Carissa sighed for a while. She then got up to leave. It didn't take long for our parents to leave as well. Before they left, two tall and strong community security guards came in.
I didn't need to think about it. I knew that they were afraid that I would beat Richard to death. So they sent some people to protect them.
I didn't care about things like this. As long as no one bothers me, I won't do any violence. I was a workaholic. I should have gone back to my room to work a long time ago if Richard hadn't been bothering me all this time.

Carissa was also reading at the desk. She was sitting right next to me.
Carissa said, “My legs are sore. Let’s rest for a while.”
She then placed her long legs on my lap. I was a little bit shocked. In my heart, I asked, “How could I work like this?”
I was a bit helpless right now. At this time, Richard suddenly walked in. When he saw Carissa's leg on my lap, his eyes were immediately red. He also gritted his teeth.
“Carissa, aren't you being too nice to him?”
Without our parents present, he stopped pretending and his voice was very gloomy. On the other hand, Carissa didn't say anything and continued to read.
