Chapter 134


    Richard decided not to let Sophia escape anymore; hence, he grabbed her arms and spoke to her in a


    serious tone, “Sophia, I have decided to marry X and she’s the only person whom I will marry. We


    have decided to be engaged. Let bygones be bygones, shall we? I hope you can have a happy life


    and find the perfect one for you.”


    She had no idea why the both of them suddenly looked at her and said those baffling words. While


    lowering her head to look for her keys, she nodded carelessly. “Okay.”


    Richard knew that she was merely brushing them off and still scheming to destroy their rtionship. He


    held her arms tightly as his tone became more serious. “Sophia, it’s impossible for us to reconcile. Both


    X and I are about to get engaged, so we hope you can give us your sincere blessings.”


    Sophia had finally found her keys, but he was still tightly grabbing onto her. She kept her patience and


    expressed herself in a clear but serious tone, “I hope you have a happy engagement as well as a long


    and happy life together. I also understand that our rtionship is in the past now. For everything that


    happened in the past, just let it slide. After all, we were all so young and immature. It would have been


    normal for us to hurt each other back then.”


    Her words had left him stunned. Her reply is so straightforward! It doesn’t resemble her at all! She must


    be trying to brush it off while having some ns in her mind!


    Grabbing her arms, he looked at her solemnly. “Sophia, I’m not messing around with you. I hope you can


    leave the past and start a new life. It’s impossible for us to be together anymore.”


    X also added, “Yes, Sophia. There’s no point in pestering Richard. There are so many talented guys


    here at Bayside University. You can totally find yourself another man.”


    Sophia, who had been blocked by them, looked at the sky in speechlessness. How can I make them


    believe that I’m not interested in Richard and being his wife anymore? Do I really have to beat them up


    again?


    She tried to break free from Richard’s grip, but he still held onto her tightly. “Sophia, I want you to swear


    that you won’t pester us anymore. Otherwise, I won’t let you go.”


    As it was after her lecture, many people were looking at the three of them.


    She realized that apart from punching him, there was no other evidence to show him that she was


    already over him.


    Hence, she quietly raised her fist.


    Suddenly, a mboyant country metal music boomed in the distance while getting closer to them.


    Then, a punk-styled ck motorcycle stopped right next to Sophia, making her annoyed with the heavy


    beats sting in her ears.


    A man sat on the motorcycle, wearing a set of punk attire in ck with long pants and ck boots. His


    entire body was full of studs, revealing a ck belt with many piercings with his leather jacket unzipped.


    The man removed his ck helmet to reveal a sharp face. Thinking that he was handsome, he touched


    his shaved head and turned. A piercing in his left ear shone, matching his look with the punk motorcycle


    and the beat of the country metal music. He looked like a non-mainstream young man, who had just


    returned from the construction site after moving bricks.


    He was rather annoying when he spoke. “Yo, Sophia! What are you doing here?” While speaking, he


    turned off the loud, sting music.


    Sophia stoically looked at Stanley. Taking advantage of Richard’s surprise at Stanley’s arrival, she


    quickly removed her arm from his grip and coldly replied, “Nothing. Just speaking with my ex here.” This


    fe was in normal attire in the army. I can’t believe that he looks like this in university. If his uncle sees


    the way he looks right now, he will definitely break his leg!


    Even though he’s no longer in the military, he is still part of the Fletcher Family and his parents are


    professors in Bayside University. On top of that, he is a senior engineer who has retired from the military


    with an older brother who’s already a lieutenant in the army. No matter what, this fellow should not look


    like he is someone from the countryside holding a blue cor job!


    After all, hees from a top military family that’s almost as wealthy as a country, the Fletcher Family.


    On top of that, he’s also Joel’s biological younger cousin and the direct heir of the Fletcher Family!


    I know that the people from the Fletchers family are quite ‘low-profile’, but I didn’t expect it’s too this


    extent!


    His arrival had shocked everyone there, considering that Bayside University was a solemn and


    prestigious ce. For good or for bad, his arrival immediately made him stand out from the crowd as he


    was a punk guy with a shaved head. However, he was definitely good-looking enough to attract all the


    girls near him.


    Looking at Stanley, Richard became immediately vignt, especially after hearing him saying ‘Sophia’.


    Subconsciously, he asked in the tone of her boyfriend, “Who is this?”


    This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.


    “Her current boyfriend!” Stanley hugged Sophia’s shoulders as he replied loudly.


    Sophia rolled her eyes and forced herself to admit to it. “Yes, he’s my current boyfriend.” Now that I have


    a boyfriend, is it enough to prove that I no longer have wild fantasies of Richard?


    However, Richard still appraised Stanley from head to toe. This punk, non-mainstream guy obviously did


    note from a decent background in Richard’s opinion. Hence, it made him feel terrible. Although he


    was about to be engaged with X, he subconsciously felt disappointed and angry when he heard that


    Sophia had another boyfriend. How can this punk guy be good enough for Sophia? Only someone with


    my talents and looks will suit her! Is Sophia giving up on herself? Did she decide to torture herself after


    she couldn’t be with me?


    However, X felt that a b*tch like Sophia suited a punk guy like Stanley, so she congratted them. “I


    see. Seems like you guys had already started dating during the military training. Congrats and I send you


    all my blessings.”


    However, she could not hide her contempt and disgust in her eyes.


    Sophia nodded. “Thanks. Our rtionship is going well. I shall head off first.”


    She rode on her motorcycle and sped off after starting the engine.


    Stanley chased after her with his punk-looking motorcycle. Amid the ring beats, he yelled anxiously,


    “Hey, Sophia! Why are you so ruthless? Wait for me!”


    Both the motorcycles sped away. Looking at the disappearing figures of the pair of them, Richard did not


    feel too good, but he couldn’t describe his feelings right now.


    Even though he wanted Sophia to give up on him, he felt that an important piece of him was missing


    when she had finally moved on.


    Sophia did not have any lectures in the afternoon, she nned to head to the gym before returning


    home. However, Stanley chased after her and they were unknowingly out of the Bayside University


    campus at that moment. “Hey, Sophia! Where are you going? Come, I’ll bring you to have some fun!”


    A traffic light was in front of them, so she stopped to wait for the red light while replying in disgust, “I


    won’t go.”


    However, he did not give up. “Let’s go! Nate says that you’re also ying the ‘Swordsman Game’! I’m


    going to y the game too! Do you know that it’s going to be the first anniversary of the game? There’s


    an anniversary event that’s going to happen soon and it onlysts for 12 hours. It starts from noon to


    midnight and you will gain twice the experience. On top of that, there will be a greater chance to obtain


    legendary items, and there are many other activities going on, like fights between ns. Let’s go and


    y together! Come on!”
