Chapter 98: Scum
“You’re up? I was about to wake you up for breakfast.” William Scott pushed the door and walked in.
“Oh, yeah,” Yvette Quinn mumbled casually. She got out of bed and yawned again. Then, realizing a problem, she buried her face in her hands and said, “Hmmm, can you go out first.”
William Scott chuckled at her and said, “Even if you don’t have any makeup on, you’re still beautiful.”
“I can’t. Go out now.”
After chasing William Scott out, Yvette Quinn stood there in a daze for several seconds. When he came in just now, she didn’t even realize something was amiss at all, as if it was a normal occurrence. It had only been one night, but she was already used to him being in the same room as her.
Although it was a pretense that they were sharing a bed, it actually made them get used to it. It was really an amazing thing to sleep in the same bed.
After washing up, she ate a good breakfast before changing back into her own clothes.
“Yvette, come back for dinner tonight,” Janna Sands asked before they left the house.
This time, Yvette Quinn took the initiative to reply, “Auntie, I’ll be very busy for the next two days. I can only come over after that.”
.
William Scott also replied, “I’m going on a business trip tomorrow as well. Don’t worry about us for the next couple of days.”
Janna Sands said, “All right. You guys are just too busy today. That’s why I’m worried. If you’re not busy, you guys can go and have some private time. I don’t even care.”
The two of them walked out of the neighborhood together. “Do you need a ride?” Yvette Quinn asked.
William Scott said, “We’re going in two different directions. I’ll take a cab.”
......
“Oh, okay. I’ll leave first.” Yvette Quinn waved at him before she left in a hurry.
William Scott watched as she left before he took a taxi. He felt a little amused. The two of them had pretended to be a couple, and their relationship was only in name. Now, not only did they have to do things like meeting the parents, they had even reached the point of cohabitation. Although… they were only sleeping together and nothing else happened, in the eyes of his mother, something had already happened.
At noon on Wednesday, William Scott and Xenia Lewis took the high-speed train.
The two of them did not buy any first class seats for the train ride.
After checking their tickets, the two of them queued up to get on the train. When the carriage door opened, everyone was waiting to get on.
When William Scott and Xenia Lewis were about to get into the car, two others suddenly squeezed them and made Xenia Lewis stumble.
“Don’t you know how to queue?” She regained her footing and immediately frowned.
The man and a woman were well-dressed and obviously wealthy. The woman snorted and said, “We bought the first class seats.” Then she strode into the train.
Xenia Lewis said unhappily, “What’s so great about first class seats? Does it mean you do not follow the rules?”
The woman turned around and replied arrogantly, “You’re right. Not everyone can afford the first class tickets. Being able to afford it means I have money, and with money, I can do whatever I want.” With that, she went straight in.
.
Xenia Lewis hissed angrily, “Who is that woman? She’s simply scum.”
William Scott said calmly, “There’s no need to argue with these people. No, there’s no need to argue with a dog.”
“Pfft!” Xenia Lewis immediately laughed.
Unexpectedly, the couple rushed out from the train. The man looked at William Scott coldly and said, “If you have the guts, say it again.”
“Oh, your dog’s ears are quite useful,” William Scott replied with a grin.
“B*stard!” The man cursed and actually raised his hand to slap William Scott’s face.
However, before the man’s hand could hit William Scott’s face, he had already grabbed the man’s wrist and he exerted more force.
“Ow! That hurts!” The guy screamed in pain. He tried to break free, but it felt like his hand was being held in a vise. He couldn’t break free, and the pain in his wrist was getting intense.
The staff at the station finally realized what was going on and hurried over. “No fighting, or I’ll call for the police.”
William Scott did not let go. He looked at the guy coldly and said, “Apologize!”
“I…” Sweat trickled down the guy’s face from the pain. “I’m sorry,” he stammered. “I’m sorry.”
William Scott snorted and released him.
The guy quickly withdrew his hand and looked at his wrist. There was already a red mark on it. There were even clear marks from the grip. It was obvious how strong the guy’s hand was.
“Kid, this isn’t over. Just you wait.” No longer restrained, the guy’s face suddenly revealed a ferocious expression. He gritted his teeth and glared at William Scott.
William Scott said indifferently, “You better not provoke me again.” Then, he pulled Xenia Lewis into the train.
Their seats were along the aisle. Xenia Lewis sat down. William Scott stowed their bags on the rack and sat next to her.
Xenia Lewis was still furious and she said, “Those two were really scum. You should have beaten them up just now.”
William Scott chuckled and said, “If we lower ourselves to the level of those scumbags, it will make us seem as uneducated as them.”
Xenia Lewis said, “That’s true. Even if we let the dogs bite us, we can’t bite them.”
William Scott blinked at her and corrected, “You’re wrong about that. If a dog bites us, we can’t bite it back, but we can kill it instead.”
Xenia Lewis was stunned for a moment before she burst out laughing. “You’re so ruthless, but I like it.”
After a short conversation, the two of them did not let this matter affect them. Xenia Lewis took out her phone and began to play a short video. She offered one of her earphones to William Scott and inserted it in his ear. Her shoulder was close to him.
They were already used to such physical contact.
Now that the two of them were watching short videos, it was no longer entertainment but a job. They had to analyze what was popular and what was popular with the audience. They had to find flaws in the video and identify what was good.
It wasn’t lonely that way. More than half an hour passed quickly.
“Dear passengers, there is a patient with a sudden illness in the business seat of carriage eight. We urgently need the help of a doctor. There is a doctor. Please come to carriage eight.”
A broadcast suddenly sounded in the car. It rang many times before William Scott stood up.
