Chapter 16 You Are My Person
Even a fool could understand the hidden meaning of Wendy's words.
Hearing her words, Abby frowned. Obviously, she disliked her words very much. She immediately retorted, "Wendy, if I'm really phony, then you're definitely a bitch."
"You..."
Wendy was angry, but she quickly calmed down and said, "Abby, don't be arrogant. Cinderella becomes a Princess. Don't think about it. I even robbed you of your boyfriend, let alone the rich man who is with you. That's out of your league."
When she said this, Wendy looked even prouder.
Abby was speechless at her innate superiority.
"Wendy, you are quite stupid. As for your boyfriend, don't show off. I don't like him, okay? And I said break up first."
"What do you mean by that?"
Hearing Abby's counterattack, Wendy's mood suddenly darkened.
"That's the literal meaning. You'll know when you ask your boyfriend. When did I ever have a relationship with him? It was he who wooed me, and he was also the one I refused. Later, he spread rumors that I was abandoned by him. He was so shameless, and you were the only one who treated him as a treasure."
Speaking of this, Abby also gave Wendy a sneer.
Wendy's mood darkened on the spot. She turned to her boyfriend and asked, "Is what she said true?"
"Wendy, how can you believe what she said? How can I do that? She is just trying to sow discord between us. She is jealous of you."
The phoenix man glared at Abby indignantly, trying his best to defend himself.
Wendy looked at him suspiciously, as if she was considering whether his words were true or not.
"Wendy, you must believe me. I love you so much. Don't ruin our relationship because of Abby. This woman is so uneducated. She can tell all kinds of lies. Don't believe her."
The phoenix man continued to persuade her at the intersection, but Wendy was not a fool. She kept suspicious. Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "All right. I'll talk to you when we get back." But Abby couldn't just let it go.
When she heard the phoenix man say that she was uneducated, her mood suddenly darkened. "Say what you just said again?"
"What's wrong with saying that you were uneducated? Is he wrong?"
Wendy responded. She seemed to like to see Abby's unhappy look very much. She couldn't help raising her voice a few times. "Everyone in the school knows that you are an orphan. You are a low-born woman, and you have to make a living by work and scholarship. I think you have hooked up with many men for money, haven't you?"
"Shut up!"
Abby's mood darkened.
It was rare for Wendy to have a chance to sneer at Abby. She really wanted to have more embarrassing moments. How could she let her go?
"Well, you feel awkward. It seems that I'm right. No wonder you can wear the latest dress of Dior. You must have sex with people many times, right?" Wendy shook her head, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became increasingly mean.
Many guests around had been attracted by the noise here. They all heard Wendy's words.
Among the guests present, some of them were classmates of the school. Abby found that there was something strange when they looked at her.
Just as Abby was feeling a little embarrassed, a low and penetrating male voice came from the crowd.
"As for beautiful Abby, there are plenty of men lining up to buy her expensive dresses. But for you, even if you take the initiative, I don't think there will be anyone who wants to make love with you." Everyone looked in the direction of the voice. The man came like a king.
He wore a tailored black suit, which set off his temperament. His domineering and noble temperament could not be ignored.
The man's arrival attracted everyone's attention.
His face was cold and his words were harsh, which made Wendy's face look terrible.
Abby was a little surprised.
She did not expect Richard to speak up for her. She did not recover for a moment.
Richard quickly walked to Abby's side. He stretched out his long arm and easily wrapped it around her waist. He looked down at her and said, "Abby, are you a fool? Don't you know how to fight back when you're mocked by such trash?"
Abby was speechless.
Abby was surprised.
This man was so cruel!
His words scolded Wendy and also scolded her.
However, Abby discovered that Richard's appearance was really useful. The contemptuous gaze that was originally surrounding her had already disappeared. Instead, it turned out to be the surprised gazes of everyone.
Richard was the biggest shot in the banquet tonight!
Even if Abby could really have a relationship with him, it would be a blessing.
In that instant, everyone's thoughts had changed, but... If Abby knew, she would probably be stunned.
Seeing that Abby did not say a word, Richard turned his eyes and glanced at Wendy and her boyfriend. He said with disgust, "Staying alive will only dirty the eyes of others."
As soon as he finished speaking, Richard ignored angry Wendy and the phoenix man. Without saying a word, he held Abby in his arms and pushed everyone away. Then, he turned around and left the banquet hall.
It was only at this moment that Abby realized that she had gained some more understanding of Richard.
This man showed no mercy to his opponent.
No matter who he or she was, he regarded as the same.
He was so cold, overbearing, and resolute!
But... he was indescribably handsome!
"Thank you for helping me out just now."
After leaving the banquet, Abby said gratefully to Richard, who was sitting in the driver's seat.
"If you thank me, why don't you spend more time training to fight back? Remember, you're my person. Being bullied is equivalent to losing my face."
Richard did not even look at Abby. He looked straight ahead and his words were exceptionally serious.
She was the only one who could be teased by him. It was impossible for others to bully her.
Richard was such a cold and domineering man.
Abby was a little confused.
Although his original intention was to prevent her from being bullied, why did it sound so strange?
What do you mean by "you're my person"?
"Okay, I see. I'll learn from you how to be sharp-tongued from now on..."
"Say it again!"
Richard suddenly darkened. The car that had already turned on the cold air seemed to have become colder.
Abby was so scared that her neck shrank. She quickly laughed and said, "It's nothing. You heard it wrong."
Then, she did not dare say another word, for fear of saying something wrong. If Richard was not happy, he must treat her fiercely.IIIIIIIIIII
