Chapter 226 Completely Doomed
Watching Roxy and Amy getting all cozy, Charles squinted, like he just figured something out.
With all that medical knowledge crammed in his head, he quickly diagnosed Roxy's condition.
Turned out, Roxy had congenital heart disease and, oh yeah, she was a lesbian. But guess what? Charles, the legendary healer, could fix both.
Yep, even if Roxy was into girls, he could "cure" that too! He had to get back those enhancement points he wasted on her.
"Roxy, let's hit the infirmary. You can't wait on this," said Charles.
"Okay!" Roxy agreed.
As Charles walked off with Roxy, Alice, Jessica, Snow, and Lori watched, their admiration for him growing. They all thought, 'This is the guy I like, he's amazing!'
Jessica muttered, "Is Charles even good at medicine? That's incredible!"
Jessica: Favorability +1
Current favorability: 99 points
'Simp target Jessica, favorability hits 99 points, reward enhancement points +10!
Current remaining enhancement points: 14 points.'
"Actually, I can tell, your thing with Charles isn't just simple, right? Do you like him?" Alice asked Jessica straight up.
No one was dumb here. Even if Charles played it cool, a woman's intuition was spot on.
"Yeah, I do like Charles, and he likes me too. He's done so much for me. You know how the Piano Prince got famous? At my birthday party, Charles played a piece just for me!" Jessica said proudly.
Alice responded promptly, "Well, let me tell you, Charles and I aren't just high school classmates. Back in high school, he took a beating for me. Recently, when my family's finances were in trouble, he helped us out. We've been close for at least five years, get it?"
Jessica and Alice started comparing notes.
Snow slapped her forehead, feeling a bit helpless. No matter how great a playboy was, he'd eventually hit a wall.
Hearing Alice's words, Jessica stepped back, her face pale. She finally got why Charles hadn't responded to her confession on Facebook. He still had a five-year-long thing for Alice.
"Jessica, you okay?" Lori supported Jessica, then glared at Alice. "Alice, don't be so smug. Are you claiming this five-year connection with Charles just to make Jessica back off? It's not gonna work. What's your deal with Charles? Is he your boyfriend? Do you know what Charles has done for Jessica?"
"He bought Jessica a huge mansion and gave her the world's number one crystal piano, worth five billion dollars. Can you top that?" As soon as she said this, Alice's face went pale too!
So, it was true. Charles really liked two people at the same time!
Alice felt a sharp pain in her chest. By now, she had truly fallen for Charles. How could she back off? No way!
Given Alice's personality, she'd never tolerate another woman in her boyfriend's heart. In the past, she would cut off ties with anyone without hesitation.
However, now she found herself unable to do so. Just the thought of severing connections with Charles caused a pang in her chest.
Alice retorted, "Is that all? Charles gave me a building, a Gold Trade Building worth 2.6 billion dollars, at Cultural Confluence Promenade, fully paid for, and the property rights are all mine. Who do you think he likes more?"
Hearing Alice's words, Snow, Jessica, and Lori were shocked!
"Actually, Charles gave me shares in Koi Tech worth a billion dollars. Jessica, I didn't mean to hide this from you. I once said I would never compete with you for Charles, and I would never like Charles. But I lied to you. That night at the Syeattel charity banquet, I got into Charles' cab, and we encountered robbers. Charles saved my life. I know I lied, I'm sorry, but I really did fall for Charles!" Snow lowered her head, revealing another secret.
For a moment, the four girls were all very surprised! Charles, that bastard, had so many things hidden from them?
Finally, the truth was out!
"One night, I asked Charles to watch 'Black Hawk Down' with me. We watched until 8 PM, and then he got a call from a guy and left. I always had my doubts!" Jessica said, her tone neutral but tinged with sadness.
"'Black Hawk Down'? So that's it. I wondered why he seemed so listless while watching the movie. On the same night, the same movie, I watched the 9 PM show with him!" Alice quickly connected the dots with Jessica's timeline.
So this man, he always liked multiple girls at the same time. So he really was a bastard!
"This scumbag, Jessica, let's go get revenge on him!" Lori said indignantly.
There was nothing left to explain. Charles, this beast, actually liked so many people at the same time, and if counting Lisa, Emily, and Pamela from before, he was simply a playboy.
"I want to ask you one last question," Alice stopped in front of Jessica and said.
"Go ahead, at this point, there's nothing left to hide!"
"Have you had sex with Charles?" Alice asked with a serious look.
"No, I haven't gotten to that point with him. So I want to ask you, have you had sex with Charles? After all, you went to a hotel after watching the movie," Jessica responded, turning the question back to Alice.
"No, my relationship with him is still pure to this day!"
At this point, they both seemed to relax, and then turned their gaze to Snow in union.
"Don't look at me, I definitely don't have that kind of relationship with him. I used to dislike him a lot. The reason my impression of him changed is that he is indeed very talented, and he saved my life that day!" Snow quickly explained.
For a moment, the scene returned to calm with the suffocating atmosphere.
The four girls had already added each other on Facebook. Even if the truth didn't come out today, it would inevitably come out in the future.
However, who said that once the truth was out, things couldn't continue?
Snow, Alice, and Jessica, upon learning that Charles hadn't had a sex with any of them. Strangely, their favorability didn't decrease.
Alice and Jessica's favorability had already risen to 99 points, infinitely close to full marks. Among boys, such favorability belonged to the ultimate simp level. For the girls, such favorability meant they already liked this man very much. Such feelings couldn't be cut off just like that.
As for Snow, she always knew Charles liked many girls, yet her favorability towards Charles remained at 96. Consequently, she wondered if she could become Charles' only girlfriend if it was discovered that Charles was dating multiple girls at the same time, and both Jessica and Alice gave up.
Alice took out her phone, ready to call Charles and loudly tell him, "Charles, we're breaking up. You've lost me because you betrayed our love!"
But as she was about to make the call, she suddenly froze!
It seemed she had never been with Charles, and they hadn't confirmed their relationship, no promises, no physical relationship. So did Charles count as her boyfriend?
Definitely not!
Then how could she call it "break up" since they hadn't been a couple?Should she first confirm the relationship with him, and then break up?
