What the hell do you want?" Diana questioned Brian. She was so mad at him! Brian had thrown out all her bedding. How could he now take advantage of Antonette's kindness, her best friend?

Brian still looked at her without emotion.

"Thanks to you, I had to work all night. Now you come to my dormitory. When will you stop?" Diana was so angry she could almost cry.

Her words made the room silent. The roommates all looked at her curiously.

Brian smiled. He looked even better when he smiled. But his eyes were taunting her.

"So…did you enjoy it?"

Diana was speechless.

The girls all looked curiously at them. Life in school was so boring and mundane. Such drama was a welcome distraction.

How could he say such words?

Brian was trying to make everyone think that the two of them had been together s.e.x.u.a.lly!

We've never even touched one another, Diana thought.

But actually, they had. Suddenly Diana thought of the kiss long ago, she was reminded of his heat, his s.e.xy lips, and smell.

When she thought of it, her face blushed, and her ears turned red.

Brian looked at her red ears and felt they were so attractive.

Antonette was listening to everything that was said. She kept calm on the surface, but her heart was full of hatred.

The manager told her that Diana didn't have a good night.

She never thought that it hadn't been a good night because Diana had s.e.x with Brian!

She assumed that Brian would hate Diana when he found her working at the bar. What was wrong with her plan?

Antonette realized she might have underestimated Diana. She must have seduced Brian like those other girls in the bar.

Antonette felt full of regret. If she had met Brian earlier, he would never have had any feeling for Diana.

Now Diana had taken advantage of her to be close to Brian.

When Antonette thought of this, she was so jealous of Diana and looked at her with hatred. However, Diana was so buried in her shyness that she didn't even see Antonette standing there.

Brian finally broke the silence and said, "You want to make money. It's OK. But you don't need to go to that kind of place."

Since Diana was in the bar with the waitress dressing, Brian knew that she must be short of money.

"That kind of place? What was wrong with the bar?" Diana thought.

"So what about you? You can go to that kind of place. Why can't I? I was working there." Diana emphasized the words "that kind of place", mocking Brian's voice.

"Do you think you and I are the same kinds of people?" Brian frowned.

"You are a girl. You shouldn't go into Adam's Bar. It's not a good place for you."

"Why shouldn't I go there? I have been working there for several days. Nothing bad has happened. And everyone there likes me."

Diana did lead a good life there before Brian came. Everyone in the maintenance department loved her.

However, when Brian heard that everyone liked her, he misunderstood. He considered "everyone" to mean the customers who went there.

He thought maybe Diana was not what he'd imagined before.

"Do you really need the money that badly?" Brian's voice turned cold.

When he mentioned it, Diana felt angry.

"You dare to mention money! If you hadn't cut my salary, I wouldn't have had to get a part-time job in the first place!"

Brian thought it was ridiculous that Diana used this as an excuse.

"Keep treating me, and I will pay you."

As long as she didn't need to go to the bar, he could provide everything she needed.

"I have already helped you move the bedding. You don't need to do anything. You can move into my villa right now. Though the date of our contract has already expired, I am no better than before. I still have that problem."

Diana didn't care about it. She wasn't afraid anymore.

He wanted to cheat her, make her sign a contract to sell herself. No way.

"I won't go there. I am determined." She refused him.

Antonette stood by, hating Diana more and more. This was what she dreamed of. But Diana refused it. Didn't she know how special this chance was?

Brian didn't l even look at her. But she could treat him too. Antonette decided it was time to speak up.

"Mr. William. I am a student majoring in medicine. I can…"

However, Brian didn't care about her. He signaled to the bodyguards, and they pushed Antonette away. Stood to the side with the rest of the crowd, Antonette felt aggrieved and hostile.

Why does Brian only like Diana?

Brian snapped his fingers, and Ken soon appeared from outside.

"Boss, I have thrown away all of Miss Anderson's bedding."

"What about the room in the villa?"

"I have already prepared it."

Brian looked at Diana and said, "So where do you want to live? In this shabby dormitory, where you don't even have a mattress? Or in the villa, with a luxury bed and anything you could d.e.s.i.r.e? You can think for a while and then come to give me the answer."

***

After presenting Diana with his offer, Brian strode out of the dormitory.

After he left, the girls started gossiping sadly to each other.

"Is he a superstar? How could he be so handsome?"

"God, he is much more handsome than any superstar!"

"Who is that girl? How should she yell at such a dashing man? I'd be happy if he would just look at me.

"His car is also very cool!"

Despite the other girls' gossip, Diana complained in her heart, if these girls knew what kind of person Brian really was, they would definitely change their mind about him. He was a sheep in wolf's clothing. And he was impotent!

Diana walked drowsily to her bed, only to see the empty bed frame.

She raced downstairs with clenched fists but saw Brian's Maybach already pulling away. There were only exhaust fumes left for Diana.

First, Brian, now even his car, was bullying her!

Diana roared at the disappearing car: "Give me my stuff back! That's my private property!"

There were a lot of onlookers with cameras outside the dormitory, trying to catch a glimpse of the handsome man. They all thought Brian must be a star there to make a movie.

"Give me my stuff back! You are the devil!" Diana was so angry and still shouting.

Diana's behavior seemed very strange to those watching her.

The man had a powerful aura with two lines of bodyguards following him. Why would he take her things?

People also wondered about Diana, looking at her curiously.

She was so common-looking. How did she know that guy? Was she delusional?

Or was she just crazy for handsome boys?

Diana could feel his stares all around her and shouted up at the people watching: "It's none of your business!"

Then she went gloomily to the dormitory. If she stayed where she was, she would soon be well known throughout the school.

Antonette looked at Diana aggrievedly as she came back into the dormitory.

She had dressed up today, which made her look delicate and attractive. Normally, Diana would have commented on her beauty. However, today was different.

Diana was really angry about Antonette's behavior. She had even served Brian tea!

"Diana… …" Antonette stopped Diana and called to her in a low, regretful voice.

Diana didn't reply, nor did she look at Antonette.

"I am sorry, Diana." Antonette was on the verge of tears. She continued to say, "You know what he's like. Please forgive me."

Diana stopped when she heard this. It was true, if Brian asked Antonette to do something, Antonette would definitely not have the courage to refuse.

She looked at Antonette with a complicated feeling.

Antonette was her best friend. But Antonette had helped the person that she hated most. For this matter, she was unable to get over.

Seeing Diana's silence, Antonette cried out. She choked with sobs, "Diana, I dare not disobey him."

"You…" Diana was disappointed at Antonette, "Do you remember the way he treated you in the villa?"

Antonette wiped her tears and answered with a sob, "Yes, I do. But I think I think that's just how he is, he doesn't like to talk to strangers."

Of course, Antonette remembered Brian's coldness and indifference. But she believed if Brian knew her merits, he would change his attitude.

Diana must have said something bad about her to Brian. Otherwise, Brian would already have noticed her. Antonette swore to herself that she would get revenge on Diana.

But for now, she still needed Diana to get close to Brian. She had to keep their friendship going. And Antonette was a master of manipulation.

She quickly pulled Diana close, hugging her tightly.

"Sorry, Diana," Antonette wiped her tears and apologized to Diana, "I won't ever do it again. Now I realize what kind of person he is."

Diana began to melt when seeing Antonette's tears.

They had been friends for a long time. Antonette had helped her a lot in the past. If she didn't attend the class, but the teacher checked attendance, Antonette would help her answer.

She would have failed many classes without Antonette's help.

"He was so mean to you." Antonette continued, "I will not listen to him anymore. Diana, please don't be angry. We are still good friends, right?"

Diana finally gave in. Antonette lacked good judgment and didn't know how to refuse others. So it was wrong for her to be angry with Antonette.

"All right, all right. I forgive you." Diana comforted Antonette with a hug. But she was too tired and sleepy to stand up. She almost fell on Antonette.

Antonette held Diana quickly and then said with great care, "Diana, there is one more thing I need to tell you. Please don't be angry."

Diana stood up with a struggle, "Go ahead."

"I moved your bedding outside under their orders." Antonette said carefully, "I was scared of what they would do to me if I didn't help."

"It doesn't matter. I forgive you." Thinking about Brian's despicable actions, she comforted Antonette in between yawns, "I know you were forced to do that. It's Brian's fault."

When Antonette saw things were going well, she asked the question that was most troubling her, "What did you do with Brian at Adam's Bar?"

"Adam's Bar? Brian?" Diana was too sleepy to think about Antonette's question, "What…?"

Diana walked to her b.a.r.e bed and quickly fell asleep.

"Diana? Diana?" Antonette's voice gradually disappeared.

The bed board was very hard, and there was no pillow. But Diana was too tired and sleepy to answer Antonette. She was sound asleep in her bed, even with Antonette calling loudly to her.
