Chapter 132: Flirting with a Muscle Mommy
After being discharged from the hospital, Emily was immediately by Chad’s parents, who apologized to her on behalf of their son. However, it was not that they were truly sorry for their son’s actions. But rather, their real intent was getting Emily to drop the charges against Chad.
Though there was a lengthy debate between Emily and Chad’s parents, they ended up guilt tripping her into doing what they wanted. Specifically, by saying that Emily was going to ruin Chad’s future simply because of a petty fight between the two of them.
Had Alex been there, he would have convinced the girl to stay strong, and continue on with the charges against Chad, who had assaulted her. But he was not, instead he was in bed with his mother, two sisters, and aunt.
Because of this, Chad was released from custody and was back on campus by the time Alex showed up. Normally he would be placed under academic probation, and kicked off the football team for doing something so scandalous. But an unknown party had paid off the university, and thus Chad walked around without consequences.
Well, that was not entirely true. His reputation had taken a serious hit, and Chad was no longer talked about as if he were a living legend. Instead, people began to whisper behind his back about what a piece of shit he was.
All of these things had happened so suddenly that when Alex showed up on campus, he was surprised that Emily was orbiting around him. She made sure that she was within a few meters of Alex at all times, other than her classes. And this forced Alex to speak up, entirely unaware that Chad had been released back into the wild.
“What the hell is up with you? You keep following me like a lost puppy. I know we talked things through yesterday, but honestly, you’re being a bit clingy....”
Emily looked at Alex as if he were an absolute idiot, before telling him why she was following him around campus.
“You didn’t hear? Chad has been released from custody... The charges were dropped against him, and the university was paid off by some unknown party. He’s walking around like an innocent man. Alex, I’m scared... If Chad is still pissed at me, he might do something worse next time...”
Alex scoffed when he heard this before wrapping his arm around Emily’s shoulders. He comforted her by telling the girl that there was no way Chad would try anything while he was around to protect her.
“If Chad is actually foolish enough to attack you after everything that had happened, then it will be the last thing that idiot ever does. Trust me, I’ll bury his corpse in the fucking desert if he lays a hand on you again...”
Emily giggled when she heard this, she thought that Alex was joking. But if she knew that Alex had already killed people and had no qualms about doing so again, perhaps she would have taken his threat more seriously.
Thus, Alex kept a watchful eye on Emily throughout the school day, deterring Chad from approaching her. And though he was able to walk her between classes, and spend lunch with the girl. Emily was alone in all of her classes and felt an intense sense of anxiety without Alex being around to protect her.
So much so that she asked the man to drive her home after all her classes were over. Which he did so, despite the girl’s home being out of the way of his actual destination. Once the two of them were at the entrance of her door. Emily thanked Alex for looking after her.
“Alex... I wanted to say, well... I just wanted to say thanks. I know you didn’t have to do all of this, but thanks to you, Chad didn’t even try approaching me today. I honestly don’t think I could deal with him, after what happened, and after his parents’ guilt tripped me into dropping the charges.”
Despite the fact that Alex was furious at Chad and his good-for-nothing parents, he simply forced himself to smile, as he petted Emily’s blue/black hair, and assured her he was happy to help.
“It was nothing. That’s what friends are for, right? Anyway, I’ve got to get to the gym. So stay safe, Emily. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
After saying this, Alex got in his car and watched as Emily entered her home safely, before driving off to the gym. Where he saw a message appear in his sight.
[Emily feels safe around you!]
[+5 Affection from Emily!]
[Emily’s Affection: 50/100]
Despite this good news, Alex wasn’t too excited. Emily was the long con, and there were still the matters of Vanessa, and the other heroines in America for him to worry about. Alex genuinely did not know if Chad had even met the unknown heroines yet, and what his status was with them.
What he did know was that he had thoroughly sabotaged Chad’s chances of getting back together with Emily, and thus he would take the slow approach to conquering her. After all, he intended to make the girl understand the misery he felt by being in the friend zone for years on end. And it was only after Emily truly understand his pain that he would finally accept her as his woman.
As for Jade, she was already conquered. It was just a matter of sealing the deal and claiming the reward. But with a girl like Jade who was mentally broken, the last thing she needed right now was for Alex to pressure her into sex.
But knowing that Alex was about to get himself in serious legal trouble, so much so that his entire future would be ruined, Vanessa was forced to interfere. Thus, she decided to take a stand and prevent the dumb kid from getting himself into trouble.
“Alex... Let me handle Chad. I’ll whoop his ass during our next session and teach him a proper lesson. I know you’re worried about your friend, but you shouldn’t get carried away. If you do end up killing Chad, it could ruin your future. Please, promise me you won’t do anything rash!”
Alex sighed heavily, as he promised Vanessa that he wouldn’t murder Chad, even if he was given a chance to do so.
“Sorry Nessa, I got ahead of myself... Yeah, you’re probably right. It’s best that you handle this, since you are not his arch rival like I am. I swear I won’t murder the asshole, even if he gives me a proper reason to—”
Nessa sighed in relief as she heard these words, before shaking her head and commenting on Alex’s bloodlust.
“Seriously Alex, keep that violent nature of yours in the cage where it belongs! We do not need you causing trouble and ruining your career because of some petty bullshit outside of the cage!”
Despite lecturing the man, her affection points increased. Which Alex immediately noticed.
[Vanessa likes your protective nature!]
[+4 Affection from Vanessa!]
[Vanessa’s Affection: 10/100]
After seeing this, Alex smirked and nodded his head. Before telling the woman how right she was. After all, women always loved being told they were right, even if they were usually wrong about everything.
“You’re right, Nessa. Thank you for your insight. Without your words of wisdom, I might have gotten ahead of myself and done something incredibly foolish. I’m lucky to have you as my mentor....”
Alex’s words had the exact effect that he intended them to have. The mature Brazilian beauty suddenly broke out into a cheerful smile and slapped Alex on the ass again before asking him out to drinks for the second time since he had met her.
“That’s the spirit! Alright rich boy, aren’t you going to take pity on your beautiful manager, and pay for her drinks?”
The absolute shamelessness of this woman was actually refreshing to Alex, causing him to break out into genuine laughter as he shook his head, before confirming that he would indeed pay for her drinks.
“And people have the nerve to call me shameless? Alright fine Nessa, I’ll pay for your drinks....”
Nessa responded to this by wrapping her arm around Alex’s head and giving him a nuggie, almost as if she was playfully bullying him.
“That’s my good boy! Alright, I’m going to hit the showers, and you should do the same. How about we meet up in the parking lot once we’re done?”
Alex allowed the woman to be playful with him to her heart’s content, before nodding his head and saying the words that he knew would piss the woman off.
“Alright, sounds like a date!”
The beautiful Brazilian muscle mommy knew Alex was just playing with her, but she couldn’t help but snap at him before running off to the showers, not leaving him a chance to respond.
“It’s not a date!”
Though Nessa didn’t notice it, Alex stared at the woman’s well toned ass as she ran off while wearing nothing but a sports bra, and some spats. Once she was out of earshot, he shook his head, and smirked before expressing his thoughts aloud.
“God damn, that woman has a nice ass....”
