My Elite Schoolmate, The Bride Looked Me Down As I Was Only Graduated From The Junior Highschool.
The President Revealed
The entire hall fell silent at my words. The first to break the quiet atmosphere was the bride.
“What? What do you mean fired?”
Lucas answered shakily.
“You… what the hell did you say? Jackson is the president of my company.”
“That’s right.”
I was the guy who started a delivery company at the age of 16. Even though I graduated from Junior High School, over the course of 10 years, I grew the company into a major corporation. I started the delivery service only with my own bicycle. By facing a time when people were spending more and more time at home, it quickly became a publicly traded company.
Lucas was my friend and a fellow member of the facility. He always shared his meals with me, taking care of me when I was skinny. He was more than just a friend; he was a benefactor.
I grew up in an orphanage until I was 15 years old, while Lucas was adopted at the age of 12 and raised by the current parents. Lucas was clever enough so that he quickly improved his studies and entered a prestigious university. We kept in touch with each other even after we moved away from each other.
When we started our own company, Lucas said to me:
“I’ll study hard and support the company.”
After our dream came true, Lucas got married. I was so happy when I heard that Lucas, who was so shy, was getting married. I wanted to congratulate him more than anyone else. That was the reason why I persisted, even though the bride refutes so much.
“I didn’t hear anything about that! A junior high school graduate is not the president.”
“It’s true that even a junior high school graduate is the president. I have the right to fire people, and it was the bride herself who asked me to cut off the business with Lucas.”
I gently told her that I did as she wished. She said:
“Huh? Then Lucas is really fired?”
The bride, who had been frozen, muttered.
“Fired? If you’re such a bum, I don’t want you anymore. I quit this marriage! It’s meaningless if you’re not an elite and don’t have a high income.”
The Final Twist
What a surprise that she declared that she was breaking off her engagement with Lucas, who had just been fired. The attendees boomed loudly at these words.
“Shut up! I’m the victim! The good terms we had before we got married suddenly disappeared. This is just like a marriage scam!”
She exclaimed and demanded compensation from Lucas for breaking off the engagement. As expected, Lucas was disgusted by this behavior. Here, I quietly tapped the screaming bride on the shoulder and whispered:
“You’re the one who’s going to pay the alimony, you know.”
After I said so, I played the video recording of my phone on the projector in the hall. This was taken by the phone I had dropped in the bride’s waiting room when a male relative grabbed me. I pressed the record button on my phone, and it might be evidence on my injury.
It appears that I then dropped with the impact of being pushed against the wall. The phone that fell off continued to record, and it recorded the bride being unfaithful to the male relative in the waiting room.
After the ceremony started, I went looking for the phone in the waiting room where I would have dropped it, and luckily I found the phone lying in the corner of the room. I was shocked to see the contents of the recording. I couldn’t believe they were doing such a lousy thing on such a sacred day as a wedding.
I really couldn’t believe it as a human being, and immediately I went to report it to Lucas. In other words, the earlier firing sentence was a surprise that Lucas knew about to reveal the true nature of the bride.
Lucas’s relatives flamed the bride’s relatives fiercely. The bride’s relatives, however, refused the attack, saying:
“We don’t have any relatives like that man.”
They refused to claim. Later, it turned out that the man who was with the bride was just an adulterer. He had a nice face and was a great guy to hang out with, but he was a pimp who didn’t even work.
Aftermath and Justice
The bride, who wanted to live a celebrity life as a member of a well-educated family while having a boyfriend, set her sights on Lucas, who was gentle and reserved, and strongly asked him to marry her. She really was a trashy woman. Lucas, who studied all the time and had little experience in love… Lucas was kind and trusted people easily.
In the end, I’m glad that I could see through the bride’s evil ways because I was a high school graduate. I never thought my education would come in handy this way.
The evil scum bride then had to pay 5 million in wedding reimbursement and 3 million for breaking off the engagement, for a total of 8 million in debt. Of course, she was insulated from her relatives as she was humiliated, and her adulterous partner, who was frightened by the amount of debt, ran away.
She fell into a life of living alone in a shabby apartment, working day and night desperately trying to pay off her debts. Thanks to the appearance of the scum woman, the friendship between Lucas and I deepened, and the company grew rapidly and steadily.
For Lucas, who has always had a strong desire to get married, I think I would join a matchmaking party with him next time.
