No Substitutes for the Bigshots' Dream Girl Anymore!-Chapter 1923 Hayes Edwards Extra (80)

I don’t know if she really doesn’t understand, or if she’s just pretending.

The girl’s eyes were red with anger, and her friends quickly comforted her, "That’s just how Hayes Edwards is. I think he’s already being special to you. If it were another girl, he probably wouldn’t even bother talking."

Hearing these words, the girl seemed truly comforted.

A few days later, the girl finally mustered the courage to stop Hayes Edwards and confess her feelings.

She thought her own conditions weren’t bad, and she usually had many boys pursuing her and confessing to her. But she hadn’t agreed to any of them; she only had eyes for Hayes Edwards.

In the few seconds waiting for Hayes Edwards to respond, the girl’s heart raced.

But what she didn’t know was that because it was nighttime, Hayes couldn’t even see who she was, so his first words were, "Who are you, do we know each other?"

The girl was stunned, furious, and ran off crying, yelling as she went, "Hayes Edwards, I hate you!"

Hayes really didn’t know who she was and didn’t plan to interfere much. He pushed his bike out of the school gate and left.

The next afternoon, some cheerleader girls came to stand up for the girl from last night.

Hayes was shooting hoops, holding a basketball. When he wasn’t smiling, his eyes looked cold and wild, very aggressive.

Faced with the girls’ questioning, he lost his initial good temper and sneered, "Just because she likes me, I have to accept her?"

"Serena is so good; what part of her doesn’t match you? Do you know how many boys like her!"

Hayes raised his hand and casually made a three-pointer, smiling teasingly, "Just because everyone else likes her, I have to like her?"

The girl was choked with anger and couldn’t think of anything to say for a moment.

Hayes couldn’t be bothered to say more to them. He picked up his backpack thrown to the side and left the basketball court directly.

Not long after, the entire grade knew about Hayes Edwards rejecting the cheerleading captain, Serena Johnson.

Serena was considered a goddess in the hearts of many boys, so once this incident happened, it wasn’t long before boys wanted to stand up for their goddess.

On Saturday afternoon after school, Hayes Edwards was stopped by some people.

There were at least eight or nine of them, and Hayes was alone.

But the result was that all these boys missed Sunday night’s study session, for no other reason than having injuries on their faces and being afraid of embarrassment.

Hayes was injured too, with a band-aid on his forehead, but it didn’t affect his looks at all, instead adding a few wild streaks.

Father Edwards asked him what happened, and he just said he fell off his bike.

Mother Edwards, distressed over her son, took away Hayes’ bike keys, telling him to take the bus to school for the next few days.

Only Grace Winter saw something was off, "Hayes Edwards, did you really fall?"

Hayes stood under the neighborhood basketball hoop, catching the ball that bounced back after hitting the hoop, his voice lazy, "Otherwise?"

He looked down at the girl next to him, tugging at the corner of his lips with a smile.

Though the wound had faded, stretching it still hurt a bit.

Grace Winter looked up at him, hesitated for a moment, looked around, and seeing no one, she spoke softly again, "Hayes Edwards, tell me the truth, were you beaten up?"

Hayes: "..."

He almost laughed out of anger, ruffling Grace Winter’s hair with his hand, "What are you imagining? With my skills, who could beat me?"

Grace Winter looked at him, then at the basketball in his hands, still a bit uneasy.
