Chapter 31
In the physics classroom, Yvette settled into her seat.
She rested her chin on her right hand while holding a pen with her left. Her fingers were slender and graceful, Bathed in sunlight, her profile was exquisite and flawless. The boys in the classroom couldn’t help but steal glances at her.
courage,
Sitting not far from Yvette Bonnie had been mentally preparing herself for quite some time. Finally, gathering her she spoke up. “Hi, I’m Bonnie Sanders, the representative of the physics department. I live in the dorm right next to yours, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask me.”
Yvette turned her head to look at the blushing girl and found her quite adorable. “Hi there, Bonnie.”
Bonnie’s face turned even more red. She hadn’t expected Yvette to be so warm towards her. T… um, Mr. Sunderland left you some basic physics questions,” she stammered.
Yvette casually scribbled a few notes on her paper. Then, as she noticed the test paper in her drawer, she tossed it into another desk drawer without a second thought. Turning to Bonine, she flashed a smile. “Bonnie, did you see the test paper?”
Bonnie was puzzled by Yvette’s actions. She blinked her bright, sparkling eyes at Yvette in astonishment. Yvette chuckled. softly at her reaction, leaving Bonnie momentarily speechless. It struck her just how beautiful Yvette looked when she smiled.
Yesterday, Bonnie had thought Yvette was cool and aloof, but today she discovered that Yvette could also be gentle.
I didn’t see it,” Bonnie blurted out without thinking. As soon as the words left her lips, she regretted it, feeling that Yvette’s charm had clouded her judgment.
Yvette nodded in satisfaction and then lazily rested her head on the desk, drifting off to sleep. Bonnie sat still beside Yvette, wanting to let her sleep peacefully
When Victor arrived at the campus, he noticed that the usual crowd that surrounded him was keeping their distance. Despite Victor’s arrogance, he couldn’t just beat everyone up. Only a few of his minions still followed him because their families rely on the Carter family’s business.
Victor asked them what was going on, but they stammered and suggested he check the forum.
Back in his dorm, Victor opened the internal forum and quickly discovered that what had happened on the basketball court had spread throughout Argrol University. Just as he was looking for Yvette to vent his frustration, Simon Sanders, the president of Argrol University, called him over.
Once in the office, Victor was met with an earful from Simon. Unlike most university presidents, Simon not only held a high place in the education sector but also had powerful connections with Betrico. No matter how cocky Victor was, he had to listen obediently to Simon.
When Victor finally left Simon’s office, he felt an even deeper hatred for Yvette. At that moment, he wished for nothing more than to see Yvette utterly destroyed.
Yvette slept through the entire class. When she finally woke up, most of the students had left, and only Bonnie, who was sitting attentively as she focused on her physics paper, remained
Yvette stretched lazily, unintentionally revealing part of her waistline. Upon seeing Yvette’s fair skin, Bonnie, who had already regained her composure, blushed once more.
“Bon, why are you still here? Yvette asked.
Bonnie was momentarily taken aback, her face turning even redder. She hadn’t expected Yvette to call her “Bon,” which made her feel both shy and elated. She shouldered her bag and dished out of the classroom.
Yene chuckled before standing up to leave the physics classroom. Just as she stepped out the door, she nearly bumped into John, who was holding some papers.
“Wette, where are you headed?” John asked.
Yvette casually nodded, her tone lazy from just waking up. The library
“Do you want me to show you the way? You are new here, so I guess you don’t know where the library is. Wait for me to drop my stuff off, and we can go together, John offered.
Yvette waved her hand dismissively. She just wanted some peace in the library without any company. “No, it’s fine. I’ll myself.
John looked a bit disappointed. “Alright then, suit yourself
Once Yvette had walked away, John reluctantly headed off to the office, still clutching the papers..
Yvette arrived at the Argrol University library. The shelves were filled with an array of books, including some rare volumes that were hardly found in stores. At Argrol University, students had the freedom to read all the books in the library.
She walked over to the language section, pulled out a few storybooks in Frixyia and German, and then grabbed a couple of comics from the comic section. Finding a quiet corner, she settled down, crossed her legs, and immersed herself in reading.
At lunchtime, the library was relatively empty, as most students opted to eat in the cafeteria or take a nap back at their dorms. Only a few people were reading.
“Frixyia, German, English, and comics. You have quite the variety Jeremiah suddenly appeared beside Yvette.
Yvette looked up, a hint of annoyance crossing her stunning features at being interrupted. “What’s up?”
Jeremiah awkwardly scratched his nose, while Andrew, standing nearby, widened his eyes. More surprising than Jeremiah’s attempt at flirting was Yvette’s icy demeanor. Yvette was the first person Andrew had seen who dared to be so indifferent to Jeremiah, yet Jeremiah wore a smile, undeterred.
Andrew glanced between the impatient Yvette and the doting Jeremiah, thinking he had stumbled upon a huge secret. It seemed that this wasn’t their first encounter.
As he looked more closely at Yvette, a sense of familiarity washed over him. He felt he had seen her before, but he couldn’t place where.
“Just want to say hi. By the way, the pill from that night is great! Jeremiah remarked, grinning.
Yvette shot him a glance, recognizing him as the man from that night in the alley. She then noticed his name tag that read “Librarian” and returned her focus to the comic book, completely ignoring Jeremiah. To her, the comic was far more interesting.
Jeremiah, however, wasn’t offended by being ignored. He casually grabbed a book from the nearest shelf and sat down opposite Yvette, flipping through it as if nothing had happened.
Andrew wasn’t sure what was going on, but he decided to go with the flow and sat down next to Jeremiah. Lacking the mood to read, he took out his phone and began posting in a group chat titled ‘A Man Should Suffer, but Not His Car
[Guess what just happened?]
Big news, come check it out.
[30 thousand dollars for the gossip.]
[Hey, trust me, 30 thousand dollars won’t lead you astray.]
Three minutes passed with no messages in the chat. As soon as money was mentioned, everyone went silent Andrew gritted his teeth, getting ready to drop a bombshell.
Want to hear some gossip about Jeremiah? You have three minutes.]
The chat, which had been silent just moments before, exploded with messages.
Whose gossip! Andy, if you’re lying, you’re dead meat!]
Yeah. Spill the teal The money has been transferred.)Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Is it really Jeremiah’s gossip?
[I don’t believe it.]
Within less than three minutes, Andrew received notification of million dollars. He felt like he had stumbled upon a golden opportunity for wealth.
Andrew: [Everyone, please hold on. Let me tell you the details.]
[Stop teasing. Didn’t you go to Seacrity with Jeremiah? What gossip could there be?]
[Don’t fool us, or when you get back to Betrico, we’ll teach you a lesson.]
Andrew: Jeremiah had his eye on a girl in Seacrity and said hi, but she completely ignored him.]
The chat fell into silence for a full minute. Andrew scratched his head, perplexed about what was happening.
[Andrew has been hacked, someone call him and check it out!]
[It’s possible. Who’s going to call him?
[Let me call him.]
Just as Andrew was about to type a reply, his phone rang. Stunned, he answered the call with a simple “Hello, but the other person hung up immediately. When he looked back at the chat, he was greeted by a flood of new messages.
II just called him. It’s indeed Andrew himself)
[Oh my, so the news is true!]
[Jeremiah got rejected while flirting?]
(Which girl could turn down Jeremiah?
I don’t believe it. My idol could never be rejected! Andrew, just admit that you’re making up things!]
Andrew: [What did I do wrong?]
Within hours, the high society of Betrico was buzzing with the news that Jeremiah had been mercilessly rejected while firting with a girl in Seacrity.
Two hours later, Yvette flipped to the last page of her final book
Andrew was speechless; it was the first time he’d seen someone lip pages so quickly while reading. He doubted whether Yvette could even absorb the content in such a manner. However, Jeremiah didn’t seem to find anything odd about it. Andrew felt as though he was in an entirely different world from the two of them.
