Reincarnated As the Enemy's Wife: Married the Rival, Bound by Revenge-Chapter 246: Do Not Look Down upon Me

To be honest, she didn’t know how much she owed to him.

Although the tuition fees of Nord School could be found online, those fees were just the basics.

For many years, she went to school there, her food, clothes, even her piano, were all supported by him in all kinds of ways.

She didn’t notice at the time, but now she did.

It was really not a small amount of money.

Especially the piano he gave her seemed to be enough to buy a house in Hiltonan.

She pursed her lips and handed up an envelope filled with a thick stack of cash on the table in front of Nicholas.

The man watched her put the money down, but his eyes were never on the envelope.

Suddenly, a mysterious smile appeared on his lips. "I don’t take money from women," "- not even from a girl."

"You don’t have to treat me like a woman." After all, she lived a tough life earning money just like a man.

She had delivered packages and food, and had done many kinds of jobs.

"Compared to your peers, it is not easy for you to make so much money in a year, but this is earned by working six jobs at the same time. There is no technical content, so I am not interested."

Eva did make a lot of money. After all, she bought her own cello, but it cost her a lot.

She got few hundreds of dollars for one part-time job a month, she saved all this money by doing six jobs for a whole year.

But this year, she didn’t have any other money left, and she became thin and weak.

"Don’t forget the bragging words you made a year ago," said Nicholas. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Of course I don’t."

"I remember every word I said in front of people that day." She bit her lip.

He took a puff on his cigar and smiled, "Ethan is now the president of the Student Union for Angria in the best business school in Arcus,

"The students around him are all elites from all over the world, and they have also started some projects of a hundred million dollars from the Brown family, what do you do?"

"Working part-time day and night?"

Eva bit her lip.

She knew that it was useless to work part-time if she wanted to surpass Ethan.

Her specialty was music.

The best way was to use music to prove it.

However, in order to win this game without Nicholas’s help, she gave up on piano where she had already made some achievements a year ago. Instead, she bought a cell with her own money and started from zero.

But these required money.

If she didn’t work, how could she learn the cello? How could she buy a cello?

So now the only thing she could do was to do these jobs.

She said, "Although I’m working part-time now, I won’t be doing it all my life."

"I will learn the cello well, too."

Hearing what she said, Nicholas smiled and dropped a little cigarette ashes. He said indifferently,

"To be honest, when I heard that you switched to the cello, I was quite surprised.

"You do have a backbone, but you may not know that being too spineless is not a good thing in this society.

"When a person has backbone and no strength, he or she will be put in an awkward position, for example, now you just hang out with a bunch of college students." said the man while he took a sip of wine calmly.

What Ethan was doing was beyond the imagination of her peers.

But she was still goofing off with people like Hailey.

"I wonder that after a year, what surprises would you give me. Now it’s only been more than a year time left since the day you made the bet. But now, you seem to be left far behind."

...

The man’s slow words made the girl’s nails sink deeply into her flesh. How could she not know?

If she played the piano all the time, maybe she was as accomplished as Ethan Brown.

If she continued to play the piano and won awards, then the people she contacted would be top around the world. If she went along this way, she could be something more than Ethan.

However, if she wanted to succeed by her own hand instead of his charity, she had to start over.

Otherwise, no matter how well she played the piano, others would think that she had learned it with money from Nicholas Brown.

"I will do it." said she.

Eva turned pale, but her back was straight and her voice was loud.

"In this world, who hasn’t had a bad time? Don’t you have a bad time, Mr. Brown? "

"I believe that even if you are successful now, there must be hard times."

"So, Mr. Brown,

"Do not look down upon me."

Did not look down upon her.

When he heard this, his eyes became dark.

But he still looked that way, making it hard to see what he was thinking.

Many years ago, there was a young man, facing him, shouting the same words - do not look up on me.

That young man was himself.

Eva would never know that his hard times were a hundred times worse than hers...

Only that was a long time ago.

Right now, he was a man with power and property.

...

The man put down his cigar and wine glass.

He stood up from the sofa, showing his well-shaped body. He was a head taller than Eva.

"You want to surpass Ethan, in fact, there is a good way."

"What is that?"

"Seduce me."

Two words came out, Eva stepped back!

She thought she had misheard. At that moment, her face turned pale.

Soon, she shifted her gaze.

"I’m... not interested."

Perhaps she was oppressed by the man in front of her, making her heart beat fast.

It was weird that she had never spoken to Ethan Brown alone when she came back from Nord School, but this was the second time she had met Nicolas face to face.

Both times they met, including when she first met him at the orphanage when he was fourteen years old, she felt that this man was so successful and restrained.

He was always like this, domineering, dark, but strong.

He was also aggressive.

It really shocked her to hear such a thing.

Eva could not tell what this aggression was like, but she felt her heart beating faster and faster.

"Is that so?"

The man lifted his lips.

"I’m not interested in little girls like you, either."

His tone was cold, but when he spoke of the words "little girls", he deliberately emphasized them.

A strong sense of threat made her very uncomfortable.

This man was too aggressive, too dangerous.

This feeling was completely different from what she had for Ethan in the past.

She stepped back and was about to leave the room.

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded at the door.

"Eva?"

It was Ralph Cobb.

He finally came back after the phone call.

When he returned to their box next door, everyone was in a bad mood, as if they had a conflict.

So he hurried over and saw that Eva was here.

"Who is this?"

...

As Ralph Cobb saw the man in the room, he was shocked by his aura!

Ralph was also from one of the big families in Hiltonan. He knew all celebrities in the city,

but he had never seen this man before.

"This is... "

Ever since he appeared, Nicholas had seen the way he looked at Eva.

Nicholas smiled, "Your boyfriend?"

"No... no, he’s not."

She narrowed her eyebrows.

"Good." He was pointed.

Eva stayed silent.

"Sir, may I ask what is this for?"

He hadn’t show his feelings to Eva, he even hadn’t made up his mind,

But this man was satisfied because he was not Eva’s boyfriend. What did that mean?

Was he despising him?

"It doesn’t mean anything, just she is special."

Eva was unpleasant, "What do you mean by special?"

Nicholas smiled but said nothing.

This smile was inscrutable.

In Eva’s eyes, he was mocking at her.

He mocked her poverty, her jobs, her lack of time to date due to hard working.

Once she thought of this, the arrogant girl felt bad.

Ralph didn’t understand what he meant, but he thought the man was strange. After he left, Ralph asked, "Who is this man? Some close friend to you?"

Eva sneered and did not answer. But she said something else. "Can I not attend these departmental gatherings in the future?" "Ah this... is your freedom!"

"Sorry, I had something urgent just now... Who did this to you?"

"Ha."

When she thought of Hailey and the others, she even didn’t want to say a word. She sneered and walked away.

At the door of the club.

In a dark black car of tens of millions.

The assistant sat in the front and waited.

He dared not to drive without Nicholas’s permission.

After a long time, the assistant saw a woman in black walking out of the door. She didn’t look good, but she didn’t stand here to take a taxi. Instead, she held the backpack in her hand tight, clenched her teeth and strode in one direction.

"She’s really crazy."

The man who had been silent suddenly spoke.

The assistant was curious, "Mr. Brown... you mean the female student just now?"

"Yes."

"This... is the one who made trouble at the banquet, she seems to be the sister you adopted in the orphanage? Is it the little girl you sponsor? "

Usually, Mr. Brown didn’t like to meddle.

However, today, Mr. Brown not only asked him to go to the next room to check on the situation, but even turned off his schedule. Now he was sitting in the car for ten minutes, just to wait for her to come out and take a look at her.

This was abnormal.

"Yes." Nicholas did not deny it.

"There’s no bus at this time, she is reluctant to take a taxi and ready to walk back. Is she really that short of money?"

She was crazy for sure.

"This... Mr. Brown, in fact, there are a lot of employees in our company who work at night, save money to buy a bike or ride an electric bicycle."

<The implication was that everyone was short of money. Except you.

<Every time there were so many people waiting for the bus at the door, you never cared!>

"Really?" asked Nicholas, deep in though.

"Then from today, add one more benefit to the company.

"All employees, as long as they take a taxi after working overtime at ten o’clock in the evening, all taxi fees will be reimbursed."
