Chapter 183 You Are Really Done For

If she were a sugar baby, they would have kept the relationship a secret.

However, not only did they go public with their relationship, but the newspapers had also reported thatSmith Corporation and the Swan family’s Caerulus Corporation had reached cooperation on severalmajor agreements.

For outsiders, they thought Eileen’s father had benefited from Eileen and had firmly secured a link withthe Smith family.

Naturally, no one dared to say anything in front of Eileen.

After all, none of them would want to court death.

Yvette, for unknown reasons, hadn’t been to school for quite a while.

She still held a spot in the Olympiad Math Class.

The exam time was gradually approaching. Eileen spent her time reading an Uprian novel in her hand.The teacher who tutored her said that it could enhance her reading knowledge. It might have beendifficult for her to finish an entire book in the past, but at that moment, she could roughly understandthe content of the book.

During lunch break, Eileen ate from her packed lunch. Vera, holding a book, walked over and asked,“Eileen, how have you been these days? Last time when I went to the hospital with Eric. to see you, thedoctor said you had left the hospital. I planned to visit you at the Smith. residence, but I never had thetime. I’m sorry.”

Eileen didn’t even lift her head, flipping a page as she said, “I’m doing well. You and Eric don’t need toworry about me.”

Vera looked at the book in Eileen’s hand, filled with dense Uprian text. “What book are you reading?”

“War and Peace.”

Vera couldn’t help but feel worried. “Eileen, it’s not the time to read these books. You haven’t been toschool these past few days. I’ve taken notes for you. Here, take them and go over them!”

Eileen said, “Thank you, but I-

“I’ll leave this here for you. I have to go to my Olympiad Math Class now!” Vera said, placing anotebook down before she left..

Eileen hadn’t finished speaking yet.

In truth, Eileen wanted to reject Vera.

This time, she was set to secure the top spot in the Olympiad Math enrichment prograin.

As long as she could secure first place in the final Olympiad Math exam, she would be directly admittedto Hulbury University.

She also didn’t want to be completely dependent on the Smith family.

“Hey, Eileen!”

After Vera left, someone else appeared, and it was Albert.

Albert leaned on the windowsill and said, “I’m talking to you!”

Eileen’s voice was cold. “What is it?”

“I heard you’re with Jasper now. Is it true or not?”

Without lifting her head, Eileen casually flipped a page, circling the sentence she couldn’t translate witha pencil. “Yes. We’re together now.”

Albert glanced at Elm, who was leaning against the wall, gulped, and asked, “Are you guys. boyfriendand girlfriend?”

“Yes.” Eileen nodded.

Deep down, Eileen didn’t have much sense of security. Yet, the promises Jasper made to her were socertain that she couldn’t help but be moved.

There was someone they both loved and couldn’t let go of in their past.

At that moment, she had to let Eric go, and Jasper also had to let that person go.

He once said he would give her time to grow.

If that was the case, she thought she could give it a try. After all, life was short.

“Holy shit! How far have you guys gone? Have you kissed or just held hands?”

Eileen looked at him with a puzzled expression. “Are we close? This is our private matter. It has nothingto do with you.”

It was impossible to read a book in peace there. Eileen packed her bag and decided to head to thelibrary, hoping to replace some quiet for a while.

“What about Elm? You’ve been leading him on like a dog, and now you’re just going to cast him aside?”

Eileen’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. “Leading him on? Why would I do that? Where did you get such aconclusion from?”

With a quirk of his eyebrow, Albert extended a hand and folded a finger every time he spoke.

a sentence.

“You tutored him.”

开

“You let him copy your notes.”

“You went shopping and eating with him…”

By the time he was done, he had folded all his fingers.

As it turned out, they had done so many things together.

Eileen seemed to understand something when he pointed it out, “Isn’t it normal for friends. to do thosethings? Prior to this, wasn’t it the same with you guys and Vera?”

Regarding the matter of tutoring, Eileen didn’t know that she was the one who saved him by the seaback then. Therefore, when Elm personally requested her to tutor him, Eileen refused.

The reason for the refusal was simple. It was just because of Elm’s attitude toward her.

Throughout high school, Elm always found her irritating and would always pick on her.

That led to everyone in Class Six isolating and ostracizing her.

That was also considered one of the main reasons why she had such a solitary personality.

She was always used to being alone and being reluctant to interact with others.

The relationship between her and Elm had indeed become more relaxed than before.

People would think they were okay with each other, but they had forgotten the terrible things. Elm haddone to her over the past two years.

When Elm choked her and asked why she wanted to hurt Vera, Eileen figured out Elm’s feelings forVera.

At that time, if she had said yes. Eileen couldn’t help but wonder if Elm would have really strangled herback then.

Eileen also wondered if Albert had mistakenly thought Elm liked her, or she liked Elm.

Regardless, that thought would be utterly absurd.

Elm and Vera went to the seaside of Peach Fishing Village by themselves, living under the same roof.

When Vera first transferred to their school, rumors about those two were flying everywhere. Even theentire high school knew about their relationship.

She tilted her head, looking at Albert with a puzzled expression. “Hasn’t Elm always liked Vera? Whatdoes that have to do with me? Everything you mentioned is merely my way of repaying him for savingmy life. It has nothing to do with emotions. I’ve already made the things clear to him a long time ago.”

Eileen really didn’t understand what Albert was saying.

“Heh!”

Eileen heard a clear, cold sneer, which seemed to be Elm’s voice.

Albert glanced in the direction where Elm was punching the solid brick wall with He noticed faint tracesof blood on the crack and looked at his own hand, which had been scraped and was now bleeding.“Damn! Doesn’t he realize he could hurt himself with such a strong punch?”

Eileen observed as Elm walked past her, her attention drawn to the blood on his hands. She couldsense a chilling aura emanating from him, which made him seem unwelcoming.

Charlie walked by leisurely, and Albert shook his head. “You’re in trouble now!”

“What does he mean by ‘in trouble? Do they know about Vera and Eric being together?” Eileen felthelpless in this situation.

Carrying her backpack, she headed to the library, hoping to replace some peace and quiet to read.

As she left the classroom, she glanced at Vera’s notes, which were well-documented and easy tounderstand. “Maybe I should give these to Elm. They would suit him.”

Class Two was located right next to Class One, with seating arrangements based on academicperformance. Elm still occupied the very last seat.

Charlie and Albert had been spending time with him for more than just a day or two.

“Go away!”

The girl persisted, saying, “If you don’t stop the bleeding, it could become infected.”

“I’m telling you to leave. Can’t you understand me?” Elm, in a fit of rage, abruptly stood up and kickedthe chair away. His wild and aggressive aura was so intense that it frightened the young girl to tears.

She ran out without uttering a single word, too scared to do so.
