Chapter 3 A Number From Eight Years Ago

“Heather, where are you headed? I can give you a ride,” Walt offered, his lustful gaze lingering on Heather’s luscious body.

He went to the same university as Heather and Alex.

Back then, Heather was the prettiest girl on campus. Walt pursued her for four years, but Alex won her heart in the end.

He was furious to learn that Heather ended up marrying Alex, who had nothing under his name.

For the past few years, he had been harboring a grudge and had finally begun planning his revenge.

“Mr. Wallace!”

“Mr. Wallace!”

Carmen and Lucas started sucking up to him eagerly.

However, Heather said coldly, “Stop putting on an act, Walt. Don’t worry. I’ll come to you tomorrow. I hope you’ll keep your word when the time comes.”

Walt attempted to suppress his rage in the face of Heather’s cold demeanor. He reached out and grasped her hand, looking her directly in the eye. “Heather, it’s been so long. Can’t you see how much I still care for you?”

Shocked, Heather tried to jerk her hand away, but Walt refused to relinquish his hold on her.

Alex happened to witness this when he walked over to them. Fury blazed in his eyes as he demanded, “Let go of her, you filthy animal!”

Walt turned over his shoulder to see Alex. A mocking glint appeared in his eyes as he remarked, “Oh, isn’t this our smart class rep? Why do you look like a beggar?”

“I said, let her go!” Alex warned. He was on the verge of losing control.
