Chapter 809 School


    Anthony stared at Sue with utter disbelief. "What the hell are you talking about?" After hearing Sue''s


    words, he just could not rte her to the girl he had known for such a long time. His face grew


    increasingly pale. He had known her to be a well-educated and reasonable girl, who was always so


    gentle and thoughtful when she spoke to him. He had never thought that Sue would say such annoying


    and rude words.


    Sue stared at Anthony with a stern face. She could see how deeply her harsh words had affected


    Anthony. But she did this on purpose.


    All she wanted was to generate so much of hatred and disgust for her in his heart that he would not


    even like to see her anymore. Yes, she wanted to break up with him once and for all.


    "Sue, I... I am shocked to hear that. This is what you think about me? I''ve never thought that you


    consider me to be such a wicked man." Anthony said straight to Sue with a wry smile, "I know, I have


    hurt you deeply. All I want to do is to make up for that. I am awfully sorry if my action makes you get it


    wrong. Please trust me. That is not my intention."


    "Stop it now, Anthony." Sue sneered at Anthony. The coldness in her voice ran a chill down his spine as


    she continued, "Don''t think I''ve never known that you were just fooling around with me from the


    beginning to the end. Now, you are afraid that I will take our rtionship seriously, so you can''t wait to


    get rid of me. Anthony, you are such a disgusting scum."


    "You…" Staring at Sue in front of him, Anthony was rendered speechless. He just could not find an


    appropriate word to reciprocate to the usations made by her.


    And more than anything else what bothered him the most was the change in her behavior that


    happened almost overnight.


    "So? You have nothing to say? Why are you so speechless?" Sue sneered and said to Anthony who


    was in front of her, "Anthony, listen! I''m not a fool. I am an independent girl who can afford what she


    wants. Since you don''t want to take our rtionship seriously, I won''t be with you anymore. You can be


    rest assured that I will never badger with you again from now on. I give you my words on that."


    Sue was breaking down into pieces inside as she watched Anthony being hurt by her rude and harsh


    words. Only her soul would be a witness to her bleeding heart as she craftily executed her n to


    break up with the man she loved so dearly. A man on whom she showered all her love and support


    even after knowing that his heart rested on another woman. She gave her all to him till the night before.


    But everything changed now.


    Indeed, she had no other choice. With Peggying running after her, she could not risk Anthony and


    his family to get involved into the muck and grime of her life. The only way for her was to end her


    rtionship with him.


    Sue took a deep nce at Anthony, and said to him, "Here is myst words to you! Please don''t bother


    me anymore. We are strangers from now on. Even if we happen to meet each other on the street,


    please treat me as a stranger and just ignore me. Do you understand?"


    "Sue, do you really need to be so heartless?" Anthony tried to move closer to her with an intention to


    persuade her and looked straight into her eyes. Anthony loved Sheryl and he was clear that he did not


    want any other girl to take her ce. Yes, he had been with Sue during some moments of weakness


    but he was clear that they could not be together as a couple. Yet, he thought that they could be good


    friends. However, after hearing what Sue had to say to him this morning, he realized that being friend


    with Sue was just his illusion.


    Sue sneered with coldness, and questioned Anthony, "Heartless? So what I am saying sounds


    heartless to you, right?"


    Sue stared straight into Anthony''s eyes and continued, "And what about my dignity, Anthony? My


    dignity as a girl? Don''t you think you have denied my dignity time and again? Though you were with


    me, you always parked your loyalty on Sheryl. Always pining for her! And now after you have


    expressed clearly that you wouldn''t be with me in the future, you still expect me to be shameless


    enough to stay with you?"


    "Sue, I thought we are still friends," Anthony said with a wry smile.


    "Friends!" Sue scowled, "Does it even work? Do you think after the intimate rtionship we had we


    could merely be just friends?


    Let it go." Sue took a deep sigh and added, "I am really feeling exhausted. Now, please… just let me


    go."


    Staring at Anthony in front of her, Sue continued, "Since it is not possible for us to be together, I would


    rather that we''ve never known each other. As far as yourpensation is concerned, it is not what I


    want."


    Yes, even though her financial state was not as well as Anthony''s, but her self-esteem made her to turn


    down hispensation.


    Sue had fallen in love with Anthony, but not his property. If he could not return her love, it was alright.


    But she didn''t want Anthony misunderstand that she had any purposes to be with him.


    "As you said previously, I came with you out of my own will. As long as you do not bother my life any


    longer, I''d consider it to be the biggestpensation for me."


    After hearing Sue''s words, Anthony took a deep breath and said to her, "Well, in that case I have


    nothing to say. But Sue, you have my words. I know you are angry right now, and you don''t want to


    ept any help from me, but if one day…"


    Anthony spoke with a wry smile, "If one day you are really driven into the corner and need a hand,


    please do call me, okay?"


    Anthony looked at Sue imploringly. This was the only way that he could be a little bit relieved in his


    heart.


    However, much contrary to his expectations, Sue sneered with coldness and retorted, "Anthony Xiao,


    don''t ever expect that from me! There won''t be such a moment when I would need to ask you for help."


    Looking straight at Anthony, Sue continued, "And God forbid, even if Ie under a hard moment ever


    in my life, you will be thest person on earth I would turn to."


    Sue ended up the conversation with her final words. Then she turned around and left, leaving Anthony


    behind in the hotel room.


    Anthony gazed at the closed door as Sue walked away, feeling a weird void inside his heart. He did not


    love her but he took support from her when he was in despair. She loved him without an expectation.


    Anthony would be at peace if she epted his offer but when she chose her self-esteem and returned


    his offer, he became a bit unsettled. He thought for a while and realized his mistake.


    He suddenly thought, ''I am such a jerk. I hurt a girl who loves me so deeply.


    To be honest, if I hadn''t met Sheryl before or if I did not love Sheryl so deeply, perhaps I would have


    fallen for Sue.


    However, there is no ''if'' in the world. I knew and fell in love with Sheryl first, so Sue was doomed to get


    hurt.'' Anthony finally tried to justify his action attributing it to fate.


    As Sue walked out of the room, her eyes burst into tears. She knew that it was all over between


    Anthony and her. Now, she had never hated herself and Peggy so much in her life.


    Had it not been for Peggy, she would not have ended her rtionship with Anthony.


    Three years ago when Peggy hadpelled her to marry that old man, she was depressed. She never


    had hatred for her mother despite all her misdoings. But now her heart was filled with hatred for her


    mother. She would never forgive her for this.


    Outside the hotel, Sue stopped a taxi to go home. After taking a bath at home, she went to the Shining


    Company with a tired body and two ck eyes. The Fashion Show of Shining Company was getting


    closer and closer. For Sue, merely putting her attention on work could make her forget Anthony.


    Nearly lunchtime, everyone went to have lunch, except Sue. Sheryl looked at Sue. Sheryl didn''te

    to the Shining Company for a while, but Sue had been here everyday. Sheryl observed Sue to be off


    the mark that day. There was obviously weird about Sue working so hard that day.


    Sheryl wanted to ask Sue about what happened. But she immediately stopped herself from thinking


    that it would not be appropriate for her to interfere.


    At that time, Charles came to invite Sheryl to have lunch, and Sheryl left with Charles.


    After the lunch, Charles handed over a document, and said to Sheryl, "The kids will go to school next


    month. I have applied for their admission earlier. I will take Charlie to change his name to rk


    tomorrow. I have already arranged an intelligence test for him in the school. If it is okay, I want him to


    stay in this school for the next two years. After all, he is too young. It is not a good thing for him to skip


    too many grades. Shirley has also attained the school going age. These are the schools I''ve found for


    her, which are also close to his school. What do you think of it?"
