Carissa looked at me. “Since you can stay, then study hard. Don’t leave from here this morning.”
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.
I stood up and walked over to him. “Do you want to get beat up again, Richard?”
Richard was offended by my words. He then replied briefly, “Oh, you are just a bastard from the countryside, Alfred. I will definitely drive you out with my ways. Just wait for my revenge.”
As Richard spoke, he suddenly took out a pebble and smashed it against his forehead. In the next moment, his forehead was drenched in blood. He then collapsed to the ground. He began to wail. Not long after, two security guards came in.
Richard screamed, “Help me! Please, save me. My brother is going to kill me!”
It didn't take long for our parents to come back. Richard, who had been pretending to be unconscious, woke up from his bed.
He shouted, “My brother, please, don't kill me. Can't I just leave?”
Our father, Ferdinand, roared loudly, “Bastard! What have you done, Alfred? How dare you bully Richard?”
My mother pointed at me and said, “I'm going to send you to jail, Alfred. I swear!”
I cursed and said, “Two stinking idiots! Since you guys are playing this game, don't blame me for not being unethical, okay?”
