Chapter 150 I Am An Idiot
In truth, Emrys‘ motive in groping Cordelia was to stop her from standing up for him.
However, Richard, Lydia, and Myles felt that Cordelia glared at Emrys because she blamed him for
humiliating her and was livid.
Yes! This is great!
Over the moon, Myles was even more confident that he stood a chance at bagging Cordelia.
It looks like I’ve got to find a few more opportunities like this and take this man down a peg or two, thus
intensifying Cordelia’s disdain toward him.
As Myles was thinking about it, Emrys voluntarily offered himself up to be shamed, much to the
former’s surprise.
“Since you’re a graduate who studied abroad, Mr. Atkinson, it happens that there are a few words I
can’t read. I wonder if you mind teaching me?” Emrys queried
The moment his words rang out, everyone’s expressions turned strange.
Even Cordelia swung her gaze to him with surprise written all over her face.
What’s wrong with you, Rys? The subject of illiteracy has obviously ended. Why did you take the
initiative to bring it up again? Couldn’t you have waited to ask me at home if there are words you can’t
read?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPuzzlement and irritation swamped her.
Myles, on the other hand, gathered his wits about him after a brief stupefaction and replied, “Haha, feel
free to ask me any words you don’t recognize, Mr. Lund. I’ll definitely answer everything patiently.”
In all his twenty–odd years, he had never met someone like Emrys who had a wish to be humiliated. It
was his first time seeing such a person that day.
“Yes, yes. Such an attitude is excellent. Why would you want to be uneducated? It’d be great to have
Myles teach you a few more words. We should all be more civilized,” Richard and Lydia chimed in.
Their eyes brimmed with glee.
It was not that they had changed their minds about Emrys for real. Instead, it was because that was
clearly a golden opportunity to showcase Emrys‘ inferiority and Myles‘ superiority. Thus, they were all
too happy to second it.
Most importantly, Emrys himself offered them the opportunity on a silver platter. Consequently, Cordelia
could not possibly blame them for it.
Sheer smugness pervaded them.
Emrys got to his feet to leave the private room, planning to head to the reception to borrow a pen and
paper. Cordelia wanted to follow suit and dissuade him from his course of action, but he stopped her
from standing up.

Hastily grabbing Cordelia’s hands, Lydia urged, “Emrys is merely eager to learn, Cordelia. Wouldn’t it
be great to let him learn a few words? Let him go!”
At that, Cordelia was left without a retort.
Emrys went out. About two or three minutes later, he returned to the private room with a piece of
paper.
“Mr. Atkinson, I only know how to write these few words. I can’t read them. Hence, I wrote them onto
this piece of paper. Just teach me how to read them.”
“Haha, no problem! It’s nothing!”
Myles chortled, emanating a sense of great superiority. But the instant he unfolded the paper, his face
flushed bright red.
“You’re f*cking messing with me, aren’t you?”
He abruptly shot to his feet, the gentlemanly air he had maintained for the entire time disappearing into
thin air at that moment. Argh! He’s downright despicable!
The man’s sudden burst of anger had Richard and Lydia shocked and bewildered. They peered at the

It was an acrostic four–stanza writing that ended up reading: I am an idiot.
Cordelia was initially beyond despondent. When she caught a glimpse of the writing on the piece of
paper, however, she could not help bursting into giggles. She then threw Emrys a gloomy look.
You’re so naughty, Rys!
Meanwhile, the faces of the three other people there twitched. Myles, especially, wore an expression as
dark as thunder.
Even then, Emrys pushed his luck, scoffing, “And you called yourself a graduate who studied abroad in
Jetroina? In my opinion, your level of education isn’t any higher than mine. Oh yes, speaking of
graduates who studied abroad, I’m acquainted with a girl named Emily Valentine. Shall I introduce her
to you?”
Emily Valentine? That’s… the international pornstar!
At once, the corners of Myles‘ mouth twitched even more violently. Such fury blazed in his eyes that he
seemingly wanted to skin Emrys alive.
“Ah, forget it. Never mind, Myles Let’s not take offense to someone like him. Didn’t you say you invited
a few friends to Tulip Valley to admire the vast field of tulips? Bring Cordelia along for a stroll!”
