My Girlfriend Pretended to Be Poor and Cheated, Saying It Was a Test
Chapter 2
I still vividly remember the scene of catching them in the act from my previous life. Chris was lounging on the sofa, enjoying himself, while Mya had her arms around Chris' neck, actively swaying her body.
They were kissing passionately.
The saliva was even stretching!
I stormed in angrily, but Chris showed no guilt. Instead, he laughed provocatively, seeming to mock my incompetence.
Mya, on the other hand, was completely indifferent. She slowly put on her clothes, lit a cigarette, poured a glass of red wine, and arrogantly looked at me, saying, "I was just testing you.
"If you love me, you should tolerate all my flaws. If you can't handle this small test, you're not worthy of being my boyfriend.
"Someone like you is such a waste. I could just snap my fingers, and a whole team of pursuers would circle the Earth three times."
I angrily rushed forward to hit them, but the bodyguards who had come running dragged me out forcefully.
The wicked Abel pressed a lit cigarette against my face.
Mya and Chris just stood there coldly, watching, not saying a word in my defense.
That was when I finally understood what it meant to invite a wolf into the house.
"Jimmy, what nonsense are you spouting?"
"I'm just thinking about your marriage. After all, you're not getting any younger, and the family is pushing hard."
Chris quickly denied it.
The word "coward" almost slipped out of my mouth, but I quickly realized that I couldn't cause too much of a scene. Otherwise, if we completely fall out, how will I make them suffer like I did in my past life?
So, I swallowed my anger and changed my tone, saying, "Do you think it's your place to comment on my business? You're an unemployed freeloader, living in my house, waiting to be fed, and you still have the nerve to criticize me?
"You've been living here for more than half a year. Have you spent a single cent? If you had even bought groceries once, I wouldn't be so hard on you."
Chris' face immediately flushed red, and he stood there with his mouth open, unsure of what to say.
"Jimmy, that's enough.
"Finding a job is hard these days. He just graduated from college, and he's your relative, so why are you being so harsh?"
Mya, as if not catching the hidden meaning in my words, had the nerve to defend Chris.
Chris, touched to his core, gazed at Mya with adoration in his eyes.
What a pair of disgusting, mutually supportive scumbags!
Though I cursed them in my heart, on the surface, I sighed with a look of sorrow and said, "Mya, I'm doing this for our own good. It's true that finding a job is tough right now. I just got laid off today, so I'm really anxious.
"When Chris came here, he brought tens of thousands of dollars from home. That's why I have an issue. I just want him to pitch in a bit to help out; that's not unreasonable, right?"
Hearing this, Mya turned to Chris and said, "Give the money now. I'll pay you back later."
She was confident, as her parents were well-known in the area and owned two publicly listed companies—they didn't lack money.
The reason she was with me was nothing more than to treat it as a game. Once she got bored, she'd find someone like me, a gullible fool, to take over.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. I wished I could throw Mya into the sea and feed her to the fish.
Chris obediently handed over 20,000 dollars.
I barely contained my smile as I accepted the transfer, and then Mya received a phone call.
Based on my memories from the past, this was the part where the scoundrel Abel would come to collect his debts.
I pretended to know nothing, ready to play along.
Acting?
They really think I can't do that?
