After leaving the Principal's Office, Audrey still had her brows furrowed. She was starting to regret what she had decided upon careful consideration.She muttered to Catherine, "No, I have to see the principal again. You can't go to Class 8. Liana is in Class 8. You can't be in the same class with her. With her character, she would surely cause trouble for you."With that, Audrey turned to head back to the Principal's Office, but Catherine grabbed her arm and yanked her back.Audrey looked up at Catherine in confusion.Catherine said lightly, "There's no need!""No need? Are you okay with being in Class 8? But what if Liana bullies you?" Audrey looked at her somewhat worriedly.Bully her?Catherine was confident that no one on earth could bully her. She smiled lightly, looking somewhat scary but casual as she said jokingly, "I'll bully her back then."For some reason, Audrey felt that Catherine was not joking.After all, she had seen Liana fighting with Catherine. Despite bei
It wasn't that nobody wanted to sit next to Bryan. It was that nobody dared to sit next to him.If Liana was the prettiest girl in Loyalty Academy, Bryan was the school bully.Nobody dared to cross Bryan. Besides, the youngest son of the Duncans was known to have a taboo, which was that he didn't like girls.Therefore, Bryan's seat was surrounded by male students.In the past, a girl that didn't know better forced her way into sitting near Bryan.She was kicked out of the classroom that day and was asked to quit school the next day. Since then, no girl dared to even think about sitting near Bryan.Now, the homeroom teacher asked the new student to sit beside Bryan directly. Everyone was worried about the new student. Some students couldn't help but wonder if the teacher hated the new student for making such an arrangement.Since Catherine stepped into the classroom, she had attracted the eyes of many. Now, it could be said that she was the center of attention.However, Catherin
Catherine woke up so suddenly that Bryan didn't have time to react. He hurriedly turned away so she wouldn't notice anything wrong with him.Bryan sat up straight and looked outside the window, pretending nothing had happened.A few seconds passed, and Bryan still didn't hear any movement behind him.This made Bryan furrow his brows slightly, feeling strange.Just as he considered whether he should turn back to look, a voice rang beside him."Bryan, she's gone. Stop pretending."Bryan turned his head back slightly and glanced, only to see that Catherine was indeed gone.His hands clenched slightly under the desk, and a faint trace of anger was on his face. He looked somewhat fiercely at David."When did I care about her? Don't talk nonsense."However, David didn't say who she was. Bryan confirmed David's guesses without being pressed.Nonetheless, Bryan's expression already scared David out of his wits. He didn't dare to retort at all.His boss looked truly scary when he got
Catherine left the alley and was about to pick up her motorcycle.Suddenly, a red BMW Z4 sped toward her and parked next to her.Catherine knew the car was here for her, so she turned to glance at it.Then, the car parked steadily next to her, revealing Audrey's smiley face."Kathy, are you very surprised to see me?"Surprised?That was impossible. However, instead of being surprised, Catherine was shocked!Catherine lowered her eyes and looked calmly at Audrey. Her cold face was emotionless.Despite how cold Catherine was all the time, Audrey didn't seem to mind at all and was as enthusiastic as she could be.She beckoned at Catherine excitedly. "Kathy, since it's your first day here, I guessed you probably have no one to have lunch with. I also studied here, and I know a great restaurant with super delicious food nearby. I came specially to take you there. Come on."Catherine was planning to skip lessons in the afternoon, as school was somewhat boring.However, by showing
Triston also noticed that Audrey didn't seem to understand what he was talking about. He pointed a finger at Branden, then at Catherine.Audrey understood immediately that Triston was talking about Branden and Catherine being engaged.In the upper-class community, Branden was the dream of countless girls. Many people took marrying the Duncans as their lifelong ambition.However, Branden was cold and didn't like to socialize with others. He spent most of his time on his work and was rarely heard to be involved with any woman.In fact, Branden was even once rumored to be gay, as there was only Triston by his side all the time.Audrey studied Branden carefully with a brief glance at him.Even though she had only taken one look at him, Audrey was almost frozen by Branden's cold presence. She looked away hurriedly and didn't dare to look at him again.Even though Branden was a great man, Audrey felt he was incompatible with Catherine. Audrey didn't know what Vicente was thinking abou
In the afternoon, after Catherine returned to her class.The class quieted down immediately. It was even quieter than when the homeroom teacher arrived.Everyone had their eyes fixed on Catherine. Some of them looked surprised, some disdainful, and some were once again mesmerized by Catherine's beauty.Despite being the focus of everyone's attention, Catherine acted as if nothing was wrong and went back to her seat.As she sat down, the discussions around her started again."How is she still here? Didn't Bryan teach her a lesson? I heard that no girl could live to see tomorrow in the classroom after approaching Bryan. Even though it has only been a morning, isn't it more than enough for Bryan to make her disappear already?""Who knows? Maybe she is skillful in her own way. I heard that she carries a curse and is a jinx herself. Her own family abandoned her since she was just a child.""Shut up! Don't let Catherine hear you. I heard she's tough and a great fighter for growing up
Just as everyone thought Bryan would get mad at Catherine and was praying silently for Catherine, Bryan's attitude left everyone in shock again.Bryan's serious expression broke into a faint smile suddenly, which made him seem more relaxed and less stern.He pulled his chair out, sat down, leaned towards Catherine, and looked at her in a friendly manner. "It's okay. We are now classmates and deskmates already. We'll become somewhat like friends when we are more familiar with one another, won't we?"Everyone was speechless. Was this the Bryan they knew?Why did he look like a playful hooligan flirting with girls?Catherine took another rare glance at Bryan, who had changed his attitude so suddenly.She suddenly felt that Bryan looked somewhat like Ronin.But he wasn't as cute as Ronin was. Besides, she already had Ronin and did not need another boy like him.If Bryan knew what Catherine was thinking about right now, he would surely go mad.After all, he was the boss that everyo
Bryan was so agitated that he forgot Catherine was still sleeping next to him. Now that she was awake, she looked cold with her brows furrowed.For no reason at all, Bryan couldn't help but be slightly scared seeing her like this. He spoke nervously, "Catherine, I...""It's so noisy!"With her brows knitted, Catherine said this unhappily, which made Bryan shut up immediately.When the mathematics teacher saw Catherine looking so casual, she grew even more disdainful towards her.As Bryan stopped talking at just a light comment from Catherine, the mathematics teacher couldn't help but grow even angrier.Bryan talked back to her all he wanted, even when she was the teacher.However, Catherine made Bryan shut up with three simple words. The mathematics teacher felt that she had been humiliated. It was as if she was not intimidating at all.The mathematics teacher rolled her eyes and looked at Catherine, speaking in a weird tone, "What is it? Is the pig awake and ready to save the
