Chapter 6: Turn The Tides
Nathan Hart.
It was a name that Gray hadn't heard in years. It was also a name that he would never forget.
Nathan was the rich young master from one of the most well-known families in the city. Even back in school, everyone knew who he was. He was known for his expensive clothes, flashy cars, servants, and his reputation for being rude.
And he made Gray's life a living hell.
Nathan never missed a chance to mock him. He called him names. Threw his lunch out once just for fun. And now... here he was, standing in front of Gray again with that same arrogant smile on his face.
"Well, I'll be damned. I didn't expect to see you here," Nathan said, his eyes scanning Gray from head to toe. He silently chuckled, noticing that Gray hadn't changed that much over the year.
"I'm surprised, actually. This place's got standards, you know."
Behind him, two guys from their old school snickered. They were Nathans's friends.
"He must've followed someone rich inside," one of them whispered loud enough for them to hear.
"Maybe he's washing dishes in the back and they're kind enough to let him eat here" the other one laughed.
Gray's hands tightened into fists under the table. He wanted to shout. He wanted to fight back and tell them to back off. However, Lily was sitting beside him.
