However, just when Casper was waiting for Giselle to come out, the place began to get crowded as it

happened to be dinner time.

The sushi restaurant both of them had chosen was named “Aoki”, and it was located close to Business

University. As the food was good and the place conveniently located, it became popular with the

students there.

Although its prices tended to be on the high side, most of the students at the Business University came

from well-off families. Therefore, they could easily afford it.

However, someone like Casper was the exception rather than the norm.

Therefore, despite getting a private room, it obviously wasn’t a good time to be there.

While Casper was waiting for Giselle outside, students from the Business University began to fill the

sushi restaurant.

Over the last two days, Casper was considered a legend in school.

Nevertheless, he was unfazed by all the controversies surrounding him.

Other than scolding Jack in the lecture hall, he seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

He didn’t bother explaining nor clarifying, as if he wasn’t involved at all.

Anyone else in the same situation would have quickly stood out to clarify. Unable to bear with the

pressure, they would either bravely admit what happened or desperately look for evidence to clear their

name.

However, Casper did nothing at all. He didn’t say a thing nor took any action. It was as if nothing had

happened.

Meanwhile, the students from Business University that entered Aoki naturally recognized Casper given

how infamous he was.

Furthermore, they were a couple of other universities nearby.

As rumors spread like wildfire there, even the students from other schools knew who Casper was.

Sawyer’s actions had resulted in Casper being unable to keep a low profile anymore, just like how it

was in school previously.

Everyone there eyed him with disgust and didn’t bother to hide the contempt on their faces.

Damn it.

Casper couldn’t describe how he felt at that moment.

Ever since he was young, Alfred taught him to not care about how others saw him. All he needed to do

was just be himself.

In truth, he never minded their gazes nor their thoughts. After all, they were not of the same level as he

was.

Also, it wasn’t like he never considered blending in. But, he had obviously failed to do so.

Kitty.

Their worlds were never meant to collide.

Only those that Casper acknowledged would have the opportunity to be part of his real life.

Despite knowing that he would not have anything to do with them, he still couldn’t help but be infuriated

by their treatment and the fact that he had been set up.

However, for someone like Casper, the angrier he got, the calmer he became.

Looking at the contemptuous gazes that everyone was giving him, he was cognizant that this was all

part of Sawyer’s scheme.

In other words, it was a crucial part of his plan which was to attack both the body and the mind.

Regardless of whichever method he used, Casper would no longer have a chance to be with Giselle as

long as one of them succeeded.

In the event both prongs of attack achieve their goal, Casper would be dealt a devastating blow and be

utterly ruined.

Evidently, Sawyer didn’t show Casper any mercy at all.

It was just that Casper wasn’t an ordinary person. A plot like that might work against someone else but

was totally ineffective against him.

After all, it would be preposterous if Casper was defeated by such a low-level scheme given what was

in store for him in the future.

Nevertheless, Sawyer did underestimate Casper. After all, he didn’t expect Casper to still be able to

mount a counterattack under such dire circumstances.

In other words, it never crossed his mind that Casper would be able to turn the tide.

At the end of the day, he had underestimated Casper and overestimated himself.

Holding that thought, the agitation that Casper felt earlier slowly dissipated.

While waiting quietly for Giselle, he scanned the crowd calmly. Nothing on the outside was able to

affect him at all.

When the crowd saw Casper’s expression, the chatter about him grew louder and louder.

“Hey guys, that’s Casper! The ‘legend’ from our school.”

Someone who was unaware asked, “What about him?”

It was a gorgeous-looking lady who was fashionably dressed. Beside her, was a man who came to dine

with her but was visibly not a student of the Business University.

The person who was being asked was delighted by the question given that it was a pretty lady asking.

He began to explain excitedly as if to show off how knowledgeable he was.

“Let me tell you about this guy, Casper. Before this, he was famous in BU for being broke. He couldn’t

pay his tuition and had to scavenge leftovers for food.”

The man loudly explained on purpose and even snuck a glance at Casper. When he saw that Casper

didn’t react, he snorted before continuing.

“Anyway, why would someone poor want to study at BU? He would just end up disgracing himself.

After all, his girlfriend dumped him for the same reason.”

The man added, “When his girlfriend was snatched away by some rich kid, he did not protest at all.

Later on, as if by a stroke of luck he became rich overnight, which took everyone by surprise. It was

from then on that he showed his true character.”

Just as the man was speaking, he quickly softened his voice, as if he was discussing something

shameful.

The pretty lady beside him began to feel anxious. How can you stop the story halfway?

“Erm…” the man kept her in suspense on purpose.

In response, the lady began to egg him on. “Come on, tell me quickly!”

Clearing his throat, the man glanced at Casper again before proudly continuing his story.

“After he became rich overnight, he acted impudently as if he owned the world. Tsk, he would beat up

and threaten the other students, bully them, and snatch their girls. Furthermore, he forced his teacher

to kneel to him and oh, has an online streamer as his sugar baby.”

Despite finishing his story, the man felt as if it wasn’t enough.

“And all these are just the tip of the iceberg of what Casper has done.”

When he saw everyone in the sushi restaurant looking in his direction, it gave his ego a big boost.

Hence, he continued with a regretful tone.
