The son of a richest man:Chapter 1: Five Million In The Account?Sunshire City.
A teenager dressed in a light blue shirt and worn-out jeans walked through the campus of Sunshire City University. His eyes frequently looking on the ground, as if searching for something.
The boy had decent looks, but his clothes seemed like they hadn't been washed in ages. The black stains on his cuffs were particularly noticeable. Passing students looked at him with disdain, avoiding him as if he were a plague.Brentley Carter seemed accustomed to these looks. With a calm expression, he headed towards a discarded water bottle by the roadside.
"Ring, ring!"
An old Nokia phone suddenly rang.
Brentley quickly took out his phone and answered the call.
"Hello?"
"Is this Brentley Carter, Young Master Carter?" A deep, steady voice of a middle-aged man came from the other end of the phone spoke without hurry.
"I'm Brentley Carter, but I'm not Youngster Carter..." Brentley replied, puzzled.
"Young Master Carter, there's an inheritance that you need to claim. Do you have time today?" The middle-aged man's tone was respectful.
"Heh, I have an inheritance to claim?" Brentley chuckled, his tone filled with helplessness. "Buddy, I think you have the wrong guy. My family is all gone. I'm an orphan. Where would I get an inheritance?"
"Young Master Carter, I..."
Brentley Carter didn't wait for the explanation and hung up the phone, shaking his head lightly. "These scammers are getting really idle. I don't even have fifty bucks on me, and they think they can trick me?aiming I have an inheritance? my parents have been dead for years..."
Just then, Brentley's phone rang again!
Without thinking, Brentley hit the reject button and walked towards a nearby water bottle. He was worried that if he delayed, the old man who collected recycled stuff at school might sn**ch it up.
"Snap!"
As Brentley bent down to pick up the bottle, a red high heel stepped on it.
Instinctively, Brentley paused and looked up along the slender, beautiful leg. What he saw was a tall, sexy girl with a stunning figure.The girl had light makeup on her delicate face, wore a black tight-fitting T-shirt that perfectly outlined her chest, and a black denim mini-skirt that hugged her shapely hips. Her long, fair legs ended in a pair of red high heels, making her look incredibly alluring.
"Ophelia, you... what are you doing here?"
Brentley's eyes flashed with surprise when he saw the girl.
The girl standing before him was none other than his girlfriend, Ophelia.
"Brentley, why are you picking up trash again? Do you really want to spend your life as a worthless trash picker?" Ophelia's pretty face turned cold, and she scoldedBrentley without any mercy, her brows furrowing deeply.
"I..." Brentley opened his mouth to explain.
"What's there to explain? Forget it. If you want to pick up trash, I can't stop you. But from today on, we're breaking up. I don't want someone like you to be a stain on my life," Ophelia shouted at Brentley with a look of utter disgust.
"Break up?" Brentley froze the moment he heard Ophelia's words, his eyes wide with shock.
"Ophelia, you can't be serious, right?" Brentley asked in a low voice, staring directly at Ophelia in front of him."Serious? Do you think I'd joke with someone like you?" Ophelia sneered.
"Why would you want to break up out of the blue?" Brentley finally realized that Ophelia wasn't joking; she was dead serious.
"Why? Because you're broke, just a poor guy who picks up trash!" Ophelia looked down at Brentley with disdain, giving him a once over before continuing, "Brentley, did you really think I wanted to be with you forever? Take a good look at yourself. Do you think you deserve me? You can't give me what I want!"
Brentley stared at Ophelia, his eyes empty. Deep down, he had already guessed the reason, but he couldn't accept that hisgirlfriend of nearly three years was leaving him over money.
"Brentley, I'm officially telling you now that we have no relationship from this moment on. I hope you don't bother me anymore!"
With that, Ophelia turned and started to walk away.
Brentley quickly stepped forward, trying to stop her, but just then, a young man emerged from behind Ophelia. He lifted his leg and kicked Brentley hard in the stomach.
"Colby?"
Brentley took two steps back, his eyes filled with shock as he looked at the young man beside Ophelia.Ophelia skillfully hooked her arm around Colby's, her voice dripping with sweetness. "Brentley, This is my new boyfriend, Colby! He's better looking than you, richer than you, and knows how to have fun. Only someone like him deserves me, Ophelia!"
Brentley stared at Colby. Although Colby was average-looking, he was a wealthy heir in their class. It was clear that Ophelia had left him for Colby because of his money.
"Brentley, from today on, Ophelia is my girlfriend. If I catch you bothering her again, I'll break one of your legs. Got it?"
Colby stepped forward, his tone arrogant as he addressed Brentley.
