even didn't dare to take a deep breath.

But Aaron suddenly stopped. He turned around, grabbed a man's arm and asked the classroom which

Melissa was in. To his surprise, the man happened to be one of Melissa's classmates. Forced by

Aaron, he had no choice but to show the way for Aaron.

Before he entered the classroom, he could hear the shouts of several women mingled with their insults

to Melissa from time to time.

Sunny was so jealous that she forced Melissa to the corner. Then she kicked Melissa with her sharp

high heels and ridiculed, "Melissa, where is your allure? Why, would you just pose in front of a man?

You are disgusting! Why can a lowly woman like you get much love from a man? What makes you think

you have the right to be around Aaron?"

The crowd around Melissa burst into laughter. They didn't sympathize with her, nor stepped forward to

help her. Some even took out their phones to shoot this embarrassing scene of Melissa.

Sunny raised her hand and slapped on Melissa's face heavily. She became more arrogant and said to

Melissa, "Get down on your knees and apologize to me! How could I be laughed at if it were not for

you? Melissa, say you are a bitch loudly!"
