Chapter 111 I Disagree!
[Fight! Get fired up!]
[Do you know Charles? Is he really that handsome? Why are there so many posts about him lately?]
[Support the fight! Keyboard Warrior must delete the post and apologize!]
Charles glanced at the comments. There were already over 999.
This post wasn't just made today; it was from yesterday but only went viral on the campus forum today, getting pinned to the top.
Besides this post, there were others like [Charles takes on twenty, shocking Lacus Magnus University!], [Charles steals the track team captain Leo's girlfriend], and a bunch of other posts.
Charles felt a bit emotional. Although he never cared about the crazy talk on the campus forum, nor did he mind the online attacks and insults, he was grateful that Pamela stood up for him and fought the Keyboard Warrior.
But Charles had always seen Pamela as just a tool!
When they first met, Charles approached Pamela with the intention of securing Special Funds, and the interaction wasn't pleasant. Pamela even looked down on him.
Using his financial resources, he gradually increased Pamela's affection until he successfully pulled off a Role Reversal.
But a tool was just a tool. Charles was never emotionally engaged with Pamela.
'It is all a financial transaction: I spend money, you help me complete tasks! How harmonious and friendly! But now you've changed. You don't want money anymore; you want my heart? That's impossible,' Charles thought.
Pamela's actions were meant to move Charles on purpose, which he saw right through.
She knew very well that she couldn't compete with Jessica in terms of looks, temperament, or reputation. So, to compete with Jessica, she had to show some genuine effort.
And Pamela didn't foolishly act like a simp, hanging around Charles all day and annoying him.
Instead, she chose to fight the Keyboard Warrior online, publicly defending Charles's reputation.
She never mentioned this action to Charles on Facebook, but it was obvious that Charles would see the post sooner or later.
When Charles saw the post, he would be even more moved, seeing Pamela as someone who sacrifices for love without expecting anything in return!
A high-level emotional manipulator indeed had skills!
Even if Charles saw through Pamela's tactics, he couldn't dislike her because she genuinely helped him!
You couldn't be ungrateful and guard against someone who helped you, right?
Charles thought for a moment, exited the campus forum, and sent Pamela a message.
Charles: [I saw your post fighting the Keyboard Warrior, thank you!]
Charles sent this message just to be polite.
Pamela quickly replied: [You're welcome, Charles. You've helped me so much; I just did something within my ability, it's nothing! By the way, Charles, I wanted to ask if you're free to watch a movie tomorrow?]
Charles: [Uh, I have something to do tomorrow, maybe next time!]
Charles politely declined, thinking, 'I can't spend the day celebrating Jessica's birthday and then go to a movie with Pamela in the evening. Since Jessica and Pamela know each other, I shouldn't date both of them on the same day.'
Pamela: [Alright then, I heard tomorrow is Jessica's birthday, and she invited many people from the student council, even Snow!]
Pamela felt a bit jealous but didn't blame Charles. She knew Charles would definitely go to Jessica's birthday, and there was no stopping him. So, she decided to take it easy.
"Snow?" At the mention of this name, Charles suddenly remembered.
Lacus Magnus University's first Prom Queen, student council president, and senior.
About eighty percent of the students at the school had heard of her, but few had actually seen her, including Charles.
He had heard the title of the first Prom Queen for three years, yet as someone who was about to graduate, he hadn't seen her even once.
Who gave her this title anyway? It was so hyped up!
They said those who saw her were amazed! Many of Jessica's supporters were unconvinced. They tried every way to see Snow, and those who did see her somehow all switched sides!
Charles never believed such rumors. 'Jessica is already so beautiful. She's even more beautiful than Jessica? Isn't she on the same level as Alice? Is she also a girl with a rating of over 9? One in a million?'
If that were true, Charles thought he might consider becoming Snow's simp.
Of course, thinking so much now was useless. It might be someone exaggerating.
The higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment. After seeing Alice, Charles hadn't found anyone more beautiful.
Even top celebrities might not surpass Alice in looks.
Just as he returned to his dorm, his mentor, William Garcia, called.
"Charles, why have you been skipping classes so often lately? Don't you want your credits? Don't you want to graduate? Or are you planning to retake courses? Do you know you've already failed several exams?" Garcia scolded him harshly.
"I'm sorry, Garcia. I've had a lot going on recently, so I had to skip classes. Don't worry, I'll make up for the failed subjects."
"Enough with the excuses. I know you've become an internet celebrity lately. Don't think that being famous means you can skip classes. By the way, the School of Physical Education's track team coaches, Coach Young and Coach Kim, think highly of you and plan to make an exception to let you join the track team. They've already reported this to the school leadership, and the leadership agreed. Be prepared to start training with the track team next week. The track and field meet is coming up, and Coach Young and Coach Kim strongly recommend you represent our school in the league! If you can win a gold medal for our school, you'll have a chance to be on the campus top ten influential list, which will be recorded in the school's history. Your file will be completely different from ordinary students! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, cherish it, understand?"
Listening to Garcia's long speech, Charles showed a hint of difficulty on his face.
"But Garcia, I'm a liberal arts student. My dream is to write novels and become a great writer, not an athlete." Charles said.
"Enough with the excuses. Your writing skills aren't good enough to be a great writer. I don't want to discourage you, but you should focus on your talents. I've already agreed with Coach Kim. That's it!"
"Hello...? Garcia? I don't agree!"
