The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess-Novel
264 Chapter 264In the infirmary.
The wounded ones after getting treated were placed on the bed.
Joey, who had been knocked out by a sound attack, opened his eyes and stared at the white ceiling above his head.
A splitting headache assaulted him and he pressed his forehead trying to massage it to lessen the pain.
“Argh!” A small groan escaped from his lips and he felt his ears hurt.
His ears were still ringing with a noise similar to a hammer hitting the walls which made his vision flurry.
He felt a bit restless and lay on the bed while trying to relax a bit.
“Alex!!That bastard..” Joey muttered while gritting his teeth.
“Did you call me?”
Joey heard an unfamiliar voice and tilted his head to see an elegant figure sitting while skidding the pages of a book.
“You…what are you doing here?” He spoke with a surprised expression.
His body trembled subconsciously and he closed his ears out of instinct.
Alex closed the book and glanced at Joey with a cynical smile.
“As a classmate, I thought of visiting you and apologise for sending you here.”
Joey felt his anger reaching all over his head and said”Are you trying to humiliate me by coming here?”

“Quite clever!” Alex nodded and kept the book aside and folded his legs.
“I heard you were running after my wife and trying to prove yourself better as compared to me,” Alex asked.
“So, what? Since when did it become a crime to court a lady?”
“Ohhh!”
“That means, in the future when you are married, I can also try to court your wife,” Alex spoke with a sinister expression in a threatening tone.
All of Joey’s hair stood up on hearing Alex’s words and he felt an invisible pressure over his shoulder.
Beads of sweat formed over his head.
After a moment of realization, he felt that he spoke rashly.
“Your worth isn’t even enough for my wife to grace you with her presence. Moreover, I guess that you are just a scapegoat that has been thrown aside.” Alex asked, raising his brows.
Alex had observed the group of students.
If his analysis was correct, Joey might also belong to a group.
Though Joey had guts, Alex can see that this boy had been fooled around and someone had just added fuel to the fire by whispering some sweet dreams and this boy thought of himself as a hero saving a damsel in distress.
“What do you mean by scapegoat?”
“Just tell me, who is the ringleader of that group?”
“I don’t know what you are talking about?” Joey refuted and averted his gaze.
Alex sighed and spoke, “Joey, you have excellent prospects but you are just ruining yourself by obeying some stupids who want to play childish pranks on you.”
“Instead of doing all that bullshit, if you have focused on improving yourself, you might not have fallen into the infirmary and mark my words, your life is going to be rough from now,”
“You are going to be a laughing matter throughout the classroom and would be alienated from others,”
Alex spoke and stood up.
“Don’t just ruin your life by mixing with those who don’t even treat you as a friend.”
“I can see potential in you. If you ever realize your mistake, you can look for me.”
Joey stared at Alex with a dazed expression. Looking at the fading back of Alex, numerous thoughts ran into his mind and he clenched his mind.
He knew that soon he was going to be a laughing stock in the whole class.
Alex’s words had some sense. Although he wanted to show his dominance, it wasn’t to such an extent that he would just leap forward like a fool.
“I have been blinded by flattery and praise.” He spoke, gritting his teeth.
…..
Alex walked out of the infirmary and soon found a shadowy figure at the corner.
“Classmate Riya, was there anything you needed for me?”
“Classmate Alex, I have some doubts about my studies so I came here to seek some guidance from you,” Riya spoke.
Alex smiled seeing Riya calling his name, Riya can’t address him as Lord on campus so she was forced to call him by his name.
And it sounded so sweet that Alex felt his heart would melt at the next moment.

“What did you take me for? A tyrant.” Alex rolled his eyes.
Riya giggled a bit and Alex held her hand, and both of them strode towards the garden.
“Is it okay to hold hands?” Riya asked in a nervous tone as both of them were in public.
“We have already gone beyond holding hands and we are proper husband and wife. In front of all the deeds, we have done, holding hands is nothing. If you want we can even kiss here.”
“Stay away, bad wolf!” Riya grumbled with a flustered expression.
Both of them sat on the bench in the garden filled with several flowers emanating a pleasant smell due to the soft cool breeze.
Riya rested her head on Alex’s shoulder and stared at the beautiful sunset.
Alex spoke about his daily life here while Riya shared her own experiences.
Both of them enjoyed the peaceful moment, but they heard a small shriek which interrupted their fun time.
“Damn!” Alex cursed and looked around.
Riya hurriedly stood straight after all she cannot ruin her image of a proper lady.
Previously, she used the veil to hide her face which made her a little indifferent but now since she had her face exposed, she can’t do as she pleases.
“Did you hear someone crying and groaning in pain?” Riya asked.
Alex nodded with a solemn expression and said”It seems that someone is being bullied?”
“Bullying often happens here. It’s worse when it comes to people’s lower status.” Riya muttered.
“Let’s take a look,” Alex spoke and both of them got up and moved towards the source of the sound.
