Chapter 330
Gary’s chest heaved in anger.
He stretched out a hand, trying to grab Nicole’s wrist, but Nicole pinned him to the table with his hand at the back.
She stood up, and she looked at him, who was in shock. Gary knew that Nicole was good at self-defense skills.
Nevertheless, he had not believed that she was more skillful than him.
After all, he had never fought her. But now, the subtle pain in his hand told him to admit that Nicole’s self-defense skill was better than his. Nicole, on the other hand, showed no changes on her face.
As her gaze remained on Gary, she pondered.
She found the odd things he had spoken to her on multiple occasions annoying. “If this is all you want to say, from now on, leave me alone.” After giving Gary a piece of mind, Nicole shook his hand off.
She took her seat, wanting to stay focused on solving math problems. Gary was in disbelief.
There was a hint of embarrassment and anger on his face.
‘She’s really ungrateful!’ he snarled inwardly. But Nicole had made it clear, so he did not have the face to stay there. “Nicole, your audacity is unbelievable. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
I was a fool to even-Fine, you’re on your own now.
I’ll wait and see how much you can score in this Math Olympiad!” The hostility Nicole gave Gary had made him want to leave the café.
Before leaving, he shot a glare at Claus and said in a mocking tone, “Did Jared Johnston know you’re with this guy?” What he meant was, ‘Will he still want you if he finds out you’re messing around with someone behind his back?’ Claus was baffled.
He frowned at Gary and put on a false smile as he said, “Kid, what Mr. Johnston has in mind, is none of your business.
You can save your tracks.” He could not help but think, ‘Are kids nowadays this annoying?!” Gary’s gaze on Claus was indifferent.
He thought Claus was a server who could only talk glib.
‘Why does Nicole hang out with this guy?’ Before Gary turned to leave the premise, he gave Nicole a deep look. Outside the café, Gary was angrily walking toward the car that was waiting for him.
Suddenly, a black sedan glided into the campus.
He was startled for a few seconds before he realized that it was Jared Johnston’s car. As he saw that sedan on its way to that café, Gary could not help but think, ‘Is Jared Johnston here to catch Nicole flirting with other guys?’ He then shook his head.
‘Nicole has treated me with nothing but insolence.
So, anything that happens to her has nothing to do with me!’ Hence, instead of returning to the café to find out what had happened, Gary turned and got in the car. Meanwhile, Jared walked into the café.
When he saw Nicole, who was sitting in the corner, there was a subtle spark in his eyes, and he strode toward Nicole.
Although he took a fast pace, he did not make a sound.
As usual, he walked forefoot, so there was less friction against the ground surface.
Like a cat, he was ready to accelerate his speed anytime. Nicole was in a deep daze.
She did not even notice Jared’s presence.
It was until a familiar scent of cedarwood came to her did she look up at Jared in surprise. When Nicole thought of how she had almost completely let her guard down, she slightly raised her head, her eyes deep.
“Didn’t Claus say you had something to take care of?” Jared sat next to her.
His lips curled into a breezy smile when he heard her question.
“He said you were harassed.” “What?!” Nicole looked at Claus, who was at the counter, in disbelief.
Claus, on the other hand, waved at her in a friendly manner and even mouthed a “you’re welcom
