Chapter 228
The classmates continued spouting nonsense. Chuck was even more infuriated. Auntie Logan was just beside him!
"Regine, Class Monitor, let me clarify myself. I'm actually..." Chuck didn't need to hide anything. He did come from a rich family. Even Regine was not as rich as him.
"Stop it, Chuck. You really don't have to explain."
Regine sighed helplessly. "Chuck, don't you see that I'm trying to help you? How could you talk about being a sugar baby so openly? Everyone knows the truth now, so you don't need to lie anymore. Lying would only make you look even more shameless."
The other classmates were even more sarcastic. What else was there to clarify? Why was Chuck being so smug? Was he really planning to declare to everyone that he had become a kept man? Perhaps Chuck was really looking for a rich woman...
"Why are you so shameless? You weren't like this back in school."
"Regine, I think you have misunderstood me," Chuck frowned.
He used to have a good relationship with Regine in high school. He would occasionally say a few words to her.
Although Regine hid her rich background from everyone, she was very easy to get along with, so she had a good relationship with the other classmates as well, including Chuck.
Regine had pretended to be poor, but her family was very rich. She lived her life thriftily, but her life back home was luxurious. However, Regine knew that Chuck was an actual poor kid, so he was different from her.
"There's no misunderstanding between us. Let's stop talking about this. We're going to the golf course now. Why don't you come along?" Regine sighed. She then prayed in her heart, "Chuck, please stop talking. I've helped you out so many times. Don't you get what I'm trying to do?"
"I don't know how to play golf." Chuck shook his head. He had never dabbled in the sport before, but he knew that only wealthy people would play it. After all, it was not too long ago when he got to know that his mother was an extremely rich and powerful woman. He didn't have time to familiarize himself with the habits and interests of the rich.
Chuck thought that he would only have a go at it after he became the richest man in the country.
All his classmates laughed. He had a rich lady sponsoring him, and yet he didn't know how to play golf. It seemed that Chuck had only gotten lucky recently!
"Then let's go to the hot springs. It's my treat. Your... She could come along too," Regine said. She was helping Chuck out again by changing the topic.
Regine felt that Chuck should learn to play golf now that he had become a kept man. It had always been a sport where the upper classes would gather and socialize with each other. If his current sugar mommy eventually got rid of him, Chuck could at least snag another one with his skills in golf!
"It's okay. You guys should go ahead!"
Chuck still shook his head. Willa's figure was so good, but Chuck didn't want to go. He also didn't want these people to see Willa in a swimsuit. How could he allow these perverted men to ogle at his Auntie Logan?
Willa was his Auntie Logan. How could he let these people see her like that?
Chuck did not know that Willa had never worn a swimsuit. She did not like other people seeing her body, except for the people she liked. Usually, she would not dress in revealing clothes.
"Are you really not going to go? You haven't been to a hot spring, have you?" The class monitor smiled. This rich woman was so mean to Chuck! The monitor couldn't believe that she had never brought Chuck to a hot spring.
Chuck glanced at him and said, "Well, I really have not been to one before."
Regine's head was throbbing. She knew she couldn't help Chuck out anymore. If he had never been to a hot spring before, he probably had not done many of the things that they were going to do after. "You've never gone to a hot spring before? It's not that expensive. It's only around a hundred dollars per person here," the class monitor said with a smile.
"Yeah, it's not expensive. Chuck, you've got a BMW 7 Series now. You should enjoy life!" The other classmates said, ridiculing him.
"Just come. It'll be my treat," Regine sighed. She hoped that Chuck could finally get the hint. She was really trying her best to help him out!
"It's really not necessary. I'm going to have a walk with my Auntie Logan." Chuck shook his head. Regine was the only one in the entire group who had treated him quite well. Hence, he decided that he would just forget about what had happened earlier.
His classmates were surprised and started sneering again.
"Auntie Logan? Is she your aunt?"
"I really can't tell."
"Of course we wouldn't be able to tell. She's his distant relative. They don't look alike at all."
Regine sighed. There was no need to cover up his lie. Everyone already knew all about it. What was the point of saying that?
Chuck insisted that the woman was his aunt, but she did not look like it at all! It was impossible!
"Chuck, just stop." Regine said helplessly. She pitied him. He was trying to cover up the fact that the woman was her sugar mommy. But he should have used a better reason!
Ah!
"Don't you believe me?" Chuck was surprised and looked curiously at Willa Logan. Indeed, they didn't look like each other at all.
Willa had been smiling the whole time. How could she get herself involved in matters between those students? As an elder, she did not want to bully these youths.
"Well, she really is my Auntie Logan. If you don't believe me, then just forget about it. Also, I think all of you have misunderstood. My Auntie Logan is very rich. But I am rich too. I also came from a rich family. I bought the BMW 7 Series myself," Chuck said.
"Chuck, you!" Regine was angry. Was he trying to make a fool out of her?
She had been helping Chuck from the beginning. How could he make her look like a fool? He was obviously mocking her for concealing the fact that she was from a rich family when they were in school. The students covered their mouth and snickered. He didn't even bother to come out with a convincing lie. He just said that this beautiful woman was his Auntie Logan, and now he actually said that he came from a rich family. Who would believe that?
Last time, Regine pretended to be poor, but she was still charming and gentle because of her rich background. But what about him? He looked like a loser. How could he insist that he came from a rich family? He should just admit that he had become a sugar baby! He was definitely not from a rich family.
The classmates laughed at him mockingly, and Regine was angry. "Chuck, you've gone too far. You're laughing at me!"
Chuck was really stunned. "Regine, what am I laughing at you for? I really came from a rich family."
What just happened? He said that he came from a rich family, just like Regine did, but they refused to believe him. Chuck felt helpless.
Regine got even angrier. She even felt that she was stabbed in the back by Chuck. She wanted to help him, but he turned around and embarrassed her instead. "I told you to stop talking! Do you know what you said? Is she really your aunt? Haha, do you really think that all of us are blind? Aren't you just..."
Humph. After all, they were once classmates. They decided to let Chuck protect what was left of his dignity.
"What?" Chuck was also frustrated by Regine's sudden anger.
"Do you really want me to say it out loud? Chuck, I never knew that you were such a person. Are you still a man? How could you be so arrogant about being a kept man?" Regine was angry. He had pushed he to her limits. She had tried to help him just now so that he could maintain his dignity. However, Chuck was not grateful at all!
Chuck was also infuriated. "Do you all think this way too?"
Willa, who was standing at the side, also glanced at them and shook her head. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. What were all these children thinking all day long?
"You can talk about me, but you can't talk about Auntie Logan like that. First of all, she is not a sugar mommy, and she will never be one. Secondly, I really come from a rich family. I don't need other people to support me," Chuck said coldly.
"Chuck! You really know how to tell a lie! Well, if you say that you are from a rich family like me, then prove it!" Regine snorted coldly. Chuck was the one who brought this upon himself. He wouldn't dare to blame her!
"How should I prove it?" Chuck asked.
"Haha, Chuck, are you trying to make me laugh? Didn't you say that you came from a rich family? Do you really need us to tell you how to prove your wealth? Do you not have any experience at all? Is this your first day of being a young master from a rich family?" They laughed.
They all thought that Chuck was really good at lying!
No wonder he could find such a beautiful and rich woman. They were really envious. However, now that things had turned out this way, perhaps this beautiful, rich woman would get rid of Chuck after realizing that he was nothing but an idiot. Would they have a chance then?
"Chuck, are you really rich?" Regine thought it was really funny. She laughed at herself in her heart. She couldn't believe that she had tried to help this person out. Why should she be so angry? Chuck had said so much just to cover up the fact that he was a kept man.
"Yes! I am rich. But how do you want me to prove it? I have to accompany Auntie Logan now, so I don't have time to take you to my plaza. My sports car, and my..." Chuck said. He wouldn't mind bringing them to the plaza if he was alone, but how could he leave Auntie Logan here?
He was here to accompany Auntie Logan, not these snobbish classmates.
"Stop it! Chuck, you're getting more and more outrageous. So, you own a plaza? What plaza? You're boasting but you're not giving us any evidence. How much does a plaza cost? Do you know that? Show us some proof!" Regine was furious.
She wondered what was wrong with herself. Why should she waste time arguing with Chuck? He was just a gigolo who was full of lies!
