Chapter 89

Chapter 89

"Flora, regardless of any disagreements you might have with your teachers, your grades and your future are yours alone. You can't afford to be reckless."

Mr. Keaton spoke eamestly. He didn't want Flora to squander her potential.

"I understand, Mr. Keaton Flora nodded.

Having been given a second chance at life, she was more cautious and cared more about her future than anyone eles.

Keaton sighed and spent a good while trying to persuade her, then allowed her to leave.

After Carina left the office, her mind was still filled with the adoration other teachers had for Flora, which only deepened her resentment. Suddenly, a sound caught her attention. She looked over to see two people standing in the small garden.

One was Jade, and the other was Mr. Garcia. They were close together, embracing. Jade was tearfully telling Mr. Garcia how Flora had embarrassed her Carina's eyes twinkled as she stealthily hid behind a large tree, then took out her smartphone to take photos and even a video. Afterward, she quietly left. Upon reaching the entrance of Class F, she saw Aaron standing at the door.

Aaron saw her, too. His head hung low with a troubled look.

She instantly realized that Aaron had been punished and was standing outside as a consequence

Thinking it over, Carina took the initiative and knocked on the classroom door

The lesson was suddenly interrupted, and Mr. Easton looked towards the door with displeasure, which changed to amiability upon seeing Carina.

Carina was among the top ten students in her class, excelling in every subject. No teacher would hate a high-achieving student. "Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Easton. Ms. Eddison needs Aaron to come to the office," Carina politely said.

"Go ahead. Aaron is just outside the door"

Knowing Carina's reputation as a diligent student, Mr. Easton had no reason to suspect she was lying.

Carina led Aaron away from Class F, but instead of heading upstairs as Aaron instinctively started to do, Carina pulled him aside.

"I fibbed. Ms. Eddison didn't ask for you. I wanted to treat you to some ice cream."

The halls were quiet during class time, making Carina's voice sound especially clear and pleasant.

Carina had been deliberately avoiding him these days. Now that she was suddenly showing closeness and concern, Aaron felt unexpectedly cherished. He silently followed Carina.

Carina bought two ice creams and sat on the steps with Aaron to enjoy them.

"Im sorry about what happened at your birthday party" Carina apologized, "You drank so much. Did your stomach hurt afterward? I didn't expect Flora to go that far..."

Aaron's face paled at the memory of Flora comparing him to a prostitute.

"I shouldn't have brought that up..."

Sensing Aaron's discomfort, Carina quickly added, "I know you've been tight on money lately, but as you know, I was kicked out by the Irving family and didn't have much myself. Il transfer you two thousand to tide you over."

"Thank you..."

"Actually, you could ask Flora for a loan. My uncle and cousin dote on her so much, she has millions in pocket money." Carina paused, then said, "The ice cream's a bit too sweet. Are you thirsty? I'll go grab us some water."

Then, Canna ran off to the snack stand.

Aaron looked down and noticed Carina's phone, which was still on, displaying a photo.

He focused on it, which was a photo of Ms. Jade and Mr. Garcia.

Glancing at Carina, who was still in line for water, he quickly took out his phone and snapped a picture of the screen.

When Carina returned, she handed him a bottle of water and kept one for herself. She casually slipped her phone into her pocket as if nothing had happened.
