Chapter 44
After he had consolidate his foundation, he began to deal into the much difficult problems.
Kayden's logical thinking was better than hers.
Anika occasionally encountered math problems that could not be solved, so she would go to the science class next door to ask Kayden for advice.
One night, Anika studied for half an hour on a math problem, but she couldn't find a solution.
During recess, she got up and was about to go to the next class to talk to Kayden, but Zac blocked her path and refused to move aside.
No matter how long Anika's temper was, she couldn't help but be angered by his rogue appearance.
The other party sized up her expression and glanced at the question on the paper.
With a light but strange tone, he said, "This question is so easy.Do you have to find Kayden to do it?"
Anika was still angry, and her tone was cold.
"It's really difficult.You yourself can't even solve it."
Zac raised his eyebrows after he heard this.
In his charming eyes with dark eyelashes, there was a cynical smile, "Anika, don't be a fool.If I do this later, can you promise me something?"
Anika's eyebrows furrowed as she said, "Go away! I don't know if you will find someone else to solve the problem.’
"Alright, then you can find another question and give it to me in a month.If I finish the question you set, you will agree to my conditions?"
Zac's voice was idle, so it was rare for him to discuss it with her.
Anika paused and did not answer.
Zac chuckled and said mockingly, "Nika, do you not dare to bet with me?"
Perhaps he was provoked or his aura hadn't dissipated yet.
After a moment of silence, Anika looked at him again.
"Then what if you lose the bet?"
Zac's sturdy forearm rested on the desk.
He looked at her with his cheeks propped up as he smirked.
After he paused for a while, Zac's lazy voice drifted into Anika's ears.
"Well, then I'll go to the playground and run ten laps to calm you down."
Afterwards, Anika did not know how Zac had deliberately made things difficult for her.
However, she had to agree to his conditions and made up lessons for him during recess while self- study on weekends.
Zac's results had improved rapidly, but politics was the only thing he had to do.
At that time, he said, he could not bear to read the full contents of the political textbook.
But now, he could understand the boring clauses in the approval documents like the back of his hand.
While she was retracting her thoughts, Anika curled her lips and couldn't help but praise him.
"Zac, you seem to have a lot of ...good changes now."
Zac's eyebrows were deep, and he nodded noncommittally.
His tone was ordinary.
"Oh, really?"
"Don't worry, you should be able to do so in the future."
He would eventually learn to act flirtatiously, despite the fact that he still couldn't.
Anika did not understand what he meant.
She thought that he was inexplicably showing off because of her praise and just shook her head.
On Sunday, Anika finally finished her work and had a moment of leisure.
Because she hadn't gone out with her good friends for a long time, she accepted Alena and Nataly's invitation and went to their usual tea restaurant.
In the secluded room, the dining table was covered with an exquisite and clean tablecloth.
It was also filled with delicate refreshments.
However, their conversation was not the heartfelt one between sisters, but the gossip that had happened yesterday.
Alena did not dare to drive.
But just as she pushed the door open and entered, she directly threw herself beside Nataly and said excitedly, "Natie, quickly tell me, why did Pauline run away with another man in front of all the guests yesterday?"
Yesterday, Nataly went to the Hilton Hotel to attend the engagement banquet between Gavin Austin and Pauline.
In a short period of time, the matter of the engagement had already spread throughout the rich circle of Misty Bridge.
After all, the show was too exciting.
Nataly couldn't help but feel restless in her heart.
She put down the coffee in her hand and passionately shared the information she had inquired about with her sisters.
"Kayden and Pauline are college classmates.I heard her say a few words."
"That young miss of the Arcillion family is the daughter of the their eldest uncle and his ex-wife.There are many wealthy family matters, so is the relationship between Pauline with her father and stepmother."
"This time, the Gavyn's family wants him to marry the Pauline.After Neli, Pauline's mother, inquired about Gavyn, she knew that he was always busy helping Lucy, so she decided not to let her daughter to marry him."
At this point, Nataly's drive paused.
Only when Anika casted a ‘foreseeable future’ look at her did she continue with a satisfied smile.
"As for Pauline, she already had someone she liked.Of course, she didn't agree at the beginning.Moreover, she had liked that person in college.However, the other party was too difficult to tame.She didn't catch up at that time, so she gave up.Then she went abroad to study."
"But I still think there's something fishy.Pauline went back to China this year and fell in love with him again.But like she had experienced, she felt that he was too difficult to reach, so she decided to take her medicine.’
"As she lured her first love into an affair, she dressed up weakly and went on a blind date with Gavyn.Then, news of her engagement spread quickly."
"This Pauline ...is really amazing."
Alena could not help but applaud the other party's chasing methods.
Nataly gave her a palm strike with a ‘heroic gaze’, and then said again.
"Regardless of whether Pauline's first love comes or not, she will definitely not marry Gavyn for what happened yesterday."
"It's just that the scene of a direct rejection is indeed more exciting than the fiancé's repentance on the day of wedding.Didn't you see that Gavyn's face turned dark?"
Nataly didn't like Gavyn.
She was thinking of the Gavyn's grievances yesterday, and she felt that this engagement banquet was worth it.
She smiled, "Gavyn thought that Pauline would be a good wife and mother.In the end, he was Pauline’s tool to stimulate her first love.Pauline was cheated on and her fiancé was robbed on the spot at the engagement banquet.She really made me laugh from ear to ear yesterday!"
"Thanks to Anika.She reminded me to go to the theater, those guests saw a good show for nothing.This time, Gavyn's face is in disgrace.I'm guessing that he will be disgraced at anywhere in the future.’’
Speaking of which, Nataly perfectly imitated the accusation scene ...
"Look, that's the idiot who got scolded by his fiancé at the engagement banquet and ran away with someone else after scolding her."
"You deserve it! You must have suffered retribution!"
When Alena heard this, she heaved a long sigh of relief.
"Oh, Gavyn is always being so sweet to Lucy.Who would really be willing to marry him?" Nataly was tired of talking.
She picked up the coffee in front of her and took a sip.
"In fact, it wasn't just Gavyn who was embarrassed.Lucy also couldn't get off the stage on the spot."
"The Gavyn's family accused Pauline of reneging on her marriage.They used Lucy as a shield, saying that she and Gavyn were having an affair.Pauline seemed to have made up her mind to get rid of Lucy.Now, Lucy has directly become Gavyn's junior." C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
"She also asked for it.How old is she? She even wants to have a relationship to anyone.There's something wrong with her."
Alena said angrily, as if she suddenly remembered something.
"Oh right, who is Pauline’s first love? Will she be troubled by Gavyn?"
Nataly looked at Anika mockingly and suddenly said, "Anika, you know Pauline’s first love."
Anika was slightly stunned.
After pondering for a while, she frowned slightly, "Could it be ..."
"It's that brat Harold."
Nataly finally shook off the deepest burden and slapped the table.
After taking a deep breath, her eyebrows narrowed slightly.
"I really want to speak to him.He thinks that Pauline is beautiful and rich that likes people and feels inferior.If it weren't for Pauline's temperament, I wouldn't have provoked him"
"Yesterday, when Harold left, he even greeted me. After the match ended, Gavyn came to Brandon to inquire about Harold's background”
"Heh, that’s half of my younger brother and Anika. If Brandon. dares to help Gavyn, I will break up with him “
In terms of age. Harold was half a year younger than Anika, 80 he could really be considered half of their ‘younger brother’
While she heard Nataly’s angry words, Anika shook her head and smiled, "Nataly, although you always talk about divorce, to be fair, aren't you just like Brandon's pet?"
After Brandon got married, he stayed at home all day and didn't even go to parties. Even the people from the Burks family did not dare to make things difficult for Nataly. Although the other party was Kayden's good friend, he had nothing to say to Nataly.
When Alena heard this, she nodded her head, "Yes, Nataly. Anika, this fake marriage has not even mentioned divorce. You have been thinking about the people who are preparing for pregnancy before, but not the divorce"
"I'm just saying” Nataly lowered her tone and changed the topic.
"Anika, it seems that you and Zac get along very well." Anika thought of the time she had spent with Zac and paused for a while. She smiled and said, "At the very least, we are willing to expose our relationship now."
Zac always gave her face in front of outsiders. When she returned home, Anika did not want to worry that he would occasionally get involved in tidicude and provocation. Everyone would have a relaxed posture. Nataly smiled and nodded, "It’s good to be able to come out to public. People like Zac who fell to the bottom of the valley and climbed up on their own are often harder to deal with, than. ordinary people "
