Chapter: 142
“Hey, have you guys heard that she confessed her feelings for Carlos at his launching ceremony? She said ‘Carlos, I love you’ at least ten times!”
“Of course I’ve heard of it. By the way, a friend of mine toldthat she is a lesbian.”
“What? I feel sick…”
Debbie was appalled at the unconscionable comments being made about her and she instantly regretted coming to the party. She found it amazing how these people hadn’t changed at all even after so many years. They might have grown but they were hardly qualified to be considered ‘grown ups’.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey passed derogatory remarks about her non-stop and after a while even sof the boys joined in the banter. Debbie was just about to get up and Leave when another boy sitting at a nearby table stood up before her.
He shouted contemptuously, “Are you here to enjoy the party or make mindless gossips? Why don’t you Look in the mirror to see what kind of people you are first before you talk about someone else? Until then, shut the hell up!”
The boy was red in the face, as burning rage hissed through his body like venom.
Debbie’s mouth gaped wide open as she looked at him in surprise. This was the first tsomeone else, apart from her own friends, had cforward to defend her. But who was this unfamiliar boy who stood up for her?
If her memory hadn’t failed her, his nwas Gregory.
Perhaps it was because Gregory was not srich second generation, so the others didn’t take his words seriously at all. They were a little startled at first, but soon they began to mock him as well.
“Gregory, do you have a thing for that tomboy?” a girl taunted.
Debbie’s friends called her “Tomboy” as a nickname, but when this girl addressed her as tomboy, the sarcasm in her voice was quite evident.
She wanted to remind people that Debbie didn’t have anything womanly about her apart from her pretty face.
Much to Debbie’s surprise, Gregory didn’t deny it. He snapped back ragingly, “So what? I’d rather date a girl like Debbie instead of a nosey parker like you.”
“I’m so touched!” another girl mocked.
“I want to throw up. Makeswonder what he’ll get out of this. Why is he overreacting like this?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Gregory, you’d better be careful around her. Otherwise, she might beat you black and blue.”
Words had left Debbie, and although, she had taken several deep breaths to calm herself down, there was a fire burning inside of her that she couldn’t extinguish. Fortunately, she was well aware of her anger management issues. If they weren’t her high school classmates, she would have made them beg for mercy.
“How’s the food?” Debbie grinned at the girls sitting across the table.
Not knowing why she had asked such an irrelevant question, one of the girls nodded and answered, “The food here tastes as good as the one on the fifth floor of Alioth Building in Shining International Plaza.”
“Really? It’s such a pity that you won’t be able to enjoy it much longer.” With a demeaning smile, Debbie stood up from her chair and slammed her fist on the table. Bang! The wine glass in front of her fell to the floor and shattered into tiny pieces.
Silence befell the private booth.
What Debbie did next sent the girls screaming hysterically.
Since the dining table was fixed firmly to the floor, she turned around, lifted her chair and smashed it on the table. The delicious dishes that had been on the table just a few seconds ago were now littered on the floor, while shards of glass and porcelain flew in the air.
“Debbie, are you crazy?”
