Love Began with the First Meeting -
Chapter 1218 Extra Story 108 Of Charlie Quiet Misery's Identity
"Can I come with you?" Elsa asked, her face covered in gloom.
Charlie shook his head and said softly, "Wait for me here. I won't let Quintin hurt you..." Charlie paused and then continued, "Most importantly, Olivia needs you here."
Elsa's eyes brimmed with tears and she nodded. "Please take your cellphone with you."
Charlie laughed. "Didn't you already ask Evelyn to get it for me? Don't worry. Go back to the dormitory. Call me or text me if there's any emergency." Elsa nodded slowly. "I will. Take care of yourself."
"I'll pick you up for breakfast tomorrow morning. Sound good?" Charlie asked with a warm smile.
Elsa nodded again with a faint smile on her lips. Charlie said his goodbye and signaled her to go back to her dormitory. After he was sure that she was inside and had closed the door, he turned and walked downstairs. After greeting the dorm keeper curtly, he went to Ezra's car parked outside.
Evelyn was waiting with his cell phone in her hand. She told Charlie that she wanted to go with him to replace Quintin, but Charlie refused bluntly. He told her that it was between Quintin and him, and that no one else needed to interfere, including her.
Evelyn was a reasonable girl. Although she was worried about Charlie, she knew that it was best to leave it to the men. "Fine. Take care. Promise me..." Evelyn pressed her lips together into a thin line and blinked her big eyes with an innocent look. Ezra gazed at Evelyn. He realized that the reason why he had fallen in love with this girl was only because of those cute innocent expressions. No one could deny that Evelyn was a tough woman, but sometimes she was so gentle. Ezra broke into a smile seeing her expression at that moment.
Charlie nodded his head, understanding what she meant and then left with Ezra. Evelyn watched the car disappear out of her sight and then went back to the dormitory with a heavy heart.
Bess didn't come back to the dormitory because she had to drive Quintin home. So, Evelyn sat in front of her computer to play Dragon. She had been playing for so long that she had to take an elixir because her blood was running out. Evelyn was annoyed and upset. So, all she wanted to do was kill some time. She didn't use her first-class equipment. Instead, she used the wooden sword that she had picked up from the new players village which she had kept in her armory all this time. With no enthusiasm whatsoever, she fought against the big boss with only the wooden sword. Blood level of the boss sometimes reduced. At other times, a red 'miss' was displayed on the screen.
[Present] Wind: What's wrong with Legendary Past?
[Present] Cherry Blossoms Rain In Paris: It would take several days to kill the big boss if this continues...
[Present] Hibiscus Brother In Law: Alas, now the relationship between all the characters is clear, and there is nothing to gossip about. It's so boring.
[Present] Sister Feng's Ancestor: That's all right. You can just go ahead and establish an abnormal relationship with some player. I bet you can become a celebrity overnight.
[Present] Hibiscus Brother In Law: Fuck off! I'm not looking for trouble. Besides, I'm no match for Legendary Past.
[Present] Cherry Blossoms Rain In Paris: ......
Evelyn was originally in a bad mood, and she was even more annoyed by the gossips in the present channel.
[Present] Legendary Past: Fuck off if you don't want to be killed. You all have three seconds.
[Present] Sister Feng's Ancestor: What? Three seconds is not enough to sing a song, Goddess Legendary Past.
[Present] Legendary Past: Then, you are left with no other choice. Disappear.
The wooden sword in her hand was immediately replaced by the Dark Wizard's magic wand. A dark blue light appeared at the tip of the wand, forming a powerful air shield in an instant. A horrifying music started playing as she waved her wand. Boom! The big boss fell to the ground and all the other players also fell one by one.
[Present] Hibiscus Brother In Law: Thank you, Goddess... It is so comfortable lying on this cold ground.
Evelyn rolled her eyes and went back to the city. She hung around the Dragon City for a while, sorted out everything she had gained by defeating the Boss and then sold it on her other game account. She shut down her system after a while and went for a bath. She lay in bed, rolling left and right, unable to sleep.
Finally, she grabbed her phone and dialed Bess' number.
"Hello?" Bess answered the phone in a sleepy voice. "Hello, Evelyn? What's wrong?"
Evelyn rolled her eyes and answered, "What's wrong? Come on! I'm itching to know what's going on."
Bess rubbed her eyes and sat up. She turned on the bedside lamp and looked at the time before saying helplessly, "It's past three o'clock at night! Why aren't you asleep?" "It had been quite some time since Charlie went to look for Quintin. How do you think it's going between them?" Evelyn asked in a concerned tone. Bess knew that she had to answer Evelyn's questions with patience, so she got up to pour herself a glass of water to moisten her throat. "I don't know the specifics. I only know that they are in some bar right now. Ezra didn't want to accompany them, so he left. But Shaun is with them."
Evelyn knitted her eyebrows and questioned, "Is that all?"
"Yes, that is all." Bess heaved a sigh and then continued, "Come on. This whole thing is not that serious. Quintin just wanted to talk to Charlie. There is some sort of misunderstanding between them."
"You're so stingy," Evelyn sniffed coldly and said, "All right, go to bed." She hung up before Bess could say goodbye to her.
Unlike Bess, Evelyn did not believe that Quintin and Charlie could settle their differences that easily. She had been with Charlie during that adventure when he had met Quintin. Evelyn knew that Quintin was both insidious and vengeful. Charlie had messed up his relationship. There was no way that Quintin came all the way to A City just to exchange words with him.
Evelyn's doubts were on the dot.
After a few drinks, Charlie and Quintin began to quarrel and even exchanged severe blows.
Shaun left them alone and drank his beer calmly. After a while, he noticed that their wounds were bleeding again. Shaking his head and sighing helplessly, he walked to them and pulled them apart. "That's enough. Stop!" Shaun yelled. "How can you be so impulsive? You are both so calm while dealing with business, aren't you? What's the matter with you today?"
Shaun had finally figured out the whole story that night. But in the end, he still wondered why Quintin was so angry with Charlie. Was it because Charlie had screwed up Quintin's relationship?
One thing was clear to him after watching them quarrel. They were too similar in character.
Charlie wiped the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth. Then he glared at Quintin, who was more seriously injured than him. He asked in a cold voice, "Do you want to continue?"
Quintin showed no emotions on his cold face. Glancing coldly at Charlie, he pulled up a chair which had fallen to the ground during their fight, and sat on it. He looked at the frightened waiter hiding behind the bar and said, "Get me some beer!"
The waiter came with a dozen beers, his hands shivering. Meanwhile, Charlie had found a chair and sat down. "Some ice, please." He touched his injured face and muttered, "Damn it! How can I supposed to meet my classmates tomorrow with this face?"
Shaun burst out laughing. "That's all right. Elsa will be heartbroken when she sees that you hurt so badly. This is an opportunity for you to get closer to her."
Charlie made a disgusted face at Shaun, and then turned towards Quintin. "This is the last time. If you do something like this again, then we are not friends anymore. Don't blame me for my indifference when that happens."
Quintin picked up a can of beer and threw it to Charlie. He opened a beer for himself, took a sip and said slowly, "I miss her so much. But I cannot go see her."
"So you fucking come to me?" Charlie was annoyed. "Are you a man or not? How could you have such nasty ideas about Olivia? Is this the way you want to show your charm? Or are you trying to prove that you are a total jerk?" Charlie gave it to his face, without considering whether his words would hurt Quintin or not.
Quintin lowered his eyes in frustration. He grabbed his beer, and drank it all in one breath. "If she hadn't met me at that time, she would have been in big trouble," Quintin explained, glaring at Charlie.
"That's true, Charlie," Shaun said. "Someone pretended to be Quiet Misery and used it as an excuse to ask Olivia out. It's such a coincidence that Quintin was there when she arrived, or Olivia would have been in real danger."
"I will investigate that." Charlie took a sip of his beer. As the liquor touched the wound on his mouth, he gasped in pain. "When are you planning to leave?"
"After I'm done laughing at you," Quintin answered smugly.
Charlie had been trying so hard to calm down his anger. But he was irritated once again. "Do you want to fight again?"
Quintin sneered, "Which one of us do you think is stronger, huh?"
"Shall we make sure?"
"Yeah, let's."
"Stop it! No more fighting!" Shaun said, then he looked at Charlie with a grim face. Shaun knew Quintin very well. Even if Charlie defeated Quintin, he would have a tough time with Quintin.
Charlie did not say anything more, nor did Quintin. They drank quietly.
Men could also be vulnerable creatures. Quintin was trained to be a killing machine. He wanted to replace out who had killed his master. Although he was very hurt, he still pretended to be strong to cover up his fragility. Fighting with Charlie was just one way for him to vent his anger.
Charlie knew that, of course. That's why he tried hard to stay calm. He had always been a very patient person, but somehow, he would always lose control every time he met Quintin.
Charlie drank the rest of his beer and stood up. "I'm going back to school. If you really love her, then show her that you are sincere." With that, he turned around and walked to the exit. Just as he reached the door, he paused and said slowly, "Quintin, she hasn't really left you." Then he opened the glass door and walked out the bar, leaving Shaun and Quintin behind to decipher the meaning behind his words. 00000000000
