Chapter 727

It was rare to see the fear on the face of someone like her who had always been undaunted. But for the sake of ego, even if the person in front of her was Gary, she still brazened it out. “Did I say something wrong? Isn’t she just a village girl, yokel?”

There was a rare tinge of deep red and frostiness in his eyes as Gary looked at Vivian.

Lulu also felt that Vivian had gone too far and wanted to speak for Nicole. But since Gary had spoken for her, Nicole stopped Lulu. “Let’s wait and see.”

She would not intervene since someone had taken care of Vivian.

Gary was angry at this point. “Vivian, you went too far by repeatedly picking a fight with Nicole. Do you still want to keep your position as the class leader?”

Vivian looked at Gary’s sullen face in fright, momentarily loss of words because Gary threatened her because of Nicole.

“Why are you so protective of Nicole?” She could not stand it anymore. Am I the only one who can see through Nicole’s disguise? She’s not as good as everyone thinks.’

Gary glanced at Nicole when questioned by Vivian. An unexplained rage rose within him when he saw her nonchalant expression. Since he could not bear it anymore, he thought he might as well admit his feelings for Nicole in public. “I like her. So what?”

Everyone at the scene was stunned. Even those in the adjacent Class A and Class C fell into silence.

Vivian did not expect Gary to admit in public that he liked Nicole. The same went for Nicole; she was dumbfounded for a long while, wondering what Gary was thinking.

But Lulu and June were looking at her with a meaningful look.

“What he thinks has nothing to do with me.” Nicole felt there was nothing she could do about it. Her words sounded cruel, but it was a rejection in disguise, Everyone was surprised again by Nicole’s rejection of Gary, whose family was far more prominent than that of Nicole, which was the Riddle family.

Gary’s face looked extremely grave as if he had been humiliated in public.

Still, with a nonchalant expression, Nicole stood up and looked at Gary. “Mind yourself. Don’t cause more trouble for me, please.” She just wanted to go to school quietly and did not want to get into trouble. After that, she gave Vivian an icy look and then strode away from backstage.

“How dare you reject Gary?” Vivian looked on and muttered indignantly as Nicole left. Nicole did not only reject Gary but was also arrogant toward him. Vivian had liked Gary for a long time, and she hated Nicole for this. But as much as she hated Nicole, Gary did not spare a glance at her as he was chasing after Nicole.

Oliver saw this and nudged Vivian. “You should see reality clearly. You and Gary will never be possible.”

“Shut up!” Vivian shot her a glare and then turned to get the props. She was so humiliated because of Nicole. She told herself that she would make Nicole’s life difficult today.
