I looked back and saw a man and a woman standing in front of me with great curiosity in their eyes.
The woman said in surprise, "It's really Jayden Hunter."
I seemed to have some impression. In high school, these two persons belonged to our class, Samuel Smith and Elizabeth Jordan.
I vaguely remembered that Elizabeth once pursued me. Back then, I was quite famous at school. I got good grades and looked good. Many girls wrote love letters to me. Elizabeth is one of them. Her pursuit was quite crazy. She often flattered me and brought me breakfast. However, even though I was moved at the time, Emelia was already in my heart, so I refused all the pursuits of others.
Samuel was the bully in the class. I didn't expect that after many years, he still failed to shake off his ruffian temperament. He stood in front of me in a rascally way and looked domineering.
Since they were old friends, I naturally couldn't pretend to be cold, so I said hello to them with a smile, "Samuel, Elizabeth?"
Samuel smiled and said, "Jayden, I didn't expect to see you here. What have you been doing in the past five years?"
I said blandly, "I went to work outside, and I just came back these days."
Although I didn't have much friendship with them, I also upheld the respect, because Elizabeth and Emelia's relationship was pretty good, I didn't know if they had been in contact recently.
Samuel glanced at me contemptuously and said with a smile to Elizabeth, "I remember you even pursued him back then?"
Elizabeth waved his hand awkwardly, "I used to be ignorant."
Did that mean she was sensible now and doesn't look up to me?
My mood was a little complicated. It seemed that these two persons were not easy to deal with. Did they deliberately come to me for trouble?
It was no wonder that although I was often bullied back then, everyone knew I had a sister who was the campus belle. She often protected me, so I was inevitably envied by others. Samuel was one of them. When Franklin Young bullied me back then, Samuel often helped secretly.
However, after so many years, I had already been relieved of the past, and I didn't plan to care about it, otherwise I wouldn't be so polite.
Samuel glanced at the sales staff next to me and asked, "Are you here to apply for a security guard?"
The sales staff couldn't stand Samuel and Elizabeth's arrogant expression. She stepped forward and wanted to speak for me, but was interrupted by me firstly, "I came to see the house."
Elizabeth said with a gloomy expression, "Jayden, we haven't seen each other for so many years, why have you learned to lie? Do you know the housing prices here?"
Samuel also said, "Yeah, people have to be down-to-earth, don't talk nonsense, be careful of being exposed, how embarrassing you are in front of your old classmates?"
I reluctantly said, "Well, I'm here to apply for a security guard. It is said that the salary is more than 740 dollars a month."
Samuel patted me on the shoulder and said earnestly, "An uneducated person like you can only be a security guard. Villa No. 5 was bought by me. After a few days of decoration, I will host a dinner in the villa. Most of the guests are old classmates and some are upper class people in D City. Will you come to see the elephant?"
I nodded with a smile, "Yes!"
Samuel glanced at me disdainfully and said, "Well, I will ask Elizabeth to send a message to Emelia in a few days. You must come."
Then he left with Elizabeth arrogantly.
After they left, the girl beside me said to me angrily, "Mr. Hunter, why don't you tell them the actual situation? Villa No. 5 is the cheapest in Globle Group and it cannot be compared with your Villa No. 1." Then, she covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Do you want to pretend to be fragile?"
I smiled bitterly and shook my head, "No, when old classmates meet, there is no need to compare each other."
No matter if I said that I bought Villa No. 1, they believed it or not, in my opinion, comparison was the least necessary. It was important to live your own life well without caring about other people's opinions. I didn't want to show off and disdained to show off.
After returning to the sales office and signing the purchase contract, the staff drove me home.
I changed my clothes and rode an electric bike to the school. After waiting for a while at the door, I saw Emelia's beautiful figure.
"Emelia!" I waved.
However, beside Emelia, there was another woman standing. When I saw her face clearly, my face immediately became gloomy.
Nora!
The two came to me. I got off the electric bike, pulled Nora aside and said coldly, "Why are you with Emelia?"
Jiang Yun said with a dazed look, "What's wrong? Can't we become friends?"
Emelia waited next to me. I couldn't get angry in front of her, so I held back my anger and whispered, "Didn't you hurt me enough?"
Nora was stunned, confused and helpless, "I hurt you? What have I done to you? "
With a cold smile, I rolled up my sleeves. My arms were beaten black and blue. I said seriously to her, "Did you see it? Hector did it!"
Nora grabbed my arms, her eyes turned red in an instant. She gritted her teeth and said, "This damn Hector, how could he be so cruel?"
I shook her hand away and said coldly, "If you don't want me to be beaten again, don't show up in front of me."
Nora bowed her head aggrievedly, bitted her red lips and said, "I'm sorry... I just, I just think Emelia was very pitiful without friends, so I want to be friends with her."
I took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't think it is necessary. In the future, don't bother me anymore. Your behavior really makes me feel sick."
Nora's body trembled and she asked in a trembling voice, "You... what did you say?"
I sneered, "I said you made me feel sick, do you hear it? Just get out of here!"
In an instant, Nora's tears burst into her eyes. She was very aggrieved and stood at a loss. I ignored her and turned back to Emelia. Emelia frowned and asked me, "Jayden, what did you say to Nora?"
I smiled, "Nothing, let's go!"
Emelia hesitated and said to me sternly, "Although I don't know what you said, you really make her sad!"
After saying this, Emelia walked to Nora. Her voice was low. I didn't know what she was saying.
I didn't go there. I lit a cigarette and smoked quietly. I was full of emotions in the smoke.
I knew that Nora was not malicious, but I really didn't want to be shattered by her the quiet life, so, for me and Emelia, she could only be wronged.
I also knew it is selfish, but I can't help it! I wouldn't let Hector hit me again, right?
After smoking a cigarette, Emelia finished talking. I saw Nora glaring at me fiercely and turned away angrily.
Emelia also returned to me and got on the electric bike. She took a melancholy look at me, did not say anything to me. I was also lazy to explain and rode home.
