Twinkling Star novel Chapter 11

The two were quarreling in the corridor. Afraid of affecting his image, Conor held Elizabeth’s hand and pulled her quickly downstairs to a street with few people.

There was only one lamp in the street. Under the dim light, pedestrians’ face could not been seen clearly.

Elizabeth shook off Conor's hand and stood by the wall without saying a word.

Conor put his hands in his trouser pockets, lowered his head, and sighed deeply, “Actually...I've always thought of you as my sister.”

“You didn’t say it before, and you now you said you take me as your sister?” Elizabeth asked hoarsely.

Conor frowned and answered impatiently, “Elizabeth, don't speak so badly! We were high school classmates and came from the countryside. However, I am an undergraduate with promising future, while you are just a junior college student, and you can only find a job with low income in the future. You gave me money for the past one year, because you wanted to invest in me so that I can marry you and take you to live in this big city when I am successful!”

“Is that the way you think of me?” Elizabeth looked at Conor in disbelief.

Conor lift his eyes to look at Elizabeth and said, “You are such a girl.”

“In that case, I want you to give me back all the money I have given you this year! Give it back to me with interest!” Elizabeth stretched out her hand and said angrily.

Conor glanced at Elizabeth, pressed his lips, and slightly turned sideways, “See! I am right, you are that kind of girl! Forget it, you are a girl from the countryside! You have no ambition but only money. I cannot help with that.”

“You...” Elizabeth raised her hand pointing at Conor's nose angrily, but she said nothing.

Conor took out a wallet from his trouser pocket, took out all the money in it, and stuffed it into Elizabeth’s hand pointing at his nose.

“Elizabeth, you are not good enough for me. Your identity, your education, your family are all not worthy of me. Besides, if I marry you, I not only need to support you, but also your stingy mom, handicapped dad, and even your worthless brother. In this way, I will be very tired in the future. Take this money as my compensation for you. When I graduate and get a good job, I'll pay you back with interest.”

Conor sighed, shaking his head.

Elizabeth threw the money at Conor’s face directly.

Conor was stunned, looking at Elizabeth. He was not angry because Elizabeth insulted him, but squatted down to pick up the money.

Elizabeth watched in amazement as Conor put the money he had picked up back into his wallet.

Conor spoke impatiently, “It is you don’t want the money. well, I was wrong first, and you should be angry.”

“Conor, we have been classmates in high school for three years and in a relationship for a year. I didn't expect you are dating two girls!” Elizabeth said with a crying voice.

She was in the work-study program and took care of him in every weekend, but he had another girlfriend and lived with her!

Conor glanced at Elizabeth and was silent for a moment. He didn't know what to say, so he turned and walked away silently.

He did not want to tangle with this woman.

Since she had known about the fact, they would have nothing to do with each other.

In fact, Elizabeth was more beautiful than Rachel, but Rachel had a rich family.
