Genius Girl Chapter 49 - 49: The Fight

Chapter 49 - 49: The Fight

The student circled around the two girls fighting on the ground, some were taking videos while the others were chattering and shouting.

Daniella sat on the hood of the car near the headlights, she watched Leslie as she angrily pulled Selena's hair.

Her head shook with disbelief, Selena isn't fighting back and kept on shouting at her to stop Leslie.

"Fight Selena, she pulled your hair first so the court will consider your action as self-defense," she said, staring at the wrinkles on her fingers.

"What?" Selena's eyes widened with shock, she was not a fighter and had never once pulled someone's hair.

She has no idea how to fight back, her head numbed as Leslie keeps on pulling her hair.

A hand landed on her right cheek, Selena was stunned from getting a slap from Leslie.

She turned her head and saw the anger on Leslie's face. When she felt a bitter taste of blood from her lips, Selena's mind exploded.

She lifted her knee, and with full force, she kicked Leslie's private part.

Leslie groaned and immediately fell to the ground next to Selena. With the open opportunity, Selena got up and sat on Leslie, and just like what she did, Selena's hand went to Leslie's hair and deliberately pulled it.

Selena took out all her anger on Leslie's hair, she pulled them hard and rocked her head vigorously.

Feeling satisfied, Selena unclenched her fists and freed Leslie's hair, and without a warning, she returned the slap she got from her.

Selena got up, she could hear and people cheering her name like she's a boxer who had just won the fight.

She kicked Leslie, she didn't know that she could beat her up since Leslie's built is bigger than her.

Selena picked up her bag and took out some cash from her wallet and threw it at her, "Here," she said, "use that money to pay for your hospital bill. I bet your daddy can't even afford it."

Then she turned back, walked towards the motorcycle.

After the fight, Daniella straightened up, she looked at Leslie and shook her head. She didn't stop Selena from hurting Leslie, she saw all the past behaviors Leslie and her friends did to Selena, they were indeed bully, the bullies that tried to befriend Selena, get to know her and later use it to betray her.

Daniella followed Selena, she stopped after seeing another girl approaching her.

"Selena Su," a voice of a woman spoke from somewhere, Selena turned to her right and found the school cheerleader captain rus.h.i.+ng towards her, Maddie Tang, the most popular girl in the school.

"Yeah?" Selena said, she never spoke to Maddie, and not planning to have one.

"Would you like to be part of my cheerleading squad?" Maddie offered.

Selena shook her head, not interested.

Maddie sighed, head nodding as she said, "Ok but let me warn you, Leslie is a troublemaker, for sure she will do something to get back to you."

With the same flat face, Selena shrugged her shoulder, "I doubt it, she's too broke to even pay the next month tuition."

"Ahuh!," Maddie flickered her long eyelashes, "If you change your mind, you are always welcome to my team." she smiled and left Selena's side.

When Daniella stood next to her, the voice of Selena's princ.i.p.al called the girl's name.

"Ms. Su, my office, Now!."

It was past two when Evan arrived at the hospital. He went straight to the elevator after folding the sleeves of his polo.

His face was cold, just like the ambiance of the hospital. Few nurses are roaming around since it is one of the high-end hospitals in the country, the hospital only accepts few patients.

They stopped on the last floor; Mark who was accompanying Evan to visit the president walked behind him.

The hallway is empty, just like how Evan wanted it to be.

When Evan entered the room with the president on the bed, Mark guarded the door.

His eyes stared at the heart monitor showing a curve line of the President's heartbeat.

"Evan Su, how did you remove my guards around?" the president spoke in a faint tone. He has been in the hospital for days, and the body sore from laying on the bed.

Slowly, the president sat up, folded hands lay on the blanket.

Evan wrung his hands, beginning to pace around the room full of flowers with words written 'Get well soon', the sweet scent of the flower mixed with the disinfectant smell of the hospital were making his nose to itch with irritation.

The president watched him, soon, Evan sat on the single chair next to his bed.

"You have met my father right?" Evan started.

When the president nodded, Evan continued, "Yeah, why?"

"The money you withdrew thirteen years ago. I noticed that my father trashed your first request but, it was later approved by my brother after you visited our office. I saw your name in the logbook."

The pale hands of the president trembles, his eyes narrowed as he stared at Evan.

"Mr. Su, I thought we have pa.s.sed that topic. Why are you bringing it up?"

Evan sighed, resting his back against the chair, arms crossed over his stomach.

"I just want to know why someone would want you dead."

The president scoffed, "I only know one person that wants me dead and I am speaking to him now," he said with mockery.

Evan sighed, "what about Senator Villa and Senator Abe, what's your connection with them."

The president s.h.i.+fted his sight to the window, watching the clouds hovering in the sky.

"I want to know where did the money goes? Your connection to the two senators and the man Roman Lee, do the four of you know each other?"

Evan watched as the president tensely gulp, eyes narrowed with suspicion as he stared at the President's trembling hands.

"Why are you asking me this?" the president spoke after a long moment of silence.

Evan got up, both hands jammed in the pocket – pacing around the room.

"Because I need to know the reason why she became like that," he absently said.

"Who's she?" the president asked, perplexed.

"Have you met a short woman with a really beautiful face?" Evan stopped as he asked the president, eyes looking at the white wall.

"You need to be more specific. I meet beautiful women every day."

Evan sighed, his feet walked towards the president and sat on the edge of the bed.

"I don't need to be specific. Her beauty is different, the type of face that will haunt you even in your dreams."
