How to Tame a Villain Character-Chapter 35: Teenage Love Story

What did Harry do to openly humiliate Clarissa in front of so many people? Has Harry ever covered Clarissa in the past? However, based on Clarissa’s opinion about Harry, she actually thinks Harry is a good man.

Clarissa’s cheeks began to redden as she briefly remembered her past events with Harry. His gaze nervously looked into the eyes of his friend who couldn’t wait to hear his story.

"Claudia, I’m sorry. Don’t be jealous, listen to my story. "Actually, I once confessed my feelings to Harry."

It’s really unexpected. Claudia’s eyes widened and she wanted to burst out laughing because she didn’t expect her best friend to like a cold man who was indifferent to anyone. If she were Clarissa, she would definitely be very reluctant to do it.

"You really like my husband who is known as a cold and rigid man?" asked Claudia, holding back her laughter by covering her mouth.

"At that time he was not a cold man. Even though he looks very cruel from the outside, his heart is very kind. He once saved me when I was being bullied by a gang who hated me while in college."

*****

Seven years ago...

Almost every day Clarissa is bullied by a gang who always asks her for money to pay off their debts. Although most of the campus’ students are students from noble families, there are some students who are not from noble families. Especially during college, it was a time of financial crisis for the city of Edenburgh.

Clarissa was always forcibly dragged to the warehouse behind the campus. As a result of being asked to pawn money or jewelry every day, Clarissa didn’t dare bring her purse to campus and didn’t wear any jewelry. However, she brought no consequences, she was always beaten until her face was bruised.

If no one had helped her at that time, Clarissa would probably have died for real. Her face was covered in bruises, her hands and feet had many whip wounds. Her tears broke even more as she looked up at the blue sky. If only someone kindly saved her, she would return the favor to that person. freewebnøvel_com

This desperate prayer was unexpectedly answered. Harry’s figure with an angry face immediately punched the gang that was oppressing Clarissa one by one. Clarissa witnessed the action of her classmate who saved her at this time, making her cry even more. She didn’t cry because she was afraid of seeing Harry beat the gang until she was unconscious, but she was very happy that Harry was the hero who saved her in time.

After ensuring that the gang was helpless, Harry walked slowly over to Clarissa who was covered in bruises. His gaze was full of pity and his heart ached to see the wound on Clarissa’s beautiful face destroyed in an instant just because of human greed.

Spontaneously, he took out a handkerchief and then wiped the blood that was starting to dry on the corner of Clarissa’s lips. "Why do you let them always bother you?"

"I...."

"They know you are the daughter of President Howard, the richest noble family in this country. That’s why they won’t give up targeting you."

Clarissa shed more tears while hugging Harry’s very warm body. The warm body and fragrant scent of perfume made the curve of sweet lips etch onto her face again. "Thanks for saving me, Harry."

Harry looked away as he patted Clarissa’s back. "I was just carrying out my duties as your classmate. I hate seeing my friends hurt." A rough breath was emitted from his mouth. "I will report this to the dean so that the conspirators don’t dare step on this campus again."

Harry let go of the hug for a moment then picked up all of Clarissa’s books scattered on the floor. Patted the books covered in dust, then put them back into the backpack.

After tidying up all the books, Harry squatted down then helped Clarissa climb onto his back. Since then, Clarissa fell in love with Harry because his heart was actually soft and helpful. Harry even let Clarissa ride his back all the way to the campus health unit.

Harry didn’t serve Clarissa half-heartedly. He accompanied Clarissa to the campus health unit because he was worried that the gang would target Clarissa again. He sat on the bed next to Clarissa, then turned on an instrument on his cell phone.

"I will accompany you here. Don’t ever set foot out of this room until I give you permission!" Harry shouted while reading a textbook.

Clarissa laughed awkwardly as she stared at the charm of Harry’s handsome face, making her heart pound even more. "I will return the favor someday."

"No need. I don’t like accepting things from other people."

"But-"

"Go to sleep first. Your father is on his way here to take you home."

As time went by, Clarissa became friends with Harry during class. Sometimes they chat during break times, then every time there is a group assignment, Clarissa always invites Harry to be her teammate.

Because their relationship was quite close, Clarissa decided she wanted to confess her true feelings to Harry. Clarissa took Harry for a walk in the campus park during break time. Even though the park was quite busy with lots of people, Clarissa couldn’t hold it in any longer.

"Harry, do you remember I said I wanted to repay you for saving me that time?"

"Even though I told you, I don’t like accepting things from other people."

"If I gave my heart to you, would you accept it?"

Harry’s eyes widened. "You...."

"I like you, Harry."

Listening to the sudden expression of love from his classmate, Harry immediately looked away and put on a cold expression. "But I don’t like you, Clarissa. Forgive me."

Being immediately rejected in less than a minute, Clarissa felt her legs tremble slightly and started to become dazed. "I didn’t expect to be immediately rejected like this."

"Clarissa, do you know the true meaning of love?"

"What?"

"Love is not just you liking someone, because he is your hero. That means you idolize him."

"But, Harry–" When Clarissa wanted to take Harry’s hand, Harry accidentally slapped Clarissa’s hand away.

"I like other women."

This scene happened to be witnessed by their classmates. The students immediately started gossiping that Clarissa was so stupid that she confessed her love to a friend who had a truly cruel attitude, so she would definitely be rejected.
