The Rebirth of Garbage

—“Vic, VicVic… You’re so great!”—

—“Ah—! That’s so comfortable! You’re so much better than that worthless Reg Butler~”

—“Dear, I love you so much…”

In front of the shabby rental house, Reg Butler stood there, stunned, watching the mess inside.

Anyway, he never would’ve thought that his girlfriend, Eileen Ford, would betray him like that. And judging by the ecstatic expression on Eileen Ford’s face, it seemed clear that she wasn’t forced to do it at all.

Suddenly, his hand went limp, causing the soy milk he was holding to spill onto the floor. Uncle White Sandsun, whose hands were still warm, ended up with soy milk all over him. The two people in the rental house were also startled by this incident.

Eileen Ford felt as though she had just woken from a dream. She began to hastily tidy her clothes. In her panic, she looked up and saw Reg Butler’s gloomy expression. She was momentarily stunned.

“Reg. You… you’re back.”

“Whoa, isn’t that the infamous, worthless Reg Butler? I bet he knew we’d burned through a lot of energy during our workout, so he rushed back just to bring us breakfast.”

The man in bed was initially panicked. But when he realized it was Reg Butler, he sat up straight immediately. “So, this is meant to help me regain my strength? Unfortunately, Eileen Ford and I won’t be attending class today. If ‘The Abbotess’ calls our names later, just tell her we’re absent on our behalf.”

They’re all juniors at Deep Sea University. Although their schedules are quite loose these days, giving them time to spend time together, there are still rules to follow. They still need to be present for class as required.

The man and woman took turns asking questions, but Reg Butler didn’t respond. He simply stared at Eileen Ford in silence.

Eileen Ford casually threw on a men’s shirt. Most of her torso was exposed, revealing her smooth, beautiful skin. It was a sight she had never seen with her own eyes before.

She and Reg Butler have been living together for almost half a year now. Although they share meals and live in the same house, they’ve never gone beyond that crucial final step. Eileen Ford always appears shy and reserved…

Today, Reg Butler’s worldview has been completely transformed.

Wandering to the extreme.

Vic Connor showed an unhappy expression. He spat at Reg Butler and said casually, “Reg Butler, what are you still staring at? Come on, Martha, tell him in person how far he should go.”

Hearing these words, Eileen Ford felt as though a weight had been lifted from her shoulders. After clearing her throat with a couple of dry coughs, she said calmly, “Reg Butler, listen carefully: I, Eileen Ford, hereby declare that our relationship is over. You may leave now. I don’t want to see you ever again.”

Reg Butler stiffly raised his head. “Why… is it because I wasn’t good enough to you?”

“This isn’t something to decide based on whether it’s ‘good’ or ‘bad’!” Eileen Ford’s flushed face immediately turned cold.

“Reg Butler, you wretched poor man, what right do you have to bring me happiness?”

“Everyone in the school knows that you went to college using student loans. You can barely afford to support yourself. How can I possibly spend time with you, a poor loser like you? I just want a little bit of happiness. Think carefully about what you can offer me.”

“You’re nothing but a puppy dog, a toad that dreams of eating swan meat.”

“I feel disgusted just by looking at you!”

“…You… what did you say?”

Reg Butler felt a pang in his heart as he saw that Eileen Ford no longer had the gentle demeanor she once had.

“What, aren’t my words clear enough?” Seeing Reg Butler’s dejected appearance, Eileen Ford felt no sympathy at all. Instead, she felt even more disgusted. Pointing at the man at the door, she started yelling insults:

“Don’t you even know who you are? You might look presentable, but unfortunately, you’re too poor to be anything but a faceless fool. How could someone like you bring me happiness?!”

“You can’t even afford the latest Apple phones. Look at Zhang Yu and Li Xin from our class. After they got boyfriends, what did they do? They all use Apple phones worth over 10,000 yuan each, plus they use expensive cosmetics too.”

“What about you… Heh, I’m too embarrassed to even mention you. You’re still using that old-fashioned phone from the last century. Every time I see you using that clunky device, I feel like you’re bringing shame upon me!”

The woman’s sharp, cruel words struck deep into Reg Butler’s vulnerable heart. He took a few uncertain steps back, staring at Eileen Ford in disbelief.

He knew that his girlfriend preferred the rich over the poor. Back then, he thought it wasn’t a big deal. After all, in today’s society, people are supposed to laugh at the poor, not the prostitutes. Just like those girls in his class who hooked up with men for money.

What he never expected was that… his Eileen Ford would ultimately betray him for money as well.

Staring at the mess on the sheets, Reg Butler’s eyes turned blood-red. His heart felt as though it had been cut with a knife. “Eileen Ford, is that all you care about—money?”

“Hah? Nonsense. In today’s society, who would dare to go against money?” Eileen Ford sneered.

“Look at your pathetic appearance right now. I don’t even need to guess what you’ll be like in the next ten-odd years. How can you possibly compare to Brother Vic Connor?”

As she spoke, she leaned against the man beside her, like a little bird clinging to its mate. “In my eyes, Vic is the real man. As for you, you’re nothing but a good-for-nothing—useless and worthless.”

The Vic that Eileen Ford mentioned was none other than Vic Connor, the class’s super-rich second-generation heir.

“Reg Butler, since I’m currently with a beautiful woman and have no desire to deal with you, get lost already. You’ve been with Eileen Ford for half a year already, and you still haven’t explored her body? In fact, I should even thank you for that! You have no idea how skilled she is in bed… Hehe, at least you’ve gotten to see Martha’s body. I won’t make things difficult for you anymore. Consider it some compensation for you poor wretch.”

“Oh, honey~ You’re so bad~” Eileen Ford playfully punched Vik Connor’s flat chest with her small fist, her voice full of shyness.

Reg Butler clenched his fists, veins bulging on his face.

Damn it! In just a few months, on his 22nd birthday, the family’s “ban” on him will be lifted. By then, he’ll be eligible to use that considerable amount of wealth…

Originally, Reg Butler planned to tell Eileen Ford that day, to surprise her. He wanted to see her surprised and delighted expression amidst the huge increase in her balance… But unexpectedly, he witnessed this scene today instead.

He let out a heavy sigh, then relaxed his fists and stepped back. Thankfully, there were family prohibitions in place. Otherwise, marrying such a money-grubbing woman would indeed be a tragedy.

Poor Eileen Ford! If she only knew that by sleeping with Vic Connor and mocking herself publicly, she missed out on the heir to the world’s richest man, what kind of expression would she make? But that’s no longer something he needed to worry about.

Just then, the “metal lump” in his pocket suddenly received a text message.

“You little brat, Dad has some urgent matters to attend to abroad for a while. So, I’m lifting the ban on you in advance. You’re not a child anymore. I’ll give you some money to spend as you please. You must have been held back all these years, right? Go ahead and have fun.”

Immediately afterwards, another text message arrived. Reg Butler stared at it so hard he almost dropped his phone.

“Dear Global Supreme Black Card member, your bank card has been unfrozen. The current balance is 200,000,000 US dollars. Certified by major banks worldwide.”

As he read each of the bolded words aloud, Reg Butler’s eyes lit up. Dad’s really amazing—this has lifted the ban on me!
