Chapter 17: Jessica’s Agony

Seeing that he had not received a reply for a long time after sending the message, Lucas ignored it.

Anyway, being in the same school, it would be quite easy to meet in private.

He casually took Ivy’s business card and added her as a friend on Discord. Perhaps she was already asleep, as the request was not accepted even after he waited for a while.

Checking the time, it was already 11:00 PM. Lying on the soft, large bed, he did not feel sleepy at all.

Whether it was because he was too excited or afraid that it would all be a dream upon waking, Lucas eventually drifted off in a daze, unsure of when he actually fell asleep.

At the crack of dawn, Lucas woke up. Looking at the luxurious surroundings, he knew his life as a tycoon had truly begun.

Opening Discord to take a look, he saw that Ivy’s friend request had been accepted. She had also sent a message over.

"Lucas, I was already asleep last night. Is there anything you need from me since you added me on Discord?"

Lucas quickly replied with a message. "Ivy, you are joking. How would I dare order you around? I just wanted to add you as a friend!"

As soon as he sent the message, Ivy replied instantly with a smiley face.

After getting up and finishing his morning routine, Lucas thought about his family’s situation.

He had wanted to call home last night, but he did not know how to explain everything.

Lucas’s hometown was in the countryside. His parents used to be ordinary workers.

A few years ago, when his younger sister Aria got into the County First High School, they rented a house in that small county town.

They rented a small storefront outside the high school and opened a breakfast shop.

Because their prices were fair, business was decent, and they managed to settle down in the county town.

Now that Lucas had the Infinite Rebate System, he certainly did not want his parents to toil anymore, but it really was hard to explain over the phone right now.

After thinking it over, he decided to head back in person in a few days.

He went downstairs to the restaurant on the second floor.

Since it was still very early, there were hardly any guests. Lucas certainly had not forgotten the system’s mission.

He pulled out his phone and sent a message to Ivy.

"Hey, I am at the restaurant on the second floor. May I treat you to breakfast?"

Ivy happened to be on the second floor. Upon receiving the message, she did not reply but came straight to the restaurant. Meeting him, she smiled and said,

"Lucas, you are up quite early. Let me treat you to breakfast today!"

Lucas quickly smiled and said, "I am the one who called you here. How could I let you treat me!" As he spoke, he handed the menu to Ivy.

"Order whatever you want, please do not be polite!"

Seeing Lucas say this, Ivy stopped declining and simply ordered a bowl of lean meat porridge.

Seeing this, Lucas did not push further. After all, they had only just met. There was still plenty of time left for the system’s deadline.

Even if he could not win over Ivy, he would not lose anything.

After breakfast, Lucas had to rush to school to see if there was a chance to meet Mia. He said to Ivy, "I have classes, so I will head back to school first. See you tonight!"

Ivy also stood up and escorted Lucas out of the hotel. As the lobby manager, this was part of her duty. After bidding farewell to Ivy, Lucas strolled back to the school.

Jessica had dressed up meticulously today. As one of the two class beauties, while she was not exactly world-shakingly gorgeous, she was still considered a great beauty.

After thoroughly breaking up with Lucas yesterday, she was going to appear openly before Zack today.

As soon as she entered the classroom, she saw Zack sitting in his seat, looking distracted.

Jessica thought Zack was thinking about getting revenge on Lucas. Ignoring the stares of the other students, she strolled up to him.

"Zack, let’s skip class today. Take me out to have some fun!"

Senior year was basically for independent review. Teachers did not care at all whether students showed up for class.

Although Zack had not been beaten by Lucas yesterday, Blaze and his group definitely took their frustration out on him.

Not only did he suffer a physical beating, but he was also heavily extorted for a large sum of money.

He might have to tighten his belt for the next two months. His heart was already filled with extreme frustration.

The moment he heard Jessica tell him to take her out to play, a nameless fire in his heart instantly erupted.

He roared loudly, "Jessica, it is all because of you, you bitch! I have nothing to do with you anymore. Get the hell away from me!"

Jessica was left reeling by Zack’s inexplicable outburst. This was in front of most of the class.

She felt extremely aggrieved. But as one of the two class beauties, Jessica also had a very strong sense of self-esteem.

She also shouted back, "Zack, are you sick this morning? If we are done, we are done. You think I still care about you?"

The other students watched this scene in shock. Although a few knew about the situation, most were in the dark.

They could not understand. Was not Jessica dating Lucas? How did she get involved with Zack?

And judging by the tone just now, it seemed things were over between those two as well.

Jessica returned to her seat fuming, though she did not feel a great sense of loss. She was an 8-out-of-10 beauty herself.

If she really set her mind to it, finding a rich boyfriend would not be difficult. She just could not understand why Zack suddenly treated her like this.

Even after they were both slapped by Lucas yesterday, he had coaxed her with a few words when they left. Today, he was inexplicably talking nonsense.

Just as she was in a foul mood and wanted to return to the dormitory, Lucas entered the classroom. Lucas was wearing the brand-new designer clothes he bought yesterday.

His whole temperament was much better than before. He made many female students’ eyes light up. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

When he passed Zack’s seat, Zack actually stood up, nodded, and fawned, "Hey Lucas, you are here!"

That scene left Jessica dumbfounded. Yesterday, he had left aggressively saying he would find thugs to fix Lucas, but today he looked like a groveling dog.

Jessica simply could not accept it. Was it just because he got slapped once by Lucas? Had he been slapped into a state of trauma?

And as for the brand-new clothes on Lucas, Jessica was also very surprised.

Damn it, only one day after breaking up with her and he had completely upgraded his gear. She felt extremely stifled and aggrieved this morning.

The man she dumped did not look sad at all. Instead, he looked more and more spirited.

Just as she was thinking that out of sight is out of mind and wanting to hurry back to the dorm, suddenly, another great beauty walked in through the classroom door.

It was the number one class beauty, Sofia, holding a heart-shaped breakfast. She walked straight to Lucas.

In her gentlest tone, she said, "Lucas, I brought you breakfast. Please have some."
