Chapter 5

Author: Dessert Time
While everyone's attention was focused on Mandy and Lenard, I seized the opportunity to lunge forward and snatch my phone from the floor.

A second later, Lenard's grunts and Sarah's moans were blaring through the room. The sound of skin on skin and the filthy, vulgar words they said to each other dropped like a bomb.

Immediately, everyone crowded closer to get a better look at the video. Through the gap in the door, they could only vaguely see the figures, but there was no denying that those

    Sarah managed to squeeze out a smile, though it looked more like a grimace. "I'll talk to Lenard and tell him to stop. He'll listen to me."Upon hearing that, I snorted. "He was arrested today, so you'll have to visit him at the police station."With a curse, Sarah stormed off.A few days later, the video actually stopped trending.After having Marcus look into it, I learned that Sarah had spent several million dollars to have it removed from the trending list.Although she was a CEO, her yearly income was only a few million; combined with her lavish spending habits, her company essentially had no working capital left. She had likely spent every cent of her savings on that one move. I was in a great mood, but the next day, she came to me with a million dollars as an apology. This was the first time she had ever given me money in all our years together, and that it happened under these circumstances was deeply ironic. Naturally, I didn't refuse money that dropped right into my

    Mandy's eyes grew brighter the more she listened to Sarah and Lenard, as though she were finally seeing the light. Or, more likely, she simply couldn't accept reality and had chosen to bury her head in the sand. She rushed toward Lenard and carefully helped him to his feet, her eyes filled with heartache at his predicament."Lenny, it's my fault for misunderstanding you. I shouldn't have doubted you."The others were quick to side with them as well, especially after my insults earlier. They glared at me; if looks could kill, I would've died a hundred times over by now. Sarah, realizing that she now had the upper hand, ordered her bodyguards to restrain me again.I cursed under my breath. But at that exact moment, the door to the private room burst open. The police had arrived.As it turned out, my assistant, Marcus Blunt, had called them. He hastened to my side, looking concerned. "Mr. Goodwill! My apologies for being late, sir. I've failed you as your assistant."Sarah shot

    While everyone's attention was focused on Mandy and Lenard, I seized the opportunity to lunge forward and snatch my phone from the floor.A second later, Lenard's grunts and Sarah's moans were blaring through the room. The sound of skin on skin and the filthy, vulgar words they said to each other dropped like a bomb. Immediately, everyone crowded closer to get a better look at the video. Through the gap in the door, they could only vaguely see the figures, but there was no denying that those voices belonged to Lenard and Sarah. Stunned, Mandy stopped crying tears of joy. Two streaks of salt-stained tracks dried quickly on her cheeks. Lenard panicked and began shouting, though he fumbled his words. "Y-You… This… This must be fake!"Despite his volume, there was no hiding the way his voice shook.Scoffing, I walked toward him and lashed out, landing a kick right between his legs. His eyes instantly rolled into the back of his head as he collapsed, rolling around in agony.The s

    "What nonsense are you spouting?" Sarah asked, her voice suddenly losing its edge. She wasn't sure if I was telling the truth or just bluffing, but with everyone watching, things would get tricky if I actually had evidence. She ground her heel into my head. "What kind of tricks are you trying to pull now? Don't you think you've humiliated yourself enough?"As she spoke, she reached down to snatch my phone away. Unexpectedly, Mandy was a split second quicker and managed to pluck it from my hand first. In an instant, it was as if time had frozen in the private room. Everyone's gaze zeroed in on Mandy's hand.Panic swelled in Sarah; she no longer cared what the others might think as she hastily lunged to grab the phone. However, it seemed something had finally clicked in Mandy's brain. She quickly stuffed the phone into her bra and stared at Sarah in disbelief. Then, in a voice so shrill it sounded like nails on a chalkboard, she screeched, "Sarah, what are you doing? You didn't

    The average person couldn't possibly imagine the hardships I'd endured—what it was like to go from a wild child fighting stray dogs for food, looked down on by everyone, to where I was today. All the blood and tears I'd shed over the years had taught me one thing—never show your full hand to anyone. Not even your lover. From the moment we met, Sarah had simply assumed that I was a somewhat well-off startup founder, and nothing more. Little did she know, the primary investor who had funded her company was me. Sitting down on the genuine leather couch, I crossed my legs and gave her a long, assessing look."Help pay for their house, huh? No problem. I'll personally deliver the money to him in a few days."At first, Sarah was displeased that I wouldn't just transfer the money to her directly. However, after a moment's thought, she realized she would benefit from this regardless, so it didn't matter how I did it. What was more important to her was whether I could actually fork out

    After handling that matter, I crashed back into bed to get some sleep. When I woke up, I discovered that Lenard had called me several times.I called him back immediately. The moment the call connected, his voice—too high to be a male's, yet too low to be a female's—drifted through the phone tauntingly."Jonathan, so what if you forwarded that video to the university chat group? In the end, Mandy still believed me!"I seriously don't understand how I'm inferior to you. Let me tell it to you straight—I'm definitely going to win Sarah over. It's only a matter of time!"It was clear that Lenard was laying his intentions bare, openly challenging me. I spent the next ten minutes or so cussing him out before he finally hung up.However, a short while later, he edited the recording of me cursing at him and uploaded it to the chat group."You didn't think I would manage to steal your video, huh? That's right, I just can't stand you! What are you gonna do about it? Mandy must be on anothe
