Chapter 7 The Mistake Of The Vengeful Trio

Today, Ferdinand had decided that it was time to resume classes as his grades were already dropping.

He got dressed and headed to class , trying to ignore the stares and whispers he received from other students on campus. As he walked into the classroom, the whispers grew louder, and Ferdinand could feel his face turning red with embarrassment.

He took his seat and tried to focus on the lesson, but he couldn't concentrate with all the noise around him. He could hear his classmates snickering and whispering behind his back, and he felt like he was the subject of some cruel joke.

During the lunch break, Ferdinand went to the cafeteria to get his food. As he was walking back to his table, he felt a sudden jolt and his food went flying out of his hands. He looked up to see one of Demain's goonies smirking at him.

"Oops, my bad," the goonie said, before walking away with a laugh.

Ferdinand was covered in food, and he could feel the eyes of his classmates on him. He looked over to where Demain and Serah were sitting, and he could see them laughing and pointing at him.

Ferdinand felt a surge of anger and humiliation. He quietly left the cafeteria, determined to get revenge on Demain and Serah.

Later that day, Ferdinand was walking home when he saw Demain and Serah, kissing while leaning on his vehicle. He took a deep breath and walked up to them.

"What's your problem Damien? Why did you send your disciple to throw my food all over me? Haven't you caused enough damage?" Ferdinand asked, his voice shaking with anger.

Demain and Serah looked at each other and laughed.

"Nothing, I just love seeing you suffer, and trust me, this is just the beginning. I will make you pay for ever laying a finger on me. I don't know what tricks you pulled to get out of police custody, but that wouldn't save you from what I have in store for you." Demain said, smirking, then he kissed Serah to make Ferdinand's pain worse.

Ferdinand felt his anger boiling over. He clenched his fists and took a step towards Demain.

"You think you're so cool, but you're just a bully. You think having money is an excuse to treat people like trash, but I want you to know this; there is always someone greater than you out there. And who knows, he might just be closer than you think." Ferdinand smiled, then he looked at Sarah before walking away.

Demain and Serah just laughed and walked away, leaving Ferdinand in anger.

....

As Ferdinand stormed into the dorm room, his roommates Tom, Josh, and Frank could tell that something was wrong. He was fuming, his face red with anger, and his fists clenched tightly at his sides. They knew better than to ask what was wrong right away, so they waited for Ferdinand to calm down a bit before approaching him.

Finally, after a few minutes of pacing back and forth, Ferdinand sat down on his bed and let out a deep sigh. "You won't believe what happened to me today," he said, his voice shaking with anger. "Damien and Sarah...they humiliated me in front of everyone on campus. They made me look like a fool."

They listened intently as Ferdinand recounted the details of the incident. They could see the hurt and embarrassment in his eyes, and they knew that something had to be done to make things right.

Without hesitation, Tom spoke up. "We can't let them get away with this," he said. "We have to do something to get back at them."

Josh and Frank nodded in agreement.

Later on, Tom assembled Josh and Frank , and together, the three of them secretly began to hatch a plan. They decided to sneak out to Damien's car and puncture all four of his tires, hoping that it would teach him a lesson and make him think twice before messing with Ferdinand again.

The plan went off without a hitch, and they all went to bed feeling satisfied that justice had been served. But the next day, things took a turn for the worse.

Damien was furious when he discovered his flat tires, and he immediately suspected that Ferdinand was behind it. He sent his friends to find Ferdinand and bring him to him, and when they did, he was seething with anger.

"So you think you can puncture my tires and escape huh? "Damien asked.

" What the heck are you talking about? Ferdinand asked, completely puzzled.

" Because you are nothing but a church rat, and you don't know the worth of this car, you had the gods to lay your filthy hands on it, didn't you? " Damien asked, getting less patient.

Ferdinand chuckled and shook his head." You are really trying hard to get my attention, aren't you? I have nothing to do do with whatever happened, and I want nothing to do with you."

As Ferdinand tried to explain that he had nothing to do with the tires, Damien wasn't having it. He and his friends beat Ferdinand up and robbed him of every penny he had on him, leaving him bruised and battered in the dark corner .

...

Ferdinand limped down the hallway, his face bruised and bloodied. He knew he needed medical attention. Anyone who saw him avoiding him as they knew he was Damien's mark. No one wanted to get on Damien's bad side. He made his way to the school nurse's office, hoping she could help him.

As he entered the room, the nurse looked up and gasped at the sight of him. "Oh my goodness, Ferdinand! What happened to you?" she exclaimed, rushing over to him.

Ferdinand shook his head, not wanting to talk about it. He just wanted his injuries treated so he could go back to the dorm and rest. The nurse could see the pain in his eyes and knew he was hurting both physically and emotionally.

She gently led him to a chair and began to clean his wounds. As she worked, she spoke softly to him, trying to offer comfort. "I'm so sorry this happened to you, Ferdinand. You don't deserve to be treated like this."

Ferdinand remained silent, but the nurse could feel his pain. She knew he was an orphan, and had a difficult life. She wanted to help him in any way she could.

"Listen, Ferdinand," she said, placing a hand on his shoulder. "If you ever want to talk about what happened, or anything else for that matter, I'm here to listen. You don't have to go through this alone."

Ferdinand looked up at her, surprised by her kindness. He nodded slowly, not sure if he was ready to open up yet, but grateful for her offer.

After the nurse finished treating his injuries, Ferdinand got up to leave. He thanked her quietly and made his way out of the office. As he walked down the hallway, he couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort knowing that someone in this school cared about him, apart from his friends .

....

When Ferdinand returned to the dorm, Tom, Josh, and Frank realized that they had made a grave mistake. They confessed to puncturing Damien's tires and explained that they were just trying to get revenge for Ferdinand .

But it was too late. The damage had been done, and now Ferdinand had to face the consequences of their actions. They knew that they had let their anger and desire for revenge get the best of them, and they vowed never to let it happen again.

As they sat in silence, contemplating what had happened, Ferdinand sighed. "I forgive you guys," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "But we can't let this happen again. We have to learn to control our anger and find better ways to deal with our problems."

Tom, Josh, and Frank nodded in agreement, and the four of them sat in silence.

....

Duke had been working on creating a bank account for Ferdinand for a few days now. Ferdinand's grandfather had instructed him to transfer five billion dollars into the account and Duke had successfully completed the task. He had called Ferdinand to meet up with him so that he could collect the necessary receipts and the bank card.

Duke was waiting patiently inside his expensive vehicle when Ferdinand arrived and stepped in.

" You called.. " Ferdinand said.

Duke remained silent, eyes wide as he was surprised to see Ferdinand in bandages. "What happened to you?" he asked.

Ferdinand hesitated for a moment before deciding not to tell Duke about his situation. "I'd rather not say."

" Is it that Damien guy again? " Duke asked, but Ferdinand still did not open up. He instructed Duke not to let his grandfather know about his present condition.

Duke suspected that Ferdinand's situation had a high possibility of having something to do with his ex-girlfriend, Sarah, and her boyfriend Damien. After watching the complete video of what happened that day, he knew what his young master was silently going through, alone.

Duke looked at Ferdinand and sighed, "You know you can end this at any time, right?" he asked, feeling concerned.

"I know," Ferdinand replied as he took the documents and stepped out of the car.

" It will end soon, and it might end painfully, but not for me..."

Duke watched as Ferdinand walked away and couldn't help but worry about his safety. He knew that Ferdinand was in a dangerous situation and that he needed to be careful.

" I must say he is one tough guy, " Patrick, Duke's driver, commented.

" Yeah, " Duke agreed before the car zoomed off.
