Miguel was instantly enraged and wanted to move forward to push the bastard away, but before he could take action, a heavy slap was heard!
Ernesto’s face instantly flushed red from the slap.
The onlookers couldn’t help but let out stifled screams, as if their cheek was hurting too.
However, the commotion was not over yet!
Alba broke free from Ernesto’s grip, stood up and punched and kicked him incessantly.
-How dare you! Are you so lustful that you can’t help throwing yourself on girls every time you see them? I’ll call the police and have you arrested and thrown in jail!
The crowd was very stunned. They had thought the two were boyfriend and girlfriend, but they didn’t expect the truth to be true.
One of the students pointed at Miguel and said:
-I have seen it all clearly. This is the boyfriend of this young lady and I have seen them come to our campus together.
The crowd immediately cursed Ernesto, calling him a “rogue” and a “pervert”.
Ernesto became angry and yelled at the girl.
-Shut up, she’s my girlfriend and I’m her boyfriend!
After saying that, he reached out his arm and grabbed the angry woman firmly in his arms.
-Who are you calling a womanizer? Other than you, have I ever had interest in another woman?
Imprisoned in his embrace, Alba was not able to move a bit and was dumbfounded when she heard him say that she herself was his girlfriend.
“So this guy is Ernesto? But I don’t remember anything about this face. No, I can’t believe his words so easily.”
Seeing his slightly open collar, Alba unconsciously cursed.
-“I say, you’re a total womanizer! What’s your intention walking around the campus with so many kiss marks on your neck? You want to seduce young girls? Don’t you feel ashamed? How dare you take advantage of me? Let go of me right now! If you don’t, I’ll give you a good thrashing!
Miguel made an ugly grimace as he tried to push Ernesto away, but Ernesto looked at him angrily and replied without hesitation to Alba:
-It’s you who left so many hickeys on my neck!
Alba was silent, not knowing what to refute for a moment, as were the surrounding students.
Miguel felt even more jealous at her words. Considering that Alba had forgotten about Ernesto, and that what the latter said and did lacked respect for Alba, therefore, he had to defend her!
Without a second thought, he violently pushed Ernesto away and punched him.
Alba was stunned. For some reason, seeing the man recoil a few steps back from the blow, she felt distressed.
Ernesto stood his ground, wiped the corner of his lip with his thumb and looked at Miguel with fierce eyes.
“Well! Asshole, see if you dare mess with me!”
The moment he dropped his hand, he lunged with all speed towards Miguel. And so the two men began to violently punch each other, as if Alba would go with whoever won the fight.
More and more pedestrians gathered, curiously watching the rowdy fight, and some even started taking videos.
Alba tried to stop them, but her mind was too chaotic and she didn’t know who she was supposed to help.
-Please stop! Miguel, stop fighting with him!
Suddenly, there was a loud, clear whistle, followed by the stern voice of some college principal:
-What are you doing here! Fighting was forbidden on campus. Spread out!
In the end, the drama ended up in the school rector’s office.
The rector, with a serious face, said in a deep voice:
-Alba, Miguel, both of you are alumni of our school and you should the discipline and reputation of the university. However, you have made such a scandalous fuss in public. If some malicious people publish what has happened on social media, the reputation of Teladia University will be affected. Mr. Ernesto, you are at least a successful person in society and should pay more attention to your own corporate image?
The head of the school kept talking. Alba, very embarrassed, had her head very low and was looking sideways at the man on her left.
“This damned scoundrel is really Ernesto! A man like that is really my boyfriend? How is it possible that I fell in love with such a shameless man who pounced on me publicly and took advantage of me?”
“How scandalous today! There are so many people who witnessed such an uproar. If what happened is published on the networks, I as Mica’s assistant, maybe I will shock Mica. Ay, how annoying!”
In turn, Miguel was also quite embarrassed and regretted taking Alba to campus. At first, he wanted to remind her of the old days, in order to tighten the relationship between himself and her, but he didn’t expect Ernesto to show up and make such a fuss.
Ernesto looked at the woman next to him, took her in his arms and said to the director:
-Mr. Rector, I wanted to kiss my girlfriend and I just did it. I didn’t think too much about it.
At her words, the principal was silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Alba grimaced and shouted:
-I’m your girlfriend?! You bastard, don’t be so cheeky!
-Honey, shut up. If not, I’ll seal your mouth with my kisses right now, huh?
This domineering tone made Alba unconsciously cover her lips.
Miguel clenched his fist angrily and tried to throw himself at Ernesto again, but the latter Ernesto, taking Alba in his arms, turned around, avoided the blow and spoke to the director:
-Mr. Director, I noticed that the building on the left is a bit precarious. I wonder if I should donate a new teaching building for my girlfriend’s alma mater.
At the man’s words, the rector’s eyes instantly lit up. He put on a kind face and stepped between Miguel and Ernesto as he spoke:
-Mr. Ernesto, what you think is something very beneficial to the cause of education and deserves much consideration…..
Ernesto gave a light smile and said:
-Tomorrow, I will let my assistant talk to you about the donation in details. Now I have to go to my girlfriend. Oh, by the way…
Ernesto cast a disdainful glance at Miguel, who was not at all convinced, and continued talking to the rector:
-Mr. Director, you should educate this former student of yours well so that he does not meddle any more in the love affairs of others in the future. Being a lover is a very indecent thing to do.
After saying that, Ernesto left the office, dragging Alba with him.
Miguel became even angrier and tried to follow him to argue, but the rector stopped him:
-Wait, Miguel. I want to have a serious talk with you.
Alba was dragged to the school parking lot.
-Bastard, let go of me!
With a tug, Ernesto hugged her tightly and said:
-No, I won’t let go! You’re a bastard, and I’m not. Last time, you told me you were going to help me beat up that Miguel, but today you watched with your arms folded as that guy beat me up!
-He hit you? It’s obvious that Miguel suffered more in this fight!
Ernesto got even more upset and shouted under his breath:
-You feel sorry for him and not for me?! I’m your boyfriend!
Alba was dumbfounded.
Ernesto gave a sigh and squeezed his arms, smelling the scent of her hair and trying to calm the jealousy rising inside him.
-I’m sorry, honey. I shouldn’t yell at you like that. You don’t remember me and I should understand. I’m so sorry. Please forgive me.
Alba suddenly softened and her heart beat a little faster. Ernesto let go of her and took out his phone, opened the photo album and showed it to her.
-Honey, look at these pictures, can you retrieve the memories about me?
Alba took the cell phone from his hand, flipped through the album one after another and discovered that they were all intimate photos of her and this man.
Suddenly, the cell phone rang and a call came in. Alba saw Micaela’s name on the screen and gave Ernesto an inquisitive look.
He nodded:
-You answer it.
Alba pressed the answer button and said:
-Mica…
Not at all surprised that it was Alba who answered the phone, Micaela asked hurriedly:
-Alba, do you remember Ernesto after seeing him?
Ernesto opened the car door and gestured for Alba to get in. She was hesitating. Ernesto pushed her straight into the car.
-Alba? Can you hear me? -Micaela asked again, anxious.
-No, Mica, I don’t remember anything. It’s just that…
-Only what?
Ernesto put her seat belt on, closed the door and went to the driver’s side.
Alba took advantage of the moment and said quietly:
-I just feel very strange and at the same time a little familiar. He seems to be a very bold man. I don’t like a guy like that, do I?
Ernesto opened the driver’s door and sat down. Alba felt uncomfortable and told Micaela that she would call her back later. Micaela had to accept it.
After hanging up, Alba said:
-Please, take me back to Barrio Fanslan?
Ernesto said as he put the car in gear:
-Why do you want to go there at this hour? Aren’t you afraid that Micaela will find out that you like Carlos?
