I Inherit Millions Out Of Nowhere

Chapter 8: Brentley's Payback



"Uh..." Brentley was taken aback by Felicity's request and replied helplessly, "Well, my phone doesn't have WeChat. I'll add you tomorrow after I get a new phone."

"Alright then," Felicity nodded, not pressing the issue further.

Brentley quickly turned and headed out of the hotel. Graham and Tyree watched Brentley's back with a hint of confusion in their eyes.

Although Brentley had explained that he won the lottery, both of them could sense that the current Brentley Carter seemed like a completely different person from the one they knew before.

Meanwhile, Colby was in the private room, frantically calling all his friends, but none of them could lend him any money.

The restaurant manager, seeing that Colby had no money, had the security guards block the students inside the private room. If Colby didn't settle the bill, no one would be allowed to leave.

"Honey, you need to think of something fast!" Ophelia said anxiously to Colby as she saw the security guards blocking the room.

"I'll call my dad and ask him to send me some money!" Colby replied, his tone filled with frustration. He never imagined that things would turn out this way, and now he felt utterly humiliated in front of his classmates.

"I need to use the restroom!" Ophelia said, getting up and heading towards the door.

"I'll go too..." Farrah and Taylor quickly followed, seemingly afraid that Colby might ask them for money, and they both left the room.

In the restroom, Farrah took out her makeup and started touching up in front of the mirror.

"Ophelia, Farrah, don't you think Brentley seems like a completely different person now? He actually spent $9,000 to treat everyone to dinner. It's unbelievable!" Taylor said softly while washing her hands.

"Spending $9,000 doesn't change the fact that he's just a trash collector. He's only doing this to show off in front of Ophelia because she dumped him. There's nothing strange about it!" Farrah replied disdainfully.

"Brentley, that loser. I must have been blind to date him in the first place. Now that I think about it, I really regret it. Spending his entire year's living expenses on dinner, he might be generous today, but what about the future? I really don't know what goes on in Brentley's head!" Ophelia said, pouting.

"Yeah, he's just trying to put on a show," Taylor nodded lightly.

*Smack!*

At that moment, a blond young man reached out and slapped Ophelia on the butt, grinning as he asked, "Hey gorgeous, how about joining us for a couple of drinks?"

Ophelia was dressed very provocatively today, enough to catch the eye of any normal guy. After being slapped, Ophelia immediately turned around and slapped the guy across the face, her big, watery eyes glaring as she shouted, "Do you even know who you are? Do you think you're worthy of buying me a drink?"

Ever since she started dating Colby, Ophelia's temper had become quite fiery. Plus, the incident with Brentley earlier today had left her in a foul mood. So when someone came looking for trouble, Ophelia wasn't about to hold back.

The young man was stunned for a moment after being slapped, then he gritted his teeth and yelled, "You bitch, how dare you hit me?"

"Ah!" Before he could finish his sentence, he let out a scream and slowly crouched down, clutching his groin.

Ophelia had taken advantage of his distraction to kick him in the crotch with her high heel.

"Next time, watch yourself. Not everyone is someone you can mess with!" Ophelia shouted coldly, then walked out of the restroom without looking back.

"Stupid loser, thinking he can buy our Ophelia a drink. Just as disgusting as Brentley!" Farrah sneered at the young man with disdain before following Ophelia out of the restroom.

"You three, just wait!" The blond young man crouched on the ground, his face twisted in pain as he shouted.

Ophelia, Farrah, and Taylor didn't take the young man's words seriously and went straight back to their private room.

Once inside, Ophelia noticed that Colby was on the phone with his dad, and she could faintly hear his father's angry scolding. The atmosphere in the room was incredibly tense, and everyone kept their heads down, not daring to speak.

Ophelia knew that Colby was in a terrible mood today, so she didn't bring up the fact that someone had taken advantage of her in the restroom.

About half an hour later, Colby's father arrived at the hotel in his car. As soon as Colby saw his dad, he quickly stood up and called out, "Dad, you're here!"

*Smack!* The middle-aged man stepped forward and slapped Colby across the face, his eyes glaring as he yelled, "You little brat, who do you think you are? You spent over nine thousand dollars on one meal! Just wait until we get home..."

The classmates looked at Colby with expressions of helplessness. They had known him for a long time but had never seen him so humiliated.

Colby, having been slapped by his father in front of all his classmates, felt utterly embarrassed. He blamed it all on Brentley. If it weren't for Brentley, he wouldn't have been humiliated like this today!

Before Brentley broke up with Ophelia, he had spent all his money on her, so he was still using an old button phone that could only send texts and make calls, with no other functions.

Earlier, Felicity had reminded Brentley about his outdated phone, so after leaving the hotel, he randomly found a phone store and bought the latest smartphone. The cost of the phone was nothing to Brentley now.

At this moment, Brentley finally realized that everything Mr. Griffin had told him was probably true.

Although he hadn't used the black card from Huaxia Bank yet, the five million dollars in his personal bank account were very real.

He had used that card to pay for the meal at the Prosperity Hotel and the new phone.

Brentley found it all incredibly surreal. He had suddenly become the heir to a fortune. It was the kind of thing that no one would believe if he told them.

As he walked home, he fiddled with the new phone, exploring its features. About half an hour later, Brentley arrived home, but before he could open his door, he saw the beautiful woman from next door coming in with some late-night snacks.

She was wearing a tight, sleeveless pink T-shirt that perfectly showcased her ample chest and slim waist.

She paired it with black denim shorts that revealed her long, fair legs. Her delicate face had a light touch of makeup, making her look very refined and pretty.

"You're back late," Brentley greeted her.

"And you are?" The woman blinked her large, watery eyes, looking puzzled.

"I'm your neighbor from next door. You helped me pay my rent this morning. Don't you remember?" Brentley quickly explained.

"Oh, it's you!" she exclaimed.

The beautiful woman suddenly realized something and gave Brentley a once-over before softly asking, "Do you need something?"

"Well, I just wanted to thank you for this morning. If you hadn't paid my rent, who knows how long the landlord would have kept bothering me. I have the money now, so I wanted to pay you back!" Brentley said with a cheerful smile.

"Alright, then pay me back!" The woman's mood seemed much better than it had been in the morning, and her attitude towards Brentley had improved significantly.

Brentley quickly reached into his pockets, but he realized he didn't have enough cash to cover the $600.

"If you don't have the money, it's fine. It's not that much anyway," the woman said as she started to walk into her room.

"Wait, I don't have cash on me, but how about I add you on WeChat and transfer the money to you?" Brentley didn't want to owe her any longer, especially since $600 wasn't a big deal for him now.

"…Alright," the woman nodded slightly and took out her phone.

Brentley also took out his phone and opened his newly registered social media account, ready to add her.

However, when the woman saw Brentley's phone, she couldn't help but pause and softly ask, "If you can afford such a nice phone, why couldn't you come up with $600 for rent?"

"I just recently got some money, so I bought a new phone. I really didn't have any money before," Brentley explained with a smile.
