Chapter 138: Chapter 138

Chapter 138 Noah was annoyed that Alice had slapped him, but seeing her vulnerable state, he softened. “Tell me. I’ll help you get revenge.”

He sensed she’d been through something awful.

Alice’s voice was icy. “You should ask Chloe. She’s the culprit.”

“Impossible! She was with me, looking for you. Why are you so biased against Chloe?” Biased? Alice didn’t want to engage. Tell Chloe I won’t let this go. She’ll pay.”

Noah sighed. “What happened last night?”

“Are you worthy of knowing?” She gave him a disappointed look and left. Similar things had happened in her past life. She’d told her brother, but he’d told Chloe, giving her a chance to destroy the evidence. He’d just smoothed things over. Not this time.

She went to class. The noisy room fell silent as everyone stared at her. Her phone buzzed at message from Chloe: [You weren’t back last night. There are rumors about you. Be careful!] A photo was attached Alice getting out of Jack’s car.

She chuckled. The waterDaniel showed it came from the school forum. She clicked on the forum. thread:

[Freshman Alice: Pretending to hate the rich, secretly hooking up with an older man, and skipping town!]

It claimed she looked down on the wealthy business school students but secretly fawned over rich men, sleeping with them, and then disappearing.

One post said, [I’m Alice’s high school classmate. She was always like this, but teachers overlooked it because she was smart.

She hasn’t changed.]

[Yeah, I heard she was with the school doctor in high school. Now she’s in Washington, surrounded by rich guys.]

[I saw her get out of an older man’s car this morning. He’s ugly and old. She’s a gold digger!] Alice knew who’d written the “high school classmate”

post.

Chloe.

The door burst open. Max and Chloe entered, with a few male followers. The classroom fell silent; no one wanted to cross those privileged kids.

Max glared at Alice. “You were good at hiding. I thought you got away last night.” After Jack left, she’d gone looking for Alice, but she was gone, along with her bodyguards. They’d been punished at her that morning. by Jack for bothering him. Her father had yelled Alice’s expression was calm. “What you did last night was illegal.”

“So what? The law won’t protect a country bumpkin like you!” Max was arrogant; she’d always. gotten her way.

Chloe interrupted, Alice, we’re worried about you. You were gone all night. Where were you?” She’d called Noah earlier, saying Alice had disappeared, to Alice smirked. “Where I was is none of your business.”

cover her tracks.

Max sneered. “I saw you get out of an old man’s car this morning. You looked down on us, huh? But you opened your legs for money pretty quickly.”

“Better than opening your mouth,” Alice retorted, equally vicious.

Max was stunned. She’d never been talked to like that Furious, the rained her hand to say hire Alice grabbed her wrist. “Who are you calling a bitch Her eyes were fierce, intimidating, Chloe pulled Alice’s hand away. She’d never seen Alice Vice thin Max felt humiliated. Grab her and take her out of the classroom. I have something to discuss with her.”

The guys moved towards Alice “What are you doing?” Their computer science professor entered Class is starting. Sit down” Max grudgingly sat behind Alice.

“You’re dead after claw”

Chloe watched Alice, her eyes filled with venom. Max would humlice Alice. She couldn’t escape!

The professor started the lesson. Alice took out her phone, planning to use a program to track down the bullies and make them pay. She wasn’t someone to be messed with Max saw her. Professor, Alice didn’t bring her textbook and is playing on her phone!” Alice put away her phone. The professor saw she didn’t have a textbook. Do you have a problem with my class?”

“No, I forgot my textbook. Sorry.”

Chloe added, “Alice, you always got away with things in high school, but bringing a textbooki respectful.”

Max sneered, ‘Since you’re so confident, answer the question I just posed. It’s difficult, but try explaining your approach.”

Alice looked at the problem – a coding question from the final exam, far beyond the scope of a freshman.

She went to the board and began writing the solution.

Max laughed. “Brave. You think you can solve this on your first day?”

Chloe chimed in, Alice, don’t force it. It’s okay if you can’t.”

Alice ignored them. She wrote calmly and efficiently.

The professor had thought Alice arrogant, but when he saw her code, his expression changed. In was the correct solution!

Unbelievable.

She finished and put down the chalk. “Professor, I’m done.”

Max scoffed, “Professor, did she just write random code?”
