Chapter 87 Raine glared at Nicole fiercely and left in a hurry.
She got into trouble for mocking Nicole. It really was a bad day!
After Raine left, Nicole and June continued eating as if nothing had happened.
The both of them did not talk much. Nicole had a better impression of June after witnessing what she did.
She had always admired those who stood up for themselves. It seems like June was not one to submit to
oppression.
June sat opposite Nicole and ate quietly. After a long while, she suddenly said, “Nicole, that bracelet was
from my grandmother. It was the only thing she left for me after she died. I’m really grateful that you got it
back for me.” Nicole looked at her. She was not very surprised, but she was reminded of her own
grandma in Great Oak
Before she left, Mrs. Wallace Sr. gave her a lot of things. Even when Nicole went back to the Riddle’s
Residence and Gloria had changed everything new for her, she insisted on keeping everything that Mrs.
Wallace Sr. gave. She brought it to her hostel instead. The panic in June’s eyes was not a joke. That
bracelet must be very important for her. So, Nicole decided to hack into the security system and help her.
She only looked at June quietly and lent her a listening ear.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJune continued, “Nicole, all these while I’ve actually been acting cool. I’m worried that people will realize
my family background, so I chose to act that way. But now I understand that no matter how I act, the real
rich people can see through me. There will still be people who will look down on me. So, I’ve decided to
just be myself. I don’t have to care about what others think. I am indeed poor, but this 50-dollar backpack
isn’t that shameful. It is those who have no money but insist on using million-dollar branded bags that’s
really shameful.”
Nicole looked at her with deep eyes as if she had been listening carefully. June smiled at her,” Speaking
of which, it was you, Nicole, who gave me the courage to do so. You were being gossiped and bashed
on the school’s forum, and yet you didn’t care about it but just be yourself. To be honest, your response
made someone else seem like a clown. One that is fighting over something you don’t care about.”
Nicole did not expect her to understand these things. She thought that June was not one to use
social media, “I’m just too lazy to give them any attention.”
June stared at Nicole while feeling a sense of admiration for her. Nicole was never the kind to run away
from problems. She would remain calm and unafraid of any challenges. June secretly decided to take
Nicole as a model and learn how to ignore those annoying sounds. At this, June smiled brightly. It was as
if she finally decided what she really wanted. She quietly said, “Thank you, Nicole.”
Nicole looked at her without saying anything. She took out a small note and wrote something briefly.
Then, she passed it to June.
June took over and realized that it was a series of numbers on the paper.
She looked back at Nicole puzzledly. Nicole said calmly, “It’s Samuel’s number” June blushed
immediately. She did not know if she should accept it or not, but she froze. How did Nicole know about
her deepest secret? Nicole glanced at her affectionately and said, “Sometimes, chasing after what you
want isn’t shameful. There’s nothing wrong with catching feelings too.”
Before this, Nicole had never thought of doing this. But after seeing how brave June was, she began to
admire her. So, she thought it would be a good chance for June to make friends with Samuel
June looked at Nicole while thinking. Then, she looked at the number on her hand and nodded,
“Understood.”
At this moment, Nicole’s phone rang. She opened it, and it turned out to be a text message. She did not
give Jared her number, right?
But Jared immediately identified himself and invited her over to try new coffee.
No one could say no to coffee, especially when it was from Jared’s orchard. Nicole thought for a
moment. She looked at her watch and said, “Thank you for the meal, June. You should takeaway one for
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLulu as I’m heading somewhere else.” June was still staring at the number on her palms. Hearing this,
she nodded, “Okay, you can go first.”
Nicole returned her meal tray and walked toward the café near the school’s entrance.
After a while, Nicole reached the café. The monthly test was just around the corner, so the café was filled
with people. They were all students who were there to study. Nicole noticed that Jared was sitting next to
the window. Max was speaking to him at the side as if they were busy in a discussion.
Little did she know that Max was reporting to Jared about Nicole’s relationship with Samuel and Spencer.
“Mr. Johnston, about the other day at The Grove, those around Ms. Riddle were her family members.
That pair of twins are Samuel and Spencer. They’re Ms. Riddle’s biological brothers.
Jared’s brows relaxed as soon as he heard this. At the same time, Nicole opened the door and walked
in. She first looked at the counter, but she soon spotted Jared and Max’s table.
The lady’s eyes were looking good, but her face was as cold as ice. Jared realized that Nicole had
spotted him, so he automatically approached her with a smile. Max looked at Jared from head to toe,
wondering if he saw the wrong person.
Was this the cold Jared he knew of who never showed interest in any woman?
